It is Wisdom (WizyTechs) here looking at my laptop screen thinking on what to write, I just thought of teaching how to change android imei to blackberry imei though tweaking of android imei is not new anymore but I got to know that some doesn’t know how this is done
because some still ask me everytime on how they can tweak their android imei so they too can get free megabyte/Gigabyte for smartphones offers out there while some ask me how to tweak so that they can be using BB subscriptions on their android phones and so on like that.
Though I wonder why blackberry(BB) phones are highly favoured over Android phones in terms of data subscriptions in Nigeria though the network providers provided a reason why sometimes ago which wasn’t genuine to me at all and will never be, why would a BB user subscribe for 3GB monthly BIS for just 1k while an android user spend almost x3 of that for such data, that’s a trash.
TWEAKING METHODS
There are several methods or means to change(tweak) your android imei to blackberry imei but we will be taking it one after the other,so in this post i will be teaching you how to change your android imei using your phone with the help of mobile MTK engineering tool and Terminal Emulator if you do not have a computer or PC and at the same using your computer or PC to change your android imei to that of blackberry imei.NB:
1. I got to know that some phones doesn’t require rooting before changing their imei but they are rare because vast majority of phones requires that, you can check How to root your phone here if you haven’t.
2. Always backup your phone or files first before any tweaking involved, that is the best thing to do in case the unexpected happens. Check here to download Titanium Backup App

Follow the Steps below Carefully1. Download Software here and extract the file to your desktop and run MTKDroidTools.exe as an Administrator
2. Connect your phone using a good USB cable and make sure you have already rooted your phone and also make sure that you have installed your phone drivers too. Once you have done this, open the MTK Droid Tools which is going to detect your device information.
3. Once it has detected your phone/device information you will notice your IMEI will show up but if not, that means there is an error but the software can help us with that.
