QUESTION: Restore nv_data.bin backup made with SGS Toolbox

[AtoZ0to9]

I have flashed darky's no wipe and was using Axura before
Axura never changed my product code or IMEI
However darky's has changed my product code but not the IMEI

I have a proper backup created with SGS Toolbox but how do I restore it? I have root explorer so should I use that to overwrite the folder with the backup?

I only have my phone at the moment so restoring the backup from SD with the phone is what I'm looking for.

Thanks,
Brian

Just replace the nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 back to your /efs folder. leave the .bak files alone if they are dated from august. those are the originals, these can be used to restore your .bin and .bin.md5 files.
if you have root explorer I would honestly copy that whole EFS folder to your SD card and maybe to a backup on the computer.

Nah no Aug files... Some nov files though... And i got this phone after the files' date so i suppose those may be it? Im guess having a proper product code and imei is all that matters correct?

Thanks and merry xmas

Ok.. So ive tried replacing the files with my backup and the product code stays the same... However when i tun a product check it says the backup has the correct product code... So i go to my earliest product code check folder and rename the files and paste them into the efs folder then reboot... Am i doing something wrong? I have the correct imei and things are working so should i just get a computer handy and follow the steps to restore everything?
