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

Thank you for your reply
I havent done anything, I had given it to a mobile shop and they returned me the phone with no imei or baseband, I flashed it with stock firmware using odin.
Before I cant even turn my wifi on, I deleted the efs and now the wifi is working

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.

Did you buy the phone brand new? -
Download ODIN and reflash your Stock ROM completely see if it fixes it.
Take it to Samsung or if you find someone with a Z3X box or SPT tool not to sure if octopus has a full working IMEI repair yet :^)

Can you get to stock recovery and do a factory reset? If you really screwed up your EFS folder, and you don't have a backup of it, you won't be able to make calls ever again, and you IMEI number is gone. You'll have a 5.7 inch media player.
In such cases, a Samsung Service Center trip might be your only option.

Download this put in AP/PDA in odin then flash.
Just to note to people replying in this thread, this guy already has a thread open about this and has tried all the script fix tricks.

You don't need to back it up. The Nexus devices don't have the same problem samsung has.
But if you want to anyways, here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/efs-nexus-4-imei-efs-backup-restore-t2740788
The loss of the imei can usually be fixed by flashing the factory images.

Flash the factory image. If it doesn't work the first time try again. It's your only hope. I'd give up if I got close to a gazillion time though
If that doesn't work I'd RMA it if you can.

I backed it up with the EFS backup tool for the n900 but like an idiot i saved it in the internal memory of the phone.
And i did flash that rom... it was actually the last one i flashed before this happened.

Crap. i need a backup of my efs.img to fix it. it was probable that VN ROM V14 did it. the download link wasnt working for the latest one which was v14 so i digged around until i found a mirror.

Yes.
You need to always flash NE1(The file I uploaded) baseband after each rom install you do...
If you have a EFS backup prior your VN V14 FLASH you can repair this issue mentioned above.
For now you can only hope that Samsung will release more roms with the NE1 modem...

If your IMEI is same as one on BOX and message displying insert SIM card then may be it's physical issue may be damaged SIM tray OR damaged card.
Try other SIM card
Also ask your operator they have not banned your IMEI

Let's hope you have warranty that covers it.
