Hi guys,
this is my first post (and a noob) pls be patient.
Are there fixes for this? corrupted / missing efs files / folder??
or at least a tool or something??
My baseband are missing and my IMEI is missing.. i though maybe it's an issue with the efs (or that's what they say).
im pretty much a noob and i don't know what to do..
thanks!

Hi there,
I have a galaxy S I9000. The IMEI i have on my phone when i press *#06# is 004999010640000.
I have NO backup of the EFS folder. Sure.
However, I know the IMEI has it is written on the back on the phone.
How can i restore that?
i have to say that i tried downgrading using ODIN... phone is ok in download mode... I did a lot of research but no luck so far.
Thanks
Hello to recover your IMEI you have to flash a stock 2.3.6 ROM and then backup your EFS folder.
After installing new version, if the problem is persist then restor simply your EFS folder.
Hi Higgins91
Thanks for your answer. With all due respect, I dont think it is a correct solution as I tried it and it did not work.
However, maybe before reinstalling the Stock 2.3.6 i should have tottaly delete the EFS folder (the one with the wrong IMEI). Then the Stock "could" recreate the EFS with the correct IMEI on the phone... (thats only what I did read in another forum - But I have not tested).
Luckily I found my previous EFS backed up. (I thought i never did it, but i did 2 years ago ehheh).
Subject closed, even if there is no real bullet proff solution for that.
Thanks
theres athread in here somewhere about that sorry cant remember where read it about a year ago and if it wasnt here it was on darkyrom Q&A maybe
Hello, I lost IMEI data from my i9305 :\
Trying to fix it whole day, but I give up now, im done.
I tried several guides (sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15196) but nothing helps.
Basicly biggest problem I face is that when I dial to *#7284# it shows "Network is not avilable" so nothing happens, or with another method with removing EFS folder, after backuping it at SDcard1 I have no .nv_data file to modify it and fix everything.
I use SentinelROM v6.0, I tried installing some modified modems, but it was retarded from me. I installed one from orginal firmware today meanwhile I was trying to fix IMEI :\
Can anyone help me?
@edit
I dont have backup. Imei and baseband - unknown ;(
I also would like to add that I know my imei (have it written down :3), but can I somehow rebuild efs based on it :3?
I feel so lucky, I flashed orginal firmware through odin and everything is fine now I just need to upload 4.4 again, and make backup for future!
That was my lesson :3 Thread can be closed.
Hello Everyone! I was on ResurrectionROM LP v5.4.3. I flashed Raw kernel. I lost my IMEI and baseband. I somehow repaired my BaseBand but have generic IMEI 00499. I tried almost all things. I didnt know this could happen and so i dont have a backup of the efs folder. I dont have the original shipped IMEI folder, so this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-recover-imei-9-steps-t1264021 wont help me. I searched throughout the internet. Searched all xda threads. Tried all of them, but couldnt get my IMEI back. Can someone please help me? Is using those dongles and boxes the only way to get my IMEI back?
My problem has been solved. Thanks XDA. Requesting this thread to be deleted.

I searched all the forum but i couldn't find any result. Thank you everyone
Sorry for double posting but i searched everything last night but no result.. There isn't any way on S3 Mini to touch the IMEI number except of with any box (z3x,octopus etc) ?
Hi folks!
I am a newbie in here. I have a G610Y phone and when I installed new stock rom I lost efs folder. Now my imei's unknown, baseband null and RIL not working after all.
Can you show me a way to solve this. I do not have money for new one.
Thanks.
Please help me
Help me please, maybe you can share your efs backup without imei's. I can copy it to my phone.
