how to decode android.os.Build.SERIAL?

Question

I\'m working on the recurring serial number topic to provide a unique id.

I try this :

       String serial = null; 

        try {
            Clas         


        

Answer 1

If you want to get the serial number as shown on the back of the device and if you are using the Samsung Galaxy Tab then why not use the 'ril.serialnumber' property

Items changed to what your device should show:

$ adb shell getprop | grep serial
[ril.serialnumber]: [RF2C202WYME]
[ro.boot.serialno]: [c4f12fdd949f22f]
[ro.serialno]: [c4f12fdd949f22f]

Pre-jellybean 'ro.boot.serialno' didn't exist
