Hi,

I have the following problem and wondering if anyone has any ideas...

When I retreive the IMEI from P900 programatically using PlpVariant::GetMachineId()

I get: 123456-00-123456-1

However, when I use *#06#,

I get: 123456-00-123456-1-03

The last two digits never show up when doing in software retreival...

Same applies to P910 with the new IMEI format, I do get two digits at the end...

Does anyone have any idea about what this last number means and where does it come from?  Can it be determined programatically?

Thanks in advance,

Anton
