to reprogramming the u601 imei storage ic

Hey guys, I found this forum as I was searching for a solution to the following problem: I have an iPhone 5 and after changing the back housing, I lost the IMEI and the modem firmware. So, it is always "Searching" and doesn't say "No SIM" always searching whether or not the SIM card is in. Which IC should I fix and how? Can I fix it by heating the IC to what degree and how long? Or should I reflow it, what degree?

Assuming that it is U601, I shot a video of my IC. Please watch this in high quality in full screen, pause when needed.

youtube .com / watch?v=kLpMoR3pkNg (it doesn't let me post link, because I don't have 10 messages in the forum yet)

Is this the correct one? It didn't seem damaged to me. What do you think? I don't want to lose my jailbreak and stuff on my HDD IC. I need advice, I'd appreciate your help. Kind Regards.

hi
u601 Nor (imei) work in pair with bb cpu and nand ..

if you need replace it you must replace bb cpu and nand from another phone ...
i'm sorry i think the only solution ..

IMEI is stored inside the nor (U601) if it is damaged no alternative.

which one was it? u501 (big one) or u601 (little one)?

qwertybasse · 12-18-2015, 19:57

dizzynonum read my comment 14/12/15 . You need a tool programmer to fix imei on a new u601

dizzynonun · 12-18-2015, 23:05

sellers of that thing didn't reply to my inquiry. they don't understand english well. only thing they wrote me was: "what can i help you?" also i witnessed them deleting comments from the video, which reveal that thing is fake.

i need info from a person with real experience.

all speculations.

where is imei stored? half of guys say it is u601, other half say u501.

i'll not act fast, i'll keep it until i get certain information and confirmation from other technicians.
