So if I change eeprom from one phone to another, then I would get new IME on both phones? Would they work, because if you flash to wrong part of eeprom you get different IME but no signal ???

you cannot change the original imei.only *#06# so the phone isn't going to work when you load the eeprom data to another phone.

Hi, if you want change IMEI, you must write flash, eeprom data from other phone and also change COBBA chip, so you have to loose one phone to repair another,no clones!!! Osvaldas
