What’s the purpose of Android Development device id, under Developer Options on ICS? I’ve googled and found nothing.
Every device has an android device ID, the only (user) way to reset this ID is to use android’s reset to factory defaults options – so this ID should remain constant unless a phone is sold/transfers ownership etc. The ID should be unique across all devices across all time.
These properties make it a very useful thing to store licences/security against.
