Hello all,
first to all who will say I must read the forum for problem solving - I did but from all the info out there it was simply too much. So I decided to start a thread in the hope that somebody will be able to help me.
So I have a corrupted nv_data.bin in my /efs folder but I still have backup of this file. But only this file.... I know - totaly dumb... I installed new JPX and after trying to change the product code from KOR to MOT (Slovenia) I accidentaly deleted nv_data.bin. I of course tried to replace it thru Astro Mate (I did had rooted phone - Darky's 6.0 was working fine ) but everytime I tried copiing this file tt didn't copy actualy - It said copied but the old file remained there - I know this because the Productcode didn't change. So I deleted the file thinking that this will help and tried to copy again. To my bad luck it didn't. I tried to copy and everytime a new file was created instead. also renaming a bakup file in this folder was not succesfule - it said Fald to rename file nv_data.bak. Since then my SIM card is not recognized and when I check what Baseband version I have it it written Unknown. So I tried even with ADB Shell, use busybox and when I eneter cp /sdcard/nv_data.bin /efs it says Now enough free space??? So I don't know anymore what to do. Does somebody have an idea what I can try to solve this? Please please please? I will donate to the one who helps me saving my SGS.
Thanks,
Borut
Hi !
This is because the file is used by the system.
Safest method:
- Reboot into recovery (make sure you have root in recovery)
- do what do need to do in recovery
- Reboot in normal state
In recovery phone / baseband / RIL are not started.
so you mean when I boot in recovery i can copy the file using adb shell? Or how do you mean I can do what I must do?
I have done it before while the phone is on, but you have to enter flight mode, set the correct owner and rights and reboot afterwards.
Well, regarding ownership and stuff like that - I'm a tootal noob
Help please NV_Data.BIN

Please help -
I am not sure what to do now. I changed the rom on my phone to put 2.2 on it a while back. I never saved any of the files because I was not aware to. Now I am trying to go back to stock already used the one click Odin program and I have the original stock firmware on it. But when I try to update via kies mini it will not show up. I have searched And found multiple postings related to the fact that the product id and imei could be incorrect and you would need the original nv_data.bin file. I have searched through windows explorer on the phone but can't seem to locate one. Is there any way that I can get a copy of the original folder for /efs/nv_data.bin and any other files that are needed?
I have the Samsung Captivate on AT&T currently running 2.1
BaseBand: I897UCJF6
Kernel Version: 2.6.29 [email protected] #2
Build number: ECLAIR
You need to check your IMEI matches your original .
You have stock rom stock as in not the network supplied firmware that came with the phone ..
Windows explore is no good you need something like root explorer .#
I can get a copy of the original folder for /efs/nv_data.bin and any other files that are needed? Not unless you saved them they are phone specific .
Worth doing a factory reset before you make any step as that may solve your problem .

how do I check the original imei? I didn't backup the files as I was not advised to in the information I found online at the time (couple months back). I have done a factory reset via the phone (privacy settings) a couple times now and still when I plug into kies it tells me Unregistered device.
This is very simple to fix if you have nv_data.bak in the EFS folder.
If that file is present then you can safely delete nv_data.bin and reboot the phone.
A new nv_data.bin will be generated.
how do i know if I have nv_data.bak? where on the phone would I find it and how?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It should be in the efs folder (unless you've done something to delete it). As said by JJEgan, you will need root explorer. Navigate to it in the efs folder and copy it to the external sd card and then keep it safe somewhere.
how do I check the original imei?
Its on the box and or with the receipt .

hello ,
Am using galaxy ace and i want to change the default app icons [like My files gallery...etc].I downloaded a copy of my firmware and i was able to extract system.rfs from the md5 file which contained the apk for the music player...etc using 7z,i changed the icons to my custom icons...now I am not able to move the system.rfs to the MD5 file using 7z...does any one know anyway of doing this
P.S Does editing the files do harm when flashing...will this be succesfull?
If you edit rfs files on pc then its corrupted
So make changes in the apk and paste it in /system/app
You can make a new rfs fine too but that needs root and and the need to know which partition is mapped to /system
so can i just place the apk directly on phone through root explorer...but i tried that with an system app [you tube] i dont use ,i changed the icon and placed the apk using root explorer...after that it vanished..i tried rebooting and installing the apk....but it wont install...
I was cleaning up my SDcard and renaming some files in the process. during this, I forgot that "&" is a no-no when naming files (using Doobloo file manager) and try to rename a video using it.
the problem is that, since then, I can't find the file anywhere. I tried using ES explorer pro and plugging the device on a PC, but no go.
now, I know that the file is there, just unreacheable (adding a & to the name would not delete the file, right?). How can I find it and rename it properly (since it is probably just taking up space this way).
My Device is a Galaxy S4 from Vivo, Brazil (GT-I9505)
So, I've gone through the tedious task of rooting my Note 4 and I'm familiar with editing the feature.csc file back when I had my S4. When I make any edits to the file and save, no back up file is created and the changes are actually saved. I'm using Root Explorer to edit the file. Also, when I try to rename the file, it's fails. Hope there is something I'm missing to get this feature working again.
for the time being you can copy and paste it to another location as a backup
Hello everyone, I wanted to open a new thread, maybe others like me found themselves in the same siditura, that is, to be able to extract a saved file, backed up with TWRP the file in question, was initially saved in.snb format, file an app. pre-installed on the S3Neo, and it's called SMemo, the file contains sensitive data and password, you will say but because it does not restore the backup, if you want, but the saved one there are data that are not in another file, I made two backups , with the data inside, are in various formats, some I add immediately after, now what I ask, you can find that file and extract it using a PC with windows7 system, thank you in advance.
