Hi,
I have Fujitsu-Siemens Loox n560.
Is it possible to change Device Serial Number somehoiw?
Iam talking about this:
START -> Settings -> System Informations -> Identity -> Device Serial Number
My loox has broke down and service had changed mainboard so the serial has changed also, my navigation software refuse to work with new serial. My subscription has ended some time ago so i cannot count for software delveloper ;[
Is there any hope for me or i havo to start looking for my program at emule?
Does anyone know or have any idea where the Kindle Serial Number is located in the device? (not through the menu but stored within the device), the reason I ask is because I am testing eldarerathis' FFF extended bootloader and I was tinkering with flashing Stock ROM (rooted) to the alternate partitions, funny thing is that for some reason the OS is unable to retrieve the Serial Number and so you can't register the device with Amazon. I've looking through every file within the ROM and I have not been able to identify anything that could possibly give me a hint of where the Serial Number is located.
Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions are greatly appreciated.

If it was sitting in some file, it would be much too easy to spoof and lead to sharing Prime accounts, etc. It would have to be embedded in the hardware somewhere. That's my way of telling you that I have no idea why that setup would have a hard time retrieving the serial number.

Why are things like this in the Dev section? This needs to be moved to Q&A
The only reason is I feel there is a better chance of getting a response for this type of question from active devs than most regular users. If not agreed by a moderator I'll gladly move this to the Q&A.
I recently bought a Kindle Fire from Ebay and I'm unable to register it on Amazon.
The amazon reps told me that the serial number is blacklisted and recomanded me to return the device to sender and ask for refund.
Well, I'm unable to do that and I don't want to install a custom rom on it.
The serial should be located within the software, and there should be a way to change it (like adding IMEI - see the guide in the dev section).
will it work with fastboot ? does this change the serial number or jst the number that 'adb devices' will display ?
fastboot -s <serial number> specify device serial number
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
you say you dont want to install a custom rom but its really the best and easyiest way around it... I recommend this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439916

It wouldn't do you any good to change the serial number. There's a corresponding security key number paired with it, so changing one won't help without the other. Since Modaco is just an enhanced version of the stock software, it wouldn't be any different either in terms of obtaining Amazon services on the device (sorry pooch).
Contact ebay/paypal and file a dispute.
Hi guys, I want to retrieve the serial number of the device from adb. The S/N is not reported in the battery entry. So I want to try to retrive it from ADB. Can you explain me how to do that?
Thank you!
Hi,
Due to a repair under warranty, my IMEI stayed the same and my Device Id changed. Therefor I can't unlock my device anymore.
LG is unwilling to cooperate with changing the IMEI DeviceId combination in there database. I could file a complaint with my provider who changed the behaviour of my phone after a repair. The cunsumer authority in my country said that I would win the lawsuit but I don't want to put in the effort...
I still know my old device Id. Is there a way to change the device Id and use the old unlock file?
Is the Device Id LG asks for the same Id as the Android device id?
Thanks a lot!!

No you can't change the device id, it's fused into the device. Your best bet is to keep bugging LG to accept your new IMEI/DevId combination.
Found a tool called Qualcomm flash tool. Maybe it will do the job. Just need to know where it's stored.
Saw an LG G7 with the serial number blank/unpopulated. What does that mean and can it be restored? IMEI and everything else looks normal.

All of that is nvram data, it is all stored in the efs partition.
Serial number is not really important as its there for verifying when needed. IMEI is needed to connect to a network.
You can always use a app like cdma workshop to fill the serial number back in if its still on the case.
Thanks for the tip. Any other option for reflashing serial number? Can't seem to find a current version of CDMA Workshop and not sure if that would work with G7.
In order not to create a new topic, I will write here. I have the same problem, the erased serial number.
Is there a real working way that will restore the serial number? Thank.
