No correct solution

OTHER TIPS

There are many things which people call a "device ID". Development device ID is different from what you get from TelephonyManager.getDeviceId() (and also different from Secure.ANDROID_ID). This Google Groups post seems to have done some research and narrowed it down to this code and related comment:

Returns the device identity that verifiers can use to associate their scheme to a particular device. This should not be used by anything other than a package verifier.

In short, don't try to use the Development Device ID. Use a different ID instead.
