[mazdaspeed_FC]

ok i try to change imei using divusb4 for my T616, it works, but then my phone is locked afterwards... the locks are all closed and it says 0 beside it

after i unlock my phone, it reverts back to the original imei

i am confused, how do i change imei successfully, and have unlocked phone?

Hi mazdaspeed FC

You need to write patched flash file to handset as it has OTP IMEI stored in flash ic

Upload an new GDFS file after changing the IMEI ..

i changed imei, thne uploaded a new gdfs, it didnt work, still returned "insert correct sim card" and when i go into service menu, 4 locks closed and says 0 beside each lock... after i clear sp locks, it unlocks the phone, but reverts back to original imei

make sure that you've upload AVR and ARM flasharea .. then change imei

First you need patched flashfile for div it should be called imei_ota.something uploade it to phone then change imei after that open locks if not already open. but hey why do you want to change imei ?`and ooo yea one more thing reflash Gdfs to.

where can i get the imei_ota? so i just put this in the same folder as div usb4 and it will work fine? its a long story... friend thought phone was stolen... he report it stolen so imei is barred... he found the phone and now he cant use it very stupid

ok these instructions i found for t610
- write original gdfs file(if you want)
- flash your phone by patched AVR (R1L013 or R6b) and ARM of the same version
- change IMEI

now i have a t616, where can i get the patched avr file?

[mazdaspeed_FC]

i even flashed my phone to a t610, used the patched firmwire, changed the imei, and flashed back to t616, but the imei gets reverted back still

i need a PATCHED T616 firmwire...
uploading gdfs did not help

Hehehe... :-D

You can`t change IMEI in OTP area..... so you must use patched firmvare all time, reflash original FW - it`s wrong step.
And reload GDFS don`t change IMEI, but correct some bugs.

Use only patched FW

The patched file for T616 (850/1900) isn't in none website, any have it??

[gee4234]

i have a SE 616 that needed the IMEI changed i am using DIV and terminator
i have could not find a patched firm for the 616 so i converted the phone to a 610 with patched firm and was able to change the IMEI the phone works perfectly except for that i lost my 850mhz..problem is that i am in south america Argentina to be exact and we use 850 primarily is there any way i can use the 610 firm and and get back my 850?
thanx

u have to flash bak to t616, and when u do, imei will be reverted back to original.
