    If I assume a Windows Phone or Windows Mobile OS, then there is no standard WEB SDK that delivers that information to the client browser. For security, the client browser has no direct access to the hardware or file system. For Windows Mobile (up to 6.5.x) you need to have a custom ActiveX installed to get the hardware information. On Windows Phone OS (7,8,10) there is no way due to the sandbox except the OEM does provide a special SDK. See also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14139390/imei-in-html-website and look for WAP security holes. – josef Jul 06 '16 at 15:20

I found that we cant access IMEI number of windows mobile using web application. But i think it would be possible if i create an application for windowsmobile and get the IMEI using that app and load the web application into the same app and pass the IMEI to the web application.
