ESN's are an 8 digit hexidecimal number or an 11 digit decimal number. Either one represents a 32 bit binary value.
Keep in mind that one digit of HEX equals 4 binary bits.
| Manufacturer ID | Serial Number |
| HEX | 0-F | 0-F | 0-F | 0-F | 0-F | 0-F | 0-F | 0-F |
| BIN | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X |
| DEC | 0-255 | 00000000-16777215 |
For example:
ESN HEX: E6 9F FF FF
The Manufacturer Code is E6 (hex) or 230 (dec).
The Serial Number is 9F FF FF (hex) or 10485759 (dec).
So the decimal ESN is: 23010485759
Conversely, for decimal ESN: 23010485759
The Manufacturer Code is 230 (dec) or E6(hex).
The Serial Number is 10485759 (dec) or 9F FF FF (hex).
So the hex ESN is: E6 9F FF FF
