If you want to learn some more check this very good explanation on MEID/ESN/pESN---> http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1360767
I was told by my network provider that they dont support meid as of now....

but they can happily activate my number on this phone if i could find a way to give them the esn.

RE: actually the esn number showed by my phone starts from 8 and their system doesnt support an esn that starts with 8...

i wonder why is this problem occuring but its like that only..


today i went to their office and gave them checksum number that was also 8 digit number.. the touch which i am using right now stopped working and the diamond on which i need to activate the number was not working aswell..

due to which i again need to ask them to change the esn back to that of my touch..


Please everyone..... Know what i have paid huge amount for this thing but right now it is nothing apart from a brick in my pocket to me..

If you all could help me out i will be more than happy and would be thankful to you alot...


Regards
