[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/apache/cordova-plugin-device.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/apache/cordova-plugin-device)
-Plugin documentation: [doc/index.md](doc/index.md)
+This plugin defines a global `device` object, which describes the device's hardware and software.
+Although the object is in the global scope, it is not available until after the `deviceready` event.
+
+ document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
+ function onDeviceReady() {
+ console.log(device.cordova);
+ }
+
+## Installation
+
+ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-device
+
+## Properties
+
+- device.cordova
+- device.model
+- device.platform
+- device.uuid
+- device.version
+
+## device.cordova
+
+Get the version of Cordova running on the device.
+
+### Supported Platforms
+
+- Amazon Fire OS
+- Android
+- BlackBerry 10
+- Browser
+- Firefox OS
+- iOS
+- Tizen
+- Windows Phone 7 and 8
+- Windows 8
+
+## device.model
+
+The `device.model` returns the name of the device's model or
+product. The value is set by the device manufacturer and may be
+different across versions of the same product.
+
+### Supported Platforms
+
+- Android
+- BlackBerry 10
+- Browser
+- iOS
+- Tizen
+- Windows Phone 7 and 8
+- Windows 8
+
+### Quick Example
+
+ // Android: Nexus One returns "Passion" (Nexus One code name)
+ // Motorola Droid returns "voles"
+ // BlackBerry: Torch 9800 returns "9800"
+ // Browser: Google Chrome returns "Chrome"
+ // Safari returns "Safari"
+ // iOS: for the iPad Mini, returns iPad2,5; iPhone 5 is iPhone 5,1. See http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Models
+ //
+ var model = device.model;
+
+### Android Quirks
+
+- Gets the [product name](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html#PRODUCT) instead of the [model name](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html#MODEL), which is often the production code name. For example, the Nexus One returns `Passion`, and Motorola Droid returns `voles`.
+
+### Tizen Quirks
+
+- Returns the device model assigned by the vendor, for example, `TIZEN`
+
+### Windows Phone 7 and 8 Quirks
+
+- Returns the device model specified by the manufacturer. For example, the Samsung Focus returns `SGH-i917`.
+
+## device.platform
+
+Get the device's operating system name.
+
+ var string = device.platform;
+
+### Supported Platforms
+
+- Android
+- BlackBerry 10
+- Browser4
+- Firefox OS
+- iOS
+- Tizen
+- Windows Phone 7 and 8
+- Windows 8
+
+### Quick Example
+
+ // Depending on the device, a few examples are:
+ // - "Android"
+ // - "BlackBerry 10"
+ // - Browser: returns "MacIntel" on Mac
+ // returns "Win32" on Windows
+ // - "iOS"
+ // - "WinCE"
+ // - "Tizen"
+ var devicePlatform = device.platform;
+
+### Windows Phone 7 Quirks
+
+Windows Phone 7 devices report the platform as `WinCE`.
+
+### Windows Phone 8 Quirks
+
+Windows Phone 8 devices report the platform as `Win32NT`.
+
+## device.uuid
+
+Get the device's Universally Unique Identifier ([UUID](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_Unique_Identifier)).
+
+ var string = device.uuid;
+
+### Description
+
+The details of how a UUID is generated are determined by the device manufacturer and are specific to the device's platform or model.
+
+### Supported Platforms
+
+- Android
+- BlackBerry 10
+- iOS
+- Tizen
+- Windows Phone 7 and 8
+- Windows 8
+
+### Quick Example
+
+ // Android: Returns a random 64-bit integer (as a string, again!)
+ // The integer is generated on the device's first boot
+ //
+ // BlackBerry: Returns the PIN number of the device
+ // This is a nine-digit unique integer (as a string, though!)
+ //
+ // iPhone: (Paraphrased from the UIDevice Class documentation)
+ // Returns a string of hash values created from multiple hardware identifies.
+ // It is guaranteed to be unique for every device and can't be tied
+ // to the user account.
+ // Windows Phone 7 : Returns a hash of device+current user,
+ // if the user is not defined, a guid is generated and will persist until the app is uninstalled
+ // Tizen: returns the device IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity or IMEI is a number
+ // unique to every GSM and UMTS mobile phone.
+ var deviceID = device.uuid;
+
+### iOS Quirk
+
+The `uuid` on iOS is not unique to a device, but varies for each
+application, for each installation. It changes if you delete and
+re-install the app, and possibly also when you upgrade iOS, or even
+upgrade the app per version (apparent in iOS 5.1). The `uuid` is not
+a reliable value.
+
+### Windows Phone 7 and 8 Quirks
+
+The `uuid` for Windows Phone 7 requires the permission
+`ID_CAP_IDENTITY_DEVICE`. Microsoft will likely deprecate this
+property soon. If the capability is not available, the application
+generates a persistent guid that is maintained for the duration of the
+application's installation on the device.
+
+## device.version
+
+Get the operating system version.
+
+ var string = device.version;
+
+### Supported Platforms
+
+- Android 2.1+
+- BlackBerry 10
+- Browser
+- iOS
+- Tizen
+- Windows Phone 7 and 8
+- Windows 8
+
+### Quick Example
+
+ // Android: Froyo OS would return "2.2"
+ // Eclair OS would return "2.1", "2.0.1", or "2.0"
+ // Version can also return update level "2.1-update1"
+ //
+ // BlackBerry: Torch 9800 using OS 6.0 would return "6.0.0.600"
+ //
+ // Browser: Returns version number for the browser
+ //
+ // iPhone: iOS 3.2 returns "3.2"
+ //
+ // Windows Phone 7: returns current OS version number, ex. on Mango returns 7.10.7720
+ // Tizen: returns "TIZEN_20120425_2"
+ var deviceVersion = device.version;
+
