    Not possible.
    If your carrier has a blacklist service for phones reported lost or stolen that were activated with their network, this will prevent the phone from being activated on their network again.

  • I want block my stolen iPhone using IMEI number

    I lost my iPhone 5S yesterday. It doesn't have any content before i lost the phone and is not even setup yet. The phone is unlocked by the carrier so it means its in a brand new unlocked phone condition. I think i cant do anything using my iCloud credentials to block that phone coz the phone is empty and not even setup yet. I was so mad on the guy who stole my phone and i want to block it using the IMEI or serial number of that phone. I even filed a case to police department. Other than that is there anyway i can block the phone using these details?

    Call the police
    Report a lost or stolen Apple product - Apple Support
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support <probably about 'Find my iPhone'
    I have read here in the forums that the Carrier can "Blacklist" your iPhone using the IMEI - but I cannot locate the thread(s) readily
    Call your Carrier and find out

  • HT4759 i lost my iphone how i can find it using IMEI number

    hi how i  can find my iphone using IMEI number please help

    That will only allow your carrier to blacklist the phone so it cannot be used or reactivated on their network.  It won't allow you to find it.

    The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
    If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
    If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
    If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.

    Quickest place to look is in the label attached to the box the phone came in.
    Not around anymore? Maybe the carrier you used the phone with can facilitate the information. Also, when under contract, the IMEI is listed in the paperwork. Apple, alas, is quite unhelpful with that information.

    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

  • Sir, I lost my iphone4 now how can i know my IMEI number. I didn't saved it before?

    Sir, I lost my iphone 4 I didn't save the IMEI number. How can I find now IMEI number?

    If you still have the box of the device you purchased it will be included in there. But if you have lost your iphone Apple will NOT track you phone, the only way you can find your phone is by using "Find My iPhone" if you have it setup and all the requirements are met. Other than that, contact you local law enforcement, there is nothing that Apple can do.

  • TS4006 How do i determine the imei number of a device in find my phone? Please help

    Helllo,
    How do i determine the imei number a device listed on my 'Find my iPhone' account? 

    If you do not have the iPhone, does that mean it has been lost or stolen?  The only good the IMEI number will do in that case is to notify the carrier and see if they can blacklist the iPhone so it cannot be used.  Or, to file an insurance claim.  You cannot search or track based on the IMEI number.

  • I have lost my i phone 4s how can i get my IMEI number without box or set?

    I have lost my i phone 4s how can i get my IMEI number without box or set?

    You can get your IMEI through iTunes, assuming you have backed up your iPhone using iTunes.
    Open iTunes' preferences (under iTunes in the menu bar).  Choose the "Devices" tab, and hover your cursor over the iPhone entry.  The IMEI will appear.
    I suspect knowing the IMEI will not do you a whole lot of good, but for what it's worth ... that's how to get it.

  • Is there anyway i could find my lost phone using imei number?

    is there anyway i could find my lost phone using imei number?

    I had this same problem (still do--phoen is still missing).
    Do NOT get sucked into the scam site online that says they can find your phone with the IMEI number. I was so frantic that I paid those clowns $70 to do it. WHeN I figured out that htey were not doing as they said and sending me reports, I finally called Apple and was told NO, it is not possible.
    If you did not have Find My iPHone on (I didn't), and you do not have insurance (Verizon can ping it if you have insurance, and they will not let you pay to do it after you've lost it) OR if you don't have an subpoena, you're out of luck, unless you can  find it.
    Just don't get suckered into believing that site. It's the only one that I found like it. They've even got a database where you can look up your phone IMEI number and it will show you the model, and it's correct. The rep I spoke to from Apple said more than likely someone was selling that info (Illegally) from the  phone carriers, so it all looks pretty good when you're frantic.
