Embodiment Construction

[0029] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0030] Such as figure 1 Shown, a kind of anti-theft method based on IMEI code, comprises steps:

[0031] Based on the IMEI code of the mobile terminal, a password is generated according to predetermined rules;

[0032] A password verification program is set on the mobile terminal, and the password verification program compares the acquired input information with the password, if the input information is consistent with the password, the mobile terminal can be used normally, and if not, the mobile terminal cannot be used.

[0033] The predetermined rule may be an encryption algorithm based on IMEI, and the usage password generated according to the encryption algorithm is unique.

[0034] Since the mobile terminal is provided with a password generated based on the IMEI code of the mobile terminal according to predetermined rules, the mobile te...

Abstract

The invention discloses an international mobile equipment identifier (IMEI) code based anti-theft method. The method comprises the steps of generating a use passcode based on an IMEI code of a mobile terminal according to a preset rule; and setting a use passcode verification procedure on the mobile terminal, and comparing, by the use password verification procedure, acquired input information with the use password, wherein if the input information and the use password are identical, the mobile terminal can be used normally, if the input information and the use password are not identical, the mobile terminal cannot be used. Through adoption of the method, the cellphone can be prevented from being stolen in the inventory period after shipment of the producer and before sale of the merchant, and cannot be used normally, so that mobile terminals in the inventory period are less likely to be stolen, and circulation of the stolen mobile terminals is prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, and more specifically, relates to an anti-theft method based on an IMEI code. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, mobile terminals have become an indispensable electronic device for people's life and work. At the same time, the functions of mobile terminals are becoming more and more powerful. The loss or theft of terminals has become a very common thing, which will bring certain dangers of economic losses to people. [0003] The existing anti-theft method is to obtain the illegal user's information by means of information return when using the SIM card of the mobile terminal, so as to realize the method of anti-theft retrieval or anti-theft locking. The information of the illegal user includes the position of the mobile terminal , mobile phone number, base station number, etc. [0004] Existing anti-theft recovery methods all need to be carried out after the ...
