Title: iPhone 4 IMEI number
Post by: borgir on December 29, 2011, 01:40 pm
Hi,

A friend completely smashed up her iphone 4 a few weeks back and tried to claim on insurance that her phone had been nicked so she could get a replacement (good insurance that covers accidental damage in the UK is a f'kin rip off like everything else in this country). The insurers blocked the phone and replaced the handset. She gave me the phone which I have completely restored to its previous glory, new screen, mid frame and back glass and looks BRAND NEW. However as the IMEI number has been blocked the phone cannot be used. I know how to change the IMEI number on the phone however I need a new number to use. Anyone know where I can get one?

Thanks  :D

Hi,

I have access to a lot of IMEI numbers, but they are all in use (in Austria).
Do you need some special IMEI? AFAIK the manufacturer is encoded in the IMEI, just like in an MAC address, but I don't really know.
If you want to use the phone in Germany it probably doesn't matter that the IMEI is in use in Austria, too.

Anyway, I will try to get you an IMEI if you tell me what restrictions there are, so that I can filter.

If you are interested, I will send you an IMEI, if it works, you can send me some BTC, or not, as you like :)


cheers,

Stephe
