    No. Rooting doesn't let you (at least that I'm aware) change the IMEI of a phone.

    As a matter of fact, it's a federal offense to do so. It's like changing your identity.

    You can't change the IMEI.

    Rooting a phone as well as changing the ROM has nothing to do with unlocking.

    You cannot change the IMEI on most devices, it's written into the hardware during manufacturing in such a way that it cannot be changed!
