I recently bought a China android phone on ebay.com. you can see the product here http://www.ebay.com/itm/-/320977989760?item=320977989760&ViewItem=
I live in India and i am not able to use the Sim on the phone. The problem is when i put the sim the phone detects carrier name but i am not able to make calls. So can this be an issue with the IMEI number. Because i have heard the the china phones does not come with genuine IMEI numbers and in Indian now its compulsory to use handsets only with the genuine IMEI numbers. So can some one please help me with this? I dont know if its an IMEI issue or something else. I contacted the seller and he said it has a genuine IMEI and he also gave me a link to change the IMEI number of needed which i know is illegal. So any help is really appreciated !! Thanks.

Hi, I Bought a supposedly unlocked Desire X from eCell on ebay and it won't recognise my SIM card.
After going through their feedback in more detail it looks like their a bunch of shisters who try to wriggle out of everything and rob people of their money.
they're trying to say I've broken the SIM card slot
I suspect it's not working because it was for a non UK market or was faulty before dispatch.
So can I find out from the serial number or IMEI if it is a hong kong or malaysian phone etc and hence why it won't work in the UK with my SIM.
thanks for any pointers in advance
cheers

I purchased a Oneplus One from a guy. Now I am faced with 2 problems.
The phone will read the sim card. For example if I throw a chatr sim card in it will say chatr on the top however, there will be no signal rendering no service.
the phone is not blacklisted or anything. IS there anyway to fix this.
I thought that all opo phones worked with all carriers (i.e Windmobile in canada) however I believe the opo i purchased was the chinese version. Is there any way to get this phone to work on wind if I can fix the first problem.
Any help is appreciated I am not very tech savy with this kind of stuff.
Thanks in advance.

The OnePlus One's Chinese model has those bands, but they are locked. You can use this guide to unlock them http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031. Good luck!
I get signals on chatr for 30 seconds and then they are gone,
I have this explanation mark where the bars are...
Please help

Hi.
It was also my first guess that your imei is probably used by someone else.
I saw something similar in turkey, where you have to register your smartphone on your name in the national communication office, to be able to use it completely free, or otherwise your sim gets blocked for that specific imei. And the registration costs about 200 euros i guess ( not sure ) .. so people transfered imei numbers from already activated smartphones or (notlegal!) other devices with stolen imei (/notlegal!)
I don't want to give you bad advice but as far as i know, it doesn't look that well for you.....
Their a guy on Facebook that can unblacklist my s6 but for $80 US but considering the rand to dollor is so weak, it will just be very expensive.

Hello evryone, i'm seeking help from you. I think I just got scammed I bought an S8+ with a sticker on it where it says "NOT FOR SALE" so the phone doesn't have an IMEI it can't register on any network (I live in France). Is there a fix for this problem have anyone faced this problem before ? thanks in advance.

Probably a demo unit, I think is only capable to connect a wireless network.
Only changing the mainboard, try find a s8 from Europe with a faulty screen.... the back cracked.
You have to figure out the real cost of that repair and you loose the warranty! Isn't easy and probably with more a few euros you buy a new!

Where in France. I am near Metz and I have a phone repair shop. I think I might have a board for you. But I am leaving for vacation to Spain for 2 weeks. So nothing right away is possible

Return it and ask for a valid one! Or don't you have a receipt?

If you have a sim port I thinks install the apropriate Rom and create the partition EFS with an IMEI can be working.. but not sure.

I something can be done but its pricey! $$$
No not expensive at all. Flashing with imei. i.e. magicbox or something is like 69€. The problem is finding a goid imei that can be used. The rest is cheeeeese.
