:sign0060:Now it really works!! I wish to thank Raytracer for a finding of this method, maXim for making me happy:) and agraham for helping maXim to making me happy :sign0188: It looks like a new era of protecting programs, written on Basic4PPC... I can now use IMEI to generate serial numbers to my programs, instead of owner names... This thread is an answer to many other threads like this, this, this and many others... Now i have the last question - will this method work on all devices, or it have some limitations like GetDeviceID in Hardware lib, which return an empty string on some devices?

Problem with getting the IMEI

Hello!

In my application, I read the IMEI with the phoneID.dll:

B4X:
phoneID.New1
phoneID.setstrings=""

It runs on serveral devices (also on a Glofiish X600), but on the Eten Glofiish X650, the line phoneID.setstring="" gets an error. Then, I have tried it with db2000 GetInfoDevice. This runs also on several devices, but not on the x650. Is there another way to read the IMEI or can I use another line instead of phoneID.setstrings=""?

Thanks for help....
