EMEI. How it works

[Kjetil]

The EMEI:

Correct me if I'm wrong.
All GSM phones transmitts the emei when their online.

But what happens if threr is 2 phones online with the same Emei.. Is it a block for that ore is it possible to run to phones with the same emei at the same time?

I'm aslo beeing told that the phone only send the emei. (and sim card info). Nothing else?? MSID FAID ITEM CODE?


:roll:

I was under the impression that it sent both the emei and something from the sim, either way I'm pretty sure that both orange and vodaphone (in the uk) block any phone that they suspect to be fake (the theory is that the real customer will contact customer services).

The IMEI and some information from the SIM card is sent to the network.

If one IMEI is connected, another will fail. If another SIM from another network connects with an IMEI which is allready connected, it still recieves no signal so I dont know as far as that works.
