DIFFERENT IMEI NUMBERS

Hi,
When you change for example a body on iphone 5 did you change IMEI # on backside of iphone ? I'm asking because I purchased one iphone 5 16GB which got two differents IMEI numbers from the back panel and that i see on display....this means my iphone is a  fake? Please help me with this question!!!!
Thank you!

If it's got one extra digit, it's your phone and the IMEI number you get on your screen is correct. If it's completely different, the repair shop switched phones and is not owning up to it.
Cheers.

  • My Nokia Lumia 800 has two IMEI numbers. What?!

    Hi Everyone,
    Purchased a Lumia 800 (white) from Nokia Store here in Bangalore, India on August 2012. The phone was working fine till August 2013 when camera stopped working. Took the phone to Nokia Care. Warranty checked out fine and the camera module had to be replaced. Got call from Nokia Care three weeks later saying there has been IMEI mismatch as such warranty is now void. Reason- the phone has two IMEI numbers. What??
    And funny, Nokia's story was true. IMEI number written on the phone panel and phone box differed from internal hardware IMEI number (which can also be seen from Settings>About). They say this can only happen if the phone was serviced earlier and component changed. Well, this was my first time servicing the phone and when the phone is under warranty why will I give for servicing to a non-nokia centre?? This shocked me, I could not convince Nokia people so I just agreed to pay for the repair. Now, after 3 days, they call up and say- "Changed the camera module but it is still not working. Maybe your motherboard is damaged! you will be charged 80% of the phones price if you agree with repair". I am yet to give them the 'go ahead'.
    For no fault of mine I am going through so much!! Is it possible that Nokia sold me a device with two IMEI numbers?? Can anyone please tell me what to do?? Thanks.

    Nokia wouldn't have sold a device in that state. It's highly likely that the retailer is to blame for this one. They've probably sold you a refurbished or repaired set as new.
    If I was you I would go and speak to the retailer about this.

  • HI Team, Recently One week back I bought a new iphone 5 from India. They have given me a used mobile which has a different IMEI number when compared to the IMEI number present on the box. Please let me know how to proceed further

    When you went back to the place where you purchased this phone, & asked them, what did they say?
    No one here can help you with this, nor can/will Apple. You need to take this up with whoever you purchased this phone from.

    You're not addressing Apple here. This is a user-to-user technical support forum. If you want to contact Apple, use the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page for information on how to do so.

  • I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring.

    I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring. One phone is for work and one is for private and I don't need both phones to ring from one call. It's bizarre.......is this supposed to be like this? If so where can I turn it off?? And while we are at it iOS8 has installed iBooks on both of my phones and iTunes won't let me uninstall it. I don't need or want iBooks on my phones.

    Hi,
    There are two easy fixes to this.
    One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
    Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
    Hope this helps!

  • IMessage issues on contacts associated with two different mobile numbers

    Hello together,
    currently i am facing the following issue:
    I have a contact "Max Mustermann" associated with to different mobile numbers. Number 1 is a number belonging to his business mobile phone which is an iPhone. Number 2 belongs to his private Android device.
    Since I updated to iOS 7.0.2 my iPhones sends every message (new message, answers) to the iPhone, regadless if he sends me a text message from his Android device.  During my throubleshooting I tried to delete his business number from contacts, deleted every mail adress associated with his contact, recreate the contact with the same name and just the private number. As for now I completely deleted his contact on my iPhone and tried to send the text message directly to the mobile number of his Android device. But still the same: Message is send as iMessage to his business mobile phone...
    Anybody faced this issue before and can me help with his?
    Regards,
    Tim

    I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
    Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
    Hope that helps

  • HT4623 I updated my iphone 4 and my daughter's ihone 4s.   Shared account - same bill, different phone numbers.   My texts are showing up on her phone, ex. to my mom (who we both have in contacts).

    I updated my iphone 4 and my daughter's iphone 4s.   It's a family share plan - same bill, different phone numbers.   My texts are showing up on her phone, and vise versa.    Only to contacts that we both have -  ex.    my mother      I'm sure I've done something wrong in the icloud share ........help.

    ON either device go to settings - message - send&receive - either uncheck or remove the apple id.

  • HT204407 My wife and I share the same email address but have different iphone numbers.  Is there anyway we can both be on "Find Friends."

    My wife and I share the same email address but have different iphone numbers.  Is there anyway we can both us "Find Friends" apps?  When I try to enter her contact name it won't allow me to do this.  Thanks.

    make seperate appleID's if you wish to be frinds or if you wish to facetime video chat and if you wish to not recieve the samme imessage msg's unless you turn it off
    you can still set both your iphones to use an email address even if both have different appleId's
    the appleID is a handle not a link to an email address
