The subject arose because in Ukraine we are threatened that from September 1st all gray pipes will be difficult / impossible to connect to the networks of mobile operators. Filter course going by IMEI-yam

I drive vehicles from abroad. Therefore, it is interesting to be able to sew in gray devices from simple old good pipes that have been “living” in Ukraine for a long time.

I rummaged through the forum, I did not find information on the change. obviously no one needed it before.
But now the citizens of Ukraine seem to think hard about it.

grateful for any info on changing IMEI in NTS communicators

This is not possible, IMEI is rigidly sewn into the radio module.

mdya .. that's how it is simple and painfully painful
Radio module ...
And if I change the radio, is there no way IMEI can be changed?

No, it can be said contacts are soldered in a certain sequence, if it will be more understandable

-LLIAMAH-,
What do you think, if ATS can find a phone only by IMEI in cooperation with mobile operators?

do not be categorical. In any case, on some devices (I do not remember which ones) I had changed after the firmware. Itself did not come across, but from people trustworthy. Again - I think these fortels are a glitch that the developer missed. Have, then, he and ID, so that nothing depends on anything.
already 18th :) As far as I know, the "stolen" phones in Russia partly run away to (c) Ukraine - and nothing :)

On the one hand, MAC addresses are also hard-wired in hardware, and on the other hand, on Windows and on adequate network equipment, they are easily programmatically changed. But not on WM, I did not see such solutions for him.

So, it seems, they threatened to filter the doubles of “White” IMEI

About six months ago, one dude explained in detail how to change IMEI to HTC units on the qualcomm platform. I did not think to save a fool, after half a day he was banned and his post was deleted, it turns out to discuss such topics on xda is prohibited :(

In general, the order was something like this:
1) Cracked radio firmware
2) SuperCID
3) Treason IMEI (You need to know its exact address in the memory, he indicated them)

I join the question!
Right hereasked about buying abroad
Was it worth it, or was it a price lure?

Guys! Regarding the change ... I’ve once stitched my kpkshnik, radio asked for the last thing, but the time has come when it’s time to take it under warranty, and here’s the problem itself - when I’m requesting it, it gives out my past late ... how to remove this effect ??? HELP !!! :(

Cabass, Daimoned is normal.

let me think up ...: rolleyes:

We need a program that sits in the firmware and serves as "definitely welded contacts" Tobish Ow ...
I think everything possible is possible and impossible too, only for "defined" circles.
Crude example - Multisim 12 rooms where small mikruha can store 12 numbers, where you can delete the old number and add - saying this I do not believe that it is impossible to implement in most windsurfing third party prog, it just costs a lot of effort and money and the To realize this opportunity will not advertise. So actually with imei. I had an example when I imagine the number from your call the same number as there are people took up the phone, said Alo, and then quickly dropped. : Rofl: And prompted me to call myself the fact that my grandmother flew ...

Where would such a coohacker find the current? Here's the problem - if I give it to me - the cops will heat up 100%: yes2:

Theoretically, you can force the bodies to send to another operator without changing it, but xs how to do it)))

-deemON-
So what I say in the store? :))) they will not pay attention to the added numbers ... Nafig them an extra client? :(

Can I have a stupid question? Is the operator on IMEI somehow reacting, besides tracking gray / black? Well, for example, I take and miraculously change IMEI, the operator does not block me? Well, that is. I am even more specific. When I come up with a SIM card, in any phone there is an operator search, when you see your connection to it in the list. According to what parameters does the operator allow his network? Data on the SIM card?

The operator checks on the sim card. But in addition, he writes imei phone in which SIM. If you change, nothing will happen, unless a conflict may arise: They don’t correspond to the device (They don’t just have a set of numbers), or it may be busy

those. If the device is listed as "hijacked" and then it appears on the network of the operator with another sim card, can it be blocked?

+1, on my motorola it changes by literally pressing a pair of buttons on a computer)
