IMEI Number does not match - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there!
I'm planing to buy a Note 4 from a guy. The phone is brand new with box which is brought from Germany, N910F.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/sxhc33kso5bv32h/AvWBiQgaFQVK8DPIV5n3VHnWkMLkG9SqNZDb2GSbvyKX.jpg?dl=0

https://www.dropbox.com/s/lv46p1ymv63pf2h/AhnMYhQ3GbaEnhSa3gXAjIdBnaKKkMj4dnN2416P4kXZ.jpg?dl=0
The thing is when I check it's imei (the seller sent me a clear picture showing imei on the box), it says that the imei is a old nokia phone. (imei.info) I tried couple of different phones, 5 different android phones, and I only got one phone which does not match, LG G3. ı know that it's a legal phone, my friend bought it from a samsung store. So the thing is, do you guys think that that Note 4 is fake? Or is there a problem about website since it shows LG G3 as a old phone?
I want to make sure everything is ok about this phone before paying alot!
Thank you!

Can you call Samsung? They may be able to confirm whether this the IMEI of a legit Note 4. The website could be wrong, surely. But before purchasing, it's worth investigating. Good luck!

Ok thank you guys! That helped alot and I will surely investigate...

Just checked my IMEI as well, and it shows up as an old nokia. I have bought my phone through carrier contract, and i highly doubt they are selling fake and/or stolen phones.

The one the user posted is not a fake HDC phone.
It's a genuine HTC phone which was made specifically for China. So this is not a fake and it's 2GB RAM.
I don't know but this is pretty common right now on China. Even sony released a special edition of their new flagship there with a customized hardware also.

not bad specs, except the 1600mah battery.
There's a Chinese version of the HTC One (a version, not a fake) with dual SIM and MicroSD support. It's model 802w. You can see it in pdadb: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=4408&c=htc_one_802w_htc_m7
are you serious?? so why didnt this make it to the US?

This is probably the worst part of the fake one:
Talk Time: 3-4 hours
This is the spec from the real one:
Talk time:
Up to 18 hours for WCDMA
Up to 19 hours for CDMA
Up to 27 hours for GSM
Top Brands don't want to release their flagship phones in Dual SIM for European and US markets, but they are quite common in China and another Asian markets. There's also a Dual SIM Version of the Samsung Galaxy S4 for the Asian Market.

china purchase???
Hi there guys, so Im really interested in buying a HTC One from china especially with the simCard, does anyone know a decent website to purchase it from, has anyone already purchased from a reputable website?
Also, a real newbie question, if I by from china to uk the phone will work fine over here right, or will I have to wipe it and install a the latest ROM etc??
Thanks
Looks like it's not LTE though.

The ROM is not going to change any radio frequencies. So I'm not sure if you'll get high speed in Europe.

Not only that, but I'm pretty sure installing any ROM that's not based off of the Chinese one might not boot or just won't read the Micro SD card slot. The stock Chinese ROM most likely won't have English as a language as well.
HTC one official website, dual sim with micro-sd slot http://bit.ly/10FRgNa
thx for the replies guys.....so basically I cant buy it from china and expect it to work correctly over in the UK
How about the 64gb developers edition from the US?

Honestly I'd contact indiegogo and tell them what's going on and ask how you can get a refund. I've not donated to them before that I can recall, so I'm not sure how their policies go. Sorry I can't be more help in that department.

Not necessarily vapor. The watch exists, it's just not what they claim it is. It's not made by them, it's made by a different company under a different name. And it's cheaper than they're selling them for. So, not vapor, but I'd call it a scam in my book.

Dont you find it at all suspicious and the fact a lot of their promo photos are photoshopped to have the watch on them too.
I would love for this to be legit but im really worried about not getting the watch I paid for. I dont want a refund IF indiegogo will refund me if it does turn out to be a scam since you seem sure it isnt a scam.
Hope to hear from you soon thanks.

ZTE Blade S6 All You Need To Know

Hello,
today I want to introduce the new smartphone from ZTE.
It's the ZTE Blade S6.
The main specs are a 5inch 720p Display, 2gb Ram and 16gb Rom and the storage is expandable. It is a DualSim phone (Nano simcard) with DualStandby and supports 4G LTE, too.
It comes with the brand new Snapdragon 615 (MSM8939) octacore processor clocked at 1,5GHz and the 64bit technology.
As you can see on the pictures below it is very thin with only 7,7mm and has small bezels around the screen. The back of the phone looks similar to the iPhone 6 with a 13mpx shooter from Sony (IMX214), a led flash, the ZTE branding and the loudspeaker. On the right side there is the volume rocker and the power button. On the other side are the sim trays and the place where you can put the micro SD-card inside. The USB-charging port is on the bottom and the 3,5mm headphone jack on top of the phone.
The overall look is very clean with round edges and handy sizes.
On the front of the phone you can see the 5inch HD Display and a blue homebutton you maybe already know from other ZTE devices like the Nubia Z5S, Z7 or ZTE V5. The front camera has 5mpx and should be perfect for some selfies.
The phone also supports some Smart Sense, which lets you launch apps like the music player or flashlight with gestures like flicking your wrist.
Very special is that the ZTE Blade S6 comes with Android 5.0 Lollipop and ZTE's own MiFavor 3.0 UI. The Google PlayStore is pre installed and it supports multilanguage. You can order the phone in two colors (silver, matte pink).
mod edit: Advertising for 3rd party vendors is against XDA rules

