Important Notice
- You will need to factory reset via factory mode, recovery mode or phone settings.
- NCK Pro Box requires a hardware box to work. Installing and running the Module without the hardware won't work
- If you are using a loader version (no hardware required) then your antivirus might block it. It's up to you to either heed or allow the software to run anyway
- This tool only writes IMEI you supply. It doesn't auto-generate IMEI
- This guide only explains how to write IMEI not change IMEI; meaning you are entirely responsible for whatever IMEI you choose to write
- Ensure to resolve unknown baseband before going on to fix null IMEI else the process will fail
