How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.

0) Your phone must be Rooted and have an Xposed application

If you don't know how to install Xposed and do Root, then maybe this tutorial is not for you. If you think you will know how to Root and install Xposed, read THIS article and install Xposed from THIS link.

1) Installation of Xposed module

You will need an Xposed module. Install "Xposed IMEI Changer" from THIS link for free. Enter the Xposed application and enable the module. Restart the phone (it can also be a soft reboot).

2) Save the old IMEI number

Enter the phone settings, then in the section "About the phone" and then in the "Status" and see what the IMEI is. Write it down somewhere.

3) Replace with new ones

Open the application and enter the desired IMEI number in the field. If you want to enable a random set of the IMEI number on each new request, you will need the PRO version. As I said, the change is temporary and the PRO version of the app will automatically change the IMEI for you. Now all you have to do is click "Apply" and the new IMEI has been saved!

4) Check

Repeat step 2

I disclaim any liability for any damages and consequences, for the device and/or the user, due to the use of information and tools from this article. You do everything at your own risk!

Mobile Browsers

The Internet on mobile devices is becoming more popular and has more and more users. As mobile internet expands, so do mobile browsers.
