    I currently use this to get the local machine name:

    @QHostInfo::localHostName();@

    Works fine on a desktop computer but on an Android device it just returns "localhost"

    I am after the Device name listed under "About device" in Settings. Which on mine is set as SamsungTab3.

    Ideally would like a solution that will work for both Android and iOS.

    Thanks, Carl

      Did you find any solution for this?
      I'm also interested in the answer.

              Hi,

              You would need to use "this":http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html through QtAndroidExtras JNI classes

              Hope it helps
