hi

I have a phone brought from ebay and flashed it with schaps newest rom, upgraded the radio and installed hard spl and used it for 4 weeks before it was barred. T mobile said it was a bad flash and to reflash it with the official firmware. I have done this numerous times. My imei has changed. It now says it is a number with a lot of 0's that doesnt match the back of the phone or it says 'failed', when i type *#06#. What has changed the imei and how can i get it back?

please help

thanks in advance

flashing will not change the imei at all, whether its hardspl or a rom

Check with *#06# if your imei has changed to 35519500000001701. This is a default imei, and usually happens when the security area of the device is damaged.
