Might be your only hope.
Then remember to backup your efs if you get it working again:

Pretty much a necessity on Samsung devices.
thanks, 1 more favor to ask, can you show me your /factory folder?
/factory/
bluetooth/bt_addr
imei/mps_code.dat
lost+found/
wifi/.mac.info
.nv_core.bak
.nv_core.bak.md5
.nv_data.bak
.nv_data.bak.md5
.nv_state
hdcp.keys
nv.log
nv_data.bin
nv_data.bin.md5
wv.keys
Code:/factory/ bluetooth/bt_addr imei/mps_code.dat lost+found/ wifi/.mac.info .nv_core.bak .nv_core.bak.md5 .nv_data.bak .nv_data.bak.md5 .nv_state hdcp.keys nv.log nv_data.bin nv_data.bin.md5 wv.keys
You may be out of luck since you actually formatted it... That link assumes the directory still exists even though your IMEI is screwed.
flashed 6.0.4.4
btw, how to get or see the rainbow mode easter egg?
accidently formated factory folder, now i have generic IMEI instead of my own, now i have no signal at all i do have a backup rom on my computer and restore it will work, but i don't think i still have that EFS folder on my backup anymore. tried Ktool and EFS professional tool, but none of them worked. dose anyone have any idea how i can get back my EFS/IMEI? thanks in advance
Dunno why you want it back when it apparently doesn't do much, but it was taken out in the 6.0.3.5 build I believe. So 6.0.3.4 or earlier would be what you would want.

i've come across this thread first, but it didn't work for me since i don't have backup of original factory folder. i've been thinking, if you can copy .nv_data.bin from /factory to /data/radio to fix imei problem, why can't i just do the backwards?
coz flashing my previous nandroid backup is the only way to get my phone working again, so /data/radio should contain the correct .nv_data.bin file, since nandroid backup only backs up data and system. so i just copied .nv_datda.bin and .nv_data.bin.md5 from /radio/data to /factory then clean install a ROM. now i have my imei back and phone is running like it's supposed to be.

Did you have do any permission changes to get those to be read from the /factory partition? I can restore my old nandroid and my phone is working, but I copied those files to the /factory partition but when I flashed a new rom the IMEI is back to the generic one. Are you still just running the nandroid backup? This really sucks that option is in there. Why would it even be there? It even shows up on the release of v6.0.4.3!
