Hi
I just wonder how to check a geneius samsung phone. I got an IMEISV with 3531xxxxxxxxxxx /01 at the end. Is this ok?
Thanks

That's a major problem. You were actually sent a prototype of a new brain wave manipulation bomb instead of a phone. What ever you do, don't set an alarm as this causes the bomb to go off and might kill everybody in the vicinity who worries too much about unimportant stuff like IMEISV numbers.
The only way to save yourself and others is to do a quick Google search to find out that the SV refers to software version and that the number is your specific version. I hope you survive this crisis and start using Google a lot more as it might help you avoid other catastrophes like this one.

well i googled it and it brought me here..
what i want to know is can that affect the outcome of a unlock code request?
i have the atrix 4g and the unlock code is not working! is there some type special input method or pre-digits to get the phone unlocked?:fingers-crossed:
i got the same. imei number /01 what is that?
Is it not just the imei sv? I have aosp custom rom so it shows in 2 different fields (imei and imei sv) but maybe sammy roms just put it in 1 field.
Do you have an imei AND imei even field?

Yes but this does not answer my question. Is there another field called IMEI SV? I can't help you unless you help me help you.

imei is something like serial number xD
dunno how to explain it better
you can find it behind your battery
it shows you where is your phone build i think
correct me if im wrong some1
This can happen when flashing Roms. That is a generic imei. Saw it alot on my old Galaxy S. It didn't effect anything
i also list my imei... when i type *#06# no imei will display... what should i do?
Hey guys! help me understand! I bought HTC AMAZE 4G not working for repair! I repaired it but the phone does not see the network! * # 06 # no imei! that you can recommend? hbot 1/90.0008 rom stock 2.3.4

Nope. You're out of luck.
Also, we, the people of XDA-Developers, will not discuss about methods to obtain or otherwise change the IMEI of your phone. Sorry.
How or for what reasons would a imei not be shown.

Well we can't discuss illegal ways to change your imei.
What you can try is to call Customer Service and tell them your imei number says unknown. They can check the system and send info to your phone to see if it can read it. I've done it before and they were able to get my imei "beamed" to and from my phone. It won't work if the phone was reported lost or stolen.

More likely than not, one of the partitions that store your IMEI information got corrupted, thus rendering your phone inoperable due to a corrupt/missing IMEI.
Amaze 4G IMEI is protected by checksum, not simple plain text like in other HTC-s.
I had few customers who destroyed it using certain "box".
Someone locally had this issue, they played it off saying it was booted from normal like that. Htc replacement
i want to know how to change the imei number

Theft and/or insurance.
hmmm good question
It is illegal to change a phones imei number but i do know how to do it but you need to give me a good reason.. When i had the LG Optimus 3D i once flashed a 3D Max firmware to see if it worked cuz it was identical only with extra 1 gig ram. By doing that it changed my imei number. A member on this forum helped my put my original imei number back on my phone..
Anyway a good reason or no help..
Closed, we don't discuss changing IMEI's on XDA as doing so is illegal.
Restoring them is of course another matter, and is allowed as long as no one starts asking as in this thread, about how to change it.
Hello, I have just bought an used Galaxy S3, but unfortunately I have some problems. The main problem is that I am unable to make calls. The phone shows No service and it doesn't matter whether SIM is inserted or not. Another thing I have noticed is changed IMEI. It is different than one behind the Battery. Also, serial number is 00000000 and it is very strange.
I would be very grateful for any help!

It sounds like you've got a phone totally wiped and your EFS folder is clear. Your EFS folder contains your imei number. Your phone is unusable. Ask the seller if he has a backup of EFS folder.

i don't no what to look for, but what i know and jjeagan know that you have to ask the seller for the backup.. Yes you have that imei number in hand but not installed in phone.
Yes, sure I will ask the seller for the backup. However, let's say he doesn't have it. Then there won't be a possibility to get ir working?

Here ya go. It can be fixed pretty easily however as of now it will show you roaming even if you aren't.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31051731
Edit actually after reading this new method it seems they fixed the roaming problem. Mine is backed up so I dont really follow this closely. I would however demand some money back for the shady business.

yes, I saw that method, but somehow I can not find one file.
Does anyone have any other thoughts?
Greetings,
I recently got this phone :victory: very happy coming from my galaxy S2.
First thing i found was that only takes micro sim so i asked O2 for a micro sim and as soon it arrived i gone to their website to make a sim swap.
Now all seems to be transferred across, i have my old balance, i can use the internet and i asked a friend to call my old number and it rings on the new micro sim but when i go to settings > about device > status > my phone number is still says the new number from the micro sim?!! There is no option either to change it.
Not a massive problem since i can do everything normal but having the new number there kind bugs me.
Anyone had this and was able to sort it out?
Ragards
You have to register the new number with your service provider.

No i chose to keep my old number, and my old number rings on the new micro sim after i did the swap but on the settings i shows my number is the new number that came with the micro sim!

Anyways nvm

Like i said never mind, i will ask and subscribe elsewhere.

The mobile number you see in my settings is written in your sim.
This number is usually written by your service provider.
Unfortunately there is no option to change this number in android phones.
However you can change it by yourself using iphone.
If you do not have access to iphone you can contact your service provider to do it for you.
Oh well, on my phone My Number is..: Unknown i dont care.though.

This problem can be fixed without calling O2.
I don't know why people are telling you its not possible, IT IS POSSIBLE. Ignore them.
I was able to change this number in settings whilst running either cyanogenmod / hyper galaxy (can't remember which). But one or both of these ROMs has the option to change it.
You go to phone application then press menu to access settings, and look around.
I changed my number because it is unknown but really its not that important changing it
EDIT
running CM10 I have the option to change the phone number.
Dialer > Settings > Additional Settings > My phone number
There you can enter in your current number and it will be changed

Thanks for the replies guys, that is all I needed to know. I still have CM10 installed on my Galaxy S2 so I'm gonna put my SIM there and give it a shot.
Thanks again
