One more problem in parsing the special charector??

[rajan701v]

Hi Everyone !!

I have one more issue .. My application access the IMEI Number using System.getProperty("com.nokia.mid.imei");
I am using Nokia C6 mobile - My imei number is like this --- AA/BBBBBB/NNNN (In between there is foward slash)
In Nokia 6220 Classic IMEI Number is like this ---- AABBCCNNDJJD(No forward slash).

What i am doing is sending this IMEI to the webservice. It will check the IMEI from the MySql database at server end. If there is entry in the list of IMEI Numbers in mysql database. Then, It will move further .

The things are going fine in Nokia 6220 Classic . But the same application when running on Nokia C6 mobile.It is not authenticating. Is there any issue while comparing the above format(when comparing with forward slash(/))

Or is there any other issue ..

Please Reply.

Hi Rajan Verma,

Is your IMEI number saved properly in DB ?
How are you sending your IMEI number to the server ? As a parameter ? Then you need to urlEncode your IMEI number.

Yes, i am sending the IMEI as a parameter like
String st = System.getProperty("com.nokia.mid.imei");

String result = stub.authenticate(st);

Means i have to encode the URL before sending it as parameter and at webservice end i have to decode it into correct format.

Please Reply..

Before you are sending the IMEI number to the web service, just remove the slash and then you can send.

I will recommend you to use the POST mode of request and not sending the IMEI number using the GET, as the query strings.

Let us know your inputs,

Hi rajan701v ,
Encode only the param values not the entire the url. You no need to decode it.

Ok in between..

Is there any difference between the following :

1.) Using System property to fetch the IMEI Number, and

2.) Using *#06# to find the IMEI Number.

Hi ,

I think it could be same.

Actually i am using JSR-172 API and accessing the webservice and passing the parameter to the particular method as in webservice which identifies the IMEI Number.
I am not using GET and POST Method

It's urgent...

I have run same application in these mobiles:

1.) Nokia C300 which is S40 6th Edition(initial release) Nokia OS.

2.) Nokia 6220 Classic which is S60 3rd Edition Feature pack 2, Symbian OS.

3.) Nokia E72 which is S60 3rd Edition Feature pack 2, Symbian OS.


But only Nokia C300 is not able to work properly. In other two it is working properly. As discussed it is not able to authenticate the IMEI from the webservice.

What are the possible reasons would be there ???

Does this help?

By the way, the IMEI follows a standard. Just check the String contains only numbers. Then check its internal check-sum (perhaps remote at your server).
