Deleted folder EFS and the backup EFS files

Hello
One user here in the CZ came to a complete folder with EFS and backup files.
Telephone module, therefore, does not work.
Is there any solution?
Thanks

I think you may need to send it back to Samsung - you need the nv_data.bin.md5 file in /efs to get the correct IMEI number for your handset - without this I don't think you can get your IMEI back?
And please don't post requests for help in the Dev forum either, k?

Please let me know, if is any solutions.
SG2 shows unknown IMEI, no signal.
Everything else is OK.
Thanks for your reply and help.

No solution if you wiped EFS and have no backup of EFS .
Return phone to Samsung for repair .

And what about nv_data.bin from another phone ? IMEI collision ?
Return phone to Samsung for repair - its another option to change mother board or not ?

If you have no backup, that's a warranty job, and they will likely decline to fix under warranty since it was caused by user stupidity.

That may end up before the courts of law as IMEI manipulation is an offence .

Doesn't help. You need the actual matching files from efs.

There are people who know how to generate correct nv_data file
It can be done with i5700 and with i9000, I guess i9100 won't be so different

[Q] Solution for IMEI and SPC.

From time to time, I come across some interesting situations ... I did an update on the ROM. I'm there are many days without sleep, because I can't change the IMEI of my "LG e612f". I've tried Terminal Emulator, Root, Update many ROMs, etc .... Downgrades Anyway, I used all my knowledge on Tools QPST and nothing works. Rewrite IMEI in Qualcomm Tools, SPC requires sending with its 6 digits, which I do not know!! I am in search of a solution, since the model there is no EFS folder.

Hi man. People keeps telling you to install new modem, kernel etc...but i think you have corrupted EFS folder.
I hope you backup your EFS folder before flashing ANY rom because, otherwise you will have to go to some repair shop.

Well, I don't understand a lot, but I think you could check if you didn't lost your IMEI. Go on Settings > About Device > Status and check if your IMEI still there.
If it is, I don't know what could be. You could try flash another modem or restore a backup (if you have one) with PhilZ Touch but if it isn't, that means you lost your IMEI. I remember I read about that somewhere, that there is a risk of losing IMEI when you flash a lot of ROMs.
If you have backup from your IMEI, just restore it. If you don't, I don't know what you could do, but I guess you could still do something.
One more thing: Wi-Fi works?
Like I said, I don't understand a lot, so everything I just said may be very stupid. Or not. Sorry for bad english.

Before giving an answer we're going to need a little more information. What steps did he do prior to losing his IMEI, did he flash a custom rom, custom radio, or did it just magically vanish?
