Please do any one help me with this issue.
Thanks in advance..
Dear All,
Few months I bought a Samsung S6 Edge+ which is from a unknown person. It was a T-mobile package. But, now it's imei is blacklisted. So it's showing "null imei" & "baseband unknown". & It's can't recognize any network.
So, I am asking for your help. Can anyone let me know the solution for these problems, please?
Waiting for your answer.
Thanks
It's illegal to change the IMEI in most country's regardless of how you came to have the phone its technically not yours
Pls HELP Bro , My samsung S5 is g900v Made in China. Im Testing All Samsung Secret codes it Not Working , im confused it fake or genuine (im tested codes *#0*# , *#06# , *#197328640# Almost codes checked but not Respond not work pls Help
What does your phone say under battery on the sticker
secret codes don't work after kitkat on nonrooted g900v phones.
Build prop files are unreliable for phone identification and easily changed

Camera is usually pretty bad on Chinese clones. Compare resolutions of sensors and pictures from internet and try to use 1080p60 recording (check framerate - I suggest mx player)

How can the phone model at the about section of my phone display SM-G900F while at the recovery and Odin mode it shows G900W8? How am I supposed to know the right model to flash if I want to upgrade the Android version from 4.4.2 to marshmallow?

Easiest way is to turn off the phone, take out the cover, remove battery and read the white label.
By the way, when I replied to your last post, it would have been polite to inform back if my suggestion was helpful or not.

Thanks for the reply. But how is it possible for different model software to be installed on a phone? All of the system applications show sm-g900w8 in Titanium backup and the label at the panel too shows sm-g900w8. My concern actually is if this is normal or the phone is just messed up. A quick analysis of the IMEI using the online IMEI analyser shows both sm-g900f and sm-g900w8 on the about section of the phone.
I'm sorry. I'm a bit new to this xda of a thing and the whole is a bit frustrating and overwhelming at times

My IMEI number is actually 352308061127388

As your phone is labelled - G900W8 what also is confirmed by the IMEI then no doubt what stock firmware you should flash. If "About the phone" info shows G900F it would mean that somebody meesed up by flashing different firmware (data from built.prop system file is used to display phone model in the settings).

Ok, but how do you explain the 'sm-g900f' showing at online IMEI analyser? When I checked the IMEI online, it was showing both g900f and g900w8. Here's a copy of the information obtained from IME info site about the phone's imei:
Information about your phone
Model: G900F Galaxy S5 (SM-G900W8)
Brand: SAMSUNG
IMEI: TAC: 352308 FAC: 06 SNR: 112738 CD: 8
In addition to this, here's what is also written on the same label that has sm-g900w8 as the phone's model:
IC: 649E-SMG900T
Making the third model that this ****ing phone has?

When I checked your IMEI on samsung IMEI checker it says: SM-G900W8.
Also, what is "IC" on your phone's label? I have following fields: "Model", "FCC ID", "SSN" etc. I don't have any "IC".

Infact, I don't know what that IC means too. Can I have the link to the Samsung IMEI checker? The website that showed up when I googled didn't display anything after entering the imei. The website nane is imeipro. Again, how could two websites show different information about an imei? imei.info shows the phone is both g900f and g900w8 but tend towards g900f in the details provided. Can someone even trust those imei sites?

To be honest you are digging too deep for this. I would just rely on what is written on the phone's label: "Model".
Here you have what I checked but I wouldn't rely on the checkers too much:

By the way if I were you I would remove the IMEI number from your previous post - it might be not safe to publish it.

Thanks, I think I'll just go for the g900w8. I appeared to be digging too much about this because I'm wary of bricking my phone. Thanks for all the helps
Hi,
I wanted to give my international n910f to my granmda in turkey, the problem is that currently the turkey takes huge fees to use german phones in their country permanently, I heard there is a Method whith which I can change the Imei of the phone to an existing old phone from turkey, I Know I have to edit the qcn file and for that I need qpst, but Qpst does not find my phone.
Is there any alternative method for that maybe someone here can help me I would be really glad.
Can no one help me with this?
I also need to edit / restore my IMEI number in SM-N910c variant
After flashing a Custom ROM the singnals are gone I can't make calls
I've read and followed many things but no luck still
There are few computer software like Octaplus Box and Samsung Pro Tools etc...
Can someone guide me how to edit IMEI number using these programs?
