Hey guys!
I am quite a newbie at this, I have a Note II which I tought I lost and I locked by imei with my network supplier.
Now I found it, but they say they can't unlock it because the phone is not registered on my name. ( Nasty Ex Girlfriend )
I was told that is possible to change the IMEI number with any old phone I don't use anymore and that way would work again, is it right?
I just don't have a clue how to do it.
can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance

Hello everyone. I recently bought a htc diamond off of craigslist and I brought it into my cellphone provider to have it activated but they could not program my phone number into it. I called the guy who sold me the phone and he said that it had be unlocked and has an updated software. How do I program my phone number into the phone so that I can receive calls?

This is so strange, I have never heard of anything like this.
Do you mean it is locked to some network? What happens when you put your sim card inside the phone? Does it ask you for an unlock code, or does it work normally?
Answer these questions and maybe someone might be able to help you.
Mine is a CDMA version. I know the it was unlocked and flashed, but there must have been an error because when I tried to change the msid to my number it would say it was updated then it would shut off and not turn back on. I flashed it back to the original bell rom, but now I need the mastercode to get into it. Unless I can re flash it with a different rom to change it that way. before I flashed it I could click on an icon that said phone codes and edit my msid that way, but now that i have factory settings I cant edit anything.
Hello, I recently bought a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 2 off of ebay, I put in my sim card and it doesn't read it. Originally i thought it was a hardware problem but when i typed *#06# It said IMEI Null/Null. Is there anyway i can possibly get this removed so I can use the phone? It is not rooted but I am willing to root it if it is needed to fix the problem, Thanks

Google IMEI guy there are ways to fix it but you got to do a little research. Also have you tried to use Kies and flash some official software over what you have. Also have you tried a factory reset? You have not listed any thing you may have done to remedy your issue so we can eliminate them

Hi guys, sorry to have my first post as a cry for help but I'm really struggling and a friend has pointed me in the direction of the forum to try and solve it. I have an LG G3 855 which is running Cyanogen custom ROM (rooted and sorted by my ex Brother-In-Law, hence I have lost my 'technical support' now). Problem is, I've just left Vodafone as I'm fed up of them ripping me off. Phone is mine and has been from new on contract, now 3 years old, and is locked to Vodafone I assume as I can't get my new GiffGaff sim to work in it. I've obtained an unlock code from a webiste for the princely sum of £9 but dialling 2945#*855# to get me to the menu doesn't work, so I have an unlock code but no way of actually entering it !!
I do have a vodafone sim which is still live to use if required (my works phoneline as my personal number has now ported to GiffGaff), so I can have the phone live on vodafone if required but I need to get to the right menu to enter the number. I'm fearful that the menu no longer exists as the stock ROM is no more?
Any help very greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Mike
