by changing imei? how does that 2 make connection?, i think efs partition has no connection with knox, as it is integrated everywhere.

It's same for my Huawei Nova too.
Earlier I've just seen on Huawei website the possibility to check the warranty and I had to enter the IMEI. Then I've been told when the warranty expires and it corresponds with the warranty certificate from shop.

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?

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.

I got this I9500 international phone and my LCD display has a pink line across it now.
Samsung USA said they are not covering the warranty since it is an international phone. I need to know where the phone is made so maybe I can contact the Samsung international to fix my phone.
Does anyone has any idea what to do with this case??
Thank yoU!!!!

IMEI can be found under your battery. Do not think of altering your IMEI as this is illegal.
Please also use the Q&A section for questions next time, as this section is for general discussion.

I am not trying to fake my IMEI, I am just wondering if the IMEI code contains where the S4 is made so I can try to contact there to get my warranty covered..

If you are still on stock firmware check your firmware version.

There are 4 ways to check imei.
1. Checking imei within Android (Dial *#06#)
2. Checking imei within Android and select apps, settings, more, device info, status
3. Removing battery and check the sticker
4. Check the galaxy s4's box
You can check CSC Code of your phone. If you haven't modified it then.
Check the CSC with *#272*IMEI#
And check country list from here.

Hi.
I contact the sav. They check my phone and detect that knox warranty was void and rooted.
So no warranty, i ve to pay about 100€ to repair !!!
The problem is that my efs partition is break, ive no Imei on my phone.
Do you know if there is a solution to restore my efs without to ask to the sav ?
I précise that i ve only access to my phone in Odin. Not detected under Windows. No boot possible.
I ve made a backup of my efs by twrp but dont know if possible to use it. Restore by twrp dont worked.
Thanks
Your english is horrible. How did u lose imei? You should've backed up the efs as soon as you rooted.

I think this is not applicable in this case.
The maker is only responsible for things that are his fault.
AFAIK the maker can not be held liable for something the user broke himself.
If you drop your phone and the screen breaks, then there is no obligation for the maker to fix it for free under warranty.
In the same way, if you overwrite the bootloader or EFS by accident and bricked your phone, then it is your own fault.
Another case would be, if the home button just fell off. In that case it clearly has nothing to do with the software modification and so the maker can not refuse warranty on be basis that the software has been modified.

I had a case on my Note 10.1 N8000 where the partition efs was deleted, yes the partition, not the contentes and I arrived to solve my N8000.
See here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2204960 on post #4.
But look, this command and efs partition can be different or impossible on Note 3. Speak whit a Note 3 DEV. first.
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
PS: On Note 3 the efs partition is mmcblk0p11.
Good luck

Any way ... I agree whit You.
Oh well. This sort of thing is always a risk when rooting. You lost out this time.
You might be able to get it done cheaper if you find a mobile phone store with an octopus box but then maybe this phone is too new to be supported by that option.

I am aware it is illegal. I am not asking how to do it, or if I should and not saying that I will. Simply asking if an imei can work on a different device.

Yeah, it can work on a different device, obviously don't do it.
The consequences can be severe if caught messing with the device's IMEI #

As I said, not sure where or how but it changed it. I only realised it when I was selling it. This guy buying it checked the imei from the dialpad. And it didn't match the box or the back of the phone.
I installed BTU Lollipop for him before selling.
It was N910F European one.
Now I just got N910C Arab one.

Yes, I definitely will not be doing it. No worries. Disregard anything I said before, this is simply research for an emulator and android app I am developing.
Qualcomm devices are prone to getting the IMEI corrupted, my Qualcomm Note 3 kicked the bucket that way after some custom ROM experiments. Exynos variants are much less susceptible to this, so I grabbed a N910C this time 'round
For those curious: Qualcomm NV tools can save your device's IMEI and CERT - these absolutely _must_ be paired to access a mobile network. You can backup and restore IMEIs this way, note that installing another device's IMEI and CERT pair is highly illegal.
Even Samsung repair shops don't transfer your old IMEI when swapping motherboards (because doing so would be a violation of the GSM spec) - they give you a new sticker!

Well, by that logic, as long as you have the imei sticker, put it in your phone in place of your old sticker, and change to that number, you will be fine.
If only there was a tool to do this. Can't seem to find any. Oh well. : (

Samsung is testing samsung pay in Korea and one of testers found out that s pay isnt working if knox is tripped. Attachment photo is screenshot from Korean tester in Korean android development community.
Noooooooo! I guess I'll be heading to my carrier store and try to exchange for a new Edge.
Thanks for the heads up, luckily I still have mine not tripped
that is so FAKE !
if it' in Korea, why is it in English ?

I think it's because the app is still in development. The one who posted that photo even showed text from Samsung that he got chosen as a tester few days ago. Koreans can read English btw.

Q:Will I be banned from using my card to pay? Will Samsung pay be global standard for future mobile payments?

I'll be more than happy to run the device the way I want it than bother about Samsung pay..it takes same amount of time to insert your card and enter a pin...IMHO

Knox is a hardware fuse. Once tripped it can't be reverted via software..having said which once the Samsung pay app comes out there will surely be a development to make it work with Knox tripped devices..if that's not possible I'll remove my card and flash my card as usual..
