Dear all;
I have a question about the Lenovo P2 and the IMEI. I bought a Lenovo P2 from China with a P2a42 Firmware. The phone works perfectly here in Colombia (covers all 2g, 3g and 4g bands) but it was blocked because the Lenovo P2 is not homologated and to do so, it is necessary to show an FDD certificate (which does not exist). So after days of investigating, I just discovered that the only way to make my Lenovo P2 work again here in Colombia is by changing the IMEI. To do that, I have done the next things:
- Unlocked the bootloader
- Installed the TWRP
- Rooted the phone with magic scan
Now, I think I am near to do my lasts steps, but I have not find information about changing the IMEI in this phone. Do you know something about that? is there any chance to do that?
Thank you very much indeed.

Hi,
As titled, I would like to know if P1C72 ROW, has all lte bands or which lte bands he has?
A ROW rom will only work on a ROW phone, correct? I mean, if the phone is CN won´t accept or work with a ROW rom, or am I wrong?
Thank you

Many have successfully flashed p1a42 firmware (ROW) over p1c72 (CN) including myself. Others have reported that more LTE bands were then unlocked but I can't vouch for that as my LTE carrier also supports some bands already useable by the CN model, so I won't know for sure

Hi All, I have a China purchased P1c72 and updated it and it went pear shaped, I have managed to load a ROM that operates (P1a42_S152_160126_ROW) but it appears to have messed up my sim settings, none been seen, when I do the #### region code thing, it has no option for UK/Ireland...anyone able to help, maybe help me find a ROM or easyimage.zip to get a fix
Fixed.... Restored the qcn in recovery, have the sim working.

Hi guys,
On surfing the web I found a pretty interesting article Chinamobiles - unfortunately only in German according to it, it is possible to flash a second Imei number to a dual sim phone with only one Imei.
Now, I have flashed my single SIM Huawei p9 lite to become dual SIM with a tool from here on xda-developers. Thus I only have one Imei, whereas the original p9 lite dual sim phones have two.
I've found tools here to change the Imei of a phone, but nothing, also not on the web, on how to add an Imei. - Only that it's possible.
Does anyone know a tool to do that?
Has anybody done it or has experience with it?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Seth
I recently got my Moto Z2 Force bootloader unlocked and rooted. I was messing around with a Quick Settings app and found a dual SIM settings. I was wondering if this phone does come in a dual SIM variant or if it could be made into a dual SIM phone I have the T-Mobile Edition.
The wizard was able to launch. the other settings shortcuts are not working they keep force closing.
You can follow the procedure for the Moto Z to modify build.prop and changing out the modem file for the dual sim variant.
Method 1: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/how-to/guide-to-enable-dualsim-singlesim-t3594529
Method 2: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/how-to/guide-dual-sim-mod-signle-sim-moto-z-t3606528
Test it out and let us know what happens. I don't own this device, but if it works, I might own it soon. Remember to make backups.
I look through those links you gave me. I'd be willing to give it a try but there's no official TWRP currently meaning that there is no definite way back if I mess up. If there is dumped images I can Flash with fastboot to recover if something goes wrong I would be willing to give it a try.
The files for the modem are in the same location as the Moto Z and Z play also I need to figure out how I am going to get the second sim to be secured in the sim tray

The second method doesn't require modifying system files and everything is done via fastboot and adb. As far as securing the second sim, could you post what the sim tray looks like? My last Moto device was the Moto X Pure, which was stolen in the Philippines. If anyone in the Philippines wants to help me recover it, please PM me.
Here is what the tray looks like I'll do some testing tonight when I get home
Usually Motorola ships their phones with the same sim tray as their international dual sim variants, except with the second sim slot covered up.
When I was messaging Motorola's support today they said the us version is single sim only but there is a different sim tray for the dual SIM version that is available outside the us. I still have to call in and verify over the phone and see if it can be ordered
So when I called in they said that there is not a dual-sim capable after it's been registered in a US Network and then they wouldn't answer my question if I could even get a dualsim tray so I guess I can't
as i know china version have dual sim

In Italy we have carrier TIM which is selling single SIM (unlocked) @ about 685,00 €.
Unbranded are dual SIM in most of EU markets but prices are high and availability is low: in Italy Amazon sell them @ about 990,00 €, while on other EU markets best prices could be 850,00 €, rarely less....
I've got mine from a *very good* German seller on eBay... they still have one available @ about 715,00 € shipped which is a *great* price to date...
Hello guys.
I have xt1789 03 variant. It's a single Sim but I was wondering what if I put another Sim and give it a try.
I did and it detected another Sim as well.
It was working flawlessly but when I heard that some of the other variant roll out pie update and people are using it.
I try to flash the pie ROM and it flashed successfully but the problem I am getting now is that the IMEI I had on the phone shows 0
I tried to revert it back to stock Oreo and noughat but after flashing I got baseband unknown wifi and Sim signals lost. Even Bluetooth was not working.
I am wondering if there is a way That I could revert it back to Oreo or noughat so I will have the old baseband and working wifi and both the Sims.
Please help me out so I could get my Moto z2 force back to original condition.
Right now what I did for getting the wifi back I flashed the modem NON-HLOS.bin
I lost the sim signals.
Bootloader unlocked
Hi all, I think I already know the answer to my question.... I just want to be 100% sure as my searches are not quite revealing my answer.
Like many...when I received my NA OP9Pro I was disappointed to notice it wasn't dual SIM. Sent it back and still waiting for a refund for almost 2 months now. (That's a frustration with OP in itself...makes me want to go back to Samsung....UGH!) Anyways, I currently have an LE2120 (Chinese Model) running OOS 1.2.5.5BA (European version) and I am well aware that out of the box the NA version does not come with Dual SIM hardware.
The question that I am not 100% sure of is would the software build still allow dual SIM? My gut strongly tells me no..
The reason why I ask is that currently I don't have access to 5G. I thought it was because my work SIM didn't have 5G enabled on the carrier, I was incorrect. I still don't have access to a 5G, just shows 2G/3G/4G. I thought maybe it is because I am using a EU build here in Canada where maybe the bands don't line up...I have done searches on why 5G isn't available but nothing seems to fix it.
Just a shot in the dark...for people much smarter than I am!
No, simply running EU rom on NA hardware does not enable dsds. You can setprop for dsds but it doesn't work properly, seems to wire the first sim card into both slots and cause a conflict
Maybe I didn't word my question in the correct fashion.
I have dual SIM hardware, in my case it is the Chinese Version but I'm told the hardware doesn't differ as it still a Global Version.
The question is NA ROM, on Dual SIM hardware. If the rom itself supports it. I would just try it, but then I have to wait for the next update.
If you have LE2120, then the EU build should get you dual sim
I have LE2120 and I'm switch to Oxygen OS and trying build AA/BA/DA all working with sim dual
About 5g .. i have same your problem no option 5g only 2g/3g/4g
First check your country bands support
First try:
*#*#4636#*#* and choose NR/LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA if not fix 5g
Another way to fix:
I'm fixed 5g same steps its was on op8p
Sorry about english

So you have tried your LE2120 on AA? Dual SIM is all working ok?
I feel like switching to AA would get me unto the proper bands here in my country, but leary to do it because then I have to wait to the next build. Unless I decide to go root/magisk.
I did try the *#*# method, but that doesn't do anything. I have tried several different dialers and it never brings up this menu everyone talks about.

Any status on AA working with dual sim? I see that you never responded. I have the new .7 OTA update, but still hesitant to put it on if I loose dual sim
