Um. I know that if I dial *#06# it would return the IMEI number, but each carrier might differ so it's probably not a good solution, I would stick with the cellphone number since that's accessible.

My next question would be is my app able to access the MEID or the IMEI number or is that something that can't be accessed? -----Original Message----- From: android-developers@googlegroups.com [mailto:android-develop...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Indicator Veritatis Sent: Thursday, December 23, 2010 7:07 PM To: Android Developers Subject: [android-developers] Re: Unique Phone ID I can confirm for you that the MEID is most certainly not the same as ANDROID ID. Furthermore, MEID is unique to CDMA phones, so my T-Mobile G2, for example, does not have one. It has an IMEI instead. Like any other GSM phone.
