HTC Serial Numbers decoded

Everybody knows those nice serials you can use to download ROMs from HTC. After some research about the serial numbers, here is how they are built :
2008 Serial Numbers :
Code:
HTUWWYYZZZZZ
HT = Vendor HTC
U = Year (8 = 2008)
WW = Week in a year
YY = Part Code
ZZZZZ : Identification Number (decimal)
2009 Serial Numbers :
Code:
HTYMDAABBBBB
HT = Vendor HTC
Y = Year (9 = 2009)
M = Month (hex 1...C = 1 - 12 months)
D = Day (hex 1...9A..Z = 1 - 31 days)
YY = Part Code
ZZZZZ : Identification Number (decimal)
Part Codes :
Code:
G3 = Sedna
G6 = Elfin
GH = Elf
K0 = Raphael
KW = Raphael C
K7 = Victor
EZ = Breeze

EW = Prophet/PM300
F2 = Hermes
D6 = Blue Angel
GZ = Dream
FM = Athena
6G = Kaiser
G8 = Kaiser/Tytn II
DB = Typhoon
F2 = Melbourne/Census
BD = Charmer

KF = Sapphire
HL = Supersonic
If you find further part codes not listed above, feel free to add them

My Touch Pro's part is "KW" (RAPH101)

Thanks .... is it a branded one ?

Nope, HTC Touch Pro T7274, with American 3G.

Update : Supersonic added

PL is the Code for Desire
HT041 means first april 2010?

Very interesting...

Don't mean to bring that back up but were having some trouble decoding the numbers on our Thunderbolts.. 1-9 a-z = 35 days
... were trying to make a database of the dates phones were made for bricking... if you have any insight on this please help.

Interesting
Very interesting indeed

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
for ZZZZZ
it it was found that actually it is "CC-ZZZ"
CC is for country code
i only know that
46 = Germany
37 = Dubai
Please add more country codes...

The first two characters actually mean the place of manufacture.
SZ = Shenzhen, China
SH = Shanghai, China
HT = Hsinchu, Taiwan
CH = Wuhan, China
A pic of a HTC Desire made in Shanghai can be found here:

The Shooter's (CDMA Evo 3D's) part code is HX

That's cool info. Thanks for the insight guys.

good info))) would have to look over and add it)))

MB139PK41124???

my Serial starts with FA does anyone know where this might be? while one i bought for my partner is HT

[Q] choose array-elements with certain probability

hello,
I'm writing a Android App (java) - but I guess this question is pretty general, and isn't java-specific:
so I have an Array of Elements
and I let a random-number-generator pick one array-element randomly and hand it to me.
now I've also built in a "score"-field into each array Element
so what I want to do now, is that the random-number-generator takes the array's "score" in consideration, and gives me the array-elements with the higher/lower scores with a higher/lower probability
I dont want it to ALWAYS/NEVER give me the elements with the highest/lowest score - just with a higher/lower probability
I hope I could describe my problem in a proper way....
does anybody know how to achieve this?
(as I said, i use java, but i guess code in any language - or even pseudo-code would help me out)

*bump*
anybody?

Try this, it's in C# but it's pretty close to Java.
You cannot directly weight the random function so you have to use a different method.
By applying a weight to each item in the array, then using a random function to select using the weighting values, the results of the selection can be swayed.
The weighting values are relative to each other.
Using the values in the code, 'B' should turn up about three times more often than 'A'
The only object that may need some explanation is Random:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.random(v=VS.80).aspx
Code:
using System;
namespace RandomWeighting
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
char[] Select = new char[10] {'A','B','C','D','E','F','G','H','I','J'};
int[] Weight = new int[10] {10,30,25,60,20,70,10,80,20,30};
int[] WeightSum = new int[10];
int i,j,k;
Random Rnd = new Random();
WeightSum[0]=Weight[0];
for (i = 1; i < 10; i++)
WeightSum[i] = WeightSum[i - 1] + Weight[i];
for (j = 0; j < 70; j++)
{
k = Rnd.Next(WeightSum[9]);
for (i = 0; k > WeightSum[i]; i++) ;
Console.Write(Select[i]);
}
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
}
Output:
Code:
HEFIBHHCCFBCAEFFDHACHBEJHHFDFIDFEDFFCHHDJBIDJEHHFHCJJJBHJGBDDGFDDFHHHB
Note the low density of A and G as opposed to H
It is just a sample at random, but 2 'A's and 7 'B's roughly matches the conjecture above, but over a million selections, the distribution is as follows:
Code:
A 30664
B 84187
C 70648
D 168481
E 56529
F 197311
G 28145
H 225764
I 56613
J 81658
If your code changes values in the Weight array then the WeightSum array must be recalculated.

