  • okay …so my IMEI says “02” means its Bad Quality

    now my phone is covers Nokia warranty and it runs Symbian App’s and i can even update it when the latest firmware comes so how its BAD? :p

    this Post broke my heart 😥

  • But IMEI can be changed so how that refers to quality ?
    and who else got a IMEI with seventh and eight digit 01,00 or 10 ?

  • Ya… IMEI can be changed but the Original Markings are Original Bro… Changing The IMEI Doesn’t Change Where the Mobile Was Built/Manufactured or Assembled.. 😕
    Although you can change them If you just want to Show Off Your Mobile to Someone Who Knows About This… 😉

  • @Mukesh … just a question what quality difference it makes that my phone is made in bad area ?

    @Ding … yeah yeah dont be

    anyone with 00 or 01 ? symbian phones i am talking about

  • @ Dr-Hack… The Main Difference is just the quality material and the quality service they provide to the handset they manufacture… i.e whether the are using machines or doing that manually… and even if machines whether the machines are single turn/tier assembly or multiple..
