Get my wifi ip address Android

Question

How can I get the ip address of my phone when it is connected under wifi?

I found a method here but it returns something like 24.182.239.255 even if I\'m under wifi

This will get you the WiFi IPv4, IPv6 or both.

public static Enumeration getWifiInetAddresses(final Context context) {
    final WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
    final WifiInfo wifiInfo = wifiManager.getConnectionInfo();
    final String macAddress = wifiInfo.getMacAddress();
    final String[] macParts = macAddress.split(":");
    final byte[] macBytes = new byte[macParts.length];
    for (int i = 0; i< macParts.length; i++) {
        macBytes[i] = (byte)Integer.parseInt(macParts[i], 16);
    }
    try {
        final Enumeration e =  NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces();
        while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
            final NetworkInterface networkInterface = e.nextElement();
            if (Arrays.equals(networkInterface.getHardwareAddress(), macBytes)) {
                return networkInterface.getInetAddresses();
            }
        }
    } catch (SocketException e) {
        Log.wtf("WIFIIP", "Unable to NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces()");
    }
    return null;
}

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public static T getWifiInetAddress(final Context context, final Class inetClass) {
    final Enumeration e = getWifiInetAddresses(context);
    while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
        final InetAddress inetAddress = e.nextElement();
        if (inetAddress.getClass() == inetClass) {
            return (T)inetAddress;
        }
    }
    return null;
}

Usage:

final Inet4Address inet4Address = getWifiInetAddress(context, Inet4Address.class);
final Inet6Address inet6Address = getWifiInetAddress(context, Inet6Address.class);

And don't forget:
