  • so… 800000 people in the world change their rom a day….
    and 50000 activate new android phone…
    you all forget that every rom change/factory reset you re-activate your phone!!!!!!
    it’s true that the android rules but really?! 850,000 “activations”?! 
    as an android user i know that every time you switch rom you redo that activation screen so it’s a fail data…

    • Absolutely WRONG!
      IMEI is crucial for being considered as a NEW activation.
      You can get a new smartphone that uses with Android and change its ROM 1,000 times, but only once will be considered a NEW activation: the first one, when the IMEI is sent.
