serial number can't change because its physically there.. as for IMEI, I couldn't confirm with you because I remember coming across people saying IMEI might be wipe, but i don't know how and why. normal flashing should be okay.  nod.gif

As far as i know, IMEI # is usually embedded with the GSM/3G Module in the phone, it is a fixed value which cannot be changed, its a unique code for the phones GSM/3G module, perhaps someone can verify this

guys i try 2 search previous posts but i don seems to find how to reset battery status?
*
I got this from XDA:

Ok so here is the instructions step by step

1) Charge the battery to full till you get the full battery message
2) Use the phone till it is totally empty (stops turning on)
3)Charge again to full till you get the message again
4) Download and install a terminal shell application from the market
5) Enter the following "su" press enter
6) Enter the following "rm /data/system/batterystats.bin" press enter

Best to Preform steps 4-6 while in charger

Enjoy


I think for steps 4, 5 and 6, we can do that with SGS Tools already.

Refer explanation on IMEI # via Wikipedia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International...ipment_Identity

seems like its a unique # for the GSM Module as i have mentioned

Samsung can verify the warranty with serial number. Sending in warranty card is not essential. You can even lose the warranty card and box and walk into Samsung.

IMEI can be wiped is EFS partition is wiped intentionally using Odin or if the firmware has a copy of EFS. Keep your EFS folder safe by copying it to your computer using Root Explorer or Terminal.

why your camera look like it have extra glass... you put something there for cover?


IMEI issue, yes your imei can get wipe if you flash something that is in experimental stage or you wrongly check EFS clear in odin. but it can be restore like mengsuan said, keep you /EFS file somewhere safe such as dropbox. copy the folder using root explorer, and upload it.

check your imei first, if it still not change, then back it up, it doesnt matter how many times you flash as long as your imei still the same

this can make customer easier to claim warranty without bringing documents like iPhone(can check warranty period by inputting IMEI)

not really..once the battery is full u can plug it out because the battery will stop charging itself when it is full
so there is no point to keep charging when it is "not charging after full"

it is recommended to charge 8 hours for the 1st time for all electronic device i bought, but as im been told, lithium battery (the one we use) dont have memory install in it,
try checking the 1st page, 1st post at below2 section if not mistaken got some tips about battery.

factory reset will never change IMEI, if your IMEI already change, then factory reset dont solve it also
