Hello XDA Community,
I have severely messed up my EFS data on my i337 and did not create a backup which was absolutely retarded of me. My IMEI is now UNKNOWN and I cannot fix this with EFS Professional.
Anyways...I was wondering if anyone would be so kind and could make a backup of their i337 EFS.tar and send it to me here so I can flash with Odin and fix my EFS data on my phone.
I would greatly appreciate it!!!!
Thanks!

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?

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

Do you guys think the method for reparing imei for the Qualcomm Verizon and AT&T galaxy s3 works the same way for i9505 since the i9505 is qualcomm?

I'm helping a friend to repair his Imei. He accidently formatted the efs folder.

Nope. The phone is right now an expensive multimedia player.
Let's see if we can sort it.
If it's in warranty why not just give it to service center

I have difficulties understanding how come nobody has managed to understand the efs folder deeply, especially regenerating the correct imei which is the crook in most cases. Because as i see it, the nv_Data.bin is regenerated when deleted, but the imei is in developer mode which needs to be corrected.
Where have you been xda hackers all these years Someone needs to decrypt the nv_data.bin
I haven't asked him if he can send it to service center. Probably.
oh yeah, i forgot, we have rooted it and flashed another fw. Wouldn't the service center be suspicious why the imei is broke and figure out we have rooted it = warranty void?
Yes they will. But before you take it to them there is nothing to stop you resetting the flash counter with Triangle Away (latest version works with I9505) before flashing the original firmware with Odin. If it's a genuine firmware it won't increase flash count. You will then have a stock unmodified phone with a corrupt IMEI.

After repair my phone from bad boot, as it was stuck on the attached image i repair it through kies. but now it's showing IMEI problem. it's showing NULL
That's forced download mode. First thing you need to do is flash a stock rom (preferably for your carrier) with Odin. Then, if you're lucky, you may get your IMEI back. If you don't & you don't have an EFS backup, it's either a service centre or local mobile repair shop job.

That was only for samsung galaxy s4 I9500 not for I9505.
I had this problem when I first got my s4 I flashed a ROM everything went fine I booted up and imei was null, so what worked for me was booting back into recovery and wipe everything and restored my backup and all was good again!!

No one that is smart will share their IMEI code with an other person. I would highly recommend that nobody should share their /efs backup.
A bundle of thanks dear, for nice suggestions and advice,
i hope , everyone will listen to you.

I hope they do, because nobody should share their efs.
If you don't have backup then you should get acces to a samsung box: http://z3x-team.com/
If that doesn't work then you have damaged hardware.

Happen to know a fix for this.. with no efs backup? lol
Ive been struggling for a few days now looking for a fix. I can at least use any other rom besides stock so that works for now. I'm thinkin ill just do that for a few more months and throw it at the wall or something when I have an upgrade, that's kind of what I want to do now :silly:
Hi guys!
My imei number is all zero. And i don't have signal right now! How can i change it? I have rooted galaxy s5 g900k.
Thanks
did u backup ur efs folder? or back up ur rom?
Nobody on here is going to tell you how to change your IMEI number. In the majority of the world, this is classed as illegal, as such XDA will have NO PART of any discussion of this topic.

If you didn't make a backup of your EFS partition, afaik, there is no fix (we can help you with) other than taking your phone to a repair shop

As already posted changing IMEI is illegal so unless you have EFS back up you can't be helped. Please don't ask again
