Getting Cell-ID

At this topic http://community.developer.motorola.com/mtrl/board/message?board.id=JavaME_General&message.id=272 we know of two System properties that might return the current Cell-ID used by the handset: CellID or phone.cid.

I tried both on an i876 with a signed MIDlet but still could not retrieve the value.

Do I need a new entry on MIDlet-Permissions to get this?

Get Cel ID location

Oi Telmo,

Tudo bem?

To get CellID location on iDEN devices, you use one of the two location APIs -- System.properties() will not return the value.

For the Motorola OEM API, set up a connection using "mposition:delay=no".
For JSR 179, use Cost YES, POWER_USAGE_LOW and NO_REQUIREMENT to force a cell site fix.
