Do you have a nandroid backup of your system? I lost baseband and imei recently, and I restored my backup, then I got baseband and imei back.
That's all I have, sorry, I'm not an expert in these things. Hopefully someone can help out.

Hi
i was a happy customer with my SII, which i brought from india, everything was fine, until a week back, when suddenly my SII shows no signal, no IMEI and no baseband
i didnt flashed or changed anything ...
1. i tried using different SIM - no use
2. this sim works in other phones
3. factory reset - no use
4. all is done...
**** I DONT HAVE A EFS BACKUP ***********
please give me a detailed fix route for this issue. as i cannot take the phone to INDIA in next 4 months to get is repaired. i have my warranty still. but thought that something can be done from my side to get it fixed. please please lemme know how to fix this! :-(
I had this happen to me. I hadn't taken an efs backup and thought I was screwed, but I found an auto backup on my SD card called EFS_BACKUP. Check if you have this, if you do, use GSII_Repair from the market to restore it.

If your EFS is not total screwed and your nv_data backup is valid its possible GSII_Repair from market will work for you ...

I tried already flashing the Stock ROM once, and hence i dont know whether there is still a backup of EFS is in place....
can anyone take a little bit more time in explaining the steps to solve this,
like does a backup from another gSII will help the purpose... ?
please let me know more details, i will be thankfull like anything.
How come this problem happens, when we do a complete flash does the EFS folder get replaced or the the flash doesnot affect the EFS part at all?
i feel its very strange to see such kinda problem..
buying Z3x isnt a good idea
Z3x-box sa
msung - 169USD
Z3x-box LG - 169USD
Z3x-box 2in1 (sam+lg) - 299USD

what you call its as total screwed??
Will a backup from another Samsung Galaxy SII work ? for me?
EFS is a folder would be having NV_data and some other files. he's asking that the entire EFS got screwed or just some parts.?
I tried complete flash, means baseband,Kernel and system including User data reset.
i really confused about the relationship between the EFS folder and the IMEI,basband, blah blah...
EFS folder is nothing to with your blah blah nor your modem /baseband .
It is essential the details of the phone and its sole identity that is signified by the IMEI number individual to each phone . This IMEI number is used in the initial handshake each time you make a connection .
Lost or stolen phones can have their IMEI blocked once on the block list handshake is denied by the networks = no connection .

GSII_Repair tool from Market, Four steps in that tool, am Done ...........all is well now.
Really really helpful tool. Thanks to all who suggested this TOOL ;-)

u mean is that a nw problem? nothing to do with the phone?
its really p***d off me for fixing that issue..
handshaking happens only after the phone detects the sim card. but here phone doesnot detect the sim at all. so is ur point still valid?
my phone was brought from samsung authorized dealer so how come its possible to happen so?
looks like EFS is the area where full flash no longer having access to it!! if not then a complete flash should have sorted that out.
EFS are reference files containing the imei and phone unique info, when these files gets corrupted, then phone will b helpless.
though u have root access u'll never get RW permission inside the folder.
there should be a automatic recovery, the SW should have had in place if there are corruption. poor implementation.... bah...
helo,
i am using samsung galaxy s2 GT-i9100
i flashed cm9 before and then i flashed samsung europe stock.
and now i see, my imei number has been changed.
can anyone help me to revert or change imei again!
Problem i am facing:
1.) call , message not allowed. (Gprs is working fine)
when i call, it says error "Mobile network not available"
i think its becuase my imei is changed to some europe imei now.
i want to get my real imei back , to make calls etc.
so, can u suggest me things to do?
did you make any efs backup? if you did then just restore if not... then it will be really difficult... there is few threads about it around somewhere in this forum ( seen it few times ) use search and i wish you good luck
ps. next time install ktool from hellcat and backup efs

Hi guys,
I've messed up and need help. Here goes...
I had a locked phone on the 3 network , a S3 I9300; and I wanted to unlock it. Simple I thought to myself.....anyways, I downloaded the voodoo unlocker after rooting successfully with Odin. Nothing happened it wouldn't read my T-Mobile sim card and I can't remember what I did exactly but I did press some buttons on that app in attempt to unlock the sim. I then realised that it was not compatible with the S3 and then I proceeded to use the GalaxSim app. I had to download busybox for that, after doing that I attempted to unlock it. Yipeee! Phone unlocked and everything green.....but not. I still couldn't register on any network(using manual method as well). I had even cleaned my SIM card(but not tried another sim card). I then unrooted the phone with stock rom and unrooted again to use GalaxSim......and pressed backup accidentally! That I means I am now with an unlocked efs folder as my default efs, I didn't check the IMEI number to see if it changed, but how I return it all to normal? Has my IMEI number changed or would it not show IMEI if I overwrote the EFS folder?
I need help, I'm confused.
What phone you post I9100 ?????
No or broken EFS then just restore your backed up EFS .
jje
sorry i9300.
No, the EFS I had was overwritten with the newer version when I reinstalled the app. Now I have only one EFS and that's the one currently installed(which says the phone is unlocked). The phone is not registering on any network. Is this a baseband issue or a unlock issue? The app is showing unlocked, it shows all the networks, but some are written as"forbidden networks" and I can't connect to any.
By the looks of it, the simlock will never return.

You cannot update an EFS with a newer version you can only restore your original backed up EFS .
Does the IMEI match that under the battery if not its a service centre repair .
jje
Oh and the platform is jellybean.
The imei is the same, but it is still "sim unlock". How can i redo the process?
your phone should be fine you restore your original imei or just copied your origanal imei again probaly for the best as you know you have a back up of it now
chances are your phones unlocked now and probaly just need to register the sim card with T-mobile to activate it
should always place the back up of your efs somewhere else aswell incase things do go wrong mem cards can corrupt
Both sims that i've used are contract. I can't register any. They all say disconnected on status settings.

You are breaking them on purpose then. It's against the rules to bump your thread more than once every 24 hours, you did it not even after half an hour
