Activation with Content Provider App

Introduction

This activation process is typically needed since Android 10 versions on, provided that the licensing is supposed to be bound to a mobile device (rather than a user account).
This is due to the fact that previously used IMEI is since Android 10 disallowed, thus other universal unique identification of device (UUID) must be used, such as Android ID.
Only such UUID can be brought into licensing (BLS) by your licence administrator.
This activation process is facilitated through the use of SygicDeviceID Android app (referred to as Content provider app), which helps you to manage UUID of the mobile device.
Prerequisite to run this app is that Sygic Professional Navigation is already installed on the device as well.

There are 3 alternative activation procedures to be used:

  • retrieve Android ID and use it in licensing
  • generate random UUID on device and use it in licensing
  • set pre-generated UUID into device, which is used in licensing

1. Retrieve Android ID

  1. Install Sygic Professional Navigation
  2. Install and open SygicDeviceID
  3. Tap on the GET DEVICE ID button to display Sygic Android ID
  4. Insert the displayed Android ID into BLS for license pre-activation (your license administrator)
  5. Open Sygic Navigation – to verify license has been accepted
  6. Mark down the Android ID for any future license support

2. Generate random UUID

  1. Install Sygic Professional Navigation
  2. Install and open SygicDeviceID app
  3. Tap on the RANDOM ID button to generate UUID
  4. Tap on the SET NEW ALTERNATIVE ID to import the new UUID into Sygic Navigation
  5. Insert the new UUID into BLS for license pre-activation (your license administrator)
  6. Open Sygic Navigation – to verify license has been accepted
  7. Mark down the UUID for any future license support

3. Set pre-generated UUID

  1. Install Sygic Professional Navigation
  2. Install and open SygicDeviceID app
  3. Tap on the SET NEW ALTERNATIVE ID to import the provided UUID into Sygic Navigation
  4. Open Sygic Navigation – to verify license has been accepted
  5. Mark down the UUID for any future license support
