Change the device ID on an Android emulator?

Issue

Is there a way to change the IMEI that will be returned by the emulator's TelephonyManager? Also, is there a way to change the ID returned by Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID?

I use these IDs to distinguish my users from one another when storing their data on the server side. It would be nice if my QA team could change these IDs so that they are not all using the same set of user data.

Solution

I haven't tried it, but this page outlines a method that involves manually modifying the emaultor.exe file. It seems pretty straightforward, though you'd have to create a separate emulator for each QA team member.
