To yield an usable image they need to be done before the EFS gets corrupted. For the GT-I9300, the EFS partition is mounted in /efs and the following files contain the modem data: +-----------------------+---------------------------------------------+ | Files paths | Content | +-----------------------+---------------------------------------------+ | /efs/nv_data.bin | It contains the modem data | | /efs/nv_data.bin.md5 | It contains a checksum of the file above | | /efs/.nv_data.bak | It contains a backup of nv_data.bin | | /efs/.nv_data.bak.md5 | It contains a checksum of the file above | +-----------------------+---------------------------------------------+ Before experimenting with it, it would be better to have a backup (you probably now do have one) and to post some logs here. The nv-data-md5 tool from libsamsung-ipc is able to compute the custom md5 that is expected to be in nv_data.bin.md5. Unfortunately we didn't ship it yet in Replicant 6 images. Patches to ship more debug tools are welcome. > Is it better to open a new thread for these issues or shall we > carry on with this one? md Either work fine for me. Denis.
