iOS Dev: Finding Your iPhone’s Unique Identifier (UDID)

Image
By

Hi Friends

What is the UDID?

Each iPhone or iPod Touch has a Unique Device Identifier (UDID), which is a sequence of 40 letters and numbers that is specific to your device. It’s like a serial number but much harder to guess. It will look something like this: 2b6f0cc904d137be2e1730235f5664094b831186.

Why do we need the UDID?

Your iPhone can only install programs that are approved by Apple. Applications in the App Store have been approved by Apple for general distribution, but beta customers get to try the app before it’s in the store. We register your UDID with Apple so they can approve our application especially for your iPhone.

How do I get my UDID?

You can copy/paste your UDID from iTunes or email it directly from your device by using a free app from the App Store.

Email Using the Free App (iTune)

Install and run Ad Hoc Helper. It will create an email with your UDID. Send it to nobody@example.com.

Copy/Paste from iTunes

  1. Copy the Identifier to your clipboard by choosing Edit → Copy. Edit-copy
  2. Reveal the Identifier by clicking on Serial Number:. Clicked-serial-number
  3. In the right pane, locate the information about your iPhone, including its name, capacity, software version, serial number, and phone number. Plugged-in-iphone
  4. Launch iTunes and connect your iPhone.
  5. Paste the Identifier into an email to nobody@example.com (You should be able to paste into your mail program or web browser by selecting Edit → Paste).

Thanks , Keep Coding :)

    Is it true that now it is possible to chance the mobile's IMEI number? I have heard that in black market in India, there are some shops which charges you Rs500 and chance your mobile's IMEI number. This is an alarming danger at both national and international level.

WPF-MVVM: RelayCommand Implementation

By
In WPF if we are implementing MVVM pattern then we need to play with Command rather than Events. You can use ICommand interface to create each command class. Implementation of ICommand in a class gives you CanExecute(), Execute() methods which take part in the action performed by Command.   Rather than making Command Class for each Command we can implement a generic Relay Command to get Command. Below is a RelayCommand class that we will implement.   ///   <summary>      ///  To register commands in MMVM pattern      ///   </summary>      class   RelayCommands  :  ICommand     {          readonly   Action < object > _execute;          readonly   Predicate < object > _canExecute;  ...

By
Hello Friends: In this Article/Post, I introduced the one encryption technique in Objective-C.  Encryption Component Features in all  Symmetric Encryption: AES, Blowfish, Twofish, RC2, ARC4, DES, 3DES, PBES1, PBES2. Hash Algorithms :  SHA-1 , SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, MD2, MD4, MD5, HAVAL. Hash Algorithms: RIPEMD128, RIPEMD160, RIPEMD256, RIPEMD320. Encoding: Base64, hex, quoted-printable,  URL-encoding . HMAC with any supported hash algorithm: HMAC-MD5,  HMAC-SHA1 , etc. Password-based Key Derivation Functions: PBKDF1, PBKDF2 PKCS7 -- P7S and P7M creation, decryption, verification. Public key encryption/decryption with digital certificates. Digital signature creation/verification with digital certificates. Bzip2 in-memory compression. Encrypt / decrypt strings or byte data. Return encrypted data as Base64, quoted-printable, or hex-encoded strings. Hash strings or binary data using SHA1, MD2, MD5, HAVAL, SHA384, or SHA512. Public-key encryp...

Reactive Extensions (Rx)

By
Reactive Extensions (Rx) What is Rx Rx is a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs using observable collections. Using Rx, developers represent asynchronous data streams with Observables, query asynchronous data streams using LINQ operators, and parameterize the concurrency in the asynchronous data streams using Schedulers. Simply put, Rx = Observables + LINQ + Schedulers. The Reactive Extensions (Rx) is a library for composing asynchronous and event-based programs using observable sequences and LINQ-style query operators. Whether you are authoring a traditional desktop or web-based application, you have to deal with asynchronous and event-based programming from time to time. Desktop applications have I/O operations and computationally expensive tasks that might take a long time to complete and potentially block other active threads. Furthermore, handling exceptions, cancellation, and synchronization is difficult and error-prone. Thr...
