I think you cant do anything without efs partition backup

hi !
have you tried to flash a firmware with odin ? but with "re-partition" for a full restoration...
Or by a PC ,with smart swift or kies you have a process of restoration after a fail and errors...

i had that issue with my old s2 and a technique in a store got it fixed i gave him the box and he did it

Can someone give me an backup of the efs partiton with twrp of a520f please?

LG KS20 NVRAM backup

Hi,
I was flashing the handset without backup the NVRAM, and now the phone part is dead. He says "No Service". Can someone help me by sending the NVRAM backup of KS20 in the LGMDP backup format (.nv2) or in NVEditor format. I can restore the original IMEI of my phone.
Thanks in advance!

People already said that it was your fault if you can't use your bricked phone... The instructions to flash say many many many times to BACKUP YOUR NV2 before flashing!!! Couldn't you read that f*****g instructions??? Nobody will solve your problem...and please STOP opening new threads about the same issue!
so, try flash your handset with KS20-00-V10b-CIS-xx-FEB-14-2008 and then try to backup NVRAM. Regards

I've already done a backup of my nv2 file and restored correctly with each ROM I've tried since now. nv2 fiel by other users can't be helpful and , again, nobody can help you if you couldn't read simple steps to flash your phone.
an backup of NVRAM from any LG KS20 handset can help me 100%, be sure. A and you can't backup your NVRAM, if the KS20-00-V10b-CIS-xx-FEB-14-2008 flash presents in your handset 100%, be sure too. The phone is not detected by LGDMP in normal mode(only emergency mode), and nor copiing windiag.dll to windows directory, nor correcting the rgeistry do'nt solve this problem!!!

Are you making fun of me ? Do you know what the nv2 file is for??? Why should I give you my nv2 which contains MY IMEI, MY Bluetooth and Wi-fi addrees, MY brand infos ??? IF there's no service maybe you only need to unlock your phone (see the Thread about it).
You listened about NVEditor? then you can remove any sensitive data. I need only calibration data for radio!
All rom can communicate with LGDMP, with some rom you just need some more steps but nothing very difficult ...

Is there that steps a big secret, or you can tell us about that?
it is 100% our fault that we killed our devices.but we are desperate.and we know that if the guys in this forum have not the answer, there is no answer.
The first step is done.
what do you mean?
did u find a solution?
Can u find any nv2 file? Give me it and i give you solution for your handset.
i don't that file.i have the same problem with you.did you repair the signal?
To everyone,
If u need .nv2 file, pm me with ur imei no. and email address, i can generate one for you, but the last digit, which is calculated by your phone, would likely to be different and also i can only generate branded .nv2 since i only got branded .nv2 file. It could be work in unbranded phone but just u need to flash a branded rom or hybrid rom to use with it.
a big big big big big big big big big big big big big big big thanks to raykisi.my phone after 20 days is back to life again.many many thanks man you are the best.
same problem

try flashing your official firmware through Odin. other users solve their imei problem by doing that. see also if you can access engineering mode with that official firmware.

lets wait for others specially those who are expert in android for some advice. I'm just an ordinary security guard so i can't help you much with your problem. what i have suggested you from my previous post was the last thing I did when my phone finally worked. for 4 days i been searching for solution because i also have an IMEI problem. i flash back to official rom, flash patched modem, flash other roms to no avail until such time when my phone doesn't boot because of broken partition :laugh:. if you still have warranty restore it back. if you're already out of warranty and you have money, you can it send it to service center.
P.S.
you can also try this if you have courage. i was able to make some secret codes work but i have'nt tried if it works with engineering mode by modifying hiddenmenu in /efs/carrier/hiddenmenu. use efs explorer to open hiddenmenu and change it to ON.save it and restart your phone and see if engineering mode work. remember that you have to be in official firmware and also rooted to do this. if its not working then you'll just have to wait for a much better solutions from devs.
Same question
I have the same problem, as owner of the thread. Any help?

Please Help: IMEI Changed FIXED!

using Galaxy Tab S t705
IMEI has been changed to 004999010640000/01
what I did:
1. I came from CM12.1
2. I flashed lollipop stock Rom
3. I've noticed that even if it has full signal bar, it shows that "emergency calls only"
4. I checked my IMEI and yes it has been changed
how to restore my IMEI
I got not backup of my Working EFS
That's the default imei when the EFS partition is corrupted or wiped. Its not the first time I've heard this happening with cm 12.1
If you didn't make a backup there's not a lot you can do.
i'm doomed

maybe I should return it to where I bought it
I fixed it!
I remember that I got a backup of a ROM with working IMEI, so basically I just Restored it from TWRP and as a result it has my IMEI back again.
NOTE: ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR EFS/FULL ROM IF YOU ARE GOING TO DO ANYTHING TO YOUR TABLET

IMEI lost, questions about backing up another MOTO Z Play "EFS".

Hi, I've been trying to find a solution for the problem of null IMEI I'm having after wiping EFS partition on the Chinese TWRP, maybe it's not that and it is because I've erased modemst1, modemst2 and flashed modem+fsg.
I'm pretty sure it had to do with one of those procedures, when I wiped the EFS I've got some error saying it couldn't be done but something went missing.
I've got a more direct question now, my brother just bought a Moto Z Play yesterday, if I backup his EFS on my phone (he already asked if I want to do that) will both of us would be able to use our phone normally?
can anyone backup their "efs" and upload it here so that i can restore it and get back my imei.
plzzz. needed indian efs

No way, like you already now, each phone has an individual IMEI. Your phone is unfortunately unusable.
What did you attempt to do? Flash another firmware package ?

Lenovo could generate it. But they probably instead replace the main board. You may ask them how much the repair is.
I think I'll just take it there and see if they can do anything about.
well, lesson learnt hard way

Now you know not to use fishy Chinese recoveries.
efs
Hey you can use sigma box to restore imei which will cost you around 800 rs,same thing happened for me but still not fixed just using with wifi
If partition can be wiped, then is not read only. If is not read only, should be possible to write backup back. Otherwise, what's the point of the backup?!
Each phone should/must have different IMEI, depending of the network. In theory, should be possible to take partition from one phone and write to another. However, Moto maybe prevents that checking some hash, serial number... If it's possible to write partition from another phone, again question is can those two phones be on the same network in the same time. I also saw a way to change IMEI, I think even on this sub forum.
If someone solve this problem I definitive pay to that sir, he would be rich In the first day..
