IMEI number submission to government survey
This survey is aimed at looking at the the public opinion in giving out their mobile IMEI number to the Federal Government. The data we are collecting will try to gauge the opinion of the public about submitting their IMEI number.
Every mobile device has a unique numerical identity known as the International Mobile Equipment Identity, or IMEI.
This number is used to distinguish each gadget from the others. If you take your phone in for repair, the IMEI number will be used to distinguish it from the millions of other iPhones.
A normal IMEI number is a 14-digit string with a 15th check digit to ensure that the entire string is correct. The IMEISV is a 16-digit variation of the IMEI that provides information on the device’s software version.
Depending on the revision, manufacturing location, and other considerations, several models have multiple TACs. The iPhone 5C, for example, has five separate TAC codes.
The six C numbers reflect your device’s unique serial number, which is determined by the handset manufacturer. The D digit is a check digit that confirms the IMEI complies with the Allocation and Approval Guidelines. The check digit is provided on the packaging to prevent inaccurate IMEI registration, although it is not part of the IMEI that is recorded.
While the IMEI number is important, it isn’t the only statutory need for your smartphone. Manufacturers must follow the rules in each place where they want to market their products. The IMEI does not indicate that the device complies with any of the other safety or regulatory criteria.
The IMEI of your device can be found in a few different ways. The most general method is to use the dialer app on your device. The IMEI will be displayed on the screen if you dial *#06#.
If you have an Android or iOS smartphone, you can find the IMEI in Settings. On iOS, go to Settings > General > About and look for the IMEI. It’s as simple as tapping and holding on the IMEI number to copy it. Although Android devices vary, the IMEI can usually be found by going to Settings > About Phone.
There are alternative ways to find your IMEI if you can’t access your device. The IMEI should be displayed on a label on the retail box. If your gadget has a replaceable battery, the IMEI can usually be found underneath it. The IMEI is printed on the back of many devices. The IMEI is inscribed on the SIM tray on some iPhones, such as the iPhone 6s and later.
