Backup your EFS via recovery
Then flash stock
Then flash the rom again
If you lose your imei just restore EFS backup

I don't think he has problems with his EFS. Because he only loses his signal when his screen is off.
This is a sympton of using the rom when your are on the old bootloader with an incompatible modem.
You need to flash the correct modem for your bootloader or flash a newer bootloader.

[Help]EFS Partition

Hi everybody! I have a problem with EFS partition, I'll try explain my problem on the better way possible because I don't speak english.
After several flash via odin and CMW the EFS partition is broke.
When I flash the stock ROM with odin the IMEI is there, but when I flash a Custom ROM the IMEI dissapears and I don't know how fix this!
I tried with EFS pro but print an error:
Device Connection: okay!
Root Access: okay!
Detected 'efs' Partition Location:Failed!
Error:Can't Locate Mount Point!
EFS backup Failed!
Also, before all that, I tried with Galaxy Toolbox, and I did a backup but, this backup not works. I know that because I tried restore the EFS partition on the Custom rom and the IMEI isn't appear.
Somebody can help me please? I want restore the EFS partition.
My SGY is GT-S5360L
If you need more information about my phone, just tell me.
Thanks for read!
Greetings!

[SOLVED] BASEBAND "unkown" EMEI "unkown" - EFS Backup available

Hi all,
i had to use "Clear Phone EFS" in Odin to get my 9005 back working - i thought: "Hey no problem i have multiple EFS backups..."
But now even if i restore my backup in TWRP or via the Windows Batch Backup Script, my Baseband and EMEI and EMEISV is still "unkown"
Can s.o tell me the steps i need to do, to rewrite my Baseband and EMEI with my available EFS backups?
What i have:
- EFS Professional
- 2 different EFS backups in TWRP
- 2 windows back tool EFS backups (i mean this script: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447342)
- Working WIFI
- Working BT
- Stock N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_N9005XXUENA2_OXX file(s)
- Stock N9005XXUENB4_N9005DBTENB1_N9005XXUENB1_HOME file(s)
- Stock N9005XXUENB7_N9005DBTENB2_DBT file(s)
- Odin + 9005 PIT Files
- Correct SerialNumber in DeviceInformation->Status
I'm on the new Bootloader and KitKat OS
Thank you very much for all your help!
Best regards,
Chris

On the N9005 the IMEI is no longer on the EFS partition (mmcblk0p11) but instead in some other partition - I think mainly in MS1 (mmcblk0p12) with something else (backup?) in MS2 (mmcblk0p13). There might be something else in mmcblk0p17, mmcblk0p18 and mmcblk0p19.
If you do not have any backup (including a larger "debrick backup" - search for that post) you can try to see which one of the partitions I listed above was supposed to be the backup of what; and if that fails there is a more complex procedure described somewhere in a thread on XDA - involving manually hex-editing your SN and IMEI from under the battery or the original box of the phone.

ok thank you - bad news
Ill try this guide: (Can this guide be used with KK 4.4.2 ?)

What about the "unkown baseband"? How can this be fixed?
Ok a managed it to get all back working, incl. baseband, emei etc (but you need a twrp efs backup with all 3 efs partitions --> simply a twrp backup)
If some others have the same problem, here you go:
I think some other partition was corrupted and thats why the twrp efs restore didnt worked (just a twrp efs restore).
I did following: (you need a efs backup!!!)
Folow exactly this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2567133: and do all partitions, DONT! skip the efs partitions (we have a twrp backup)
Now some further steps are needed:
IMPORTANT:
1) When you put in back your battery, boot back into twrp and restore your TWRP EFS Backup!! Dont boot in the OS!!!!
2) Then reflash with odin a stock based rom without any other checkboxes (NO EFS PHONE CLEAR, NO NAND ERASE ALL!!!!), just a normal odin stock rom flash
3) Let the phone reboot into OS and YES: Baseband working again, EMEI working again
Bro whats a twrp efs backup?
Team win recovery Project. Its a revovery and a twrp efs Backup is a Backup from the 3 efs partitions in twrp

Hi, I have the same problem as you did, my baseband is showing unknown and the imei is showing null. This happened when I was installing a different modem via ODIN. I do have a EFS backup, however, it was done with philz recovery instead of TWRP and has 4 files ('efs.ext4.tar'; 'efs.ext4.tar.a'; 'nandroid.md5'; and 'recovery.log'). Are these the same that you would get with a TWRP?
I also have another efs backup that I did which is one file only, 'efs_20140531_122400.img'. Would I be able to use this for anything?
The phone is an N9005 on Kitkat.
Thanks for any help in advance and please let me know if you need any other info.
Cheers
--------------------------
Just to let you know,
I had tried flashing flash latest full UK NF4 system before and it didn't work. However, desperate as I was, I went again and gave it another shot and incredibly enough, it worked!!!! Phone is back together again!!!! Yeeahh!!! There goes an incredible load off my shoulders. I guess I did something in between that actually helped, we may never know.
Cheerio

Hi Hundsbuah,
I upgraded my Note 3 9005 Hong Kong Version 32 GB from Jelly Bean to KitKat without taking backup of EFS and now I have IMEI Null and Baseband unknown. I found backup of other user's note3 EFS at "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447342". So, if I tried EFS restore from above link will it resolve my IMEI null and baseband unknown issue?
Regards,

If you did a backup then you should be able to restore that backup using the same method. Eg: If you used an app, that app should be able to restore the efs folder.
The problem with the EFS folder on the latest versions of Android is that it doesn't contain the IMEI, last time I checked. The IMEI is now stored in hidden partitions, which is why when it comes to backing up this important stuff I recommend Wanam's EFS Backup tool from the Play Store. Not only does it back up the EFS folder, but also backs up those hidden partitions as well as the modem..
In this instance however, Lennyz1988 I believe has the right answer.

N9005 baseband/IMEI Unknown after modem flash

Before I flashed anything i did a full backup with twrp, but when i try to restore my backup it won't restore the efs files modem and all that, just the rom pretty much and imei and baseband stays unknown, how come?
my stock rom is N9005ZTUENG1 , but when i load the file in odin(3.09,3.07,3.04) before it finishes to fully load it i get a weird chinese error and then i can't flash it, what to do?
I tried some ways that people said it solved their problem , no luck so far..
