Recently, it has become common that the store can sell a fake mobile phone, which have learned how to make them so well that you cannot immediately distinguish from the original. Nokia has introduced measures to recognize "friend" and "someone else's" devices. You may have already heard about the existence of an IMEI code for every telephone.
Necessary
Checking the original IMEI code
Instructions
Step 1
Firstly, you need to find out your individual IMEI code written in the software of the main company. In order to check this code, you need to dial on the screen of your phone the following combination * # 06 #. A number will be displayed on the screen. You can rewrite it to do a personality check. Compare this number with the number on the phone box and on the phone case, under the battery. If they all match, then there is no doubt about the originality of your phone.
Step 2
Secondly, you can use the tables according to which these numbers are assigned. Look at your number. The seventh and eighth digits show the country code in which the phone was produced:
- 00 - made in the homeland of production (highest quality);
- 01-10 - made in Finland (very good quality);
- 02-20 - manufactured in the UAE (quality, which is significantly inferior to other industries);
- 08-80 - made in Germany (good quality).
Step 3
Third, pay attention to the look of your phone. The keyboard should be not only in Russian, but also in English. Visit the official website of the manufacturer, compare the phone case on the photo for its similarity. Pay attention to the support of the functions specified in the instructions that came with the phone. The instruction should also be multilingual. The absence of your language indicates that there is no certification in your country.
