And recently I've flash a Revolutionary s5 v3 rom.
And my imei is still 0049 but the serial number is changed into something. But this serial number doesn't match my serial number at the back of my phone.
I have a backup of my efs folder manually. Exactly the efs folder, I've copied it to my external sdcard.
Search and read, hundreds of identical threads.

help pls
Hi. I flashed the i9300 Android Revolution HD 16 rom and while network and IMEI is fine.
Serial number seems to be all zeroes. In fact, my stock rom, doesn't even show the serial number, at least not in the same place.
On a custom rom (ARHD 16 4.1.2), it shows zeroes.
I tried flashing stock 4.1.1, doesn't show S/N.
Flashed stock 4.0.4 ICS, doesn't show S/N.
Is there a combo for S/N like *#06# for IMEI?
Does this thing simply not have a S/N, it is the korean 3G.
How do I fix this? Thanks.
Hi, today I flashed the stock rom after I tried the Paranoid Android Rom, then, after the reboot, I noticed There were no Signal.
Looking for some forum, I've seen the problem should be the EFS folder corrupted.
Because I didn't backup the folder without flashing, there is a way to fix it or the only way is to bring the phone to the Samsung assistence? I think it's no more in warranty, isn't it?
What if I backup an EFS Folder from another N7100? Should it work?
I tried this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159267) but in my nv.log there isn't anything like "MD5 fail. orignal md5 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' computed md5 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' (rild)
where the X's are a bunch of number and letters.".
Any Ideas?
In the home there is a window black with the words in yellow:

What's it?

Can be this the problem?
No two phones have the same IMEI. So, no! Restoring another IMEI won't fix.

I have the same problem with my I9100. How you fixed it? I don't have any EFS backup.
Same problem for N7100
I have spent a whole week searching for a solution for the same problem
All the posts I have seen are useless and I reached nothing
Is there a correct solution for this problem?
I have this generic IMEI for my n7100
This happened to me after receiving the OTA update for Note 2
My phone was running the official stock rom 4.1.2
I got the update OTA, installed it then afterwards I lost the network
I searched online for a solution and found out that it has something to do with the IMEI
I opened my IMEI number to find out that it is this generic number
What to do please ?
My phone is out of service for a week now
I have same problem now.
Please someone tell the solution to this problem. I dont have EFS backup.
I have a S2 phone, out of warranty was bought from Spain under the Vodafone carrier. So is not stolen/imei blacklisted or other stuff i saw around.
Was bought by a good friend of mine, now he upgraded to S3 and his old S2 went to me, i think it was rooted, had superuser and acces to /efs/.nv_data.bin. to copy them from /device to /sdcard and also had busybox installed.
Phone shows even the airplane (with ariplane mode off) or the circle with the / inside and IMEI pops with " null/null ".
I did try GSII_repair and unlock software while i had the 4.1.2 software instaled as it came (from my friend) but no use.
I did try to get the nv_data.bin file with a hexedit and search for the 181468 (if i'm not wrong) line for the FF 01 00 00 00 stuff and change the 01 to 00, ofc nothing found about that line. Also between the .bak and .bin file since i remember was no difference at all.
I did try another method to search in the nv_data.bin for the SGH thing about the serial number, again without finding anything.
I tought a stock ROM will help, so i found a tutorial and with Odin3 v1.85 i've put this rom GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XWLP7_I9100XXLPS_I9100XEULP5.tar.md5 with the pda button. Of course the phone turn on and freeze on the S2 logo, than went on MENU+VOL Up+power, and did a whipe and turned on the phone. This went to 4.0.2 with :
Build nr.: IML74k.XWLP7
PDA: I9100XWLP7
CSC: I9100XEULP5
kernel
3.0.15-I9100XWLP7-CL340913

Again *#06# and babam, IMEI nothing there.
So i did upgrade again to 4.1.2 I9100XWLSE_I9100OXELS6_I9100XXLS8_HOME.tar.md5 with oding on the pda tab and now shows:
Build nr.: JZ054K.I9100XWLSE
kernel
3.0.31-889555

