Dear members,
Is there in any way to retrieve data from a form I filled.
I just sold an iphone, but the guy paid with fake money. Kinda stupid from me to not check it.
Anyhow, I typed in the IMEI number on this website:http://www.unlockboot.com/2011/06/free-imei-checker-with-simlock-status-fixed.html
But I can't find it anymore, that IMEI number.
I wonder if there is a way to retrieve this data.
Thanks very much!
What the hell has this got to do with a Galaxy S2??
Because i typed this number on my S2. Thought it was different for every phone.

Hi All,
I was one of the unlucky ones that lost my IMEI recently due to corrupt efs folder without any backup after flashing a ROM. My phone still works fine but I'm concerned about the default IMEI being blocked and any other effects of losing the files in the efs folder.
I had my phone imported from the US by a friend so returning it or sending to a Samsung service center is not an option because there are none that deal with phones in my country.
As a non Linux user and non-developer I have tried everything within my knowledge and spent hours searching the Internet to no avail. To resolve this issue we really need the help of an experienced developer.
So my questions is:
Is anyone still working on a solution? I'm sure there are still quite a few people that would really appreciate your help.
Thanks!
Only samsung have a box to generate a correct efs folder... Stop looking for a solution, not exist. There are people working for fix in a Galaxy S for a year ago and have no solution
Sorry but this is the reality (And I'm in the same situation than you, I was bought my Nexus the past december in US and I live in spain...)
Enjoy your phone while works... I will do
Try sending it to Samsung for warranty repair (restore using Odin first though or they might not work on your modified device).
Won't work...in order to fix this issue, I even made some friends with the guys in Samsung Service Center here in China. They only have Odin for each device...If I were an American, maybe things could be easier. As far as I heard, the Riff Box cannot even fix this.

i still hope that in the development section are only dev posts! :O
There is a reason we have rules on this forum...
Restoring an IMEI is illegal in some countries, changing it in most, that's why there's no real solution for this problem.

Yes, in some countries it is. Just not sure if that includes Austria.

Questions belong in Q&A. Thread closed.
Also, talk of IMEI hacking is not allowed here. While this particular case isn't agaisnt the law, the solution, if one existed, would allow others to break the law.
OK so I made it my project today to actually switch my boost account over to my verizon S3. im tech savvy but im at my wits end, and im very ****ing frustrated at this point. i never ask for help.
The only problem im having is changing both the ESN, and MEID. I have tried DFS. CDMA workshop 2.7, QXDM, etc.
In DFS, it looks like it saves, but upon reading right after writing, it has been reverted.
Calling from the SIII gives boost error " Message 5, switch 182"
Do I need the 16 digit pwd to change esn through CDMA? how would I get that if so?
Any help is greatly appreciated. I have tried just about everything it feels like...
I'm pretty sure nobody on xda is allowed to help you in regards to changing the ESN.

I have no opinion on this subject nor do I care to. However my thinking goes more along the lines of preventing the use of this site as a means to clone phones. Example: if someone retrieves a stolen/lost phone and there's a maintained guide on xda detailing how to clone or modify that ESN to work, that could get the site in trouble I would presume. I am not equating or remotely suggesting the OP is doing this but the provided example conflicts with rule 9.
That's all my opinion.
Edit: And I'll just add this here as exhibit A and exhibit b.
Yup no bad intentions here, I already broke the old phone. just happy with voice and text.
I have seen a post online about this guy straight up admitting that he was wanting to clone his wifes phone becuase she cheated on him. doing stuff like that should be illegal. and I understand peoples point of view on the subject. I dont take it to heart because I just want my phone back. the donor phone I used had an unusable screen, and the fact that I got it activated was only because the customer service rep told me exactly what keys to press when the menus were supposed to appear.
Regardless of bad intentions or not. XDA doens't allow discussion of changing meid, IMEI, etc. The reason is its very simple to not only use the same techniques on stolen devices or get around provider limitations. Both can get us in trouble. Thread locked
Cheers
I am sure I know how and where my stolen is. I lost it at this location where it was stolen. Then a few months pass and it pops up in the hands of the owner of the location business it was stolen at.
I haven't grabbed the phone from the guy but I know he is using his old number, he said his other phone was stolen.
How do I some how send a message to the phone to determine it's imei number?
I have the IMEI number of my phone and want to track it to be 100% sure it is in fact my phone.
He may of used the IMEI from his old phone.
How should I approach this situation?
Thanks
Well the best case would be if you have any documents that proofs the imei belongs to you.
Sending a ping message to the specific imei device depends on the phone company. Like my samsung it has this service, fot example I can lock the device remotely and iphones can even be even located.

Okay so it's a SAMSUNG and I have the imei so what should I do? AT&T doesn't want to help but the Police are working on it...
How can someone go about this ping message to the specific imei?

Unfortunately you havent registered/configured your phone for the service, but you still can give a try at the customer service on this website: http://findmymobile.samsung.com/
this is the best what i can do for you.
good luck
and tell us afterwards if you are successful or not :good:
Okay so what's this samsung crap about? That's the stupidest thing ever, the first thing a smart thief does is turn the phone off. Then they wipe the nand and reinstall a fresh os completely. There's absolutely 0% chance any COMPLETE IDIOT would ever try and use the pre-existing operating system. So I need to determine where it is via the IMEI...
I lost my Moto G4 plus on 5th March during a marriage ceremony.How can I send a ping message.I have registered a police complaint to cyber police.

I have an s3 with verizon (duh) and the charging port on it is broken. I've been able to get it working a few times by cleaning it but now it won't work at all. So I bought another s3 on craigslist for 150 and they sent me a screenshot of an app saying it was clean. They lied. So I want to know, is there a way to spoof my imie or whatever that number is over to the craigslist phone and then just toss mine?
I would suggest just tossing the phone you got on Craigslist, and either fix your phone or by a new one. And next time don't believe an app, get the imei number and call Verizon. They will tell you if it's clean before you buy it.

That part in bold is cloning and is illegal - hence cannot be discussed here. Thread closed.
Who agree's that wireless bills are way to expensive and the taxes are outrageous????
Hey Everyone,
I have a tough one here, at least for me.Question is am I getting charged for texting using "GO keyboard"? I am no longer grandfathered in with Verizon's unlimited data plan and need to know how to distinguish between a text message and an Instant message. With Verizon you get charged for anything data which does include IM to the best of my knowledge.
So am I getting charged by using the Go keyboard which does come with themes or NOT? If you need more info from me please ask and if I put this thread in the wrong location I apologize and will put it in it's appropriate place if told where.
I think I have rambled enough...Thank you in advance...I do have to say that verizon is a good carrier in my area but for the love of god why is everything on the bill so foreign????????????????????????????
Please read question...
This is not communist china you can participate in the poll....lol

I've used go keyboard in the past, not currently.
Go keyboard is just a skin for your regular keyboard, not a service itself.
