I had lost IMEI on my spare board. only showed zeros for imei and no serial #. i restored an efs backup of the same board, and at first, imei was still gone. at some point in flashing stock software, both the serial (which reported dface) and all imeis returned. i was on stock b29, i believe. now i have the same scenario on a different board. just trying to figure out if anyone else had luck returning a '0' imei to its actual number without trying to manually replace it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] brunojborges:
i had the same problem, after flashing a rom, my slot 1 and 2 got the same number 000039485642710 witch is in blacklist in my country, but if you check in any other international imei verification site, says that is a invalid imei. Im in about 1 week everyday trying 10 different things each day, with no luck. I know is been a long time, but did you found a solution? I tryied making threads here, with no luck (people who knows how to change imei may think i have bad intentions, because for sure there is a way to solve this but nobody helps). I dont know what to do, love this phone, but i have no job and no money to buy other. And very sad coz i always try to help but this time nobody tries to help me.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] kitcostantino:
the issue isnt no one wants to help you, the issue is its technically illegal in the US (and likely where you are located) to change IMEI. so no one technically can/should help in detail. it is also one of the few things against forum rules to lay out in detail which is why no one here is able to walk you through it. i totally appreciate your situation, as i have 2 axon 7 and one i wiped /efs on in twrp, and ever since, it has no imei. i have tried everything on these forums and also on androidbrick to no avail. so i would love to see how to do this, but so far, every time ive asked, ive had the same result as you. a *good* mobile phone repair shop should be able to use qpst to pull the imei/qcn from the phone and calculate the imei and then restore it. but bc of the legal grey area (i own the phone, its not stolen, etc) i havent found anyone willing to do such. i wish you good luck, man.

[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] thrashophil:
I'm dealing with that problem. I have two GT-I8190s. I made a backup via TWRP of everything on the old phone (EFS included) and naively, I just transferred everything on the new phone, that means unfortunately overwriting the original EFS. But I have a functional IMEI, but no CSC, even after I flashed a stock rom. What can I do to get the original EFS back?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] cubamellama:
Hi i've bought Zenfone 3 Ze552KL thinking it was dual sim but today a bad surprise, there are two Ze552kl models, Z012D dual sim and Z012S branded single sim. Those specs are not mentioned from online seller. this is my question, i don't think that Asus produces 2 different models, with 2 different motherboards. somebody knows if with changing firmware is possible to use double sim card? thanks
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] nicky-xda:
Nobody an idea about that?

cubamellama, were you able to find that out?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] sanctitude888:
I recently bought a used lg v10 and yes there is only a single SIM slot inside. Oddly enough, it came with T-mobile firmware on top of Korean board, supposedly suitable for Korean carrier (SKT to be specific). It's suggested to flash a firmware according to board version otherwise it will brick the device or null IMEI might occur due to different radio freq/band etc.. I managed to flash SKT firmware version successfully. Keep in mind it'll be extra miles to fix soft / hardbrick, assuming there is any method, so please proceed with caution.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] Saktis_STi:
There's no other way to use Dual SIM since it's a single SIM model . The only way to solve this is to return to seller.

Can you show me the seller's website?

This week has become freely available the Galileo SatNav European System:

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vsriram92:
Seems that the Electromagnetic radiation emitted by Huawei Honor 8 is 1.5 watt per kg, which is the highest among all smartphones currently.

The rank of high electromagnetic radiation with some other mobiles (from major to minor) are listed below:

1) Huawei Honor 8 is (1.5 watt per kg)

2) iPhone 7 (1.38 watts per kg)

3) Huawei Honor 5C (1.14 watts per kg)

4) Huawei Honor 7 (1.13 watts per kg)

5) iPhone 6S (0.87 watts per kg)

The list with the smartphones that emit less radiation (from minor to major) is the following one:

1. Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (0.264)

2. Lenovo Moto Z (0.304)

3. OnePlus 3 (0.394)

4. Samsung Galaxy S7 (0.406)

5. Huawei Honor 5X (0.560)

From the list, we can see that Honor 8 is having High SAR rate and honor 5X having Low SAR rate in Honor brands.

Hope so this information will be useful before buying your mobile.

High SAR rate is due that the signal receiving capacity of the device is High.

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] multijoy:
That's a meaningless set of statistics and the article doesn't give any indication of the methodology.

1) A mobile phone is an RF transmitter, running within a given set of statutorily fixed limits. An iPhone 7 will have broadly the same transmit power as any other. The biggest factor will be network conditions, as the phone ramps down it's transmit power as low as it can, so the worse the path to the cell tower, the more power the phone will use.

