Detecting Color of iPhone/iPad/iPod touch?

问题

Is there any way or hack to detect on what color (black / white) iPhone, iPad or iPod touch the iOS is installed?

I want to load corresponding UI skins in case of Black or White devices.

回答1:

There's a private API to retrieve both the DeviceColor and the DeviceEnclosureColor.

UIDevice *device = [UIDevice currentDevice];
SEL selector = NSSelectorFromString(@"deviceInfoForKey:");
if (![device respondsToSelector:selector]) {
    selector = NSSelectorFromString(@"_deviceInfoForKey:");
}
if ([device respondsToSelector:selector]) {
    NSLog(@"DeviceColor: %@ DeviceEnclosureColor: %@", [device performSelector:selector withObject:@"DeviceColor"], [device performSelector:selector withObject:@"DeviceEnclosureColor"]);
}

I've blogged about this and provide a sample app:

Warning: As mentioned, this is a private API. Don't use this in App Store builds.

The answer to the question is NO (as of now) and personally I don't think it's worth much, because what if the end-user uses a skin or an additional casing for his iPhone?

I'd suggest to initially ask the user "Hey, what's the color of your phone?" and then do accordingly.

Additionally, a research provided me with this information, I'm not sure if it's TRUE or if is going to help you.

The serial number is the key :)

If aabccdddeef is the serial number of the iPhone 4, ee represents the Color, (A4=black). I hope some of you here check this information with yours to see if this is true.

According to information sprinkled around the web, the color of the device is encoded in the serial number. iFixit's blog indicates that the third- and second-to-last positions hold the information: xxxxxxxxCCx For an iPhone 4, A4 indicates black. No one seems to have the code for a white iPhone 4, which is strange. One forum posting indicates that it might be DZ. Everyone seems to be just parroting everyone else's information here.

Another site, mydigitallife.com, has an article listing the color codes for various older models. In some cases, the three positions have to be read together in order to determine the color. According to this site, all iPhone 3Gs models have 3N in the color code position; 3NP indicates "Black 16GB 3Gs", and 3NQ indicates "White 16GB 3Gs". The original (2G) iPhone also uses all three positions to indicate size (there were no color options).

There are already a number of questions here on SO that will help you to get the device's serial number.

回答5:

As others have noted, no, there is no official way of getting this information. Apple clearly knows (look in iTunes when you sync), so they could make it available. Might be worth raising a Radar.

For debugging purposes I compiled a more comprehensive list of of possible deviceInfoForKey: keys.

Interesting keys to note (for this question) are DeviceRGBColor DeviceEnclosureRGBColor. The values appear to be an integer that represent the RGB value in the form 0x00rrggbb.

Here, for reference, are all the keys I found:
