Fiery Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 It shows the serial number that the device manufacturer (in your case: Samsung) has encoded in the Android profile of the device. Only Samsung knows what it may refer to It could be the actual device serial number, IMEI number, or even the MAC address of the WiFi or GSM adapter, etc. Regards, Fiery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But manufacturer report me something like this: "We do not have any idea , what information is displayed by the other vendor's apps and where it had been taken". I think, this is serial for motherboard, not device itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 It was taken from Build.SERIAL, directly, there's no magic there at all. You can read more about that Android value at: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html#SERIAL It refers to it as hardware serial number, but as I've mentioned above, it's simply a value that the manufacturer of the device encoded there. It could refer to basically anything that the manufacturer chooses, or could even be a bogus value that is the same in every device. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the method for Samsung Galaxy Ace to get serial number: String serial = null; try if { Class<?> c = Class.forName("android.os.SystemProperties"); Method get = c.getMethod("get", String.class); serial = (String) get.invoke(c, "ril.serialnumber"); } catch (Exception ignored) { } Please, rewrite code for Samsung Galaxy Ace Smartphone in your next updates. Thank you so much. By the way, in ASUS MEMO HD7 tablet is everything OK. Serial is OK. PS. As I understood this method is for devices with Radio Interface Layer ("ril.*"). So that it's for you to think how check if the device supports telephony. And if so, display this method, but else dislpay another ("ro.*" or "sys.*") I tried make that in my project, and I had success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
