Which SIM slot is checked when telephonyMananger.getSimSerialNumber() is called in a dual sim phone?
For API level >= 22
It can be obtained using the
SubscriptionManager class (added in API level 22, https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/SubscriptionManager)
SubscriptionManager sManager = (SubscriptionManager) getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SUBSCRIPTION_SERVICE)
SubscriptionInfo infoSim1 = sManager.getActiveSubscriptionInfoForSimSlotIndex(0);
SubscriptionInfo infoSim2 = sManager.getActiveSubscriptionInfoForSimSlotIndex(1);
For API level <= 21
For single SIM: TelephonyManager.getSimSerialNumber()
For dual sim: It depends on the manufacturer of the phone.
There is no defined way for getting Sim Serial Number
for dual sim below API level 21.
How to get both phone number from dual SIM device?
If the phone number is indeed stored in the SIM card, then you can use subscriptionmanager API (https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/SubscriptionManager.html) to get the details on each subscription i.e for each SIM card.
You can call
- getActiveSubscriptionInfoList() which will return list. In your case if there are 2 SIM cards inserted, it should return 2 subscription infos
- In subscription info, you can call getNumber() API (https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/SubscriptionInfo.html#getNumber()) to get the number
Please note that for this to work, the SIM card should have the phone number in it.
Please note this API is only supported from API level 22
Adding example code :
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.LOLLIPOP_MR1) {
SubscriptionManager subscriptionManager = SubscriptionManager.from(getApplicationContext());
List<SubscriptionInfo> subsInfoList = subscriptionManager.getActiveSubscriptionInfoList();
Log.d("Test", "Current list = " + subsInfoList);
for (SubscriptionInfo subscriptionInfo : subsInfoList) {
String number = subscriptionInfo.getNumber();
Log.d("Test", " Number is " + number);
}
}
Dual SIM card Android
The current Android platform does not have support for multiple SIMs. A device with such support has been customized for this, so you will need to get information from that device's manufacturer for any facilities they have to interact with it.
Android : Check whether the phone is dual SIM
Update 23 March'15 :
Official multiple SIM API is available now from Android 5.1 onwards
Other possible option :
You can use Java reflection to get both IMEI numbers.
Using these IMEI numbers you can check whether the phone is a DUAL SIM or not.
Try following activity :
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
TelephonyInfo telephonyInfo = TelephonyInfo.getInstance(this);
String imeiSIM1 = telephonyInfo.getImsiSIM1();
String imeiSIM2 = telephonyInfo.getImsiSIM2();
boolean isSIM1Ready = telephonyInfo.isSIM1Ready();
boolean isSIM2Ready = telephonyInfo.isSIM2Ready();
boolean isDualSIM = telephonyInfo.isDualSIM();
TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv);
tv.setText(" IME1 : " + imeiSIM1 + "\n" +
" IME2 : " + imeiSIM2 + "\n" +
" IS DUAL SIM : " + isDualSIM + "\n" +
" IS SIM1 READY : " + isSIM1Ready + "\n" +
" IS SIM2 READY : " + isSIM2Ready + "\n");
}
}
And here is TelephonyInfo.java
:
import java.lang.reflect.Method;
import android.content.Context;
import android.telephony.TelephonyManager;
public final class TelephonyInfo {
private static TelephonyInfo telephonyInfo;
private String imeiSIM1;
private String imeiSIM2;
private boolean isSIM1Ready;
private boolean isSIM2Ready;
public String getImsiSIM1() {
return imeiSIM1;
}
/*public static void setImsiSIM1(String imeiSIM1) {
TelephonyInfo.imeiSIM1 = imeiSIM1;
}*/
public String getImsiSIM2() {
return imeiSIM2;
}
/*public static void setImsiSIM2(String imeiSIM2) {
TelephonyInfo.imeiSIM2 = imeiSIM2;
}*/
public boolean isSIM1Ready() {
return isSIM1Ready;
}
/*public static void setSIM1Ready(boolean isSIM1Ready) {
TelephonyInfo.isSIM1Ready = isSIM1Ready;
}*/
public boolean isSIM2Ready() {
return isSIM2Ready;
}
/*public static void setSIM2Ready(boolean isSIM2Ready) {
TelephonyInfo.isSIM2Ready = isSIM2Ready;
}*/
public boolean isDualSIM() {
return imeiSIM2 != null;
}
private TelephonyInfo() {
}
public static TelephonyInfo getInstance(Context context){
if(telephonyInfo == null) {
telephonyInfo = new TelephonyInfo();
TelephonyManager telephonyManager = ((TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE));
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM1 = telephonyManager.getDeviceId();;
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM2 = null;
try {
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM1 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getDeviceIdGemini", 0);
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM2 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getDeviceIdGemini", 1);
} catch (GeminiMethodNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
try {
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM1 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getDeviceId", 0);
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM2 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getDeviceId", 1);
