Just to report, I lost my IMEI last evening and just could solved it this way. :good:
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Formhault:
How did you manage to lose it?!

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] glevitan:
I flashed the stock firmware (Movistar Argentina) with Mobile Odin. Did not change anything else...maybe the problem was doing a dirty flash, not sure thou but wanted to keep root to reset counter.

As my device is rebooting or turning off by itself from time to time, I want to keep it as stockish as possible in case I experience SDS and need to go to service centre.

Many thanks for this guide--I have made EFS backups using apps like Andromizer, and other, but this way seems very useful, thanks Dr. K.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] xenon92:
I successfully backed up my efs to a *.img on my Note 2 using the Mobile Terminal method. Thank you for the guide.

I also happen to own a Galaxy Grand i9082 and i wanted to backup the efs folder using Mobile Terminal method and make a *.img of it

I was wondering if same line of code will work for Galaxy Grand too? Is the block "mmcblk0p3" for efs in all phones?

I googled and saw that this efs block differs for different phones. If so, how can i figure out what to replace "mmcblk0p3" with to successfuly backup my efs on Galaxy Grand?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Yes it varies with device, you need to explore pit file to know efs partition block.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] xenon92:
This would be my last post regarding Grand and not Note 2.

I figured out my efs block and i think i have successfully made a *.img out of it. It is again 20MB in size just like it was when i did it on Note 2.

The terminal output was exactly like the one you have in your OP. Same number of bytes transferred. Same number of records in/out etc.

The only difference was that my transfer rate was 11 times as compared to the 5th screenshot and it completed on 0.9 seconds. (that doesn't matter, i guess!)

How to be sure about what i did was correct and that i have successfully backed up the required efs partition?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Google img unpacker and check by unpacking efs.img. It can be easily identify by contents of it.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] xenon92:
Successful.

Thank you for your help.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] UtkarshGupta:
Hey Dr.ketan,

Just noticed that on aosp, the command should be sdcard1 instead of extsdcard. There is difference between mounting names in aosp and touchwiz.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Sdcard1 is for int SD card or ext sdcard?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] mahmoud_m_m:
Sdcard1 for external memory as in AOSP roms the internal is 0 and external is 1.

I did it myself at first i didnt notice that i have to change that section but when i change it to to sdcard1 it worked and saved in the external.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Thx, will update op soon
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] JuNyA8971:
Thanks for the tip. I didn't realize that it was sdcard1. Finally backed up my efs. Many thanks!

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] bandroid842:
I can confirm that this tool is not working on CM 10.1. The code needs a different path
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Read few post above and try that.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] bandroid842:
I DID see the post about sdcard1 and tried it, but nothing happened. I also tried the method where I simply do:

su

reboot nvbackup

But I didn't see anything happening.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] xenon92:
use "sdcard0".

Following is valid for all ROMs.

Open Mobile Terminal.

Type:

ls /storage

It will show you the names of the internal and external memory with which the ROM has mounted the storage locations.

Leave "emulated".

Use the other names in the command provided in the OP. "sdcard0" is generally for internal storage. "sdcard1" / "extsdCard" is external sd card (ofcourse).

I think you should mention it in OP too, to use "sdcard0" as internal memory for the command instead of "extSdCard" as not everyone has an external memory card and this name differs from stock ROM to AOSP based ROMs.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Yeah correct, will update to op once have pc access.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] dr.ketan:
Updated OP.

If time permits then will make Aroma installer to make EFS backup with different option like stock/AOP ROM and INT/ExtSD card. I think this will easy for newbies.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] A.S._id:
Hi doc

Im want to educate how to make backup efs for flash via odin:

# md5sum -t EFS.tar >> EFS.tar

I cannot restore efs. when i try to call it tell me not registered to network..

I hope you can help
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] coolkoushik07:
Doc what is the difference between efs backup and nv data backup and modem backup? If I do backup raw .img of efs, Is it not enough to go ahead?

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 PM ----------

Which permission will be messed up? The original efs folder or just the backup one which I have copied from root??
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] eddyctweets:
Doc I tried this today and it wont work for me I got this

Im running the latest phoenix rom with your wifi patch. I tried also for the external sd card and it wouldnt work either.

I tried your aroma installer via cwm and it seems to run but at the end ive got no folder with the efs backup ???

Any ideas

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] ITAdmin:
I'm grasping at straws here!

I need to switch the motherboard and take the IMEI and whatever else I need from my working Galazy Note II which was updated OTA to v4.3 and insert in in my old Note II with a broken screen which has the original firmware so I can root and ROM it.

I can't root the working one due to it being updated to 4.3

Is there a method to backup this information without rooting?

Please help as I am really pissed at Verizon for updating MY property without my permission.

Thanks

Problem here :(

Hi doc, wanna ask for your help please. The thing is that a friend of mine lost his IMEI (no service at all) and he didn't make a backup, but his phone is not a N7100, if not a LG L7. So I decide to ask it to you because in LG L7 forum people didn't help me with this. Is there any way to bring it to life again or does he have to take it to service center? (paying for it obviously):crying:

Any idea?

Thanks!:good:

Dr. Ketan, really need your help.

I lost my Imei after downgrading from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2,

I have tried everything in all your guides,

Tried flashing stock rom, tried deleting and resoring the efs folder, reflashing different modems, reflashing stock again, going back to 4.4.2, I tried your Aroma backup and restore aswell

Android is amazing for ppl know their way around computer, especially *nix systems. It is for us to flash, brick and salvage.:cool:

WP is great for day to day use including some light load Office work. It is essentially more a work related phone.:cowboy:

Now iOS really sucks other than it's glorious UI. Even that is no longer glorious any more. It is great for a street phone. I supported my wife for getting a 5s for the sake of that plus the existence of the finger print sensor. My experience is that it's more for kids and general inexperienced public who just need things to work and look great.

