Nokia N73

Someone sent me this method to identify the source of mobile phone assembly/manufacturing unit.

Type *#06# and press DIAL [green button]

After you enter the code you will see the IMEI code : 154526009564585 [sample number]

IF the Seventh & Eighth digit numbers are 02 or 20 that means it was assembled in Emirates, which is very Bad quality.

IF the Seventh & Eighth digit numbers are 08 or 80 that means it’s manufactured in Germany which is not bad

IF the Seventh & Eighth digit numbers are 01 or 10 that means it’s manufactured in Finland which is Good

IF the Seventh & Eighth digit numbers are 00 that means it was manufactured in original factory which is the best Mobile Quality …[bingo I have 00]

IF the Seventh & Eighth digit numbers are 13 that means it was Assembly on Azerbaijan which is very Bad quality and very dangerous for health!!!

This will help you to find out if the mobile is original or assembled one.Try it.

Dear Someone, dont worry. probably urs is mad in a country that is not in the list. there is no good or bad phone for health, as long as it was original Nokia. Most factories make the close good quality phones, if not equally best. just chill.... :)

I read this sometime before on the net and tried it.. Mine is 00 :-p .. Meaning that my phone is original, lol. This doesn't only work with Sony Ericsson by the way.
