Hello everyone! I've lost my EFS and want to restore it, but i didn't make a backup and don't have any Z3X box and other...
That's my ask: please, can you make efs for IMEI 353314/05/548065/9 and S/N RF1D386WBOX and make backup or zip for PhilZ recovery 6.58.7? If you want, i can pay for this by paypal, but not a much)))
P.S. Sorry for my bad english.
Hi first tell us what you have done and lost your efs maybe we can find a solution

Well, i install cm12.1 by archi with wipes, kernel wipes, installing boot by archi but I didn't make a backup efs(only system, data, cashe and modem). I'm using PhilZ touch.
I don't have a Z3X box, so i can't restore my efs. In my town has no any service-center for phones and i can't buy z3x box because it's too expensive for me(1$=50 RUB). Maybe we can do like that: install efs with my IMEI and S/N to another I9300 phone with I9300XXEMG4 modem, then backup efs or make zip/tar for installing efs by Odin or recovery?
First try to go back the original version you had before cm12 and see that if your efs is intact. Do not think z3x box everytime you fail with the efs partition. It is the last thing to do...
What version was installed before cm12?
I almost did it and now my IMEI is 0049... and S/N is another
Maybe there is still valid nvdata.bin.bak in efs to restore?

Well it seems you are having a efs v2 problem. try to download official 4.3 and install and see if it is back. After 4.1.2 samsung changed the whole efs partition.

ТоТ another sleepless night...
Then try 4.3 official
Can anyone do like that: install efs with my IMEI and S/N to another I9300 phone with I9300XXEMG4 modem, then backup efs or make zip/tar for installing efs by Odin or recovery? Pleeeeeease!
I9300XXUGMK6 or I9300XXUGNA8, which better?
NA8
Oh, i forgot about one thing. IMEI and S/N is wrong, but i can switch acces point names and newtwork operators, but i can't call to anyone and USSD-codes isn't works(like *100#)
If you installed 4.3 and this happens then search for "patched modem and kernel for 4.3" and try to install them and see if you can call

Hello,
i'm new here in this forum and my english isn't that good but i hope
that someone of you can help me
I bricked my S3 two weeks ago while using swapper 2 and flashing some roms...
after a while the efs folder couldnt be mounted E: failed to mount efs (invalid argument)
and hanging in a bootloop..
My biggest fault was that I have not a backup of the EFS folder. Only
an complete Backup with CWM. But that couldnt helped me.
After trying a lot of Roms I got my phone with the I9300XXALE9_I9300OJVALE9_TMC and GT-I9300_mx_20120329 pit back to boot
normally. Android Version is 4.0.4
The Problem is that the EFS Folder is completly empty and I havent an
IMEI, so no mobile connections. But Wlan worked at home.
By the way: When i try to restore the cwm backup it will hang in a bootloop again.
Is there any way to restore the IMEI / EFS without an Backup?
I red that some persons could restore it with an other stock rom?
I'm not sure which Stock-Rom (4.1.2 probably but which exactly) I need for my Phone.
I bought it at May/13 in Germany (I'm from germany).
Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 16GB White
with 4.1.2 Jelly Bean Stock Rom
Do you need some more informations?
And please dont tell me that I'm silly, i know it already
Hope you understand my problem and maybe can help.
Kind Regards

If you follow the restore to stock guides, you may be covered under warranty. Cost of repair is minimal.
You might want to check this method for not efs backed up people...

Hello again,
sorry i had no internet access the last days.
Everytime when i try to flash a 4.1.2 Rom I'm stucked in a bootloop again :/ I'm pretty sure that I've choosen the correct Firmware.
Do you know what the problem could be?
I've not given up trying to repair my phone
Maybe my issue could be solved when I flash back to FW which was installed before.
The latest firmware is the
PDA: I9300XXEMG4
CSC: I9300DBTEMG3
MODEM: I9300XXEMG4
(Yes i know about the new efs format)
but this isn't working too.
Do you know why why I'm not getting at least a default IMEI? My Imei is always null/null
I've read about NV-items_reader_writer and qpst. Could they help me?
Greetings

I would recommend sending the device for repair.
Everytime i try to install a MG4 / MG6 ROM i get the serial number messed up and IMEI. I have to go back to a previous and use ariza patch bc of the problem with the efs folder. I even flash an MG4 Baseband, but still no luck. How will i be able to install an MG4 Rom but without having the efs problem? O knoe EFS folfer has a new format but how can i make mg4 rom recognize that new format?

MG4 ROM changes the format and MUST be accompanied by an MG2 or MG4 baseband.
If you have flashed Ariza patch though, all bets are off.
How are you flashing? Via Odin?
It sounds like your efs folder has been damaged previously, ariza patch doesn't repair the imei number -nothing can do that.
Try restoring an earlier backup of your efs folder (the one you made before you ever flashed anything) before flashing the EMG rom.

once you flash the MG4 firmware, do not flash any older f/w-s. back up efs once you flash MG4 or later f/w-s. hope these threads help you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43966399 || http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393289

Ariza only fixes SN. You've obviously got an issue there. I'm not sure what to suggest other than flashing full stock via Odin.