CSC:I9100XELS6
Baseband unknown, Imei unknown but now shows something for SN, this: SN: 00195ef068dfae.
Also found some codes *#7465625# -wich shows nothing and than when i try to enter service menu for debung and stuff also shows nothing.
So found another tutorial to add 3 files in Odin, the PDA option (that i used 2 times) and the PHONE and CSC options with 2 more files to upload. I will download, try and post back.
Thanks in advance for any1 wich reads/reply/helps or talks on this theard.:good:
p.s. I tried a soft called SRS with 3 free options to change null imei to 0004999 or something and it tells that phone is not rooted in this moment, and he might be right and here cames the qestion, while you change ROM you lose the root and su because if not, than means phone was not rooted, but hard to think at that because i could acces the /efs folder. Complete mind**** here....
edit: i did try that rom 4.1.2 with I9100XXLSJ_I9100OXXLS1_OXX with the 3 files below
pda: CODE_I9100XXLSJ
csc: CSC_HOME_OXX_I9100OXXLS1
modem: MODEM_I9100XXLS6 Still no baseband/imei and yeah for sure phone is not rooted now, should i root the phone and than .... try what? throw it on window / use it as ipod device ?
edit: found what is suppoused to be my original fimware Latest firmware from Spain / Vodafone carrier (ATL)... i will try to flash it with odin and see what happens.

You do that.
You're looking for a EFS folder back up, check out ktool to see if you can recover the IMEI.
Also call your friend and ask him how the IMEI got lost and if he backed up the EFS folder at any point.

Thanks for your answer and support.
1. This stupid problem came out of nowhere and he did not had a backup on anything.
2. Found out the device was not rooted when that happen (4 days ago) and his bigger brother tryed to use suroot and some tools like ktool or something and another useless tool, and that was the moment when he created the backups.
3. So backups were created after, phone was not rooted when it happen, no backups at all. Now i've put the 4.1.2 baseband, rooted the device, installed jeebo kernel, did try some Dalkvin wipe from cwm but still no result, when i got the phone had no serial number at all, and i don't know how i managed by swamping from rom to rom to get a SN like 00195ef068dfae, this is not the SN but make me feel better than a empty SN field.
I guess that Z3X box would do miracles, but in my city (Brasov, Romania) no1 has one at workshops, found one for about 120$ but at around 100$ i can get a MB to swamp...but still i can not afford that at the moment...
Did try Ktool/gsII_repair and efs repair (chinese verison smthing) without any result like the 3rd time but now with my own root and cwm and stuff. This is another backup made with ktool 5mins ago http://dl.xda-developers.com/attach...5454/2/1/3/5/1/7/5/EFS_Backup_with_K-tool.zip
Also managed to use EFS pro, did a backup, tried to repair baseband/format efs... nothing works
When i try now to repair emai /baseband-again, show an error about mounting /efs

A friend asked to replace the screen on his i9300 as i've done a few before,
The phone was fine until after I fitted the screen, no signal, looked at the imei its null with baseband unknown. the phone was working before I changed the screen as he was using the phone when he come to mine to drop it of.
now ive spent three days trying to fix this phone, with no luck. being reading many threads all over the internet about upgrading
the rom etc. still the same tho.
I managed to get a cheap z3x box on line, but that cant fix this either.
here is a log from z3x

Weird if just changing the screen corrupted the efs but irrespective how it happened you need a backup of the efs folder to restore. If you don't have a backup then service centre required.
If you have a box then read the dead boot thread in general forum, the later stages might work.

No efs back up.
what you mean by if I a Box? what box?
ive looked for the dead boot thread but cant find?
I've cp unknown now too.
Is they any links for i9300 firmware that is mg5 please? And mg2 modems please?
I really need to fix this i9300
Also if I post my efs backup from the phone can someone check it to see if it's missing any needed info?
