hi fnds i got this from net, not my own [:grin:no cheating:grin:] just thought of sharing with u guys

Would like to know ifyour mobile is original or not?!!
Press the following on your mobile *#06#and the-international mobile equipment identity number appears
check the 7th and 8th numbers

123456 7th 8th 9101112131415
Phone serial no.
xxxxxx??xxxxxxx


IF the digit number Seven & Eight is 02or 20 that mean it was assembledin theEmirates which is very Bad quality :-x:-x

IF the digit number Seven & Eight is 08 or 80 that means it was manufactured in Germany which is not bad;-);-)

IF the digit number Seven & Eight is 01 or 10 that mean it's manufactured in Finland which is Good :):)

IF the digit number Seven & Eight is 00 that means it was manufactured in original factory which is the best Mobile Quality ... :smile::smile:

IF the digit number Seven & Eight is 13 that means it was assembled inAzerbaijan which is very poor quality and potentially very dangerous to your health!!! :x:x

This is total crap. Mine is 00 and it says clearly made in germany.

Nokia 3230

Nokia phones made all over world uses same parts. So no difference were phones are manufactured
