Nexus 5 imei change - GSM-Forum

kovbal · 03-02-2015, 22:10

Dear Forum members,

We have a Nexus 5, which had network issues, and the crazy stupid company who we bought from has change the imei, after they declined to repair, because the phone was rooted (nonsense), and the end of the imei is now 456321 (which is obviously made up). Official LG serivce center said to complete the RMA, but the imei should be restored. Please let me know,what possibilites do I have. I don't want to burn money on an octopus box, just for this operation, as I'm pretty out of gsm business (my last box was an UFS HWK...). Or anybody, who can help me with this in Hungary.

Thanks,
KovBal

Use Octopus LG tool. Works 100% and tested by me.
