Thanks gaming-guy. I've no idea how to move a thread & although I looked for one about mobiles, I didn't spot one!!! I must be excitable today or something!

I did an EEprom reset without being fully knowledgable so I've gone & set the IMEI to zeros. D'oh!!! I wasn't completely aware that it'd reset IMEI. I read somewhere that even if you have the original box, receipt, everything intact, no-one would try to resolve it because it's illegal. Don't see how as nothing is being changed, it's just being reset to how it should be.

Altering an IMEI number in any way is illegal and actually AFAIR has an offence all of its own. So I think you'll find it hard finding someone who has software to alter an IMEI number or will admit to being able to as how are they to know you're not from Trading Standards?
