How to change IMEI on Android?

IMEI, The International Mobile Station Equipment Identity is a unique number given to your phone. It is mostly printed on your device's battery or can be found by entering *#06# on the dialpad. The IMEI is used to identify devices and can be used for tracing a lost device. Here's how do you change it.

There's is actually a pretty simple way to do it, unfortunately it does not work on all devices. You might give it a shot!


  1. Enter one of these pins on the dialpad (this is the hardest part, it might not work on your device):  *#7465625# or * # * # 3646633 # * # *
  2. The engineer mode should appear. Go to connectivity tab.
  3. Tap on CDS information
  4. Tap on Radio Information
  5. If you have a dual-SIM phone, you'll see two options. Select the one you want to change.
  6. Put the new IMEI number in the correct form:
AT +EGMR=1,7,”IMEI_1” and “AT +EGMR=1,10,”IMEI_2” (replace IMEI_1 and IMEI_2 with your IMEI number) 

For instance:
AT =EGMR=1,7”9100XXXXXXXXXXXX"

Where 9100XXXX.. is the IMEI number.

Autodata - Smart Mobile Data toggle

Mobile data drains a lot of battery and even when the screen is off. Continued syncing makes the battery drain much faster and most of the time you don't even use it. But what if there's an app that automatically toggles data on when you need it but otherwise it keeps data off? Meet Autodata!

Autodata is a very simple, yet extremly effective app. As soon as the device's screen is OFF,  mobile data will be automatically switched off. However, Autodata enables the data every 15 minutes for 1 minute so you don't miss your notifications (you can customize the interval in app settings later).

When the screen is turned back ON, Autodata automatically toggles and enables tha data.
