Heard of a solution to your friends problem before. Just swap his sim card to the second sim card slot. He should be able to use his phone functions like normal. Maxis has blocked his IMEI which is sim card slot 1. Hope this helps. Good luck.

That is weird, because I have read similar cases as your friends, which was overcomed by using slot 2. Let me try and find the link regarding the issue.

There you go. Short remedy for your friends problem. At least now he can use his phone functions to make/receive calls and data functions.

There is another possible way to permanently overcome this issue if your friends situation. If he is game enough, he can attempt to attach his nano sim to his micro SD card. Just to search on Youtube. There are tutorial demo's showing you step by step. Idemnimity clause, please don't hold me responsible if something goes wrong.

Are you sure? How come A got blacklisted so early? Note 8 just released less than 2 months ago. Telco blacklisted is only after 5 consecutive months of no payment, normal barring after 2 consecutive months of no payment.