} catch (GeminiMethodNotFoundException e1) {
//Call here for next manufacturer's predicted method name if you wish
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}
telephonyInfo.isSIM1Ready = telephonyManager.getSimState() == TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_READY;
telephonyInfo.isSIM2Ready = false;
try {

e1.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
return telephonyInfo;
}
private static String getDeviceIdBySlot(Context context, String predictedMethodName, int slotID) throws GeminiMethodNotFoundException {
String imei = null;
TelephonyManager telephony = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
try{
Class<?> telephonyClass = Class.forName(telephony.getClass().getName());
Class<?>[] parameter = new Class[1];
parameter[0] = int.class;
Method getSimID = telephonyClass.getMethod(predictedMethodName, parameter);
Object[] obParameter = new Object[1];
obParameter[0] = slotID;
Object ob_phone = getSimID.invoke(telephony, obParameter);
if(ob_phone != null){
imei = ob_phone.toString();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
throw new GeminiMethodNotFoundException(predictedMethodName);
}
return imei;
}
private static boolean getSIMStateBySlot(Context context, String predictedMethodName, int slotID) throws GeminiMethodNotFoundException {
boolean isReady = false;
TelephonyManager telephony = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
try{
Class<?> telephonyClass = Class.forName(telephony.getClass().getName());
Class<?>[] parameter = new Class[1];
parameter[0] = int.class;
Method getSimStateGemini = telephonyClass.getMethod(predictedMethodName, parameter);
Object[] obParameter = new Object[1];
obParameter[0] = slotID;
Object ob_phone = getSimStateGemini.invoke(telephony, obParameter);
if(ob_phone != null){
int simState = Integer.parseInt(ob_phone.toString());
if(simState == TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_READY){
isReady = true;
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
throw new GeminiMethodNotFoundException(predictedMethodName);
}
return isReady;
}
private static class GeminiMethodNotFoundException extends Exception {
private static final long serialVersionUID = -996812356902545308L;
public GeminiMethodNotFoundException(String info) {
super(info);
}
}
}
Edit :
Getting access of methods like "getDeviceIdGemini" for other SIM slot's detail has prediction that method exist.
If that method's name doesn't match with one given by device manufacturer than it will not work. You have to find corresponding method name for those devices.
Finding method names for other manufacturers can be done using Java reflection as follows :
public static void printTelephonyManagerMethodNamesForThisDevice(Context context) {
TelephonyManager telephony = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
Class<?> telephonyClass;
try {
telephonyClass = Class.forName(telephony.getClass().getName());
Method[] methods = telephonyClass.getMethods();
for (int idx = 0; idx < methods.length; idx++) {
System.out.println("\n" + methods[idx] + " declared by " + methods[idx].getDeclaringClass());
}
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
EDIT :
As Seetha pointed out in her comment :
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM1 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getDeviceIdDs", 0);
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM2 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getDeviceIdDs", 1);
It is working for her. She was successful in getting two IMEI numbers for both the SIM in Samsung Duos device.
Add <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
EDIT 2 :
The method used for retrieving data is for Lenovo A319 and other phones by that manufacture (Credit Maher Abuthraa):
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM1 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getSimSerialNumberGemini", 0);
telephonyInfo.imeiSIM2 = getDeviceIdBySlot(context, "getSimSerialNumberGemini", 1);
How can we check multiple sim in Android phones
Use TelephonyManager
You would first start by querying the SimState for each individual sim slot by using getSimState(int slotIndex) ie:
int simStateMain = telMgr.getSimState(0);
int simStateSecond = telMgr.getSimState(1);
Then once you figure out which SimCard you want your code would look somewhat like this:
TelephonyManager telMgr = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
int simState = telMgr.getSimState();
switch (simState) {
case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_ABSENT:
// do something
break;
case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_NETWORK_LOCKED:
// do something
break;
case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_PIN_REQUIRED:
// do something
break;
case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_PUK_REQUIRED:
// do something
break;
case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_READY:
// do something
break;
case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_UNKNOWN:
// do something
break;
}
Make sure you're dealing with a GSM phone first so you can actually get at the SIM card though. Note: There are many ways to do this. Could even use a boolean.
