As more and more phones come with bluetooth, you can try something like this:LocalDevice localDevice = LocalDevice.getLocalDevice();String uniqueID = localDevice.getBluetoothAddress();But obviously this will only work with phones with BT.-Frank

i am facing a similar problem... looking around i found something that might help me and maybe you as well... the UUID (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UUID) there is a class called UUID (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/index.html?java/util/UUID.html)... hope this helps ;)

I don't think the Java SE API will be valid on a Java ME device :-)

so did I, but on the BluetoothDemo, that comes with the Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5 Beta, they make use of the UUID...

honestly, i havent tried it myself yet (i am more worried about some other poblems that you might hear in a while ;) ) and i also havent found it in the MID Profile overview, but if they use, it must be available, right?

Yes, it's true, what you say :)

But there is a catch - the UUID class used in the BluetoothDemo is located in the javax.bluetooth package.

Which narrows it down to devices supporting the bluetooth api. And if you've got bluetooth support, I think it's easier to use getBluetoothAddress to get a unique id :) But that might be because I haven't used UUID before!

(using UUID would probably be a more 'correct' way to do it though)
