Ok I just tried with my one and only activity, still returns null:
class MyActivity extends Activity {
private String mId;
@Override
public void onCreate(..) {
mId = Settings.Secure.getString(this, ...);
}
}
I just pop it up via a dialog box, tried looking at it in LogCat too
(with phone hooked up), same. I'm stumped!
