Please ensure you have got a correct valid IMEI number and backups are in place, otherwise you will not be able to make any call on your cell phone. Or just search and replace it in one step.įinally, restore your backup, and type *#06# to check if it works.
Once you find it, replace with your new *valid* IMEI number in above format. But there’s a little trick before doing that, I will give an example below. Make sure you have other backups before proceeding to the next step. Once you are done with the backup, fire up Winhex and open the QCN file you just saved. Remember to save that backup elsewhere in case you need to restore it. There you will be able to backup QCN, it should be done in a few minutes. Now click start clients and select software download. After that the program will show your SOC model like MSM8974. Then open QPST->QPST Configuration->Ports, select add new port, then enter the port number you wrote down earlier and click OK. When you are all set with the installation and connect your handset, go to device manager and you will see the serial port like COM8, write that down. Did not try Win 8 or Win 7 64-bit versions. I tried it on Win 7 32 bit and they all worked great. Then download and/or install QPST and Winhex.
That is why it can get those bricked phones back while others can’t.īefore we start, you need to get the driver installed on your PC. This program is able to write directly to the bootloader and baseband. If you have ever read my post about Qualcomm qusb_dload fix, then you should know it. I myself tested it on LG G2 and a few handsets made by Chinese OEMs which have the same SOC. With a single program, we should be able to do that. Since Qualcomm Snapdragon took over the Android world, it’s time we find a way to change the IMEI number on all Android devices powered by Snapdragon SOCs, and I do find a solution. While TI and Nvida exited the mobile SOC market. With the rise of Android, Qualcomm SOCs also dominated the flagship and mid-tire phones.
Tizen and Fire OS are struggling to make a dent. Symbian and BlackBerry almost disappeared, iOS and Android dominated the mobile space. I once introduced how to change the IMEI number on various devices across various platforms.
