after connection you will find the imei let us see if you can do it
thank you for reaction
but, Unfortunately, I do not know the old IMEI ... : (
The phone's original IMEI is located on the sticker below the battery, at least on my unit.
why change? stolen handset?
There are good reasons to protect IMEI.
Protected by Law... depend on country...
Manufacturer...
Operator use IMEI to block handsets in their networks...
Yep, also stolen handsets can be blocked or identify...
On the other site, big business with IMEI change...
Sometimes user erase IMEI during Unlock or other manipulations... result is IMEI 00000000...
I've only read long time ago. That in India ... :

I'll NOT support IMEI change...
Best Regards
sorry adfree i didn't see this coming
i think he just want to fix it back to its default
i won't refer to your tutorial again without your permission
please forgive me
you mean so much to all the users right here and specially me
@ mylove90
No panic. It's not your fault.
I mean 99,9 % not expect answers from me about IMEI (and Network Unlock).
Because tooo much trouble.
I'm from Germany.
I have no idea about other countries law.
But I'm pretty sure that NOT every one who need IMEI repair is an thief.
Also Software accident can lead to IMEI lost... or some Firmware Modifications, or some Commands... or Tools...
I have no idea, why manufacturer not really protect IMEI. Maybe 1 Chip for IMEI, not eraseable... for instance like oneNAND and RAM in Samsung CPU, but only not rewriteable. Also funny. IMEI on removeable Label...
Harhar.
Best Regards

Hi Guys,
Really like this forum for many smartphones.
Here is my issue : I have a bad wifi chip(Definitely not a software issue, tried everything) and I asked the Samsung service center guy to go ahead and replace the motherboard.
I verified with him that would the IMEI number be changing with a new motherboard and he said that the IMEI number will not change for this phone even if the motherboard is replaced? How is this possible.
Is this guy trying to cheat me by charging me the full price for a new motherboard and ending up not replacing the board at all but instead doing some semi-satisfactory soldering work on the wifi chip to may be get it working temporarily?
Thanks in advance for answering
yep it wont change cuz the imei saved in the efs folder...so probably they have some tool to back it up from old main board and restore it to the new one ( if u are doing at samsung service center but im not sure about outside that )
Samsung Service Centre work is guaranteed...
They dont have tool to bakup efs, they write imei number using a tool on the new mother board. Same way it is done by z3x box.
Motherboards don't come with prebuilt imei from factory they are written on them using tools while packing the phone thats it is possible to write older imei to new/fresh motherboard .... I have worked in service centre they charge very much for their parts but don't do that kind of cheating stuff. You may get your phone's motherboard checked somehwere else to fine out if it's new or not

Am based in Bangalore and am looking for a new motherboard for my note2. Samsung service centre will not look at my phone once it is rooted. How can I buy a original mother board, unusedIf possible cheaper than Samsung ? Local repair guy is asking INR 7500
Thanks in advance

No. I messed with my phone and made IMEI null. went to them and they restored stock TW and still could not get IMEI back. hence said to replace motherboard. I later managed to bring it back without motherboard change. THe point here is that they will replace it happily.
P.S. I did this in bangalore.
Thanks and what was the cost and how long back was this, if you don't mind
My imei number is corrupted.

Here is my another post in different thread.

I managed to restore my IMEI. and till now I have done it several times. Go through posts after my post.
btw can you explain , how did u lose IMEI? Which ROM did u flash?
My old mother board imei no copied to new mother board. How do I check date of written on new mother board
If I have a new mother board replaced in my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 that won't power on, is there a chance I can get my pictures retrieved from that phone (that won't power on)?
The only easy way I know to possibly retrieve the pictures may be to try the motherboard in another working phone.
How was it determined that the motherboard is causing the power-on problem?
Hi
I purchased an LG G3 from a guy on facebook 3 months ago and now he blocked it , went to the police and they said that the phone is reported lost !!!! and can do nothing about it unless it was reported stolen , tried to contacted the guy but guess what he had blocked me already !!! donno his house as was delivered , GRRRR
Is there any way to change the imei so it would work again !!!! spent 320 quid
Please help !!
Regards
Maybe he stole it.
Theres no work around for this except buy a new motherboard.
Seller could have stolen it or reporting as insurance claim.
I am surprised police didn't confiscate the phone.
Should have checked IMEI, asked for original proof of purchase or affidavit for claiming ownership is now passed on to you.
No way out except to sell for parts, have service centre replace the mobo (new imei). Or use it as a wifi device.

Google, LG G3 IMEI Repair, you may find an answer...
Hey XDA Team,
I have a 5x with andoird 6.0.1 and the IMEI is blacklisted (thanks ebay)
Well i managed to root and change the IMEI of the device after a lot of work ( downgrade anroid etc)
So when i check the IMEI with *#06# or under the settings then it shows me the new one, but on this device under settings and SIM i still can see the old IMEI. I guess thats why it is not working. Is there a way to fix it or do i need another SIM card ?
Big thanks in advance
I thing you cant just by a software change IMEI. Only possible way is to change a motherboard, or find someone who makes this kind of stuff.
Given the nature of your question and the lack of help it's illegal to change imei's and nobody on XDA will help you. My apologies for you having been scammed into buying a paper weight. Unless you can found out from the seller why it's black listed. (Stolen, non payment) It's unlikely you'll get it un black listed. Since you already tampered with the phone. No one will help you. In the future if you buy off of eBay, Swappa, Amazon etc.. take special care into looking into the item you are interest in buying. Your only hope of getting it to work is to pay a tech specialist to swap the motherboard with a legal imei and thats gonna cost money. All the best.
Hello , When you send a lg phone for service with issue in motherboard(aka bootloop issue) and they replace it.Service guys associate the new imei and serial number with the old ones ? So if 2 year warranty is over but the new mainboard is much newer, in case of another issue ,for example screen flickering,could we send to it another service center and just don't tell them that the mainboard is replaced?

If im not mistaken it should be from the time they send it back the waranty should basicly be reset. Again if im not mistaken
There have been users send there g4 in multiple times over the last couple years. And ive never heard anyone complain of that.
To make things more clear,
Does service keep record globally to lg the mainboard replacement? So can I claim warranty for screen if passed 2 years from the day I bought it but the replaced mainboard serial number says that I have warranty till August of 2018?Maybe somewhere else from the service shop where I sent it for the bootloop issue because they will not know that mainboard is replaced.
Thanks.

Ill thank that response. That is a very good ? I would like to know that myself.
I was always under the assumption tbat yes any time u send a device in on a waranty and a poce with any kind of serial nums gets replaced the new serial is the new waranty date. I dont think the old imeis are any good any more as people with locked bootloader try to use old unlock bins. Have to update theyre device id and imei with lgs unlock site as their old ones arent reconized any more after mb replacement.

No. Your warranty will not extend to "forever" (if we assume you have a repair once a year.. ) or being reset just because something get replaced. I can speak for Europe only but I don't believe that any other country will do it different. Normally all vendors record the device warranty globally because if not they would loose many money. I say I don't believe but only LG knows for sure.
The bootloop issue is another story. This gets even repaired when outside of warranty e.g. in the USA due to the signed law suit. That's why this is not an issue for the most people.
