QUOTE(ahodil @ Aug 31 2013, 04:38 PM) v11 is XXUBMG5, v12 is XXUBMG9. currently im using Crash v5.1 (XXUBMG5) and didnt suffer IMEI problem YET. i wanted to flash XXUBMG7 or XXUBMG9 based custom rom like Omega or Arrow or Crash but people reported that they suffereed IMEI lose after flashing from XXUBMG1 to XXUBMG5 or XXUBMG5 to XXUBMG9 or XXUBMG9 to XXUBMG7 This problem keeps me away from flashing XXUBMG9/XXUBMG7 based custom roms cuz im afraid of losing my IMEI. So i wanna ask you, how did you go from XXUBMG5 to XXUBMG9 ? We have to first flash XXUBMG9 modem in odin as PDA, then perform full wipe and flash the custom rom right ? Just checked my download history. It's BMG5, which means it's v11 and I don't face any imei issues. Well, it would be a good practice for you if you do an EFS backup first before flashing any Roms so that your imei would be safe. Anything happens, just restore. And yes, that's the correct way. But I always do a full wipe first then > Flash modem > check then > flash rom. This post has been edited by EdwinCodec: Aug 31 2013, 04:55 PM

But anyone bought from this guy before? Reliable? This comes with SP that means it is Korean version? But the ads does not state it's Korean or USA set?
