Change IMEI On A Rooted HTC Phones And Non MTK Devices by tunnex190(m): 7:25am On Aug 09, 2014
This is a tutorial on how to change imei on a rooted htc phone.
Method 1:
Use google to search on how to root your phone. If your phone is already rooted then you can continue with this
steps. Google search for android sdk tools and download it. Now most htc phones can go to the bootloader by
putting off your htc phone then power it on while holding the volume down button and it will boot to the bootloader,
connect ur phone to your pc with your cable and click on fastboot- The volume is used to navigate and the power
button is used to select your option. When on your fastboot, click on computer and search "cmd" which means
command prompt. It will open the command prompt window. Then type "fastboot getvar imei" it will display your
current imei. Type "fastboot oem writeimei 35xxxx" the 35xxx stands for the blackberry imei u want to use. U will
get a success report. Now you can reboot your phone and enjoy your new imei.
Method 2:
To change IMEI on non MTK device, just download MTK Droid tool and MT65xx USB Driver so that your PC can
identify your phone. Once that is done, just run the Droid tool and wait for it to detect your phone. On the upper
side of the interface, click Phone information.
Now you can see a Tab for IMEI /NVRAM. Just click it and you can easily change your IMEI from there.
NOTE: Make sure you backup your IMEI in case you want to revert it back to the old one.

Now, you can rock your phone with GLO BIS that only work on changed IMEI MTK Devices.

1st, What's your phone model?
2nd, I've never seen an imei that starts with zero
3rd, it seems you've altered your imei? If yes, you may have to change back-that is if it's still possible
