I have a quick question for you |
| Scott Q. |
Thanks
- about a year ago you were posting in the forums looking for a way to
get a unique device ID without requiring read phone data permission |
| Scott Q. |
how did you resolve that? |
| Mark M. |
You can get it through android.provider.Settings.Secure |

I am trying to implement voice recognition on the emulator |
| Mark M. |
Scott Quinney: It's null on the emulator, a hex string on most phones, and a non-hex string on the ARCHOS 5 Android tablet. |
| Gaurav K. |
i have read many threads on the web about implementing this |
| Scott Q. |
it ended up giving you a unique unchanging ID regardless of MAC or any other variable? |
| Mark M. |
@Guarav: I have not attempted to use the voice recognition APIs, let alone on the emulator |
| Mark M. |
Scott Quinney: Well, it gave me something plausibly unique. I don't have an infinite number of devices to try it out... ;-) |
| Scott Q. |
sure :) -- I just want to make sure it doesn't ever change on a single device |
| Mark M. |

Quinney: Bear in mind, though, that ANDROID_ID is actually stored in a
SQLite table, so rooted phones can definitely mess with it. |
| Scott Q. |
Thats all for me -- thanks! |
| Gaurav K. |
Mark, are there any other pointers you could give me for the voice recognition on the emulator |
| Mark M. |
@Guarav
Not really. Heck, I don't even know how to fake getting microphone
input on the emulator, let alone getting voice recognition to use it. |
| Mark M. |
@Guarav: I usually use hardware when I get to stuff like that. |
| Mark M. |
@Guarav Sorry I could not be of more assistance on that specific topic. |
| Gaurav K. |
not a problem. I will be back if I have any more questions! |
