I am try to get GetDeviceId but I get this error

If you set targetSDK to 23+ then you NEED to use Runtimepermissions!
Read phone state is a dangerous permission.

Use runtimepermissions lib and request permission (see tutorial).

Or set targetSDK to 22.

I did the deviceid and it works.
You must use it accordingly

He is not using RuntimePermissions lib in the code he posted. But he is using TargetSDK 25.

I set the targetSDK to 22.
C:\Android\android-sdk\platforms\android-22\android.jar

in Manifester Editor I Add
AddPermission(android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE)

I get the same error

PS
I am using Galalaxy s8 Plus

Thanks for the help

Finish to fix this , the app ask for permission will the app always ask for permission for first time ?

1. C:\Android\android-sdk\platforms\android-22\android.jar

2.Manifester Editor
AddPermission(android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE)

3. runtimepermissions lib

4. Activity_Create
rp.CheckAndRequest(rp.PERMISSION_READ_PHONE_STATE)

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'These variables can be accessed from all modules.
    Dim rp As RuntimePermissions
End Sub

Sub Activity_PermissionResult (Permission As String, Result As Boolean)
    Log($"Permission: ${Permission}
Result: ${Result}"$)


End Sub

Read phone state is a dangerous permission.

still have problem with this
I was using PhoneId to login into Mysql database

maybe I need to find in the forum/librarie to lock the app for first time with PIN number

It should work if the targetSdkVersion is set to 22.
