IMEI 0049 - I have a backup... - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
i fu***d up my I9300 (unbranded).
I had the problem that there was an unknow IMEI and Baseband.
Then i restored my EFS partition with a root explorer.
After getting the factory mode fixed i was happy to use my phone. (Had to type in my PIN)
But now i have a 0049XXX IMEI... How to fix this without buying this hardware box?
I have an IMEI-Backup (tar.gz)
Please help me!

Please read general > sticky roll-up thread > imei / efs - know this stuff.

samsung galaxy s3 imei lost fix

Hello
Here is a simpe fix for lost imei
Just use odin to flash to xxemg4
I just figured out that the modem in leaked version of 4.2.2 replaces the imei
If you still want to have the new android flash it with mobile odin and deselect modem so the imei wont be replaced with 0049....
Read general > sticky roll-up thread.
All this is covered in the imei thread

Glad the fix is that simple looks like rootSU has been leading us up the garden path with all these guides .

IMEI

Good morning everyone!
I'd really like to know why installing a custom rom can delete or modify the EFS folder ....
And also why the IMEI of the device is stored in it.
What developers are doing to make it happen???
I did not backup this folder and even if he had done believe it would do.
The folder can not be deleted, nor overwritten ......
I always thought that the IMEI was written on a chip can only be read and not written.
Look my search results about IMEI here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=222446237
And here too:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=222446965
This is absurd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I lost my S3 last week and would like someone to explain to me why this happens .....
Can anyone help me???
I know that many people will read this post looking for a solution to the same problem, but I can not help.
I hope the answer of "developers".
And I hope to see here "indie" and also the "Kryten2k35"
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Read the stickies/RTFM.
Why is hard to say because all this text contains no specific details. Best answer, read the imei / efs thread in general > sticky roll-up thread

Modem change breaks mobile data.

Hey guys, this is my first thread on here so i'll try to be descriptive.
i'm running an i-9300 international in the UK. I recently changed to omega rom and it's been working great but unfortunately my speeds on mobile data are horrendously slow even on H+. my wifi speeds are better than ever so i've surmised it's not connected.
after some research i found out the modem for my network (tmobile) is I9300BVEMF1 i flashed this and afterwards the phone doesn't recognise my sim.
I flashed it back to the previous modem and it works but slowly.
On stock it works much better. Is there anything i can do?

Well what modem are you using. Please ensure you are using XXEMG4 or above modem.
Read the efs 'know this stuff' thread, it may not fix your problem if you didn't back up your efs folder first -but it contains the reason for your problem and the only answers.
Duplicate question asked many times before.
