Years ago (5+) it was possible to edit the firmware, but only minimal stuff like changing content, icons, names of the menus.
Today this is not possible. At least not for Nokia phones.

Motorola phones are very customizable.
Nokia is more for users who actually use their phone and don't want to pimp it

Changing the IMEI is illegal.
If it is blacklisted, it is stolen. You should better take it to the police along with the name and adress of the guy who sold it.
