TelephonyManager  tm=(TelephonyManager)getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);

Get IMEI Number of Phone

         String IMEINumber=tm.getDeviceId();

 Get Subscriber ID

          String subscriberID=tm.getDeviceId();

  Get SIM Serial Number

            String SIMSerialNumber=tm.getSimSerialNumber();

 Get Network Country ISO Code

             String networkCountryISO=tm.getNetworkCountryIso();

 Get SIM Country ISO Code

               String SIMCountryISO=tm.getSimCountryIso();

               String voiceMailNumber=tm.getVoiceMailNumber();

            int phoneType=tm.getPhoneType();

            switch (phoneType)
            {
                    case (TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_CDMA):

                               // your code
                                   break;
                    case (TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_GSM) 

                               // your code                 
                                   break;
                    case (TelephonyManager.PHONE_TYPE_NONE):

                               // your code              
                                    break;
             }


 Find whether the Phone is in Roaming, returns true if in roaming

             boolean isRoaming=tm.isNetworkRoaming();
              if(isRoaming)
                      phoneDetails+="\nIs In Roaming : "+"YES";
              else
                     phoneDetails+="\nIs In Roaming : "+"NO";


Get the SIM state

            int SIMState=tm.getSimState();
            switch(SIMState)
            {
                    case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_ABSENT :
                        // your code
                        break;
                    case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_NETWORK_LOCKED :
                        // your code
                        break;
                    case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_PIN_REQUIRED :
                        // your code
                        break;
                    case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_PUK_REQUIRED :
                        // your code
                        break;
                    case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_READY :
                        // your code
                        break;
                    case TelephonyManager.SIM_STATE_UNKNOWN :
                        // your code

    1. If the Phone Number is Stored in SIM then only getLine1Number() will return the phone number, otherwise it returns null. For some operators phone number is stored in SIM and for some others it is not stored in SIM.
