Decoding iPhone 4 serial numbers?
I have found a lot of info on this on the internet yet none of it seems to apply to me. My serial number starts with DX4 and I have not been able to locate how to decode this type of serial number. I know supposedly the 4 means the year but how is that possible that would mean my phone was made in 2004 but it is an iPhone 4?
Added (1). I did not misread the year I'm just giving the first three characters of my phone DX4 based on what i've found that 4 should be the year but that's impossible
I think you may have misread the year made, please see the below link. The first Iphone came out in 2007.

- Is it safe to give my iPhone IMEI and serial #s?

- Iphone 3gs flash ipad baseband 6.15 then downgrade possible on newer serial #? I'm not entirely sure if this will work as some say it'll brick, while few others have claimed it'll work. Can anyone verify or confirm this for sure? Basically will these methods work? Iphone 3GS with newer serial # manufactured "after" 134 (2011, week 34). 1) Flash ipad baseband 6.15 2) Then downgrade baseband using cydia to baseband 5.13 3) If above step doesn't work, downgrade to custom firmware 4.1, then use cydia to downgrade baseband to 5.13.
