    Well that's why you watch them do it. Since they only need to plug in a data cable there is no need to take out the battery and if they do, that's when you can get suspicious.
    erm, yes they do need to take out the battery (when unlocking sony ericssons) to allow the unlocking program to boot the custom code written onto the phone and complete the unlocking procedure.

    to get the imei of a sony eircsson phone all it takes is to plug in a data cable (with the phone turned off) and run the identify scripts with the phone boot into the service mode
