How to get Unique Device ID for Amazon Kindle Fire

To get the Unique Device ID on Android phones/tablets, we use the following:

((TelephonyManager) ctx.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE)).getDeviceId()

But for Kindle Fire, we can't get one.

Solution

  • You should try using the following line:

    deviceId = Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(), Secure.ANDROID_ID);

    This will get the device ID from tablets, the code you're using only works on phones (it will return null on tablets)
