getID() removed?? #33

Open obuw opened 3 years ago

It seems that the getID() method was quietly removed a year ago, with no explanation and no change in the documentation. The sample doesn't even work anymore!

We were using the getID() method to get android ID 's. Now it seems to me like using getIDFV() on an android device will still allow you to get the android ID, but it sure isn't mentioned anywhere in your documentation or sample.

We were also using a salt with the getID() method - something we can't do with the getIDFV() method anymore. So thousands of android users will now have to re-register their devices and lose their old data if we update to this new version.

Please add the getID() method back, or at least add a way to use a salt with the getIDFV() method the same way we were doing so with getID().

The current state of the issue tracker has me worried but I hope that you see this and at least respond and let us know what we are supposed to be doing for android devices with the current version of the ANE.
