We all known that EFS partition holds the imei,sn ,wifi mac & other important data.
In Snapdragon the EFS partition are modemst1 ,modemst2 & FSG partitions. so it's important to take backup of these partitions.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Connect your phone to PC , adb debugging enabled & goto adb shell by,
Code:
adb shell su
OR

Open terminal emulator app in your phone & take super user permissions, by

Code:
su

2. Type following commands to backup imei partitions.
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p16 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p16_modemst1
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p17_modemst2
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p20_fsg

Also these are some important partition you should consider to backup.
modem, fsc, bk1, ddr.

Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p23 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p23_modem
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p9_DDR
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p12_bk1
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 of=/sdcard/mmcblk0p18_fsc

Now the backup is stored in you internal storage ,store these files in safe place.
in case u get invalid imei or unknown, restore these partitions.

dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p17_modemst2 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17
dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p20_fsg of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20
dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p23_modem of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p23
