Post The uses of "to"

Hello.

Good morning.

I'm fulfilling some reports in my work, but I have one question about the TO uses in this case, because I'm not very sure in this sentence, and I need your council.

I'm trying to write.

He requires to change of his blackberry cellphone
He require changes of his blackberry cellphone.

Which ones is the best in this case, I'm not very sure if requires to word is a verb and before to place that word with other verb I require to place the TO between them.

I will appreciate your lovable contribution.

Sincerely yours.

Is he exchanging phones (cambiar) or is he altering his phone (para alterar?)

If he is exchanging phones, you would say:

"He requires to change an exchange of his blackberry cellphone."

It would be more precise to say "He requires a replacement Blackberry."

If he is altering his existing phone, you would say:

He requires to change of changes to his blackberry cellphone.

I hope that helps.

He requires to exchanges his cellphone for the mine.

To was changed the network cable.
Or
The network cable was changed
