This isnt exact
What i can tell is that its a form of encryption, and that they use it in applications to encrypt the data between the phone and places like Dropbox/Google

I was thinking maybe a way to get the imei back? Syncs to some other storage location. But might just as easily be putting current imei in efs back up as going from back up to efs.

I tried it already. But it says "EFS_SYNC() was not supported".
You can always restore from the firmware's Restore/Backup.
Main Menu > UMTS > COMMON > NV REBUILD > [4] Restore Back-up
The firmware will use its default backup (they call it Golden-Backup). For me that default Golden-Backup is called Ca//NV. This is the first thing I look for. Then if I make a mistake I can restore.
But I still love learning.

I don't know if it helps but there is a option in the toolkit to Backup your EFS Partation?

How did you access those menus?

Dial the following keys *#197328640#
From another post in unlocking Galaxy Note 2 sim.
And from another post in getting SGH-T889 to work with AT&T. But still need stock APN. Work for some and not for others.
We also notice both LTE and WCDMA radio bands are included.

Found out
Ok i used some of my Google mojo and found this What is EFS? It is a place that stores your Android smartphone important data like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth MAC address and IMEI (nv_data.bin). Do take note if you are a frequent ROM / firmware flasher or rooted your Android phone. Install unstable or poorly cooked ROM might cause EFS partition to be corrupted or missing. This will make your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 fail to make voice call due to missing IMEI number. Therefore better to make a backup of your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 EFS partition.

When I follow Main Menu > UMTS > COMMON > NV REBUILD >
I get ....Not supported on custom firmware.
I am just rooted on stock rom...may be it needs totally stock without root

This can happen if you have an SD card that has rooting tools from an older device in it. Try taking your card out, or wiping it.

Install an app from that requires root, if the app requests root and you press allow and the app works you`re rooted. What recovery do you have, samsung or CWM?
Phones don`t modify themselves, people modify phones
@jalu147 Samsung bootloaders are always unlocked, unlike HTC.

Reset the binary flash counter with Triangle Away and flash the stock rom rom with Odin, after that do a data/factory reset and after the reboot your status should say Normal again.

It can be also that the country code does not match your Samsung account region. I had once same when flashing other countries ROM.

N7100 Software Modified
Yes, I am having the same issue, the N7100 is showing that the software has been modified, but it is a stock ROM with no flash. It is from another country though since N7100 is not sold generic in US. Any advice on how to get around it and update?

[Q] How are people losing IMEIS?

I want to root and flash cm10 on my galaxy s3, but I hear their might be some complications. I want to avoid all complications.
nobody know why we lose IMEI when flashing from ROM to ROM, its just bad luck i think, me myself been flashed more than 100+ but never happend to me.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I've never seen that happen.
But you should do a nandroid backup. If you are concerned.
I never do, but it doesn't hurt.
It's pretty straightforward.
Root with the right software and files. Odin is your friend. All, available in the stickies of the dev section.
I think people from other forums try to make it sound scary to root the s3.
Easiest phone I ever rooted. I have a cell phone store.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I lost my imei in my first flash on the s3, actually in pretty sure it's because i chose the wrong .pda. I was in the international version lol. I'm on cm10 now.

IMEI numbers are lost when you mix and match the PDA files or Modems of one version with another or if you flash any other ROM not intended for your phone. ALthough sometimes this doesn't happen. I lost my IMEI for my Galaxy S(international) but thankfully flashing a Stock Rom restored it. That is why people recommend doing a NANdroid back up or atleast backing up ur efs folder.(though i never do )

I could be wrong, but I don't believe that just a nandroid will restore your imei. If it were really that simple, I don't see why there would have been so much time devoted to coming up with a specific method to backup and restore your imei.

Is there a fullproof way of not losing imei?
I would recommend using efs pro and back up your imei..its happend to me and if you dont have a backup you could be in a pickle!

Nandroid backup will not backup your imei or efs file..you need a special program..and by just making a copy if your efs will not work because there is a file signature. .

for me a simple flashing of my stock rom sufficed..or else normally you could do an efs backup and restore. well for nandroid backup never actually did one,but most people told me it was a solution so i assumed it to be one.
Does this only happen to the galaxy s3 also? Or do other phones lose IMEIs when flashing.
I'm starting to think the risks outweigh the rewards.

How exactly did you lose yours? I'm getting that its random every time, but there must be something specific that is making people lose their IMEIs.

Same thing happened to me today. Maybe it wasn't a mistake. Is it your ROM Jellybam 5.2.0 by any chance?
After odin'ing a stock rom, if still no service, another important thing to check is under "about phone" under settings. Check baseband.
Also look in "about phone" under "status". Bring a screen shot. Lots of blank fields is a bad thing...

Indeed, flashing a stock rom through odin did it.
I tried every other solution (ktool, moving files using root explorer and terminal emulator etc.) with no luck.

Don't bother! APN has all to do with getting your data connection up and running, but nothing to do with locking on the network in the first place (which is a pre-requisite to getting data service).
This is between your phone, the SIM card and the cellular network.
What, if anything, have you been doing with the phone to get there? More specifically, have you played with the service menu (*#1973* etc.)?
What happens when you do a network search? Is any operator network listed in the result at all? Have you tried the same SIM in another phone that is known to work to check if it sees your operator network and with what strength? Have you tried in different places (places known to be close to one of your operator networks antennas, where coverage would be optimal).
I would first use another phone and look for one such place, with 5 bars signal strength, then try again with the Note 2.
good luck

Are you sure the Note II supports the same frequencies that are used in your country?
I would suggest making sure that you have 2G/3G/LTE enabled, and not just 3G or just 2G etc.
If that's not the issue, then I would suspect your SIM is faulty, or there is a problem with the phone's antenna.

No need to flash - just open the zip files and copy the backgrounds/sounds over to your sd card. Easiest thing in the world.
Also, the new S Voice still isn't working for me. It just returns a no network connection error message. Anybody have a fix for this yet?
