Is the UDID (Unique Device Identifier ) or Android_ID transferred through a network protocol (GTP-C, Diameter, MAP, ...)?

I dont think so, however it must be transferred as part of payload or userdata or any container as it is not exposed to the network.

By the way APPLE has stopped accepting the UDID http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/unique-device-identifier-UDID

Hi, in addition to Salil's answer. I would suggest using Android_Id since you don't need any additional permission for that,

String m_androidId = Secure.getString(getContentResolver(), Secure.ANDROID_ID);

However, sometimes you might have some trouble with having unique Ids. The Id may change on factory reset, flash and rooting of devices.

And for ios you could use UUID instead of UDID.

Hope this helps!

Hi,Recently I made an app which takes photo and set to an ImageView in android.In samsung phone its orientation is 90 while camera intent opens so I used ExifInterface with four case 90/180/270/0 with normal case (0 degree) but when I compiled this method,its working perfect in all samsung device which is setting image after reverse rotate 90 to ImageView but not with others like moto/redmi/asus/karbonn I checked on each phone and there is an error that they are not getting bitmap.but when I removed ExifInterface and orientation,it started to work with all devices.but same issue with samsung device that setting image in ImageView with 90 degree orientation.
So I decided to use switch for samsung and other device so how can I know whether app is installed in samsung device or others using java?
