Hi guys I know when you change your CSC on your phone you have to type in your IMEI number, if i typed in the wrong IMEI would it change the IMEI number that is displayed on the phone? Its just im sending it off for warranty and i want to make sure that everything seems perfect as I have rooted it. Everything is back to stock and the flash counter is reset. I just wanted to make sure that the IMEI number hasn't been changed or anything by accident when changing the CSC.
Thanks guys

Only you know your correct IMEI have a look on the phone and under the battery .

i know what my IMEI number is, but there are / within the number on the sticker on the back of my phone, where as on the device itself its just 15 continuous numbers, is that normal ?
Also is the IMEI linked with the the CSC, e.g if I changed the CSC to a different one would they know ?

almost certainly not - changing the IMEI is far, far more complex than that
I believe you can also check if the phone is in a rather "legit state" if Kies will let you upgrade firmware (and of course if it recognizes your SIM).
Hello!
i have a galaxy s3 and it's now can't make calls or even enable mobile data so i don't have a network. But i know how to solve it but i have the real imei adress and the problem is that i don't have serial number (is not in the white box under the battery beacause i changed the motherboard and i put a new one which conatins a new IMEI adress and a new SN) Note: when i changed the new motherboard everything was working ok but i lost the SN just now
So all the data in the white box under the battery don't interest me cuz it's for the old motherboard.
So to fix that issue i want a methode to find the Serial Number through the IMEI adress. How can i do that? thanks
Try kies.

Sorry to give you the bad news, but there is absolutely NO relation between the SN and the IMEI. ABSOLUTELY NONE. The SN goes up by 1 at a time, but the IMEI, for the TAC, FAC and SNR it depends on the country of manufacture, the year/month of manufacture, and is assigned to each device in particular. SNR, along with the IMEI is random-ish, but the SN is not. SO this is why you can't retrieve the SN from the IMEI.
i have problem with my Serial Number. that was happen because I downgrade from Nougat to Lolipop. when I downgrade, I lost my IMEI and Serial number, but IMEI can fixed by "writedual IMEI" App. but i can't find way to fix my Serial number. i was used Qualcomm IMEI & SN writer but still not work. any solution?
