android - How to detect system information like os or device type

Question

The most important things I want to know are the device type, the OS version, if it has a hardware keyboard and maybe the screen resolution. but if you know other useful debug information please add them :)

I found this for the OS version:

string += "OS Version: " + System.getProperty("os.version");

How do I get the other properties?

Answer 1

edit: to get a complete overview of useful attributes, I combined them all together in my ErrorHandler activity (start to read at line 56): https://github.com/simon-heinen/SimpleUi/blob/master/SimpleUI/srcAndroid/simpleui/util/DeviceInformation.java#L56

Windowsize and keyboard presence were a good idea, i added some more infos for debug purpose:

String s="Debug-infos:";
s += "
 OS Version: " + System.getProperty("os.version") + "(" + android.os.Build.VERSION.INCREMENTAL + ")";
s += "
 OS API Level: " + android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT;
s += "
 Device: " + android.os.Build.DEVICE;
s += "
 Model (and Product): " + android.os.Build.MODEL + " ("+ android.os.Build.PRODUCT + ")";
