Method to Change QualComm Device IMEI Like Samsung Without Using PC

I can see that some Qualcomm Device users find it difficult to change their Android device IMEI. If any of the previously posted methods did not work for your device, here is another perfect working method.

The method has been tested to work on Xiaomi Redmi 1s, MTNSmart S720, and Samsung Ace 4. It may not work on all Samsung devices, while it works for some.

Disclaimer: Note that Changing IMEI is illegal in some countries, and I will not be held responsible for any consequences that befall the changer. Remember to write down your original IMEI number and keep it safe. Also, backup your original IMEI in case anything goes wrong, you can easily revert back.

  2. Saw this! Thought there's no harm in sharing! MTN users text: app to 131. You will be given 150MB. Then in order to use it to browse in other websites, you'll need simpleserver. Just change injection host & injection query to: nextapps.mtnonline.com.
    Then your Phone's APN to that you use for MTN daily BIS!
    Finish

  3. Good morning oga shelaf I tried the xpose installer but when I try to update frame work it says installation is only possible Manually via recovery now

  4. Will this work on htc phones and do i av to unlock my bootloader for htc one x+.before i can change the imei??

  5. I can't click d install/update on my galaxy Samsung s5 even after rooting and following ur procedures. Thanks for anticipated rapid response

  6. GoodDay Shelaf. Tnx a lot for this wonderful post. We all have been seeking the miracle behind Qualcomm device IMEI tweaking.
    I have a Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 Duos. I downloaded and installed the Xposed Framework installer from your link above. But the install/upgrade button was greyed out. So I went online, downloaded another version of Xposed, and I was able to click the install/update button.
    I then succeeded in installing IMEI changer and enabling it as a module in Xposed.
    I changed my IMEI successfully, but after configuring the Glo APN settings, the Internet never came up. Infact, the network didn't acknowledge the IMEI change by sending "welcome to BlackBerry 9230" which is the usual message I get after every successful change. I then started researching and found out that this technique of changing IMEI only masks the original IMEI, but does not actually change it. So I will be looking forward to some other method that you may discover. Meanwhile thanks for the efforts.

  7. U are most welcome and thanks for this wonderful contribution. But when it masked it accordingly, it suppose to masked d original imei for d network provider machine & work better with d new imei.
    Anyway, your point are noted and i'll make my own research on it too.
