It shouldn't be difficult to do with the reflection library, based on this solution: How to get the Android device's primary e-mail address - Stack Overflow
Note that it requires the following permission: android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS
If you need I can help you write the required Reflection code.

@Erel:

thank you for the information. Ih have now tested again. with the following java code I get a NullPointerException.

mAccountManager = AccountManager.get(mContext.getApplicationContext()); // NullPointerException
Account[] accounts = mAccountManager.getAccountsByType("com.google");
String myEMailId = accounts[0].toString();

I can not get a reference from "mContext.getApplicationContext()". When I refer to the instance with this, the get method as shown in the Eclipse error. How can I come to the application context?

 

[Erel]

Here is the code with reflection:

   Dim r As Reflector
   r.Target = r.RunStaticMethod("android.accounts.AccountManager", "get", _
      Array As Object(r.GetContext), Array As String("android.content.Context"))
   Dim accounts() As Object
   accounts = r.RunMethod2("getAccountsByType","com.google", "java.lang.String")
   For i = 0 To accounts.Length - 1
      r.Target = accounts(i)
      Dim accountName As String
      accountName = r.GetField("name")
      Log(accountName)
   Next

Runtime-Exception on Device: "java.lang.SecurityException"

@Erel:
Thank you for the code. Unfortunately, I get a "java.lang.SecurityException". Can you please check what's the error? The demo project is included in the zip. Thanks in advance.

Custom-ROM: DeFroST v6.01.a_esdaSO_v1.01.03 for HTC Desire Classic (AOSP FR83 + CyanogenMod)
Android-Vers: FroJo v 2.2.1 with Kernel: 2.6.35.7-defrost-bravotrip@trip-laptop #453

Can you please check what's the error?

He told you already in post #2

Note that it requires the following permission: android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS

 

[Amalkotey]

Works fine!

@agraham:
Thanks for the tip. I had entered the requirement of permission in the AndroidManifest and save the XML file. Unfortunately I had left open the XML Notepad and just went shopping for the weekend. When I got home, the XML editor was closed. What had happened? My little son, 5 years young, had watched what I 'm doing - could even be a game - and the entry has accidentally "uses-permission" is deleted and then also stored.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />

I 've corrected it in AndroidManifest and it now works correctly. The demo in the forum I have updated and uploaded. How would the code be changed if I want to retrieve all e-mail accounts, which the same provider? With the code below I only get the accounts of google.

accounts = r.RunMethod("getAccounts")

Hello

i try to add this line to my Manifest but give a error

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />

How to add correct to the manifest?

 

[sirjo66]

AddManifestText(<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />)

[Erel]

Note that it is better to add a permission with:

AddPermission(android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS)

 

[Derek Johnson]

The code above works fine, but I see that there is a way in Android to get a list of accounts with an intent.

Here is a link to the facility

http://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/gms/common/AccountPicker.html

Extract:

Returns an intent to an Activity that prompts the user to choose from a list of accounts. The caller will then typically start the activity by calling startActivityForResult(intent, ...);.

Could anyone clarify whether this will still need exactly the same android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS? If not some code to do this using the reflection library would be really useful.

 

[achtrade]

The code is working fine. How can I identify which one is the default email ?

 

[DonManfred]

i think you cant

I try use the code:

Dim r As Reflector
   r.Target = r.RunStaticMethod("android.accounts.AccountManager", "get", _
      Array As Object(r.GetContext), Array As String("android.content.Context"))
   Dim accounts() As Object
   accounts = r.RunMethod2("getPreviousName","com.google", "java.lang.String")
   For i = 0 To accounts.Length - 1
      r.Target = accounts(i)
      Dim accountName As String
      accountName = r.GetField("name")
      Log(accountName)
   Next

I add

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS" />

And

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.LOGIN_ACCOUNTS_CHANGED_ACTION" />

I look the link: http://developer.android.com/refere...tml#getPreviousName(android.accounts.Account)

But I cant determine the name of the device. Just e-mail.

You can help me?

Thanks!

 

[Derek Johnson]

What do you mean by "The name of the device", are you looking for the Android Device ID, or perhaps the Android User ID?

Both of these are easy to find, also you can get the primary email address, at least the first one that was used on the device.

Derek,

I want the user name email.
In the Name field , I suggest the name of the email.
If you do not want that name suggested in field may change.

Example:

I have the interface of register.

My e-mail is: alisson2016@gmail.com

In field e-mail show the e-mail "alisson2016@gmail.com"
and
in field name show the owner name "Alisson".

thanks to answer!
