How to find MEID of CDM 8945 VW flip phone?

[szr888]

I have an old Verizon UTStarcom (Audiovox) CDM 8945 VW "V-cast" phone that I got back around 2007-2008-ish and I'm trying to find what the MEID. I've googled around quite a bit and found dialer codes for getting into debug mode and other some such, but I've yet to find one that actually tells me what the MEID (or ESN) is.

I still have the original box, though it's at another location (I'm slowly moving things to another house little by little and it's in a big box over there where I'm not at right now) so that wont be an option for about a month.

Is there any sort of code I can enter? Thanks for any help.

Also, I don't see the number under (or on) the battery either.

look in the settings menu in the phone info part,or use one many free tools to read it such as qpst,but really it should be under the battery on a sticker,that phone may only have a 11 digit esn and no meid.
why dont you take a pic of the sticker and post it here.

Thanks. I've already scoured Menu -> SETTINGS & TOOLS. I've looked under System -> Device Info and anywhere else.

I do however see an 11 digit number under the batter (although there is no label stating ESN or anything else for it, just the number byitself): 00414469439. Do ESN number correlate directly to MEID numbers? Thanks.

Is it possible to lookup the MEID from the ESN number?

I think that device is too old and it has only esn not mied.
