[Tutorial] MT6592 MT6589 MT6582 MT6572 MTK Change / Create / Generate Invalid IMEI - "user build error"

[GizBeat]

Hi Spljoe, I'm making a video of how to change IMEI on China phones another way if you're getting “This command is not allowed in UserBuild”. The build of your firmware will not allow changing through this method. It's a common problem with the newer phone models.

For this new method, you will need to be

1. rooted
   
2. ADB drivers installed
   
3. USB debugging enabled
   
4. MTK Droid Tools downloaded (see tools forum for that).
   
   If you get through all those steps:
   
   
5. attach phone to PC with USB
   
6. MTK Droid Tools bottom-left square should be yellow and say "SU" is accessible if properly rooted.
   
7. click "Root" in MTK Droid Tools in bottom-right corner
   
8. allow any SU permission requests on your phone
   
9. MTK Droid Tools bottom left corner square should turn green
   
10. click "IMEI/NVRAM" button
    
11. put your new IMEI in
    
12. click "okay" to change
    
13. click reboot in bottom-right of MTK Drood Tools
    
14. wait for phone to fully reboot
    
15. look at IMEI in MTK Droid Tools, it should be as you changed it