My choice would be having an android system to play with, use my WP for day to day and throw my iOS device to my 3 year old so he can stop bothering me.:p
[General Topics] jmartrat:
Hi,

I am currently working in a project in Spain to implement an application for SFA (Sales Force Automation) to capture orders at Point of Sale . We are evaluating using XDA II (PPC 2003 phone edition) as a device where to run the application.

As this application (.NET) will sync data over GPRS, we need to have GPRS activated. But at the same time, we would like to save power deactivating GPRS from the application, when the user don't need to sync data with the server.

Here is the question :

- Is it possible to activate / deactivate GPRS from an application without deactivating the whole radio interface ? (i.e. we want the user be able to to make phone calls at any time (even when GPRS is off)).

- If so, what is the API that enables to do it ? (we don't want the user changing this from device settings).

Thanks in advance,

Rgs,

Jose Martrat

[General Topics] Raphael:
In order to deactivate your gprs connection, you hold the red button for 3 seconds (hang up button).

You have also some tools that have a connect/disconnect button sucg as GPRS monitor.
[General Topics] jmartrat:
I appreciate your quick repply, but I am not looking for a mechanism to close a GPRS session.

I need a way to disable the process that is permanently looking for the GPRS network,even when you don't have a GPRS session inititated (i.e. disable the radio interface for GPRS only), in order to reduce power consumption.

I need this from an API, not from a user intervention, so we can program this functionality on our application.

Hopes this clarifies my question.

Rgs,

Attached is a picture of my BLACK genuine original charger and my WHITE anker E4 charger.

I used both cords through the Anker - the genuine only giving out 800 MAX and the Anker cable 1800MAX

I used both cords through a Kensington Dual charger 2.1a and the genuine only giving out 800 MAX and the Anker 1200 MAX

Im confused as to how the terrible looking white Anker cable is better than the original genuine cable?

I have tried a few cables and NOTHING has compared to this Anker one in terms of ratings (via Galaxy Current App)

Where can i buy another Anker cabe like this to replace all my other cables?

Thanks
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] apallohadas:
Where ever you bought the first one.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Something is wrong with your black original cable cause its acting like a thin wire pc cable. My original Samsung wall charger and cable works at perfect 1.8A just based on under 2hr time it takes to charge oem battery. I suggest monoprice cables in other thread because they have original 24AWG/28AWG thick wires. That's what Anker cable probably has as well. All my cables at home are either from monoprice or Nexus 7 or Note 2, thus rated for 1A-2A current.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] castorscout:
Hi, first excuse my poor English

How do you know how much mAh give you each cable?

Thanks in advanced
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
It's simple, the anker cable is shorter and thicker = less resistance = more mA
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] castorscout:
Hi, you are true, in two sample of cables of the same material, thick is synonym of less mAh capacity. :good:

Three things:

1st) I recently a make a extensión for a usb charger. I buy a good (thin and expensive) USB to micro USB cable, when i cut both i discover the internal cables of the newest (thinner and expensive) have at least the half diameter of my original (and thick) cable :(,

Why look thinner the new one but don´t have more capacity? because the new cable (thinn), is ONLY massive shielded. :p

2nd) In your first post, you specify precisely two mAh amounts (800 and 1800). Again, please, How do you calculate? or How do you measure? :confused:

3rd) Is a fact two cables, made with the same/equal material, deliver differents amount of mAh using the same charger, by the configuration inside of the micro usb conectors. http://www.usbpinout.net/
[HTC Desire X] worm_89:
Hello guys,

I'm a noob, and this is my first thread and the reason why I'm here are my problems with my HTC Desire X.

I already read the rules and I was searching for a similar thread, but I did not found anything. I was reading a lot of threads here, but I decided to open a new one.

The problem:

I have this Desire X for 5 monts (CID: HTC_032) and it was working great until two weeks ago. Two weeks ago, I got the update for Jelly Bean 4.1.1 (software num: 2.20.401.5). After the installation, the phone continue working great, but after 5-6 days, the problems begun.

Now the phone is not usable, in sense that the keyboard is useless, so If I try to type something, the middle row of the keyboard is untouchable, if I try to touch A, either I get Q or Z. Also if I try to touch some icons on the main screen in that area its not registered ( I need to press 4-5 times so the app is activated )

I have tried to do a factory reset many times and the phone after some of the resets is working great for some hours, and then is getting jerky again..I assume that some memory is filled after a while and the phone is not usable..

I was reading for installing the stock ICS, but I'm not sure if that will solve the problem. I mean, is there anyone else that has this problem or maybe you guys already identified this problem. I'm little bit sceptic that this might be a hardware problem, or it is a software one?

I would appreciate if you help me identify and solve the problem
[HTC Desire X] ShadowCodeGaming:
Reading your post, it seems like a faulty digitizer, which only HTC can replace. Have you ever installed custom roms? If not, get it to HTC as quickly as possible.
[HTC Desire X] worm_89:
Thanks for your post..I have only installed the update via the legal Software Update button, nothing else..

So, it is a hardware problem, like I was thinking..but I'm confused why it was working nice before two weeks and now suddenly start doing this stuffs..

Anyway probably I would take it to a service, because it is still under warranty and I would be happy if I get a new one..
[HTC Desire X] ShadowCodeGaming:
Hardware can randomly fail. I've had many phones work one day and the next day they would refuse to work. I'd say get it to service center as quickly as possible before the entire digitizer fails.
