Mine is 17 characters, but US TMobile asks for 15 characters. I'm using Kavaran's 0314 rom.
the last 2 numbers dont count, and always compare your IMEI number from within Windows to the one on the sticker under you phone battery, they are sometimes different:/
ok. thanks.
IMEI or whatever it is. But, I think I found mine.I know R800X uses MEID but I an IMEI came up.
Go on Omnius, and Identify the phone.
Is that the MEID but it's showing as IMEI. What it is?
I find it very unlikely that it'd show an IMEI instead of a MEID on an R800x. IMEI is limited to GSM phones
Ill compare the codes when I get homw

If there are letters, it's a MEID.

Hi, I sold my GNex the other week and today I bought my GS3 and so far I'm loving it! The only thing I need to do is unlock it. So I have a question cellunlock.net asks for the 15 or 17 digit IMEI from my phone.
When I dialed *#06# the IMEI was The 15 digits then / 02
so do I include the 02 in to make it 17 or just the first 15? The code was basically 123456789012345 / 02
So when they ask for the IMEI 15/17 digit number do I use:
123456789012345
or
12345678901234502
There will be instructions on the website you get your code from but I believe that it is just the 15 digits
Oh yea!? Thems fightin words....
Thanks! I looked it up and stupid me I could have just looked behind my battery!
Anyway, whats does /02 mean?
Phoenix - check your pm.
I don't have the box and my screen is broken, where can I find the serial number? I need it for Kies and have already tried entering the HEX and DEC and it says that they are incorrect. Also, anyone know if cracked digitizer without broken glass would be covered under Samsung warranty? Any help would be appreciated.
Hello again, if you don't mind me taking a shot at this...
I'm looking at my phone, box and about device/status and what's missing is the IMEI number found only on the device screen. It appears to be the Hex number with a "1" added to the end.
Can anyone else verify this?
Have you try and look on the back under the battery?

Oh, I see; the link in post above says Sprint serial number should be the Hex number as you say, (underneath the battery). But since that was rejected by Kies, maybe the phone was registered with the IMEI number, instead.
Also, noticed the about device/status shows "0x" in front of the Hex number.

I trued adding a 0 with no luck. I even shortened both Hex and Dec to 8 9 and 10 digits using numbers from under battery
thanks
If still under warranty, why don't you just exchange for another one.

I read online that this is an issue since the S4... the lcd digitizer is cracked under the glass and probably isnt covered by warranty. will check with Sprint tomorrow.

If it helps, the HEX MEID is the IMEI without the last digit... So your IMEI is your HEX with with a digit 0 - 9 added on the end.
Since Sprint doesn't use the IMEI for nearly anything systems wise (in store or with customer care), I don't think its posted anywhere other than the back of their iPhones they sell. I only know this from working in a Sprint store
Edit: also, you should call Samsung rather than head to a sprint store. I doubt (though don't know for sure) that it is covered by Samsung's warranty. I know at the store level, even the digitizer cracked is considered physical damage and is flagged as damage beyond repair. If you have TEP, then that will be the only option they'll provide you or tell you to go through Samsung... Unless their technician is blind, he might order you a replacement for free, or for $75 as their service and repair fee if you don't carry TEP.
I bought a Sprint Note II off of eBay. It was advertised as a clean ESN and I assumed that the owner was simply upgrading since this is an older phone. I received the phone today and can't activate it with Sprint. I'm a newb and looking for ideas as to what has happened. A few notes:
The sticker on the back under the battery doesn't appear to have been tampered with.
The software IMEI matches the hex sticker. The IMEI is clean per swappa.
The software dec and hex meid do not match the sticker. The software meid has no result in swappa.
The network is listed as sprint and the sprint logo appears on start-up.
I am awaiting a response from the seller. I need a phone for work and bought this one after I busted my G2. What do you all see as my options?
I'm a newb. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Sounds like the seller changed the meid (esn). If seller does not respond contact ebay and tell them. Ebay will refund if seller does not.
