Embodiment Construction

[0011] The invention relates to a method for identifying a mobile phone (device) in which there is an ADD system 1 (Automatic Device Detection) connected to a network 2 for mobile communication, the ADD system 1 comprising a TCD 3 (Terminal Capability Database) , which stores the SAT (Sim Application Toolkit) terminal profile values ​​for all device 4 models. Each device is equipped with a SIM card 5 for enabling communication with other devices via the network 2 .

[0012] A device means any device capable of communicating with other devices over the network, however, the following uses a mobile phone (referred to as a "device") as an example.

[0013] According to the invention, the method for identifying a device comprises the steps of: retrieving the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number from the device, retrieving the device model and SAT terminal configuration file from the TCD through the retrieved IMEI, obtaining the SAT terminal configuration of the ac...

Abstract

Method for identifying a mobile telephone, a device, where there is a ADD system (1) (Automatic Device Detection) system connected to a network (2) for mobile communication, the ADD system comprising a TCD (3) (Terminal Capabilities Database) with SAT (SIM Application Toolkit) terminal profile values stored for all device (4) models. The invention is characterised in, the steps of retrieving the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number from the device (4), retrieving the device model and the SAT terminal profile (P2) from the TCD (3) by means of the retrieved IMEI, obtaining the SAT terminal profile (Pl) of the actual device (4), comparing the SAT terminal profile (P1) of the actual device with the SAT terminal profile (P2) obtained from the TCD (3) in the ADD system (1) and considering the device (4) as having the right IMEI number in case the SAT terminal profile of the actual device (P1) and the SAT terminal profile (P2) obtained from the TCD (3) coincide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for identifying a mobile phone. Background technique [0002] The identity of the mobile device or mobile terminal or mobile phone (hereinafter "device") is sometimes determined by automatic detection. Usually, this means finding out the IMEI number (International Mobile Equipment Identity) of the device. The phone model can be inferred from said IMEI. Knowing the device identity is necessary for certain operations on the mobile phone, such as provisioning. [0003] It is possible to change IMEI from original IMEI. In such cases, the ADD system (Automatic Device Detection) then has the problem of correctly identifying the device phone. This means that the ADD system will not recognize the device at all or will identify it incorrectly, eg as a different model than the actual one. [0004] Manipulation of devices can be used for different fraud attacks. A user may benefit from having the user's operator identify th...
