hi fellas,

I upgraded my phone the other day to wm5 and have recently noticed that 2 extra numbers have been added on to the end of my imei no. since the upgrade.

Is this normal???

Cheers

Some phones may have an IMEI number that has 17 digits; always use the first 15 digits only if you need to provide the IMEI.

gman2207,
IMEI is International Mobile station Equipment Identity.
IMEI = TAC + FAC + SNR + CD
Where
IMEI = International Mobile station Equipment Identity
TAC = Type Approval Code
FAC = Final Assembly Code
SNR = Serial Number
CD = Check Digit

But later so called IMEISV appeared - International Mobile station Equipment Identity and Software Version Number. Last two digits are SVN - Software Version Number.
IMEISV = TAC + FAC + SNR + CD + SVN
TAC = Type Approval Code
FAC = Final Assembly Code
SNR = Serial Number
CD = Check Digit
SVN = Software Version Number

So the appearance of two mysterious digits in your IMEI is absolutely normal.
