In as much as the android OS is one of the best OS on mobile phones, most users tend to run away from using android phones because of the data drainage. In this part of the country where data cost ain’t smiling, people tend to resort to using blackberry phones.
Blackberry Phones still stands out to have the cheapest data plans and cost here in Nigeria. Most ISP (Internet ServerProviders) offer One thousand Naira subscription for a monthly
duration (something that’s rare to get for android device). In the case of GLO BIS, you get a whopping 3GB data for just N1000.Ordinarily, this plan works on Blackberry 10 phones and
from d bb10 phones, the subscription can be shared to android phones, computer, iPhone, iPad and other devices. More interestingly, glo bis can be used on most MTK android phones,you will however, need to change the android phone IMEI to that of a Blackberry IMEI and that’s where this post comes in handy.
Earlier before now, Most readers have reached out to me asking how they can change their android phone IMEI to a BB IMEI but because I haven’t really tried the process before now nor written about it on this blog, I simply direct them to do a research using search engine. Last night, I decided to get busy with changing the IMEI on my InnJoo F2 android Phone and it worked out fine. The Process is pretty simple and easy.

Just be sure you are using an MTK device (Antutu benchmark app should tell you about that).
