How can I get phone serial number (IMEI)

Question

I want to get phone serial number by programming to registration configuration of my application and number of users and phones that my app has been installed on them.

Can I get that?

and can I get phone model that my app has been installed on them?

To get IMEI number use this code `TelephonyManager mngr = getSystemService(Context.Telephony_service); mngr.getDeviceId()` — techieWings, Feb 02 '13 at 10:32
Everyone .. are there some changes in android 6? can we still access the IMEI by some means? — therealprashant, Nov 04 '15 at 08:54

Context.Telephony_service ---> Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE – ChangUZ Jun 10 '13 at 08:50
u can use: TelephonyManager tManager = (TelephonyManager)myActivity.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE); String uid = tManager.getDeviceId(); – Chris Sim Aug 29 '13 at 08:59
In case of Android M and above the permissions may not be granted by the user, so we need to check the same before accessing them. Check out this answer http://stackoverflow.com/a/38782876/3811068 – Dhananjay M Nov 21 '16 at 17:32
This is deprecated in API 26, please use [`getImei()`](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/TelephonyManager.html#getimei) – solidak Nov 03 '17 at 14:56

Here is the code:-

telephonyManager = (TelephonyManager)context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);


    deviceId = telephonyManager.getDeviceId(); 
    Log.d(TAG, "getDeviceId() " + deviceId);



    phoneType = telephonyManager.getPhoneType();
    Log.d(TAG, "getPhoneType () " + phoneType);
