Time and money have been invested into this project so donations are appreciated.

ATTENTION: I need a copy of someones full backup. Requirements are that you never flashed an AOSP rom (CM9, CM10, AOKP) and that your SGS3 is T-mobile. I need this to work on the data issue!
Update: The data issue is still being worked on and some progress has been made but there is still not a solid easy fix. IF YOU MADE A BACKUP THEN GOT THE DATA BUG, PLEASE MAKE A SECOND BACKUP SO THAT I CAN COMPARE THE BEFORE/AFTER!

Nice, even easier method.

Can someone with a T-mobile sgs3 that has never flashed a CyanogenMOD rom or preformed a clockworkmod restore do a full backup and send it to me in a private message?
To do the backup I need read Range (Dec): 00000-05575
Note: I want this so I can look into the data issues that some people are having. Thank you.

Is thats how it suppose to look , isn't string very short only 9 characters long ? ATT Samsung based deodexed rom.

It is working on ATT too? Do i have to have unsecure kernel?
Edit: i know the answer for first one... Yes how about second?

Yes, that is how it's supposed to look. The 08 is the command setting and the rest is your encoded IMEI.

Yes it works on ATT also. No you do not need insecure kernel, it will work on a stock phone.

It will work if I'm rooted also?

So I backup the IMEI and if I ever loose it I restore my IMEI and it will give me back data btw great work will donate soon, I'm on a stock rom not cm with faux kernel, I can't backup or do I have to go back to stock?

Wait, you guys found the IMEI? I haven't been following.

I backed up and I was using FreeGSM R5. Backed up and re-wrote, lost service but it came back after a reboot. Great find! Now don't have to worry about ever losing my IMEI.

Does this mean we need no longer be afraid to flash to our hearts content?
Sent from my SGH-T999

This is great, thanks! IMEI backed up and written back to check :nervewrecking:
Took a reboot to get service after writing it back, just to let people know

No, I was just demonstrating the write feature.

Super simple, thanks! Can't believe that this IMEI issue plagued us and then all of a sudden peoplesarmy figured it out and you immediately released this super simple version. Thanks! Now to install CM10...

Whew, safe to flash again! Great work!

WOW! This just got even easier! Un-Freakin' - believable, how easy you've made this "Mr. Geek! I just wrote it three times just for practice, and because I was kinda havin' fun for a second there, lol! You guys are so amazing. Thank you so much for all of your hard work on this! Now I've got mine backed up both ways, but with this file saved to my pc, it's so fast to do. I dare somebody to wipe my imei, lmao!
Seriously Geek, you've saved alot of ppl alot of trouble & cash & that's great. You and Peoplearmy both put in alot of work to help so many ppl who couldn't have done it without you, and it's selfless acts of kindness like this that make xda such a fun community! I'll be holding onto my gs3 forever, and I'm really looking forward to learning from fellas like yourself & Peoplearmy!

Imei simple fix!!!

Guys,
Here is a working EFS folder which you would put in your root to replace your old non working EFS file which has your IMEI.. Simple copy your origal EFS folder to your desktop and place my EFS folder in your root.... Vuala your 4G is back and no more edge.....
Only tested on T-Mobile....
I'm not responsible for any bricks or issues..... You've been warned!!!!!
If this works for you please hit the thanks button....

I would say yes, but more importantly, if it really does work, then all of us can just backup our own EFS folder
I read that the EFS folder does not contain the IMEI, but what the hell, might as well backup that folder on my external SD (done..)
Just in case there's something to it.

Well I'm not a pro at this, is their a problem sharing my IMEI? Would that cause me issues?
What I do know is that you can back up your working EFS folder and if you ever loose your IMEI just copy back that folder and your good...

Unfortunately that seems to not be the case with the Galaxy S3.. read up on the "lost IMEI" threads

Jarule51082 thanks for the files, I haven't tried yet because I don't know if its safe to put your folder in place of mine, hoping someone can confirm if it is or isn't.

i tried and it doesn't work for me.
the problem with my phone is when i paste my efs folder to the root of the phone. when if reset or reboot my phone my the permission change.
the redata.bin files permission change from "rw-rw-r--" to "rw-r--r--"
i can manually change the permission back to rw-rw-r-- but when i reboot the phone it keep changing back to rw-r--r-- no matter what.
i try to do a fix permission but it won't lets me

I'll see if one of my friends can let me borrow their S3 so u can I try it on theirs.. It should be.... What you can do is back up your current EFS folder on your External and replace it with mine and see if it works... The phone boots up with the EFS deleted completely so it should be no problem putting another working EFS folder in there.... Just saying... But your welcome bro no problem..
My BEAST!!

