In fact, it's not replaced. Because my friend has 2 machines with the same imei as listed above. I guess they clone the rom, or IMEI change it.

Imei Problem

We think you are X01HT already

change motherboard with another case,

because very difficult to change imei except if have software about it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] khammo01:
It is legally impossible for two phone in the same world to have the same IMEI...

Go to Settings/System/Device Information/Identity - do you see the same number?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Olipro:
IMEI is aggregated in both cases from the radio; if this is true, HTC screwed up on a batch of phones when programming them.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] venery:
Don't believe its HTC

I don't think this is HTC fault it should be a changed board or IMEI. Although it is illegal to change it everybody knows it is not impossible (I don't know if its possible to change the imei of hermes but for wizard it was.)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
is not HTC; there's a company in asia selling unlocked X01HT with same IMEI because they unlock them by flashing the qualcomm directly (take chip out, use programmer to flash it, and put chip again).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] disruptorx:
you guys know wow?this is stange for me also.i think the radio upgrades changes the imei number.not exactly the whole number,but it adds two digits at the end of the number my hermes has 17 digit imei on the back and it gives 19 digit imei when i check it with the code(*#06#).i cant exactly say how many times i upgraded the radio rom but I THINK the two digit that adds up, represnt the count that you have upgraded the radio.

any suggestions?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mack:
disruptorx is right....when looking at *#06#, its the same but it has an extra 04 at the end. i dunno what the 04 is and why its there.

i know for a fact that my cingular 8525 hasnt been tampered with. the void sticker is still there.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mrvanx:
The IMEI number is the first 16 digits of the code displayed when you type *#06#

The number does indeed change when you upgrade the radio, the 15th and 16th digits are supposedly to represent the software version on the device (according to wikipedia). But the rest is possibly something that the radio does, unknown to me :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] krooval:
pof is right ! I'm Chinese hermes user. You know there is no hermes sell in China except HK and Taiwan. My hermes is X01HT, unlocked first time boot without extrom install. There're lots of people using X01ht but installed extrom when it first bootup and htcboot has beed updated to htc182, Thencan not sim-lock after. so they send to some company which can take some chip out and flash it to htcboot 107, they call it Hard-Unlock.but I don't know which chip they take out and flash, DOC flashchip or qualcomm ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] disruptorx:
IMEISV

I recently found out that this 17 digit IMEI is called IMEISV SV stands for

S

irsion!:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] williamhk:
I have the same experience to buy X01HT in HK. They gave me a new phone and I checked the IMEI doesn't match with the phone's label. They said it is normal because of the recent cracking. They brought me another X01HT and the IMEI is same as the first one. They said the whole batch of phone they are selling recently has the same IMEI#.

I bought the phone anyway and can update HardSPL v7 and radio rom to 1.43 w/o any problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] boss2007:
My X01HT was freez and no response.I repaired back to my hand,changed IMEI report.

My X01HT

My recent bought X01HT didn't have the same IEMI no. as well.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] urra:
I come from Note4, and before that HTC One M8, and compared to the different power save modes on those devices, my S6 Edge is really bad.

Sometimes the power saver mode even states a lower remaining time than without it. Ultra power saver mode extend it, but no where near as much as it did on the Note4.

Is this the case for the rest of you?

Thank you!

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benz23:
Yes, this is also the issues i want to ask about. Im using Galaxy S6 (Flat, not Edge) my batteries now on 51% it says if normal run out for 5 hours, when Power Saving it will run out for 5 hours (yes thats right, dont know where is the improvement), and if on ultra power saving will last for 11 hour...

I mean i saw many pictures of screenshots taken that the ultra power saving mode will take at least 24 hour if the battery is 10%, but why on my Galaxy S6 is very not significant amount added to my battery life? Or am I doing something wrong here?

step-3: congrats!!! your phone is now rooted and SuperSu will be installed :)

IF ANY PROBLEM ARISES FEEL FREE TO ASK :)

IF THIS HELPS YOU GIVE ME A THANK :)
[Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] StratOS_HTC:
You can also root the phone in stock recovery. Via stock built in binary update and update script. Or you can change the mode via update zip or application uses root access.

If U use binary update shell some process won't be able to finish just because of the SE Linux - ( enforcing,permissive ) , TWRP and latest CWM uses full SElinux

Put it on your SD card in your phone

Turn off your phone

Hold VOLUME UP, POWER BUTTON AND START BUTTON at the same time!

A "boot menu" will pop up, and select "Apply update from external storage" and find the file I listed above and select it

Wait...and after a while your phone will be rooted.

Another thing I noticed, at work for the first time I got full 4GLTE yesterday, before I barely got 4G with a few bars. This leads me to believe that that they did some major upgrades yesterday. I have full 4G LTE again today, still thinking it's too good to be true, so I will take a day of hiccups if it results in LTE. I have worked here for 4 years so I was surprised to say the least.

T mobile is doing some major network revamping this year and next year so it's probably related to that. I came from verizon about a year ago, verizon would lose and send late texts all the time.

I live in a great coverage area for all four carriers so I don't know what verizons excuse is on the text end but it was a eight year issue For me.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Prod1702:
Just to add to this. T-mobile knows about this and has a ticket out to get it fixed. The problem was found on 4/17/2015. It looks like it has something to do with the Service Center that the SMS goes though to send. They do not have a fix for it but if you do happen to call in about the problem, they do give credits for your time. I do work for Tmobile as a RSA and can see the ticket that was filled out. I do not have this problem but I know others have come into my store with the problem. Hopefully this helps to know that T-mobile knows about the problem and is looking into it.

i also noticed that i was dropping to 4G in areas where i was normally on LTE.

for me, the only thing that helped (while i was on wifi at home) was enabling wifi calling...even then, i got texts 10 hours after they were sent.

seems to be fine now, though.

i'm not on 5.1.1 yet, either, still on 5.0.2

I've managed to scratch - badly scratch - the lens of my watch. It remains fully functional, but my once beautiful watch is no longer.

Where can I get it repaired? I've searched Asus' website but they only have links for repair of computers, tablets and phones. General Googling didn't turn up any third party repair options.

[Asus ZenWatch] btonetbone:
Bummer. Since it's a pretty niche item, my guess is that you should call Asus and try to speak with customer service directly - preferably someone higher level than the first person who answers the phone. They may be able to do it for you; I doubt third party repair options exist, especially since we don't even have third party chargers.
