I am trying to generate SN and all serials start with C17 for my specified model, those all resides within China

Country: C17 - China Year: S - 2016 Week: 1 - 27 (01.07.2016-07.07.2016) Line: 0Z5 - 1127 (copy 1)

I am trying to make iMessage work and I doubt the code I always generate may not helping to make it work

The country code in the serial is the manufacturing location, not the sale region. It makes sense since Apple makes most of their products in China.

This shouldn't be an issue for iMessage as long as the serial is valid and unclaimed.
