It's the identification number of each individual phone.

Hey, welcome to Esato!! Hope you have a good time here.
I'll try to add the others;
fw (abbreviation for "firmware"): Software which, integrated into the hardware, carries out the fundamental functions on a device. Sort of like BIOS on a computer, it provides a bridge between hardware and software. And fw version is simply the revision code of a specific firmware.
Firmware on Wiki
unlock phone: Some mobile phones are sold to work with a specific network, and are "locked" to that network service provider. In order to use those phones with other SIMs from different networks, you must unlock the phone with a firmware hack of sorts.
I hope this helps.. Cheers! |

@comfort mdu : No, the IMEI number is the serial number you get by typing : *#06#.