I will get one phone in the next 1-2 weeks and then I will write a full review of this phone, so stay tuned.
Update: Gearbest has sent me a new coupon code that I would like to share with you.
Code: ZTES6JY
-> Blade S6 costs 214,99$ with shipping from Germany. So it is very interesting for the customers from Europe because they don't have to pay taxes.
Iphone Look Alike
Looks Like iPhone.Well, after sales support is my only concern .
I really like the design, too and the specs look very nice. The Snapdragon 615 should have enough power and an HD screen is enough for 5inch. I hope that the battery will last a whole day or even a bit more.
I don't have any experience with after sale support, so I can't tell you something about it but ZTE is a nig brand and so I think there won't be any production issues.
looking at the frequency this phone should work on the rogers network in canada right? Is it unlocked from the factory?
Yes, it comes definately unlocked but please check the network used by rogers by your own. I'm not an expert and don't want to say something wrong.
I have updated Post 1#.
From today on the phone will be sent out and I hope that I will receive my phone next week.
I'm also waiting for Blade S6...I payed it 263usd but today you can get it for 249 on AliExpress... if there is any root guide, please share...
As posted above you can get it with an coupon code from gearbest for 234$, which I think is a good price for a Snapdragon phone from a big brand.
They dont sell to north america in this sale..
I thought they would sell worldwide.

Now is Chinese New Year and probably they will ship after New Year, I am still waiting for shipment details also
@naruto42 I get my phone from gearbest. The shop link is in post 1. My Blade S6 is at the moment stuck at the customer center in Germany. I hope that I will receive it this week.
I already got mine here in germany! Any ideas for gaining root?
Have you tried Framaroot?
yes, unfortunately its not working.
Tried: Framaroot, SRSRoot, Saferoot, iRoot, OneClickRoot, Eroot, Root Kit.
OneClickRoot submitted some data, maybe they can work something out?!
I will try to root it if I receive my phone. I have googled for ZTE Blade S6 root and the result was an instruction to Eroot.

My Galaxy S10 = FAKE

About six months ago I purchased a fake 512GB Samsung Galaxy S10 plus for $800 off eBay..
I had no idea it was fake until a few days ago after watching YouTube videos on fake S10’s...
It looked soo legit when it arrived and the nice packaging...
Live and learn....
I have not been able to update the phone since I bought it...
Is it possible to update a fake Galaxy S10?
What would anyone else do if they were in my position?
So it's one of those Chinese knock offs? Is it even running Android 10 and One Ui 2?

It’s still on Android 9... SM-9750 Chinese...... I wish I could find the China man that sold me this.
SM-9750 is a real Samsung model number. It's the Hong Kong variant I want to say. How do you know it's a copy?

I downloaded a Benchmark app called: AnTuTu Benchmark .app..... It a great app and it told me my phone was fake...
Under settings my serial number is: 123456789abcd... Another sign that my sign that my phone is fake.
Hmm it's possible it might be a hacked phone meaning they hacked the crap out of Android and made everything look legit when it's not. Or it could be a copy. If it's running Samsung firmware with one UI you should be able to flash the latest Samsung firmware with Odin.

Yeah most times if serial numbers don't match like that it's fake and best way to find out is use cpu z and antutu and look into hardware info cpu has to be the qualcomm snapdragon 855 if it's the chinese version if it's like MPD or MTD something something random then yeah it's fake sometimes it will show you the real memory size it's supposed to be 8GB i can't remember fakes ones have less sometimes 1GB or something.
Sorry you got duped bro

Why not simply check samsung warranty here:-
https://imei24.com/imei_check/Samsung/
Will tell you serial, both imei numbers etc and warranty status

The IMEI checker says the Brand is Samsung and Black List is Clean whatever that means..
If it gives you serials numbers and matching imei's regardless if single or dual sim, is real.
Blacklist means if it shows BLACKLISTED it means the previous owner has reported the phone lost or stolen for an insurance claim, or not paid rest of bill, thererfore the network provider block the imeis from operating, aka no calls, texts or data ONLY wifi can be used.
And other easy way to test is to do a software update or manually via odin, download official software.

Ok, thanks.... In the app “ AnTuTu Benchmark” .app it tells me my phone is fake...Cool little app...
Thanks for all your help..
I hope I can update this S10 to Android 10.
Sounds like it's a hacked phone more so than fake to to me. You might be able to flash the latest firmware and everything reset to normal depending on if China messed with the internal circuits or not.
