how can i change IMEI in Gigabyte G-smart i ?
does unlocking mean changing IMEI ?
however i need changing IMEI of the pda !
the phone OS is "Microsoft Window Mobile 5.0 for Pocket PC Phone Edition(AKU2)"
and complete description is here :
http://www.gsmarena.com/gigabyte_g_smart_i-1759.php
and one question more : is changing IMEI depended on the brand of the pda or it is depended on OS version for PDAs or ... ?
Thanks all for helps ...
it is dependent on the phone the model and the way of storing the IMEI, I dont think there is much info on IMEI changing on this site (and indeed the entire internet) because of the legality of it.
IMEI "repair" is a better way to put it... but its still probably illegal in your country. Use the search function on this site to see the methods used on HTC PDA's and also look around the net for something specific to your PDA. Chances are no other tools for other pda's will work.
Cheers.

Unlocking means that your phone can use any sim card from any gsm company.
It hasn't nothing to do with imei.

u can unlock the device so you can use any other network simcard in your device, however, it is very illegal to change any IMEI of a handset . the only reason really that anyone would want to do this is if a handsert is stolen and someone tries to change the imei before the block signal is sent to that device.
joey jojo ,
It's not only the reason !!!
There are many people having problems with registering their IMEI in Service provider maybe for sudden draft law, so they can't use their device in network if they buy it from another country !
in which case the draft laws mean that it's ilegal
:S
I have not asked if it is illegal or legal , i just wanted to know if it is possible or no , so you can answer to the first question if you know , otherwise please ....

Whatever the legality (and it's not legal), you will not find the information here so please stop asking
Doesn't this forum have Moderators ? so if my thread is illegal , they can delete it and ... , otherwise why you are wasting time and forum bandwidth with not related answers to the question ?
i think it's better to stop it here !

Probably no one will tell you here because, as I understand it, changing the IMEI is illegal.
If the phone works, why change it. If the IMEI is blocked then the phone is probably stolen... Just return it and buy your own.

I known it's illegal, but I find out when I update my radio to 1.41.00.10 from 1.27, my IMEI number have be modified, I don't known why, so, I will modify the numbers to old numbers, because I have a lot of software are registered by old IMEI number.

Most software registration codes are tied to the "Name" under Settings... Owner Information... Identification... or possibly the "Device ID" under Settings.. System... About... -- not to the IMEI.
I'd check these first before you cause yourself too much heartburn...

I'm betting this guy flashed one of the weird WM6 builds that changed the device id's on a few phones. We saw a lot of problems with TomTom, SlingPlayer, and some other apps because of this.
If the user above flashes back to WM5, or to the absolute latest WM6 builds, it will go back to the 'old' hardware id.
But yeah; I've never seen any software tied to the IMEI. Sometimes I wish it was (I'd be happy if it would tie to the IMSI, personally)...

My G3 was reported as stolen (presumably by the seller) shortly after I bought it, so the IMEI was blocked on my network. I sent the phone to the US for repair and, after some hassle and a complaint to Paypal, I received it it by return post almost 6 weeks later. Not sure if I can mention the "repair" company here but PM me for details, if you'd like them.
The phone now works on Edge / 3G but will not connect to any Australian 4G network. I've tried flashing the European (4.4.2) tot and Australian 5.0 tot but the situation persists. In slight desperation, I'll try the Hong Kong tot later today but in the meantime, does anyone know of a solution?
Possibly useful info:
There is no EFS backup.
The (new) IMEI is displayed in Phone Information and with the "06" code entered in the phone.
The model number is D855 (not D855K or any other variant)
The phone was rooted and running (I think) ANHD Lollipop when it was sent in for repair.*
Extensive searching has not produced anything that has been of use.
LTE is available in Network Selection and it sticks after reboot, so no need to use 'hidden menu', delete system files, etc...
* Probably the cause. The only instructions given were to send the phone without SIM or external SD card.
Have you tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54621213&postcount=26
Or this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/mod-root-activate-lte-g3-t2819387
Yes. It's nothing to do with settings, I think. I have LTE in settings, no problem. It just won't connect to any band n the hidden menu (I tried each one). Seems that the Australian LTE bands have been knocked out, somehow.
Just discovered that the phone will not connect to data network if GSM only is selected but GSM/WCDMA will switch between EDGE/3G (H - no H+)
HK .tot file did not resolve the problem.

You are wellcome, this is the way it should be i think. I'm old enough who knows sharing is a must ..
http://www.androidbrick.com/qualcomm-snapdragon-imei-tamiri-ders-4-qualcomm-snapdragon-imei-repair/ , the trick is to "zero" necessary partitions, and put your original imei in an orginal untouched qcn backup of your version. You can see it in the pictures of this article. Your 3 partition that holds this info are 21, 22 and 24.

Improved Android? .. Yes, please! You are wellcome..
My Gemini PDA is suffering from missing IMEIs, due in no doubt to an issue while I was trying to update my device. At present, I have a pure Android installation, which appears to be operating 100% fine (including WiFi). The only issue is that there are two missing IMEIs, so no telephony.
I sadly do not have a backup of NVRAM, so I am presently dead in the water. I have looked at several MTK IMEI writers, but I cannot get anything to work. Much of the software to manipulate MTK-based devices appears woefully out of date.
Can anyone help? I thank you in advance.
I'm assuming you already saw this?

Great news -- I reached out to Planet's support team, and after providing them with a scan of my label (to provide the IMEIs), bluetooth and MAC addresses, they produced an NVRAM file along with detailed flashing instructions.
Kudos to Planet for great support. I have never received this kind of assistance from any other OEM. Needless to say, I immediately signed up at Indiegogo for the Cosmo as a way of saying thanks.

Note that the NVRAM partition is unique to a specific phone, since it includes your IMEI as well as other unique information. I did not try to dissect the file to see how hard it might be to adapt it to another device.
The method on this XDA Thread works fine for me.
I confirmed my Gemini 4G shows my IMEI on Setting->System->About Phone->Status->IMEI Information->IMEI (Slot 1)

I had performed a quick search regarding the...

... and I had located the following link that may not be your exact question but, it looks like it includes information that you may be looking for (though there's a handful of posts there that may/might also be helpful as well).

I couldn't, personally, locate any threads on the XDA Forum but, just because I couldn't locate anything, doesn't mean there isn't anything here.
This is the best guidance I, personally, can provide you with and I'm hoping that it was helpful for you to get what you need.
Good Luck!
