1. Check this thread
2. They won't be restored. There's a way you can make a backup of your TA partition here.

efs folder

Hi all,
Just trying to find out where the efs folder is on xperia z c6602. I used root explorer but do not see it. I just want to make a back up of it. Thanks
This is a folder created by the rooting method. At the end it is deleted automatically. You don't need it.

So just to be clear, I already did a back up of my ta partition so my era folder/imei number is saved? If any problems,just do a restore of my ta partition?
Yes your vital information is now safe. If you performed TA back up before unlocking bootloader your DRM keys (needed for Bravia engine) are also backed up. So you can now unlock bootloader and flash ROMs, safe in the knowledge that you can go back to stock and restore TA (which will also relock bootloader), so it will be as it was originally.

Thanks. I just wanted to be sure cuz I flashed a Rom on my gsm nexus s and lost my imei number. Don't want that problem again.

Relocked bootloader

I picked up an HTC One that turns out has had the bootloader relocked. Is there anything special I need to know or do to unlock it and root again? I've previously used qbking77's method of unlocking the bootloader. Thanks in advance for your help.

[Q] Anyway to Unlock Bootloader and keep all data?

Hey all, I am having an Xperia Z C6603. Wondering if there is anyway of unlocking the bootloader and keeping all the data I currently have.
I have already rooted my phone and installed TWRP. Still using stock ROM
Any help or advice is appreciated.
Thank you.
Follow sonys unlock guide where you get you unlock code from using the command prompt way, just remember to take ta backup

First time you unlock, no. It is not posible to keep your DATA partition.
Subsequents tries using flashtools, it will not erase anything.
So the solution is to make a NANDROID backup, unlock the bootloader, and then restore back

Bootloader unlocking?

If I do a backup for ta partition and unlock bootloader then flash Romaur'S rom. So will my camera work or after flashing the rom then do I have any option to restore ta partition and camera will work on unlocked bootloader

No it won't. There is also no need to unlock the boot loader to install that rom