2) Watts/kg is a good metric for categorising cyclists, useless for mobile phones, unless you have some very peculiar requirements.

The article linked appears to be discussing the long-discredited health effects of mobile phones. Even if there were anything in it, the type of modern mobile phone would be irrelevant - the difference in transmission paths into the head would be in the order of millimeters and the actual transmission power would be almost identical.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vsriram92:
Does it mean that if the path to the cell tower is worst, then Honor 8 emits more radiation than others?

And if there is No use with the SAR value, why it is regulated ? Then for what purpose that information is used for?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] eksasol:
I pretty much use Google Hangouts over WiFi, I only take incoming text and calls over T-Mo WiFi, which of course isn't available on the Honor 8 yet.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jkccl9:
Is this bad then?
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] eksasol:
It's how much radiation energy get absorbs into your cranium when you talk on the phone. Or potentially to your balls while the phone is in your pocket.

It depends from the connection type and band used.

In my country we have LTE band 7, according to the doc it's just 0.11 :D

This is pretty meaningless:

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] smjoshi:
Just FYI

Quote

______

United States: the FCC requires that phones sold have a SAR level at or below 1.6 watts per kilogram (W/kg) taken over the volume containing a mass of 1 gram of tissue that is absorbing the most signal.

European Union: CENELEC specify SAR limits within the EU, following IEC standards. For mobile phones, and other such hand-held devices, the SAR limit is 2 W/kg averaged over the 10 g of tissue absorbing the most signal (IEC 62209-1).

India: switched from the EU limits to the US limits for mobile handsets in 2012. Unlike the US, India will not rely solely on SAR measurements provided by manufacturers; random compliance tests are done by a government-run Telecommunication Engineering Center (TEC) SAR Laboratory on handsets and 10% of towers. All handsets must have a hands free mode.[4]

SAR values are heavily dependent on the size of the averaging volume. Without information about the averaging volume used, comparisons between different measurements cannot be made. Thus, the European 10-gram ratings should be compared among themselves, and the American 1-gram ratings should only be compared among themselves.

Unquote

________

So it looks like the Honor 8 SAR ratings are within the limits prescribed in various parts of the world. Equally importantly, as noted above just quoting a SAR number by itself without reference to the method used for measuring it is quite meaningless for comparing one SAR rating with another!
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] lejaune:

Hello Xdians, I am running G4 Plus XT1643

I recently flashed elemental x on MM

After flashing that i am getting system status as Modified instead of Official ... Can anybody help!!

Is it because of elemental x

I have to sell the phone ..Pls help

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] ____Mdd:
Downgrade to lower version of MM (139-23, i think, not sure ) and you will receive latest update of MM (139-63)... It will make it official...
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] 1chrome:
That's because you flashed EX kernel. This overwrites your stock kernel (boot.img) with EX kernel. Your bootloader only considers stock (Motorola) ROM files as 'official' including the kernel.

Obviously when you flashed a custom ROM it won't have Moto files as they have their own kernels.

To get it it back to official you need to revert to stock MM using this guide:

https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?ur...share_tid=3460695&share_fid=3793&share_type=t

This should solve your issue :)

Note: It will wipe all your files and remove root, etc as it will make your phone just like how you got it when purchased.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] daverobinson88:
Once you unlock the bootloader it will always show modified in the bootloader. You can't revert back to official once it's unlocked therefore modified. I already reverted back to stock firmware using fastboot and it's still considered modified.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] yeshwanthvshenoy:
I am not sure if what you said was right. Unlocking bootloader won't change the status to unofficial on the screen but it does essentially void your warranty. Even if you unlock, the device will still show it as official until and unless you decide to play with /system or /oem or root or custom kernel. Other than that, I believe it will still show it as official even though unlocked.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] ASB41:
System status changes if you modify stock firmware.

It doesnt have to do anything with locked or unlocked bootloader.

2- Customize the ROM and make it boot directly to one app

i want to do this for couple of devices therefore i want to do this through customizing the firmware/Rom of the device and reflash it

please let me know how can i do this and which tool'(s) i'll need to do this :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcastro172:
Splash logo or bootanimation? If is splash logo you need some work, because it is very specific, should be a partition filled with a raw image or inside kernel ramdisk.

To boot directly in an app there many ways, but for your case, use Tasker. Just to be fine, it don't directly open the app skipping home launcher.

I actually need to do this buy customizing the firmware/rom cause i'll be flashing it multiple devices which will be easier for me than installing an app in each device :)
