Answer 1

For the api info you can use below code.

int currentapiVersion = android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
if (currentapiVersion >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.FROYO){
   // Do something for froyo and above versions
} else{
   // do something for phones running an SDK before froyo
}

and for device maker information use below one

 String deviceName = android.os.Build.MODEL;
 String deviceMan = android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER;
