Okay, Hello everyone i accidentally dropped my phone the other day getting out of my truck and cracked the screen i am paying for a warranty and i know the warranty is void when i root my phone but i'm hoping if i go back to the stock rom and unroot my phone they will not notice so i am back here to XDA to hope that u guy's can help me.
I did root my phone but with my friends help. He will not help me unroot my phone and set it to the stock rom because he does not know how, I don't know but i don't have patience for him so i will do it myself.
Tell me what information i need to provide to you guy's so u can assist me, and i will try my hardest to provide whatever is needed, if someone could help it would be greatly appreciated .

How to take my old imei back. Thanks bro.
Give it back to service centre. No other way.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Yes you need to go to a service centre, unless you backed up your EFS partition.
Bit of a gravedig but what was the outcome? Have you managed to fix it or did you send it back to Samsung?
If you still have it, unfixed, here's my advice
Unfortunately it isn't good news - a corrupt EFS is one of the hardest things to fix - without a backup it probably can't be done.
It's unlikely but restoring to stock via odin is the first port of call. Probably won't do anything but worth a shot.
Otherwise, The galaxy S3 had a very similar issue though and there was some success at injecting the imei back into the phone - ask around and see if the note 2 has anything similar (or perhaps even identical) process.

hi guys i am looking for a efs backup file for galaxy note 4 sm-n910a i mess up mine and i am trying to fix it. and since this phone is not rooted yet it proven very difficult to do so. so anyone with a back up plz help me out.

Hi ,
I lost my imei number with a wrong flash. I already flashed a couple of stock roms in hope I got the imei back but no luck. I have no backup and i was wondering if someone has a solution for me. I had this with my galaxy s2 also and someone send me an efs. tar file and it magically worked…. Pls someone have this magically efs file!
I remember somewhere in s4mini was a thread about restoring imei from a secondary partition or something all you needed to do is some commands in terminal emulator or adb
I've bought used N910A phone and the EFS parition was corrupted, so it had to be wiped in service mode. The rest is working fine and after ODIN with stock rom + temporary root I can access to EFS partition, but it doesn't include anything so I need to put there content. The best way could be if somebody will give me the EFS partition backup then I will change IMEI and certificate for original one.
Thanks in advance for this. It will save my life!
You can PM to me if you don't want to share this EFS on the forum.

Can anybody help in this, please? It is very simply help, so any support will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Doubt anyone here wants to share EFS files. When you talk about altering EFS and IMEI, you're getting into legal issues with phones.

I whole heartedly agree. If you messed the phone up that bad you should mostlilely not be messing with it or take it to some place to service it for you.
And just an FYI i have seen alot of not so well english speakers askong for different parts of firmware or code of devices so the could build clones. I have been in the software and devices running linux code for over 10 years starting out with FTA (free to air) and we had a company out of south korea build our units and we did the code to make the set top boxes work. We many of our units cloned and our software stolen reversed and rebuilt to make it look like theirs. Thats why i got out of that business.
So thats why you are going to have a real hard time finding someone to share their efs partition. And you should always backup your device before doing anything to it ever and never ever aquire one with a missine imei or efs

Of course I fully agree with you. I am android user since first android comercial impementation (on HTC G1), and of course I always make nandroid backup and EFS backup. This time it is completely different story. As I said I've bought phone with corrupted EFS partition, but full information about IMEI is available. So the only way to make this phone running is to get any EFS partition and change settings. For people having doubts: you can get rid IMEI from settings from the EFS partition. I just need the content to set up the rest.
Thanks in advance. Please PM to me if you can help me. Once again: thanks.
