My Phone will arrive grom china with an IMEI in 86xxxxxxxxxxxx. This causes problems to connect in 3G in FRANCE.

Is there a way to change it, especially change 86 in 35 ????

I heard that IMEI could be changed to any number as you wish by a tool. At least LG SU640 could do this. But we could do nothing without root.:D

chinese custom rom summary (pls view with google transalte~ or can ask me~)

http://lqfljf201.blog.163.com/blog/static/3692803320121126104812584/

Greetings,

I have tested a chinese custom room, there are few functions quite user friendly :-

1. Once on the wifi, it will either auto connected the save network or go to the wifi setting promptly (instead of must go to the wifi setting manually)

2. The top bar setting is very nice. It contain almost all switchable toggle. The existing only provide fixed 5 toggles.

For your custom room, here are the feedback

Problems

1. SD card recognition problem. keep restart if i use gps software. and it hardly detect my 32gb Transcend micro sd class 10, whereby others custom room has no problem. Each restart it will go back eMMC, i have to unmount and mount it back only work.

2. Phone number recognition, it won't detect and combine for the same number with and without international code. example, i save a number +6012 345 6789, when i dial 012 345 6789, it show differently. my previous phone has no problem for it.

Pro:-

1. this rom has no problem for google service. gdocs no problem. thumb up~

Hi,

my phone has different colors while it's charging. It starts at red (i am not sure right now), continues to some kind of orange and it ends at green.

With camera sound maybe you can replace shutter.ogg with the modifiend one (you can make new file shutter.ogg but it will not content any sound- somethink like blank).

It doubt that you can use U8950D Roms on other versions, as you note your self the build number is different, and some of the hardware is different.

You should of cause be able to use the same CWM Recovery and maby some of the fixes.

Instruction is correct.

Check your SD card, and a folder with the update.

Try replacing the SD card or reformat the FAT32 https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/

Pink screen is most likely a sign of fastboot (pressing only power and volume -).

You can start update with System settings-Storage-Software Upgrade-SD card Upgrade.

Many and many thanks with everybody and of course Masslakoff and Fromwon

I found several mistake(according me) follow the istructions for the upgrade to original firmware ver. XXXXXXXX949

The operation at the start pushing the volume (+ and - ) + power buttons (for my phone) not start!

I find one other procedure to install the original firmware...

copy update.app in dload (folder) if not have create in your Sd card dload folder!

for example sd\dload\update.app

In the Phone's menu enter in System settings ....storage (memory)..... upgrade software... upgrade from sd card

ad the upgrade start ...

And one other things that i see is that ..when i upgrade customer firmware vers 1.6.2 when i run it in the cmw boot i read that is not write 1.6.2 but 1.6.1 ......try also you!...look....

But when i see after upgrade ..in the settings menu.....phone...i see upgrade ver 1.6.2!

I think that Masslakoff have forget to write the correct version!

But is everythings go well !!!!!!
