Delphi XE5 Firemonkey Android IMEI | Delphi 11 10 XE8 XE7 XE Seattle Berlin Tokyo Rio Firemonkey Delphi Android Delphi IOSHere is a code snippet which gets the Android device IMEI for you using the Android JNI. The IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) is a unique device ID separate from your SIM card. Accessing the IMEI also requires that your app has the READ_PHONE_STATE permission to be able to access it. I’m not sure who wrote the original example code but on the Embarcadero forum Remy Lebeau posted this code snippet in October of 2013. Here is the full permission line for the Android manifest:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
And here is the code snippet:
uses
Androidapi.JNI.Telephony, Androidapi.JNI.Provider ,
Androidapi.JNIBridge, Androidapi.JNI.GraphicsContentViewText ,
Androidapi.JNI.JavaTypes,FMX.Helpers.Android;

var
obj: JObject;
tm: JTelephonyManager;
identifier: String;
begin
obj := SharedActivityContext.getSystemService(TJContext.JavaClass.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
if obj <> nil then
begin
tm := TJTelephonyManager.Wrap( (obj as ILocalObject).GetObjectID );
if tm <> nil then
identifier := JStringToString(tm.getDeviceId);
end;
if identifier = '' then
identifier := JStringToString(TJSettings_Secure.JavaClass.getString(SharedActivity.getContentResolver,
TJSettings_Secure.JavaClass.ANDROID_ID));

end;
There are also two other blog posts with slightly different code for retrieving the IMEI on Android with Delphi XE5 Firemonkey here and here.
