Sometimes the need arises to consult the IMEI code of our mobile phone , but due to ignorance, we are assaulted by several doubts. The most certain thing is that we do not completely know what the IMEI code is and what we must do to obtain it. In order to clear these two doubts, we are going to write a small guide on how to get the IMEI code of a mobile or smartphone .
The first method that we will explain to get the IMEI code, we could call it universal method , since it works in most mobile phones and could also be considered as the fastest and most reliable method.
Let's start by defining roughly what the IMEI code of the phone is. The IMEI code is no more than a 15-digit number that identifies the device uniquely throughout the world. In other words, every phone that is manufactured will have a unique code, so we will never find two mobile phones that have the same IMEI.
First of all, we go to the mobile phone's numeric dialer, also called a dial. Through this marker, we enter the code * # 06 # and the IMEI code of the mobile phone will appear on the screen.
Do not worry about the asterisk (*) and hash (#) symbols, since all standard phone dialers include both symbols. Now you will have to resort to the classic paper and pencil to write down the code or you can also make a screenshot of the device and save the IMEI as an image . In any case, you can check the IMEI code as many times as necessary .
On Android devices, we have a menu called "A near the phone" in the general settings. Once we access this menu, we can click on "Status" and the IMEI code will appear on the screen among other data.
