I think sim serial Number and sim number is unique. You can try this for get sim serial number and get sim number and Don't forget to add permission in manifest file.

TelephonyManager telemamanger = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
String getSimSerialNumber = telemamanger.getSimSerialNumber();
String getSimNumber = telemamanger.getLine1Number();

And add below permission into your Androidmanifest.xml file.

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

Let me know if there is any issue.

You have everything right  but the problem is with getLine1Number   function      getLine1Number  - this method returns the phone number string for line   1  i e the MSISDN for a GSM phone  Return null if it is unavailable    this method works only for few cell phone but not all phones   So  if you need to perform operations according to the sim other than calling   then you should use getSimSerialNumber    It is always unique  valid and it always exists

You can use the TelephonyManager to do this   TelephonyManager t    TelephonyManager getSystemService TELEPHONY SERVICE    String number   t getLine1Number      Have you used    lt uses-permission android name  android permission READ PHONE STATE   gt

Update  This answer is no longer available as Whatsapp had stopped exposing the phone number as account name  kindly disregard this answer                                                                                      Its been almost 6 months and I believe I should update this with an alternative solution you might want to consider    As of today  you can rely on another big application Whatsapp  using AccountManager  Millions of devices have this application installed and if you can t get the phone number via TelephonyManager  you may give this a shot   Permission    lt uses-permission android name  android permission GET ACCOUNTS    gt    Code   AccountManager am   AccountManager get this   Account   accounts   am getAccounts     ArrayList lt String gt  googleAccounts   new ArrayList lt String gt     for  Account ac   accounts        String acname   ac name      String actype   ac type         Take your time to look at all available accounts     System out println  Accounts       acname          actype       Check actype for whatsapp account  if actype equals  com whatsapp         String phoneNumber   ac name      Of course you may not get it if user did not install Whatsapp  but its worth to try anyway  And remember you should always ask user for confirmation
