Someone gave me a Password locked phone

I guess their really wasnt really a question in there was there.. How do I get past the pin lock and or find the IMEI? 

Some phones have a way to hard reset with certain button combination while powering on the phone. Would need to know make and model to find that out.

Though the battery is not removable, is the phone completely sealed? If not you can get some info by removing the back cover. If fully sealed, then details about the phone would normally be etched on it. Just do not post the IMEI in this forum as that is private to your phone and don't want that listed in a public space. But you can use the IMEI to decode what phone it is.

If that fails, then you would need the original owner's assistance unlocking it.

If it's pin code locked it's probably also account user locked and it could even be blacklisted. As long as someone gave it to you there's no loss. If you spent money on it you probably got ripped off.

   Probably better off getting your own phone

If the screen is locked on the phone, you may be able to reset it, but that would depend on what model phone it is.  If there is anything related to an account, like with AT&T, Apple, or whatever, you would need to provide account credentials to the related companies, which I’m guessing you don’t have.
