Hi I have not been able to find any code to display China phone hardware specifications. EG my supplier is sending over 2 phones in a bunch which are dual band, the rest are quad band, but they forgot to mark which one. So I need to know which of them are 4 band, and which 2 band! They dont know how, their engineers, or so they say dont know!!

Have gone through several sites secret code info, but cant find anything that looks remotely like what I need.
thanks vm.

NZCoderGuy: what are the brand of phones?

They are a generic model called I6Pro. I would not have any idea who makes them but they are quite common.

Why not enter the IMEI from the phones here, you should find it behind the battery on the case.
Then click More Info (or something similar), and copy the details back here, less the IMEI.
This should give us some idea of the phones actual manufactuer and model.

Can only think of the IMEI (Device ID) *#06#

This is unique to the device, also the first set of digits (TAC) should translate to the Make and Model of phone. Hopefully the engineers can help you resolve those numbers.

Just remember that "quad-band" in this case is GSM (2G). That 850MHz *is not* the same as Telecom XT. Just for the record, just in case, you know...
