-
for physical Android devices – the device serial number as specified in Settings | About phone (or About tablet) | Status | Serial Number.
-
for Android emulators – the string in the format emulator-<port> where <port> is the emulator’s console port (5554 by default).
-
for virtual machines running Android-x86 – the IP and port of the virtual machine.
