Hi,
I need to scramble Device IDs on the Blackberry for privacy matter. When I call the function DeviceInfo.getDeviceId() I got a 9 characters number. After convert it in Hexa, I got the real PIN number for the device (or device ID depends how you call that) on 8 characters.
Like I said, for privacy matter I can't store the PIN as is in my database. So I would like to scramble the ID to a unique one, still in 8 characters. If I do MD5 or other encryption, I always got an number containing more than 8 characters.
Do you know a way to get a unique 8 characters string from the Device ID? Thank you.
