the plugin is work perfect so I just want to ask what's the difference between by phonegap itself "device.uuid" according to this https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-device/blob/c6e23d8a61793c263443794d66d40723b4d04377/doc/index.md

for example my ASUS Zenfone A500KL phonegap itself device.uuid = > 9ea488bd-..........-03361 your plugin's uuid = > 9ea488bd-..........-20328

is it... the "device.uuid" maybe changes after uninstall and reinstall but your uuid will all the same (never change...)

right ?

cordova-plugin-device uses AndroidID which has some problem (not always unique). This plugin uses a combo of android id, device id and sim id.
