Nexus 7 Serial Number? topic

So my tablet has recently contracted a backlight bleed, and I'm RMAing the thing to Asus. They have asked for the serial number be clearly printed somewhere, and if it is not also on the device the warranty is void.

I'm confused - there was never a sticker on the device at all, nor is there anything on the box. The only way to find it out on the device is to go into Settings --> About --> Status, but I'm not sure this is correct. Could anyone post the first few characters of their serial, and also inform me if I must have mistakenly peeled off a sticker or something?

Thanks!

[Q] Corrupt serial number and model ID topic

So I can't seem to find a solution to my specific issue. A little background first. I was on Modaco switch beta 13 and decided I'd move on to something else because 1) hadn't been an update for quite a while and 2) I really didn't switch back to Sense except when I wanted to play around with Zoe. I restarted into CWM recovery and tried to flash CM 11. It gave me an error and I realized I was downlevel on CWM recovery. I tried to flash an updated CWM and now only have access to fastboot. When I try to boot to recovery it gives me the HTC splashscreen and hangs. I tried TWRP, CWM, and stock with the same results.

Checking fastboot getvar I noticed some really strange entries. serialno and modelid were corrupt. Here is the output of fastboot getvar all

Code:

---

I read the following post to recover my serial number
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1724475

I don't believe I had the ENG hboot so I get the following:

Code:

---

fastboot oem writemid PN07120
...
(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!

# fastboot oem writeserialno 1234567890

I tried flashing the ENG hboot, but....

Code:

---

# fastboot flash zip ENG_hboot.zip

Yep, catch 22. Corrupt model ID, so it won't flash.

Another interesting thing I noticed was the 2nd line on the display in fastboot

Code:

---

**** UNLOCKED ****
M7_UL UNKNOWN SHIP S-OFF RH
CID=BS_US001
HBOOT-1.44.0000
RADIO-4A.14.3250.13

eMMC-boot
...

Anyway one of the messages in the forums said that once they resolved the model ID and serial number everything worked.

Unfortunately this is my main phone and I'd like to use it. Not very useful right now. Anyone have any ideas?
