Hey there everyone! I've bought 3 phones recently 2 of which off eBay and all three unluckily ended up being stolen i think as they are all blacklisted (in Australia).
I am so surprised that everywhere i look i can't find anyway to change the IMEI of the phone which is the code that Phone Companies use to black list phones. All i see is that "its illegal" and all that.... so is 3/4 of the other stuff that is said on these and other forums hahaha!
Does anyone have any knowledge of changing the IMEI. I have an old brick phone i don't really use much anymore, i thought about using that IMEI in the blacklisted phone i used (I am aware only 1 connection with that particular IMEI can be used at a time - but i only need one phone to work!!!)
I did find this guide to retore IMEI: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881162
With this separate video suggested in the guide: [media=youtube]JqLK_2I-SBM[/media]
^^ However in / i cannot find the folder named /EFS anywhere to complete the steps. The phone i am trying to get to work atm is a Android, Motorola Xt502 (smart phone).
Any help would be COMPLETELY APPRECIATED, If your gonna say its illegal and not help me i dont care dont waste your time! Besides i paid full price for all the 3 phones and they came with boxing etc... I have tried contacting eBay and the sellers with no success! So this is my next option! Use MY old phone for MY new phone and no one will know. THANKS!
