Aren't IMEI's only available if there is a SIM slot?

Probably no one will tell you here because, as I understand it, changing the IMEI is illegal.

If the phone works, why change it. If the IMEI is blocked then the phone is probably stolen... Just return it and buy your own.

For the privacy reasons. IMEI is a perfect way to track a person, even w/o having access to the service provider's system.

It's still illegal in some countries, which may also includes where this forum/server is hosted.
Find me in the forest, when I'm at my lowest. I don't really think you should continue..

HOLD YOUR BREATH.

This is irrelevant since changing IMEI is different from discussing how to change IMEI.

Is your Android install rooted? There's an Xposed modules "IMEI Changer" that can do this.
