Edit: Since Android 10, you cannot request IMEI and MEID unless you have READ_PRIVILEGED_PHONE_STATE permission

Should not it be something like this?

            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 26) {
                if (telMgr.getPhoneType() == TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_CDMA) {
                    deviceId = telMgr.getMeid();
                } else if (telMgr.getPhoneType() == TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_GSM) {
                    deviceId = telMgr.getImei();
                } else {
                    deviceId = ""; // default!!!
                }
            } else {
                deviceId = telMgr.getDeviceId();
            }
