Don't worry, it's just an error of reading it. Your phone still has its IMEI, LOL
It's so important for you having it written and shown in Settings -> About phone?

Do a hard reset from hidden menu 3845#*970# ! same problem happened to me ...

/efs gets emptied every time I reboot

Hello everybody.
I have recently upgraded to CM9 on my SGS i9000, and while doing so lost the contents of my /efs folder.
I have found a way to restore it - just open Root Explorer, give 999 permissions on the folder, and voila! all /efs files appear a few seconds later by magic, and phone works correctly.
However, once I reboot it all disappears again, and I have to go over this process once again.
I've seen somewhere on xda-developers a link on how to fix this (or similar) problem a couple of days ago, but can't find it anywhere right now.
Please help!
Thanks alot.

Thanks for the link, but I'm afraid I've already saw it, and that's not it.
My IMEI is OK, but after every reboot gets wiped.
The link only describes how to backup, restore, and create a fake one.

[Q] IMEI changed after flash

Installed the CM7 rom as usual but
my imei was changed to 000000000000000 and can not make calls and send sms
(Although not show signal, you can
access the internet). In the system
does not contain the efs folder and
had not backed up. Is there a
solution?
not want to change, I know it's
illegal, I "only" repair the original. Yes,
I googled before posting, but found
nothing satisfactory. thank you and sorry for my bad english.
that was a bug of the rom which was fixed
try flashing the firmware through odin
thanks for the reply. Had already
restored the 2.3.6 rom by odin and
several others with cwm and not
solved.
then its a big problem

I guess its a hardware problem.. something wrong with the motherboard.. if flashing stock ROM or custom ROM didn't solve it then i guess you have to take it to the SC..

had tried this method but the efs
folder (And their archives) do not exist
in the system, unfortunately ...
I've been exploring the system files and view the log Custom recovery found the problem. Recovery was an error during the flash unfortunately could not solve the problem (yet) but anyway it was good to know where the error happened. Any help will be important, since that time my phone is just an MP3 player lol
Once again thank you and sorry for my english
Happened with me once and i think a trip to one of the samsung care center won't hurt much
Just be sure not to tell the people there that you flashed the cm7 custom rom on the device.

OK, thanks for the reply. I will try
a downgrade to Froyo in any
carrier to recover the efs and if it
fails it'll follow your advice. Thank

first try reflashing, if that doesnt work, grab a n6 factory image and flash that.

Followed by persist fix from this link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/guide-to-fix-persist-partition-t2821576
But still no result... The phone has just gone out of warranty and cant be given for RMA..

The OP got his phone fixed by the guarantee. I would suggest to flash stock firmware from Google's download pages. Get it back to stock and see if the problem persists.

I had an LG G2 that it happened to. Something must have went wrong during the flash. Just happened. Nothing I did wrong, just happened. Started backing up EFS after that. Backed it up during initial flash of N6, save it to Gdrive. Haven't worried about EFS since.
