Im not sure if batista auto helps u wipe when flashing zip,or wipe urself. u shud clear cache and dalvik cache before flashing rom too. if after u flash but no wipe,can always go back to cwm and select factory reset  edit:our profile pictures are so similar This post has been edited by TheLaptopDudeGuy: Oct 21 2011, 06:22 PM

I did a backup of efs folder using hellcat tool and wanted to copy the efs.img file to my computer for back-up.
But cannot find the efs.img file in \root\sdcard folder. Tried to search using ES File Explorer and Windows Explorer after connecting to my computer.
What I am doing wrong? Please help.
I am on stock rom and rooted (non-G version). Also do we have to backup imei info separately?
Thanks for all the replies.

Err, that's what happens when you total-wipe? Or you wipe cache and dalvik only? In that case that IS strange. This post has been edited by Eiraku: Oct 21 2011, 07:54 PM
