I have the SAMSUNG Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 for eight days now. First I removed the T-Mobile branding and give the Samsung root. Because it to remove the branding was a free Smartphone, I have received two successive firmware updates from Samsung. As I had to find a firmware update can be changed at Samsung the device ID, which will be read out with the phones-lib.
The development equipment ID under settings / Developer options has not changed however. Accordingly, I have a unique ID, where I can assume that this not by a firmware update or a custom ROM is modified under ICS.
I am not sure, but if you know or can see the number under settings, you can try the options in the Phone lib and see if any return the number you are looking for. I do not have but one device with ICS and it does not have any numbers listed under the development tab.
Dim Content As List
Dim Buffer As String
Content.Initialize
Content = File.ReadList("/data/system/" , "packages.xml")
For I = 0 To Content.Size -1
Buffer = Content.Get(I)
If Buffer.IndexOf("verifier device=") > -1 Then
Buffer = Buffer.Replace(QUOTE, "").Replace("<verifier device=", "").Replace("/>", "")
Msgbox("Development ID = " & Buffer, "")
End If
Next
I see this ID only on my HTC devices running ICS, is this an HTC thing? please let me know.
You are right. The development equipment-ID is device independent. It is a future which was inserted from HC in the SDK. In my HTC Desire Classic (SLCD) returns no (null) me.
If one carries out real tests on multiple Android devices, you could for example the ID's adding and a sum of digits form. This could you assign the software of clearly the development, for example not always the software with a key to unlock. Will investigate times accordingly.
@all: Thank you for your help. When I've worked out a solution, I will publish them in the Foum.
I'm not sure what you mean by "Info for owners" but if you are referring to the "owner's info" (such as name. phone, etc) as far as I know is not part of the OS but an app that the manufacturer includes in certain devices.
Yes I mean the text under Security | Owner info. May be that this is an app. But the data must be stored somewhere. Sorry for my bad decision lisch I have just translated 1: 1.
