I found many post regarding this but not properly given answer. My application needs IMEI number ,i did that but it is showing 000000000000000(15 zero's). it is working fine with device but i want it run properly on my emulator. i want some unique number except these zero. if any programitically solution here .post your answer's. i have to set this number instead of (15 zeros) "352373051009616"

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

String imei = telephonyManager.getDeviceId();

textDeviceID2.setText("Device id:-" +imei);

any possible solution (programitically as well as hardcoded)

That's what the emulator uses as the IMEI. If you really need or want to change it, you can open up the emulator executable with a hex editor and modify it as per http://codepainters.wordpress.com/2009/12/11/android-imei-number-and-the-emulator/

    @Adb try emulator-{arm,mips,x86}.exe. the emulator.exe does not contains anything that have to do with real emulation – reox Jan 16 '13 at 11:46

Hope this helps you. You can edit your emulator IMEI number and the instructions are very clear there.

From version 27.2.9 android emulator has some IMEI number. (But it seems that it's still not unique)

That probably fixes your problem.
