This is the acronym for International Mobile Equipment Identity that defines the unique identifier of a mobile phone. Is a kind of National identification number (SSN in U.S.) of phone, a unique identification number internationally. Usually, this code can be found printed on the label of the phone, under the battery but also on the phone box, as can be seen in the pictures attached. It presents as groups of numbers separated by dots, spaces or slashes. What really matters is the whole group of 15 digits, without taking into consideration these splitters.

Phone IMEI Unlock
Usually, phone locking starts on the SIM card level to accept a particular mobile network code. However the other half of that limitation comes from your phone’s International Mobile Equipment Identity number (aka IMEI). This number is unique to each cell phone and utilized to recognize all devices accessing terrestrial cellular networks, including smartwatches, laptops, modems, tablets, and more.

In addition, all IMEI numbers have linked codes used to unlock a phone. Producers maintain these codes in a database accessible by carriers and other third-party service providers. This stops you from grabbing the SIM card out of the Galaxy S20 you’re actually purchasing through U.S. Cellular and use it on Verizon’s network.

Not all phones can be decoded using IMEI code. Depending on the phone’s brand, unlocking is possible or not. There are also brands or models of phones that are unlocked on IMEI but where the network in which they are locked is also very important.
