Programmatically retrieve IMEI number for dual SIM in android

Question

For single SIM following code works:

TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager)getSystemService(TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
String imei= tm.getDeviceId();

For dual SIM I tried code on following link:

Android : Check whether the phone is dual SIM

But it didnt work for me.

Let me know if any other solutions possible.

which API version are you targetting? I too am developing a dual-SIM app that needs to work very old phones and new alike. — Tomachi, Apr 25 '20 at 11:49

Try using getDeviceId(int slotId) added in API level 23.

Returns the unique device ID of a subscription, for example, the IMEI for GSM and the MEID for CDMA phones. Return null if device ID is not available.

Requires Permission: READ_PHONE_STATE

We can check whether phone single or dual sim by using Android API and IMEI for each sim Card

TelephonyManager manager = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
Log.i("OmSai ", "Single or Dula Sim "+manager.getPhoneCount());
Log.i("OmSai ", "Defualt device ID "+manager.getDeviceId());
Log.i("OmSai ", "Single 1 "+manager.getDeviceId(0));
Log.i("OmSai ", "Single 2 "+manager.getDeviceId(1));

        Class<?>[] parameter = new Class[1];

        TelephonyManager manager = (TelephonyManager) this.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
        String first = (String) getFirstMethod.invoke(telephony, obParameter);
        Log.d("SimData", "first :" + first);

    } catch (Exception e) {

    }

try using this,this should help getting both device id on android lollipop

Yes we can get both IMEI numbers Using this below code

TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager)getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
String imeiNumber1 = tm.getDeviceId(1); //(API level 23)   
String imeiNumber2 = tm.getDeviceId(2);

TelephonyManager first = (TelephonyManager) getFirstMethod.invoke(null, obParameter);

Log.d(TAG, "Device Id: " + first.getDeviceId() + ", device status: " + first.getSimState() + ", operator: " + first.getNetworkOperator() + "/" + first.getNetworkOperatorName());

obParameter[0] = 1;

AFAIK it is not possible. The java reflection, you used could work for some devices but not all. However there might be some manufacturer specific API's that allows for this.

Quoting Commonsware,

Android does not support multiple SIMs, at least from the SDK. Device manufacturers who have created multi-SIM devices are doing so on their own. You are welcome to contact your device manufacturer and see if they have an SDK add-on or something that allows you to access the second SIM.

Yes Android currently not supported Dual Sim. But you can retrive all possible details by using Java reflection.

I research for fetching dual SIMs details and it works on bellowed devices

You can use this method to get both imei. Sorry for inconvenience. I was in a hurry.

public static void samsungTwoSims(Context context) {
    TelephonyManager telephony = (TelephonyManager)context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);

try{

        Class<?> telephonyClass = Class.forName(telephony.getClass().getName());

        Class<?>[] parameter = new Class[1];
        parameter[0] = int.class;
        Method getFirstMethod = telephonyClass.getMethod("getDefault", parameter);

        Log.d(TAG, getFirstMethod.toString());

        Object[] obParameter = new Object[1];
        obParameter[0] = 0;
        TelephonyManager first = (TelephonyManager) getFirstMethod.invoke(null, obParameter);

        Log.d(TAG, "Device Id: " + first.getDeviceId() + ", device status: " + first.getSimState() + ", operator: " + first.getNetworkOperator() + "/" + first.getNetworkOperatorName());

        obParameter[0] = 1;
        TelephonyManager second = (TelephonyManager) getFirstMethod.invoke(null, obParameter);

        Log.d(TAG, "Device Id: " + second.getDeviceId() + ", device status: " + second.getSimState()+ ", operator: " + second.getNetworkOperator() + "/" + second.getNetworkOperatorName());
    } catch (Exception e) {

You can IMEI in Android O or above.

Set<String> deviceIdList = new HashSet<>();
TelephonyManager telephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
int phoneCount = telephonyManager.getPhoneCount();
for (int i = 0; i < phoneCount; i++) {
   deviceIdList.add(telephonyManager.getImei(i));
}

Steps: 1 > You must have READ_PHONE_STATE Permission enabled

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />

2 > For Android SDK v23<= get SIM 1 & SIM 2 IMEI by this:

TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager)getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
    Log.e("IMEI---1:", tm.getDeviceId(0) );

Try following code to get IMEI Number for an Android Device:

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

    btn_imei.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @RequiresApi(api = Build.VERSION_CODES.O)
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(MainActivity.this, Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) 
            {
                ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(MainActivity.this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE}, REQUEST_CODE);
                return;
            }

            StringBuilder stringBuilder = new StringBuilder();
            if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
                for (int i = 0; i < telephonyManager.getPhoneCount(); i++) {
                    stringBuilder.append(telephonyManager.getImei(i));
                    stringBuilder.append("\n");
                }
            }
            txt_imei.setText(stringBuilder.toString());
        }
    });

TelephonyInfo telephonyInfo = TelephonyInfo.getInstance(this);

    String imeiSIM1 = telephonyInfo.getImsiSIM1();
    String imeiSIM2 = telephonyInfo.getImsiSIM2();

    boolean isSIM1Ready = telephonyInfo.isSIM1Ready();
    boolean isSIM2Ready = telephonyInfo.isSIM2Ready();

    boolean isDualSIM = telephonyInfo.isDualSIM();

    TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.txt_imei);
    tv.setText(" IME1 : " + imeiSIM1 + "\n" +
            " IME2 : " + imeiSIM2 + "\n" +
            " IS DUAL SIM : " + isDualSIM + "\n" +
            " IS SIM1 READY : " + isSIM1Ready + "\n" +
            " IS SIM2 READY : " + isSIM2Ready + "\n");

}

Your answer needs [formatting](https://stackoverflow.com/editing-help) and it seems to be missing both part of the code and an explanation. — David Buck, Sep 01 '20 at 07:43
