[android-developers] Cannot get ANDROID_ID on 1.6 systems

2010-11-15 Thread John Gaby
I am using the following to obtain the ANDROID_ID for the device:

Settings.Secure.getString(getContentResolver(),
Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID);

Unfortunately this is returning null on 1.6 system (emulator and
actual devices).

I have also tried using

Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID;

which is deprecated, but that does not work either.

Does anyone know how to get a unique device id for version 1.6?

Thanks.

That should work on devices. It returned null on the emulator until
2.2 (or maybe 2.1, not sure when they made that cutover). But I have
definitely gotten it to work on 1.6 devices, though I haven't tried in
quite some time.
