I can’t change IMEA on lte interface (lte1). Previously it was done as follows:
To view IMEI:
/interface lte at-chat lte1 input="AT*MRD_IMEI=R"
To change it, firstly delete it:
/interface lte at-chat lte1 input="AT*MRD_IMEI=D"
And then set up a new one:
/interface lte at-chat lte1 input="AT*MRD_IMEI=W,0101,11JAN1970,35281**********"
Now these commands do not work in the WEB terminal (Mikrotik)
It’s giving me an error:
It happens that “obscure” NMOs to try to lock customers into equipment that can only be sold by them through various restrictions. In those cases, you might have change the IMEI to one that unlocks the option to use equipment like Mikrotik’s SXT LTE6.
Hello. I have a 4G camera and my service provider does not accept the IMEI number. I have a valid IMEI number and I need to change it to the current one. I connect to the module via USB-TTL and it responds OK to AT commands. I enter the command as ATMRD_IMEI=W,0101,12NOV2010, 12345****7891 but I cannot write. Where am I making the mistake? The production mode is ATPROD=1. I need your help. The module brand is ZXinfotek ZX800-SG.
That is a command that work on some (not all) modules provided with Mikrotik devices:
Your ZXinfotek ZX800-SG is not (AFAIK) one of the modules usually coming with Mikrotik devices, so it is probable that it needs a specific command (if changing IMEI is allowed), different from the ones above.
Maybe it accepts AT+CGSN (read) and AT+EGMR (write) commands, or maybe not.
It won't accept the AT+EGMR command. When I issued the AT+CLAC command, I saw the ATMRD_IMEI command among the applicable commands accepted by the module. In other words, the module wants to use the ATMRD_IMEI command to change the IMEI. However, the following command gives an error: AT*MRD_IMEI=W,0101,12NOV2010, . Before issuing this command, I set AT+PROD=1. Reading the forum posts, they try to tell me to first delete the IMEI and then write a new one. If you could tell me step by step, I can try the same. I have no problem communicating with the module; it responds to all commands. Maybe it will work, maybe it won't. This is pure luck. If the module malfunctions or breaks down due to the actions I take as a result of your instructions, I will be responsible. If it breaks, I can order a new one. No problem. But if you can write the commands I need to follow step by step, I can do it. Thanks in advance....

about a different alternative non-production mode, normally they are:
0=production mode (normal)
1=non-production mode (where you should be able to run modifying command
but there is seemingly also:
2= alternate non-production mode
A "full" tutorial is here (post #3 of the thread):
maybe the reboots are needed/important?
But who knows if anything above applies to your lte card?