Liquid you did take your other EFS folder out completely right? It didn't just make a other like efs1 or something like that?
Just a thought if it worked for anyone let me know if it didn't ill take it down.. It worked for me flawlessly but it might be limited to its own devise... So if more do test keep us in the loop... Thanks

Look, aside from my reservations that you might be doing something malicious, even if your intentions are good what you're suggesting is based on what you THINK, and all data posted on the subject so far says that you're wrong. I'm talking about data from experienced users and devs that have worked on this issue specifically for weeks/months.
Maybe you're a good guy who just isn't that wise, but the only thing people could do that would be fairly safe (barring any permanent loss of their own IMEI that could happen) would be to copy their OWN IMEI, and test things with that.
There are too many risks both to you and the person who uses your IMEI.

Your probably right I'm just trying to share what worked for me.... I'm not malicious I'm just trying to help.

Guys,
What Ingen said is true you can use this method and back up your own IMEI so if you ever loose it just put the EFS file back in and you'll be good.... I apologize if my IMEI did not work for the ones who lost it...... Thanks again guys....

clockwork mod...1970?

anyone know a workaround for this? the bad thign about it is I often will flash multiple roms/have different backups and forget which one is which...which is the most recent etc. Why does it date as 1970 even though my clock and everything is fine? Would manually setting the clock (vs from the network) resolve this issue?

I started using rom manager to initiate backups. The date comes out correct if you do that.

I haven't been able to find a version of CWM that doesn't do this for this phone. All I've been doing is just renaming the backup once it's complete, usually just to something like CM10_BACKUP_NOV16 or STOCK_BACKUP_NOV16. Can be renamed from your phone's file manager.

As he said, you must initiate the backup in ROM Manager in order to have the correct date, or a custom name for your backup.

Be cautious of spaces in your file name. Use hyphens or periods rather than spaces.

There is a tool somewhere which will regenerate the MD5 sum after you rename the folder. Maybe someone else, or a search, could point you in the right direction.
It might have been Rom Toolbox in the market by JRummy

I was using twrp 2.2 for a while and some roms had problems flashing, especially ones with graphical installers like Ariel. I updated to the latest clockwork mod recovery and things have been fine ever since. twrp updated since then so the issues might be resolved but I haven't seen any reason to switch back. I am a linux admin don't need a touch based interface on my recovery environment.

This is BETTER than a workaround:
Online Nandroid Backup
WHY?
- dates are correct
- no need to boot into recovery mode to perform backup
- fast and organized, and easy to rename backups
- it's under good steady development for new FEATURES.
- auto updating of script
(There is a script and a gui dev...make sure to thank them both)
(You don't need CWM to create backup, but you do need CWM to restore)

Date issue comes from device issue
According to the TWRP2 page for the AT&T GS3,
Date/time in recovery will always be wrong due to a device issue that cannot be fixed.

I assume that this is what is effecting my CWM backup names. Sounds like some to just live with and workaround....

A file named 'efs.img' should be inside 'EFS_Backup' Folder. That is your backup. You should find the folder in the internal memory.

i am not able to see the .img file after backing of the efs through this apk in the phone memory. Currently using es file explorer with root option enabled.( in Carbon 4.4.2 by xenon92). I am in doubt whether any .img file has been created or not. I have not tried the terminal emulator method though.
But using the same apk in stock 4.2.2, i was able to back up the 20 mb size .img file.
I doubt whether I wud be able to restore the same in these custom roms ....just in case it becomes necessary....

Thanks.......

Thanks a lot for this.

[Q] How do I retrieve Notational Acceleration notes from Kies3 backup of Galaxy S3?

Here goes:
--Backed up wife's Galaxy S III (T999) in March, along with all app data, using Kies 3
--She was using an app called Notational Acceleration to keep a large number of notes, but no cloud sync
--T999 was replaced, due to water damage, with a Galaxy S III LTE (T999L)
--I figure the notes she made must be somewhere in the backup, so I found a file (com.kludgenics.android.notes-1.apk) that I thought might have them
--tried opening that file on her T999L and a different T999 and got the same message, "There is a problem parsing the package."
How can I find these notes in the backup? Am I looking in the wrong place? What other folders could they be in? I've tried emailing the developer but get no answer.
I greatly appreciate any help.

Wouldn't know where to find the notes but what you found was only the installer for app, the .apk no actual user information is there. The only place it would still have a possibility of being on is probably the phone unless Kies backs up Android data. You could try looking in the /Android/data folder. Alas, if it isn't there I think it is lost forever.

Thanks so much for responding.
I had a feeling the .apk was not the right place, I've used .apk files to install before. It was the only thing I could find that pointed to the app, so it was really wishful thinking. The original phone is back with t-mobile.
I just checked Kies 3, and it gives the option to back up the apps but not the app data; it doesn't seem like it's even possible to do with the program! I need to search for another backup program for Samsung phones, I'm used to complete backups with CWM on my nexus phones so I'm not used to having these problems. What terms do you suggest I use when searching for the ability to back up the /Android/data folder? Is that just considered "app data?"
I appreciate your help.

When you open that folder on your phone you generally find names of some apps on your phone. I don't use CWM or Kies so I wouldn't know about either unfortunately.

It shouldn't be. It should be located in the Internal storage, or sd card. No problem, sorry about the loss of data. Hope it wasn't anything too important.
