@IstiaqRony

if you dial the number on that link, do you get the same IMEI number ?

Re: IMEI INVALID !

IstiaqRony — Mon, 15 Jun 2015 21:15:00 GMT

But why I should have Only one IMEI number when there is Dual sim slot..?
I thought, each sim slot belongs only one IMEI number..
Am I wrong?

@IstiaqRony

That's rather interesting, let's wait for @Rickard to reply

how many IMEI numbers do you get from the plastic flap under the SIM cover?

Re: IMEI INVALID !

IstiaqRony — Mon, 15 Jun 2015 21:26:35 GMT

There is two plastic flap under the SIM cover..
One of 'em contains Sony & its other trademark info..
And the other one shows two different IMEI..

These two 15 Digits IMEI is same except last 2 digits..

@IstiaqRony

ok, lets wait on Rickard to clarify this.

Some dual phones have one and some have two IMEI numbers - Think of it as one for each SIM slot - It's simply put a way or identifying which SIM slot was or is been used for the SIM that's inserted in slot one and two and can also be used to track which or what device that SIM is been used in so SIM tools can download the correct Mobile data and MMS settings - However if sites are giving the wrong info out then those sites may have the wrong info listed or the info listed hasn't been changed as the numbers may be what's called dead ie: haven't been used for a long time so get redistributed

Hope this helps

What Thommo says above is correct. Some phones (with dual SIM) does have two IMEI numbers.
