my screen just broke and its all dead now and i m unable to open on usb debugging any way to get it done kindly help
How to hack the IMEI from broken screen?
Me to. I need to get the IMEI of my friends phone (for his warranty repairs)
- phone in question OnePluss 3T
- screen is black
- USB-debugging is off
- phone had a pass-pattern (which is known)
- not-rooted
- stock-recovery
- google.com/dashboard doesn't show IMEI for devices which are not active
- google doesn't have an email
- carrier refuses to name the IMEI
- police wont help
- to enter fastboot in stock recovery you need to see what you're doing
- phone was bought on ebay - and the seller is not responding
- And there is no IMEI under the battery or anywhere, when you open a phone
If your life depended on it and you were a pro hacker - what would you do to find out your phone IMEI?

Hello all,
With the use of this forum, I have been able to Root my LG Optimus F60 (metropcs) LGMS395 - Software Version LGMS39510d
I, then went on to attempt to unlock the bootloder for this phone.
I followed the instructions in the "Official Unlock Bootloader LG%..."
But, when I enter the combo - 3845#*880#, I immediately receive a dialog window that states
"Connection Problem or Invalid MMI code"
To make matters worse, I installed TWRP Manager from Google Play and attempted to use that interface to boot to: Recovery and Bootloader.
Neither worked.
I have done the following:
1. Rooted and checked via Root Checker
2. Downloaded the LG Support tool to make sure that I have the updated drivers.
3. USB Debugging is enabled
4. Attempted to use: adb reboot recovery (reboots my phone, LG screen comes up, Metro screen comes up, back to home Screen)
5. Attempted to use: adb reboot oem-unlock (same as # 4)
6. After #4 and #5, I then tried to enter the combo to check the status of the bootloader - 3845#*880#. That is when i get the darn error message.
7. I have contacted LG, but am awaiting a response....
This phone is brand new, bought only 6 days ago...
Can anyone throw a bone this way?
I suppose my Huwaei Ascend G620S had some battery related problem, but not sure: when I try to turn it on, it goes randomly in one of the following 2 states:
A) - Huwaei logo appears
- then rapidly the message "boot image verify failed - Please update to the authorised images"
- finally get stuck into "fastboot&rescue mode - Please connect USB cable to your computer and open Hisuite - more information: URL - PHONE LOCKED
B) - the screen does not turn on, and the notification LED loops red > green > blue
My goal is simply retrieve the Notes saved in the Huwaei notes app, not necessarily having the phone full working again. The most obvious to me solution is to have it working and then from the Notes app sharing all of them to Google Keep. But if you have any suggestions on how to get them otherwise, great!
Obviously any solution that delete the data before restoring is not for me at this point if I want to get the notes * : )
What I already tried with no success:
- restarting the device by pressing Volume + and Power button
- unplug battery and replug it
- connect the phone to HiSuite either on Windows and Mac, but the phone did not have any particular USB option or Developer tool activated before it got in this state, so it is not seen by HiSuite
- using ADB from Mac, but it neither see the phone when I try to list devices
- I have the unlock CODE, but don't know what to do with it in this condition
Ask me any question, I'm here to answer!
And thank you very much!

Hi there,
My sensation 4g on cyanogen 13 (android 6.0.1) by Ivanich.
After couple of weeks abroad on vacation using flawlessy my phone in roaming, the exact moment I got back to my country and I turned on the phone (after flight landed), my sim card instead of connecting as usual to my carrier could no longer register on to the carrier's network (I have signal / bars but can't register to network, hence can't use mobile data, send sms, call...). After running few tests and checks, it seems the IMEI automatically changed somehow (!!!!) from the one printed on the phone's box and phone itself and now the SIM card "rejects" the phone and can't connect (tried to insert other sim cards from other carriers but with no avail...).
Anyways, I got everything to change imei on a qualcomm chipset device (if htc sensation it were mtk it would have been way more easy) but the only thing I can't do is enable the diagnostic mode so to have the com port required to restore the IMEI... USing adb I try to reboot the phone in EDL mode so to download in it qualcomm drivers (required to enable the diag mode) but it keeps rebooting into regular android.... And my pc can't recognize the phone as necessary in order to then restore imei. Can someone please help me?
Just to make things clear: I don't want any support restoring imei (i know such threads are not allowed on xda) but just support on how to enable diagnostic mode. Please note that my phone is S-off and my bootloader is LOCKED.
Thanks
A while ago my phone wanted to do an EMUI update and halfway through it something failed and now my phone is stuck in a bootloop where it gets to the carrier logo screen then restarts and displays Huawei eRecovery (which does not work). I am aware that there are plenty of threads about this issue but none of them have really helped me. My phone was running completely stock software and the default development settings are active (OEM locked etc.) except maybe USB debugging. I've tried to send it back to my carrier but because it has a broken screen they won't take it under any warranty, I have also tried Huawei but their online help is awful and the closest service centre is over 10 hours away. I have no intentions of replacing the screen because for the price of it I may as well just buy a new phone.
As far as the model goes it is a MHA-L09 from Australia (bought via Optus), I have a bootloader code and my IMEI number.
I've tried to access the phone through bootloader and adb. adb doesn't recognise the phone whatsoever but bootloader does (using adb devices and bootloader devices respectively in cmd) but other bootloader commands have no effect as the OEM is locked.
I was just wondering whether I'm able to flash a new rom onto it given the circumstances or whether I should just buy a new phone altogether.

You can use DC-Phoenix to flash firmware.
There are tutorials on how to use it on their website (DC-Unlocker)
Ah, you have bootloader code. Then you might be able to fix this for free.

Revision 1
S7 edge(G935F, exynos model)
Android 8.0.0(Oreo)
rooted = yes, using odin and cf-autoroot file
dev options = turned off
USB debugging = off
OEM unlock = locked
carrier = when bought it isn`t tied to any carriers, now it don`t have any SIM card
SD card = Inside, but broken
What happened?
I try to root the phone. This is the first I`ve root a phone. I follow the instructions exactly and it worked. Then the OS notifies me that I have to restart my phone because of security issues. I restarted it, but it won`t boot. There`s a message in the top corner of the screen that says "custom binaries blocked by FRP", I looked it up and saw how to fix it, found it from imyfone.com (
[2023] Fix “Custom Binary Blocked by FRP Lock” - 100% Work
Stuck on 'custom binary blocked by frp lock' error on your Android device? Find the latest & easiest way here to fix it quickly!

), follow it, when I need to input my carrier and country, imyfone don`t list my country (Indonesia) and don`t have the options to select no carrier so I can`t proceed because it already warns me that if I got the info wrong, I will brick my phone. Then I try to brainstorm an idea by myself and found if I redownloads the rooted tar.md5 to my phone, it will boot again. I boot it to the download mode, prepares Odin, ADB, an USB driver, connect it to this computer and start downloading. Odin says it failed to download but the phone is still stuck on the download mode, and I disconnected the USB several times (What do you need USB for if the download has failed?)
What have I tried? (Not in chronological order)
- ReiBoot, to get out of the download mode and fix the phone
- Factory Reset
- Restarting from the original recovery mode
- redownloads the tar.md5 file to my phone
What I think is the solution?
1. Give up and admit that the phone is broken (not recommended), or
2. Wait until the battery dies and try to boot it again
