How to Get Android Device Information
Sometimes we need the user hardware information to keep track what type of user android device using our application. In the Android SDK, there have problem some classes to get the android hardware information in the application. The information that we can get are Android version, Android Model, Sim card telco, IMEI and more. Every device have different attributes and we need to know about it. In this tutorial, I will teach you how to get android device information in your new project.
Creating a New Project
1. Open Android Studio IDE in your computer.
2. Create a new project and Edit the Application name to “DeviceInfoExample”.
(Optional) You can edit the company domain or select the suitable location for current project tutorial. Then click next button to proceed.
3. Select Minimum SDK (API 15:Android 4.0.3 (IceCreamSandwich). I choose the API 15 because many android devices currently are support more than API 15. Click Next button.
4. Choose “Empty Activity” and Click Next button
5. Lastly, press finish button.
Add recyclerview dependency
I add this dependency in the build.gradle(Module:app), so i can use recyclerview to display the list of device information.
compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:25.0.1'
Add new permissions
Go to your AndroidManifest file and add 3 new permissions which are READ_PHONE_STATE, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE and ACCESS_WIFI_STATE.
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
Create a new Model Class
Right click your project name and create a new class for device model. Copy the source code in the below.
public class Device {
String key;
String value;
public Device(String key, String value) {
this.key = key;
this.value = value;
}
public String getKey() {
return key;
}
public void setKey(String key) {
this.key = key;
}
public String getValue() {
return value;
}
public void setValue(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
}
Create a new Adapter class
Adapter is the middle man of the view and model, the adapter will pass the model and display it in the activity view.
public class DeviceAdapter extends RecyclerView.Adapter<DeviceAdapter.MyViewHolder> {
private List<Device> deviceList;
public class MyViewHolder extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
public TextView key, value;
public MyViewHolder(View view) {
super(view);
key = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.txtKey);
value = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.txtValue);
}
}
public DeviceAdapter(List<Device> deviceList) {
this.deviceList = deviceList;
}
@Override
public MyViewHolder onCreateViewHolder(ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View itemView = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext())
.inflate(R.layout.row_item, parent, false);
return new MyViewHolder(itemView);
}
@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(MyViewHolder holder, int position) {
Device device = deviceList.get(position);
holder.key.setText(device.getKey());
holder.value.setText(device.getValue());
}
@Override
public int getItemCount() {
return deviceList.size();
}
}
Add a new xml layout
Create a new xml layout for the recyclerview item row. The xml name “row_item”.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="horizontal" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_margin="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<TextView
android:text="Key"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="@+id/txtKey" />
<TextView
android:text="Value"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:id="@+id/txtValue" />
</LinearLayout>
Edit activity_main.xml layout
Open your activity_main and change to the following layout.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/activity_main"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context="com.questdot.deviceinfoexample.MainActivity">
<android.support.v7.widget.RecyclerView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:id="@+id/recyclerview"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
android:layout_alignParentStart="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
Edit MainActivity.java class
Change this class source code, and it will display all the device information in your activity. Note : Android M and above should allow the permissions access for the device infomation.
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private List<Device> deviceList = new ArrayList<>();
private RecyclerView recyclerView;
private DeviceAdapter mAdapter;
private final int REQUEST_READ_PHONE_STATE =1;
@Override
