How to Get IMEI numbers from tabs programatically in php [closed]

Answer 1

Will your webpage be loading inside an app? If yes, then you could use How to get the device's IMEI/ESN programmatically in android? to get the same

Otherwise, if you are just loading the page inside the phone's browser, I am afraid it will not allow you to do access the IMEI

By the way, there are several other ways of authentication besides IMEI. Do you have any specific requirements to use only IMEI. If you post your authentication needs, we might be able to suggest alternative solutions.

Answer 2

So, essentially you only want to have your web page available, that Android devices access?

Your client is a browser and browser just doesn't send out that kind of information. Look at the request headers for what's available. And this would be a huge privacy issue if it did.

So if you really have that kind of requirements, you have to create your own Android app. And while there is Quercus (that can run PHP on JVM), I think a mash-up browser with Android Java SDK would be a lot easier to accomplish. PHP5 is very similar in syntax to Java anyways.
