Hello Sir. Can I change my S3 IMEI code?

Help me to change my S3 Samsung IMEI number

The IMEI number is like the social security number of your device. There will be no way to change this number legally, for by changing your IMEI number you will be taking the number off of another device that is clean.

I believe you are asking to do this because the device you have is blacklisted from being activated, meaning that by changing the IMEI number you will be able to activate this lost, stolen or blacklisted for non-payment device.

If you want help to get your device activated, contact the carrier and ask about the options you have in order to get the IMEI number unblocked so you can use the device.

Is there someone really there? Phone is frozen at Samsung logo after 4.4 update

Phone is frozen at Samsung logo after 4.4 update

You have to shut down your device first and let it rest for a few minutes. There was likely a problem in the update and it got stuck during the process. Expect that when you have turned on your device again, you will have to redo the update process.
