Help Locating the Device ID

[kmf1960]

I have a Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 (SM-T211) which, unfortunately, is a Chinese version of the tab and as such does not allow access to Google Play. I have discovered other ways to get the apps I require via my PC but they require the device ID. Problem is, to get the device ID I have to download specific apps to my tablet which are only available on Google Play. So I need to find a way to discover the Device ID without using Google Play Store. Any ideas??? I looked at Amazon but it will not download because of my geolocation. SnapPea doesn't have the apps I need and I can not register this tab with Google Play store (because it won't connect) to allow me to download the apps on my PC. I need to be able to get the apps on my PC and transfer them, via USB, to my tablet.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi there, kmf1960! Welcome to Android Forums.

I've moved this to the Tab 3 7.0 board so fellow owners have a better chance of seeing it.

So you can side-load apps via your computer? But you need the device ID? Hmmmm... :hmmmm2: I've never run into that when I've side-loaded anything, so I can't help. But I'm sure someone else will be able to!

Just saw this. FWIW, we have the SM-T211 from Hong Kong (unlocked) and it's always been able to use the Play Store.
