  3. Oga Yomi, is it possible to tweak tecno c8 IMEI without rooting? if yes, will de changed IMEI affect de phone when trying to upgrade de phone coz I heard it's not advisable to uprage a rooted phone.

    • Yes, it is very possible. Go to playstore, download engineering mode apk >>>install it on you camon c8 and use it to change your imei without roooting.

    • WHat version is your Camon C8? Old or new? if you download the twrp for old, and your device is new, then it will always give you dat error. Check your version of Camon C8 and download the TWRP accordingly.
