IMEI changed !

[bolide]

Yesterday, I did uprom to PDAViet Transfomer 1.0. I have used this rom for about 1 hours, then I did down to PDAViet 4.0.0.5b-cross, HR 2 times, imediately. then used 2 hours, HR 1 more time and changed my Radio to 2.69.21 After that I found that my IMEI changed, from xxxx xxxx xxxx xxx 00 to xxxx xxxx xxxx xxx 01
Did anyone get this problem????

No panic. The IMEI didn't change.
What you see is IMEISV, an extended IMEI with software version number. It has 17 decimal digits(14 digits plus 1 check digit plus 2 SVN digit). 14 most significant digits of the IMEISV without the SVN is the originial IMEI. The last 2 digit identifying the revision of the software installed on the phone.

For example, the IMEISV code 35703600-CCCCC-D-EE
35703600 identifies that it is HTC prophet model
CCCCC is the serial sequence of the model, uniquely identifying a unit of this model
D the Luhn check digit of the previous 14 digit IMEI
EE the 'software version number'

The SVN allows the manufacturer to identify different software versions of a given type approved mobile. The SVN is a separate field from the IMEI, although it is associated with the IMEI, and when the network requests the IMEI from the mobile, the SVN (if present) is also sent towards the network.

The biggest SVN I've seen for the prophet is 07. Has anyone got a bigger one?

After dialing *#06#, I get a number which is quite different from the number on the back of the phone. So seems it has changed after so many upgrades...

This phone worked well,after upgrades, in Germany and India but it does not seem to work in UK. I have tried Orange and Virgin operators but not able to make any calls.

Can someone suggest if I need to change IMEI. I tried updating radio rom to 2.69.xx.xx..but that didnt help.
