![]() ![]() Before we start, let’s give you a clear idea of the IMEI number. In this article, we will discuss changing the IMEI number. Such as unlocking your device, tracking your device, stopping someone else from using it if it’s lost or stolen, etc. You can do so many things by using the IMEI number. ![]() It is one of the most important information about a device. Screw AT&T, I will drop their service soon.IMEI number is a very well-known subject when it comes to mobile phone technology. for thus we come in to the world, if we are not willing to get in trouble for a just cause, then we are not worthy of a name." In Uncle's Tom Cabin there is a passage to the effect (I am quoting loosely by memory). Unfortunately some people think that non-conformity to powerful corporations is somehow wrong. Some shady people do it for bad reasons, but nothing is wrong is you are not attempting anything illegal, but solely asserting your rights to use YOUR devices the way you want, NOT the way some jerk at the corporate levels of AT&T decided that you can. There is nothing illegal per se on changing an IMEI. We'll see what I can find.īy the way, Faking an IMEI is illegal in UK, but it is perfectly legal in the US. ![]() Although I read that that application seem to have stopped working. I leared about Ziphone for old iphones, which is probably more than what I need anyway, also FAKE APN. That's why I returned the phone, now I can actually buy any model that will be easier to fake IMEI. Now I am interested in finding a phone that I can easily fake the IMEI number. I was tempted to retain the device as a mini-tablet, but I actually need a phone. Which demonstrates that I am NOT using any AT&T services when I only use WiFi and that their practice of automatically signing you up for a data plan and total BS. ![]() The phone still accessed my WiFi and I could navigate the internet. After the phone said: "SIM not provisioned MM #2", which I think means no cell service. After removing my SIM from the phone, I put an old one that I used to have many years ago. I think they have a lot of that, except for the lambs like TC25 who seems to think that their forcing people to plans they don't want or ask for, is nice of them.Īnyway, little update. Funny though, next to me was a guy returning a phone exactly for the same reason (forcibly and without permission being signed up for an ATT data plan). Let's ATT suck up their open phone and sell it so some other poor sap at a discount. The reason for #3, I have a job now and not enough time to hack around like in the old days. Option 3 it was, it was simpler, and now I am free to find a phone that I can fake the IMEI easily. Returned Phone searching for Phone that I can to fake IMEI nowĬorrect. There are very good legal and justified reasons why you might want to change your IMEI. I wish I could find more about changing the IMEI number without so much assumption that everybody is trying to use a stolen phone. There is no way I will pay those sneaky Bs! to encourage them to find other ways to screw me and everybody up.Įnough said. Return the idiotic phone to Walmart and be defeated by corporate greed and stupidity (make no mistake that idiotic rule was made consciously to screw people and maximize profits). Unlock the phone and move to T-Mobile and give them the middle finger (but I don't prefer Tmobile because I am in a family plan to help my sister pay her bills). (preferred) Change IMEI to a non-smartphone and show them my middle finger. I paid full price for that phone, it is MY phone not them and they shouldn't be able to tell me how to use it. They only removed the stupid plan, once I put the SIM card back on my old Razr phone. I am highly aggravated that those rats force such crap down my throat. Never mind, I never asked for one or wanted one. When you put your SIM and turn on the phone, then look up the IMEI number if the number belongs to a Smartphone they sign you up for a data plan. I never used their data, I only used the phone and my own WIFI. All was good, I was accessing internet using my WiFi at home, then I receive a text message saying: "did you know a data plan is required fro your Smartphone? We have added an appropriate data plan". And I put in my AT&T non-contract SIM card. I bought a pay an AT&T Avail Go Phone in Walmart for $130+$10 tax. The reason I want to change the IMEI of my phone is to avoid AT&T arbitrary rule that "if the phone I am using is a smartphone, then we will sign you up for a data plan automatically". ![]()
