Hex MEID check

Client

Hex MEID check focuses on the 14-character hexadecimal body (plus optional 15th check digit) common on CDMA device labels. Paste A–F and digits for local mod-16 Luhn validation.

Hex MEID layout

Positions map to reporting body (first two hex), manufacturer code (next six), and serial (final six) before the optional check digit.

Privacy: checksum math runs locally in your tab. Toolcore does not query carrier or TIA MEID databases—format and Luhn check only.
?

CDMA MEIDs appear as 14 hexadecimal digits plus an optional check digit (15 total), or as an 18-digit decimal form with its own check digit. Hex values containing A–F use Luhn mod‑16; all‑ decimal hex uses Luhn mod‑10—same family as IMEI on GSM handsets.

Result

GSM devices use IMEI instead—open IMEI checker when the label shows a 15-digit decimal identifier.