If you have now, a backup of EFS BEFORE MG*, I would try and flash full MG4 via ODin. Hopefully it fixes. If not, root and restore EFS and go back again..

Then I researched a bit more and flashed Android 4.3 using Odin. Android was running OK, but I got "not registered on network".
My question is: in order to fix this problem, should I worry about the IMEI? (when I did the wipe data i didn't do any backup...:silly.

Yes root it then install cwm recovery then download zip file and put it onto your internal sdcard
Then reboot in CWM and use "install from zip".
Well, guys...
I did what you said... didn't succeed. I installed those patches, but it still says "not registered on network".
I wonder if it is an IMEI / EFS folder issue... As I mentioned on the initial post, I don't have a backup EFS folder.
Should I try to flash the stock ROM (I mean, the factory native ROM) so as to try to recover the IMEI?
If so, I don't know what was the original firmware because I got this mobile from a friend.
Any ideas on how to figure it out?
Thanks in advance.

these are released after 4.3 upgrade with the issue not registered in network
Flash
I would go back to an older version of standard rom. See if that restores imei efs back to version 1. Sammy mobile unbranded uk is version 2 so use an older version than that. I have gone back to this from version 4.3 stock. If phone boot loops after flashing do full factory reset. Then check imei. If still not ok. Install kies and it will upgrade to 4.3 and imei will be back.

Koj,
Could you please post the link for the older version of standard rom? After flashing it, how can I check the IMEI EFS version? I just want to be sure I'm strictly following your tips.
Just to remind you, I got this S3 from a friend who had bought it in USA, and now I'm trying to use it in Brazil.
Thanks in advance. Greetings from Brazil!!
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9300&pcode=ZTO These are a list of Brazilian roms choose the september 4.12 version. You will need to register before you can download. To check imei go to about device then status or from phone keypad enter *#06#
After having S3 for some months, I decided to update it to 4.3.
So I searched online and saw some tutorials how to root and install costum ROMs.
I read few tutorials to be sure how to do that and after all went good and the ROM installed, One problem has rised: NO SIGNAL!
so I wiped all and installed a ROM STOCK.
After that the signal came back "half way". It's showing signal bars but I can't call to anyone, even after calling to my provider...
I just don't know what to do. Please help

That is your backup flash with odin
( When you flashed a custom rom it probably backed up your efs some roms backup by default)
I would just backup your efs you have at the moment just in case you have problems flashing. You will then be able to return to how your efs is now even though it is not fully working..
Or try this app >> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.hellcat.droiddev.ktool <<
The phone has to bee rotted to use ktool?
I also understand from the link you did about the EFS that there are two types of base bands and if I have an efs backup that I did on V1 baseband so I can't restore it on a v2 baseband, so my conclusion is to get back to 4.1.2... correct me if I am wrong

good that you found efs backup
yes you need root. or you use the recovery philz touch to restore your efs (then you don't need root, but a custom recovery).
well samsung roms based on 4.3 need efs v2, so you have to go back to 4.1.2 to restore your efs v1 backup.
if everything is working again, I would suggest you to use oding to upgrade to 4.3, because then everything should be updated correctly (but keep your efs backup, and make another one, just to be sure)
then you can try out again custom roms based on sammy 4.3
So what is the best option to restore it?
Because before I tried (while 4.3 stock rom was installed) the flash it with Odin but Odin always crashed when I was uploading it to Odin.
With kTool I tried before but when I am clicking on the button it says that it restored but he didn't asked for directory, when do I need to put it?
The same story with phliz, I also tried with this and he don't asks for directory, only asking whan the ending if the file-tar to bin...

Hmm... try installing another EFSv2 modem, then do the /efs copying part again.
Suddenly after so restarts, the IMEI got back
But... The SN now is 0000000000
You'll need to correct the permissions of the files you've copied. Try searching for someone who already did this and duplicate what they did.

Ok,
I tried something new. I flashed a new modem, backed up a full backup and then installed a costum rom 4.3.
the IMEI GOT BACK! And even the SERIAL NUMBER!
But I think the serial number is not good because he has 16 or 17 (I don't remember) digits (numbers and letters).
But still i have signal bars but can't make or receive calls he says: "No registered on network"
For the finalle, I tried ARIZA patch but he Is stuck on 0%...
here I stopped, I really don't know what to do.
Don't use the Ariza patch once you've got your IMEI and SN back. Maybe try flashing a new stock version of Android with a EFSv2 baseband so as to not go through the copying fiasco.

Ok,
I tried something new. I flashed a new modem, backed up a full backup and then installed a costum rom 4.3.
the IMEI GOT BACK! And even the SERIAL NUMBER!
But I think the serial number is not good because he has 16 or 17 (I don't remember) digits (numbers and letters).
But still i have signal bars but can't make or receive calls he says: "No registered on network"

Hey,
I flashed stock firmware on my S3 with Odin. After that it doesnt read my sim! It has no baseband and no Imei number when checked.
I have always been on official firmware, so i have no backup of my EFS partition.
I have tried to get in to the service menu via the dialer, but it doesnt come up.
What can i do?
There is a method to restore An automatic backups of the EFS folder.
The phone should be able to rebuild it from there.
Just Google for it
