[android-developers] Re: android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER

I'm currently using ANDROID_ID but it looks like I need to switch it up to a custom one because of the Archos 5.   I will probably be using a concatenation of  a custom 3 letter designating the app, android.os.Build.PRODUCT and the ANDROID_ID.   My assumption is that the ANDROID_ID will be unique for any like product.  If it isn't then the OHA really needs to start cracking down on manufacturers and running the ID's like they do for MAC address's on network cards.

Ok I see IMEI is not valid as a device identifier for Android
devices.  What do you guys suggest to use instead of the IMEI to
identify the device? Is there any best practice in Android environment
to do that?

I'm asking because I also working on that part of my application right
now.

Thanks for your help.
