Android programming imei getDeviceID(telephonymanager)

How can I get IMEI number up to API level 19 (kitkat) in Android programming?

I have used getDeviceID(telephonyManager) but it is working only up to API 22 not below for API level 19.

Is there any other function that can be used?

You may try this:

TelephonyManager telephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
    if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(context,
            Manifest.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
        return;
    }
String IMEI_Number = telephonyManager.getDeviceId();
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
        String Imei0Id = telephonyManager.getDeviceId(0); // hear 0 is slot number
        if (null != Imei0Id && !Imei0Id.equals("000000000000000")) {
            IMEI_Number = Imei0Id;
        }
    }
