I am not a Reliance subscriber
But I have purchased this phone today to be used with my local CDMA Provider
i.e. Ping
AND I think this phone has a genuine imei number
As when I enter the code it shows exactly the same imei number
that is printed on box and sticker inside phone
rather than showing some 12341234
As for drivers and software I don't know whether available Or Not
Now is it chinese OR not
I don't think So
Because the dealer in my city told me that it's a korean company
Now U decide what to do
