I lost my iPhone can someone change the serial number or the imdi number

Hi there!
I lost my iphone 5 on 05th of May2014. The Find My iPhone was enabled but until to date it cannot be traced. My suspect is that the serial number and the IMEI number have been compromised. Is there a way to verify that this has been deactivated or been replaced? I also suspect that one of my co-worker got it and had this altered in a way.
Your valuable tips or information would be highjly appreciated.
Thanks,
JoeL

As long as you have Activation Lock on you should be fine

  • Ive lost my iphone, can someone help?

    so ive lost my iphone, over the weekend, im trying to see if someone from apple can further assit me

    No. Apple and this forum cannot locate the iPhone for you.
    You have to do it yourself:
    1. Is Find My iPhone setup in iPhone?
    2. Does your iPhone has Internet access (using Wi-Fi/Cellular)?
    If both above are there, you might be able to locate it:
    Use a computer browser

    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:

  • With iOs 7 and the iPhone can someone use the phone while also using a communication app such as Speak It or Assistive Chat? These are text to speech systems for people who cannot speak well. Thanks you!

    Thank you.

    My iPhone 5 wouldn't start after I turned it off a few minutes after writing this. It went into recovery mode and I had no choice but to connect to iTunes on PC and restore.
    I restored to factory setting first, just to validate my phone was okay. For a second consecutive iOS update, the  iPhone 5 did not update smoothly while connected to PC and iTunes - I had to retry two times before the progress bar for the update showed. (The exact same problem with the restart occured when I updated to 7.0.4.)
    The good news is that I was ultimately able to restore the iPhone 5 to factory settings while running iOS 7.0.6. I did have a backup from about a month ago lying around and was able to successfully restore with that as well, so the damage done is almost negligible since I had my contacts, notes, mail, etc. backed up to iCloud.
    Once I completed both restores, the sync with iTunes worked fine.

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

  • I lost my iphone can I get my apps back that I purchased at the app store?

    I lost my iphone... How do I get the apps that I purchased at the app store  on to my new phone if they weren't backed up on my computer?

    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    From that link...
    "downloading past purchased music is supported only in the US and is not compatible with iPhone 4 (CDMA Model). Previous purchases may be unavailable if they are no longer on the iTunes Store."

  • I have lost my iphone can i get it and i have not installed find my iphone app

    The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone 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, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.
    There is NO WAY to report any lost/stolen product to Apple.

    iCloud is only available in Lion, 10.7. You will have to upgrade to Lion in order to get into iCloud. If you transfered a .mac or .me address to iCloud through mobile me, or you have another device iCloud enabled, then you can log into the iCloud.com website.

    IF you activated the free Find my iPhone service BEFORE you lost it, and it is on, connected to either the cell network or WiFi and has not been wiped, then you can log into http://me.com/find and locate it. If not, no.

    As you probably know iOS devices can only be physically synced to one computer at a time. If you mean will iTunes Match keep all your "devices" up to date with all our music then, yes, that is what the service is designed to do.
