You probably flashed something. Give us the run down of what were the last couple of things you did to your phone.

Normally I would guide you on how to fix, but since a phone shop messed it up on you it's not up to you to fix, why should you risk your warranty cause of their mistake?, bring it back and demand they fix it ASAP for free.
I bought the phone when I was in tour,more than it the knox had triggered it to 'warranty bit 1'.
Please give me a soulution !?

If no efs backup is available your pretty much have a brick.. It contains your imei sig.

Not strictly true. Lots of people have no efs back up and can restore easily.
Number 1 - there's a fore script that rebuilds the partition, which the note 3 can do.
Number 2 - Your imei is stored on your box for the device to, with a little bit of adb trickery you can restore it fine.

Yer arse, if the efs is empty then your pretty much ****ed without a backup... That imei number he has is a generic default when the system can't find the original.. Edit: however I've no idea if such a script /program can regenerate the original imei number.. I had the same problem on a galaxy S1, wiped the phone, reflashed a custom rom, bang no imei.. Had a backup of efs and had it working again, phew. Reading about the imei was a nightmare..

There's plenty of threads where people have restored efs and lost IMEI and serial numbers. - things have changed significantly since the S1 days....
amancools there is numerous threads around, search for them. I'm on my phone and searching for links is annoying.
Edit: Here's the efs fix for the benefit of poster who says "yer arse"

Came from note 2 and there is like a zip file there that will run aroma just to back up or restore efs. Is there like that here? How can i back up my efs?

You can either use EFS pro or Custom Recovery ie: Philz/TWRP .Have a nice day.
