Default IMEI Spoofing on Blackberry?

Please Login to Remove!

Has anyone ever tried IMEI spoofing? Is it even possible? I hope this thread doesn't break any forum rules, but I would really like some links pointing me in the right direction... hoping to make my Blackberry's IMEI make it appear as my Moto Q 9h.

No, sorry, can't do that. The security on these things is way too tight.

Why do you want to do that, anyway?

There's a whole debate going on as to the 6 Gig data plan on Fido supporting non fido-branded phones. Most people are saying non-fido phones will work fine... but seeing as I already have numerous warnings and credits (all data related) from using my unsupported blackberry on my carrier, I was hoping to spoof the IMEI just as a precaution.
Thanks for the info though =)

Nope, you can't, as Juwaack stated.

spoofing an IMEI is impossible. no one has ever done it.