wow, thats a lot!
The only thing I dont understand about the code is this line:
k = Rnd.Next(WeightSum[9]);
for (i = 0; k > WeightSum; i++) ;
what exactly happens here?
what kind of a for-loop is this?
why is there no body?
and strangely, while debugging this line, i noticed that the value of i jumps to some random number in this line - and I have no idea why and how
------
by the way: I've already tried it out, it works pretty good.
although I noticed that the first element always gets picked ALOT, no matter how low the weight.
I think thats a flaw in the algorithm

After the following code:
Code:
for (i = 1; i < 10; i++)
WeightSum[i] = WeightSum[i - 1] + Weight[i];
The WeightSum array contains the following values:
Code:
[0] 10
[1] 40
[2] 65
[3] 125
[4] 145
[5] 215
[6] 225
[7] 305
[8] 325
[9] 355
The Random.Next() function that takes a single integer as an argument is defined as:
-------- Courtesy of MS VS .NET Help ------
public virtual int Next(int maxValue)
Parameters maxValue Type: System.Int32
The exclusive upper bound of the random number to be generated. maxValue must be greater than or equal to zero.
Return Value Type: System.Int32
A 32-bit signed integer greater than or equal to zero, and less than maxValue; that is, the range of return values ordinarily includes zero but not maxValue. However, if maxValue equals zero, maxValue is returned.
-------------- End of Help ----------------
So, we are asking for a random value between 0 and 354,(element WeightSum[9] above). The following code then finds which is the lowest element of WeightSum which holds a value greater than the one we have been given. When this happens 'i' contains the index to use for the selection.
Code:
for (i = 0; k > WeightSum[i]; i++);
The standard construction of a for loop in C is
for(One or more initialisation statements; Do_While_True Condition; One or more iteration statements)
{
loop processing code;
}
If there is nothing to do in the loop body, you don't need it, and you can replace it with the ';' at the end of the for statement. In effect, it is identical to the following code:-
Code:
i=0;
while(k > WeightSum[i])
{
i++;
}
As regards the first element being picked more than the others, have a look at the distribution table in post #3. It is what you would expect for the values given. I assume the difference is either the Random function in Java or some different implementation between C# and Java.
You may have to change some of the code slightly, i.e. change the for() loop to the while() loop above and step though it in the Java debugger to get to the root of the problem.
You can't debug a for loop followed by an immediate ';' The entire for loop is executed to completion when you use debug and try and step through it. To debug it place a dummy statement in the for loop. A breakpoint may now be set on this line.
Code:
int i,z;
for (i = 0; k > WeightSum[i]; i++)
{
z=0;
}

ActionScript and Javascript versions ...
Thanks for the great write-up! In case anyone is interested, I've adapted this into a javascript and ActionScript class. If anyone is interested, I've attached the code. For a more in-depth post, check out blog.teamthinklabs.com.

[Q] Help with app creation!!!

Hello, I'm making this code and everything was going fine, I had used a "dim imageview1 as ImageView....

anyways here's the code:

Above is some code I found from some web site..and I tested it..then it is working fine...
When I sent MMS to an android phone, I see the clickable http link, "https://www.google.com".........
However, when I sent the same one to an iPhone user, then...they received "notify.htm" like an attachment..then they needed to tap the file..then they saw the clickable link to navigate...
Is there any way I could change somehow this code so that I could provide the same behavior like an Android user for an iPhone user as well?.. I don't want to send like an attached file..
Thanks,
P.s : BTW, I am not sure whether I am posting this under right category. If not, admin, could you please move this to the right category?
