i don't think you can - most handsets send the tmsi instead .....
I reject your reality and substitute my own. |

Hi Sir,
Thanks for your precious suggestion, but my professor's told me that this is possible might be with not this NOKIA 3310, but from some other mobiles, i have NOKIA E63 also, so please suggest some thing through which i can get IMSI.

because the imsi number is unique to the sim card (and therefore secret) it's normally
encrypted by the phone's software - hence you normally can only get the tmsi. The imei
number is broadcast, but not the imsi number.

Hi Sir,
Thanks for your reply and for your precious suggestion, i already know these things that IMSI is unique and encrypted number of sim it belongs to the service provider and during each call establishment cell get a unique number which you called TMSI and by #06# we can get our mobile phone's IMEI number, so there must be some way by which i can get IMSI number of my sim, i searched and found there are some hardware tools available by the help of which we get IMSI but it is too costly, anyway thanks for your reply once again. |
