Download terminal emulator from here >> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en << you need root to use this.
Then type the following exactly as you see it
su
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
If that does not work, use the more detailed commands below and don't forget to reboot after you have finished

Because it say's efs Yes this is a efs backup you can restore it with the many programs that do that...All this information you are asking is in the link I provided including programs to backup and restore efs.

Hi,
Its been a while since my last post, and I have spent the day reading about people who have the same/similar issues to me.
From the beginning, I was on Omega ROM 46.1 (4.2.2) and then -
1. Changed to OMEGA v47 without realising the modem difference/issues.
2. I then decided to revert back to 46.1 and realised I had no service.
3. I reverted back to an older EFS and got service but got the factory setting issue
4. I have tried altering the FactorySetting = On, and tried the terminal fix.. and neither have worked.
I have tried Stock ROMs, and going back to v47 but with no luck.
My EFS was from November 2012, and was the most recent back up.
I have tried the fixes using EFS Explorer and the Google terminal for this =
su
rm /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
rm /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
reboot
I not sure if I am missing something. I want to stay on 46.1, and am currently getting the factory setting fix. Apologies for the disjointed email, its been a long day! What can I do?
Cheers in advance, and any help/advice would be great!
Thanks,
Dave

Hey guys,
So basically a friend of mine was flashing a custom ROM and after a while he noticed that every time he dials he gets this message "You're not registered on a network"..
IMEI displays 00499***
After some research I've done I found out that this can be due to corruption in \efs folder, the good thing is the phone already has 2 files before this mess; which are 1. efsdev-mmcblk0p3.img 2.efsbackup.tar
I've been trying to replace the current folder with the backup one but I've failed, as system folders are read only.
I also tried to change the sim, flashing stock via odin and changing to other roms but nothing, also tried this method via terminal but nothing
su
rm /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
rm /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
reboot
Please if anyone know how to use the efs backups I've at least I have to make use of it
At least there should be some codes to run and be able to make use of such files.
Might not even be corrupt.
Read general stickies before posting new threads please. General > sticky roll-up > imei /efs - know this stuff.

Hello, long story short:
My Android-ID was different (according to titanium backup) so I decided to restore my efs folder because I've read that the ID is stored in there.. I made it with mobile terminal but it didnt work and from there my Phone rebootet and Bootloop
-> I flashed stock (didnt work)
-> I flashed stock 3 parts with .pit and re-partitioned (still didnt work)
-> in stock recovery the line /efs cant mount(invalid argument)
So then I followed this Tutorial to mount my /efs:
[Q] Failed to mount /efs (Invalide argument) and not Start
-> my phone booted but was in factory mode and my IMEI was 0049.. and my SN was 0000..
[I made a efs-backup long ago with Efs Pro 1.4.7 (a .tar file and .img file)]
-> because no program worked I restored the efs by deleting the efs folder from my phone and it generated a new one
- then I deleted everything in the folder from my phone and copied everything from my backup and put it in there -> reboot
Now my IMEI is correct and my Serial too but i still dont have signal (with a working sim)
So now what can and should i do next to fix it?
((Im from germany and I have a International GT-I9300, my baseband is ...EMG4))
Thanks
*EDIT: solved my problem with
I'm stuck in factorymode, is this related?
Yes, factorymode is caused by corrupt efs. It is possible to fix it with root and a terminal emulator.
Firstly try these commands (case sensitive)
Code:
su
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
If they fail, use the more detailed commands:
Code:
su
rm /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
rm /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
reboot
This should hopefully return you to user mode. If not, the last thing you can try, which reportedly works is to delete /efs/FactoryApp/ folder, then factory reset from recovery. This *should* regenerate the folder. Your factory mode will still need "echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode" doing though, which can be done as described above or opening the file in a text editor and changing the content of the file to "ON"

Hello friends, everytime I install a touchwiz rom im getting factory mode which disables features and gives a yellow dialogue box which is really annoying. When I install the rom the setup wizard doesnt appear too. This only happens on touchwiz roms.. ive searched google and I was able to disable the dialogue box but factory mode is still on I even went to /efs and modified the factory mod file but still no use.. and flash stock rom too... at first I thought my efs is corrupted but it isnt, what should I do thanks in advance...

The only touchwiz rom that is working is the xxugmk6 4.3 rom..
Yesterday my battery is gone ,when I put on chargher show this like on picture, and no way move.I install second firmware,root,install TWRP ,custom ROM install, always back like on picture.How I remove this anybody help?
Solution 1: Open application manager>all>factory mode / factory test > force stop.
Solution 2: You have to root your phone and install Terminal Emulator from Google Play.
Open terminal emulator and type as ;
su
rm /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
rm /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
echo -n ON >> /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chown 1000.1000 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/keystr
chmod 0744 /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode
reboot
You now should not see the that message anymore. Its because of an EFS corruption. ( Thanks to yesilcin*com) for exact solution.
Hope it helps!!!
