Service information about your phone is stored in it and is available when you enter certain engineering codes. It can also be recognized in other ways. How can this be done?
Necessary
- - telephone;
- - documentation;
- - Internet access.
Instructions
Step 1
Go to the official website of your mobile phone manufacturer. Find in the right section exactly your model and view the information regarding the year of its production. Samsung official site - https://www.samsung.com/ru/, Nokia - https://www.nokia.com/en-us/, Sony Ericsson - https://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/home ? cc = ru & lc = ru, Siemens - https://www.siemens.com/entry/ru/ru, LG - https://www.lg.com/ru/. You can also get information about your phone model on special thematic sites and forums.
Step 2
Enter the service code * # 0000 # in the standby mode of your phone and wait. While the screen displays the information you are interested in. Please note that sometimes completely different information regarding the software is written there and in no way related to the release date of the phone; it all depends on the manufacturer.
Step 3
Enter the combination in your phone to receive an identification fifteen-digit IMEI code - * # 06 #. Open the following web page in your browser: https://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imeinr. Enter the code displayed on the screen into the corresponding input form on the website, get the results for your phone and view the year of issue. Other information is also available here that may seem useful to you, for example, the country in which your mobile device was assembled, the full name of the model, and so on. If your phone ID was not found, it is most likely that you have a fake one.
Step 4
Connect your phone to your computer and install the software that came with it. It is possible that the utility menu also includes information about the year of release of your mobile device.
