So when I put in *#745# it brings up a list of stuff that most of which i know nothing about - towards the bottom of the list it has an NV BACKUP option..... when i click on it, it prompts for a password - any body have any idea how to retrieve this password? I've tried all my passwords, including phone # and SSN.... im stumped...
anyone have any info on this??
it is mentioned in the vibrant section.

I have no clue what any of it does though..
I was trying to find about about the password that it asks for when you dial *#745# and try to do the NV BACKUP option thats in the list.... it prompts for a password... tried everything... nothing works.... anyone have any ideas where this password can be found?

i think he means it's not taking the password he put in when it asks for it, if it was put in correctly. make sure you're putting it in correctly if that's not it, then is it possible you originally put the password in wrong?
hello there, after I.ve restore the back up file, there is double icon like internet explore and extra one says internet explore (2,) and same to file expolore and file explore (2), and I couldnt delete the extra icon, did I back up wrong?

It will duplicate if you HR then make changes b4 restoring. You can use a tool like Pocket Mechanic or SK tools to easily delete duplicate shortcuts.
Otherwise you can delete them through your desktop via activesync or with a file explorer such as resco.
All of them have free trials, but I couldn't live without SK Tools.

Yes, it didn' t take the correct password. I sort it out putting the same password (6 digits) for restoring (it was 6 digits) and for locking (it was 4 digits).
Probably, it was a conflict between the 2 passwords... thnx anyway...
Hi,
in start/parameters/system i have an icon "grey bin" named "clear storage""("effacer données"):
it proposes to delete all datas if typing "1234" ,
i would like to supress that icon , as we cant define a better password
than "1234" as a confirmation, i find that stupid, if my pda is
on and the deviced password already entered that "anybody" could erase my data.
i couldnt find the path/lnk to that icon:
it's not in \windows\Menu Démarrer\Paramètres (empty folder!)
there's not any "parameters" folder in \windows\start menu\(only programs)
ps: i found a "clearstorage.exe" and htm, but i wouldnt like to erase only
the icon in parameters/system
best regards
That option I believe is the "clear storage" option. It effectively does a hard reset so someone could do a hard reset even if they did not know the password.
There may be a registry key to change the password, but it'[s unknown to me.

Hi Mike,
ok
thanks for your reply,
Where are the APN settings stored? I mean the file or whatever. Can I backup them?
Thanks.
They are not in the phone. You should add it manually. You can contact your network operator to configure it correctly or you can find the settings on your network operator web page.

Actually, they are In some database, or something...
You can backup and restore them using an app on the market ("APN backup and restore", or something like that, not using it personally...)

Mine are set up automatically, I don't have to do anything
well, thx for that I will have a look in the market ... I thought they are stored in a file or whatever, on the phone.
cause I need to enter them after each flash
Edit: got the app --> http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.riteshsahu.APNBackupRestore
File with APN is stored on "apns-conf.xml" somewhere, i dont know exactly where, sdcard or root (cannot serch, charging my galaxy with power off, right now). I have same file from cyanogen firmware, but dont know prepare for our device, always have some error. This file have APN data almost from all world operators.
Best regards

yes I saw those APN of the other operators. after backing up with the app I looked into this .xml file which is generated by the app and I got 60 entries. but i see only mine in the settings pane on the phone, how come
That was me strange too. But i think, maybe when you etc. go in roaming or chnging SIM card from other operator, connecting with this other operator, we got other APN points in Settings panel. I was make this, and have APN , hanging from wich operater sim card is in my galaxy...(T-Mobile Croatia, VIPnet, and Tele2)

Unlike other cases posted previously...
All files in efs were deleted, including all hidden .bak files
Now, kies displayed my phone have a product code of XXXXXXXXX and a fake IMEI...
Is it possible to restore the nv_data.bin and other files??
Please help! Thanks....
I have the same problem, is there a solution for that?? Please answer!
Did you install sgs toolbox and used it's check product code function before you deleted your efs? If yes, there is still a chance. If no, there are currently no public fix available yet.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
We are on the same boat, as what francis posted. No public fix yet but pretty sure there will be.. its just a matter of time.
the same thing happened to me yesterday when i flashed Cyanogenmod 7, got fake imei but everything worked just fine (call, data, market).
today i deleted everything from efs folder using Root Explorer then installed i9000XWJS5 then, surprise, i got my original imei back.
do not know how and do not know if it will work on you but it worth a try
The same thing happened to me.
If I dial *#06# no imei appears.
In order to use the phone everytime I boot up I have to give r/w permission to system folder. Otherwise it doesn't recognize the sim card.
It seems to me that that the device is not anymore able to recognize itself.
If I try to install CM or other AOSP rom I have status 7 error.
In Rom manager I have a window where I should select wich kind of device it is.
In fastweb installer there is a list of devices and I have to choose wich of them I am using.
I know that there is nothing to do with warranty. But is it possible to go back to a stage where it is possible to install AOSP rom?
Thanks
don't know it may work or not, but some custom roms make a backup of the efs folder on sdcard under /sdcard/backup/efs or /sdcard/backup/efs-XXX
(XXX= some numbers). you can try to restore it from there.
again don't know for sure...
Normallary Not

I have checked, but there is no backup.
I know the only one to blame it's me.
Do you think that there is anyway to make possible installing AOSP rom?
Watch out! That guy below me is spam! (User @yankee86)
So basically this happened to me. I was experimenting random reboots and made a hard reset in order to see if this fix the issue. Everything seems normal, bnut after I registered my google account the Backup assistant shows and try to connect to server but then came this messages "Network unavailable, please contact Verizon customer support for assistance". I cancel the message and the the Setup Accounts screen shows up, I click on "done adding accounts" then next and then another message appears "Sorry! The application My Accounts (process com.motorola.setup) has stopped unexpectly, please try again" and then I can do nothing, this screens continue showing. I pressed the haptic buttons and nothing happened. I can't go to home screen or even phone configurations. The only things that my phone can do right now y receive sms and calls. What can I do???? PLease help!!!!
use the mic to get online download an app when U do it will prompt U to allow it to install while ur doing that also allow debuggin n anything else u might need to get it to use adb.
after that use pete's motorola root tool to restore the system apps n root.
reboot n ur done
Thanks. I try to do that. I download the Droid Original System file and wheh I click on restore my/system app button, this message shows:
ERROR: /restore/ backup doesn't exist or is incomplete!
These files must be downloaded and saved to your computer in a /restore/ subfolder
Do you know where I should put this restore subfolder?
