Getting Cell-ID

Versión para impresiónVersión para impresiónEnviar por e-mailEnviar por e-mail

At this topic http://community.developer.motorola.com/mtrl/board/message?board.id=Java... 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?

Hi there, To get CELL ID

Hi there,
To get CELL ID SERVER you need 2 parameters, they're: CARRIER_CHNL and COLOR_CODE. Both you can get from:
CustomerCare.getSystemStatus(CustomerCare.CARRIER_CHNL)
CustomerCare.getSystemStatus(CustomerCare.COLOR_CODE)
Also you need API permissions:
com.mot.iden.customercare.CustomerCare.UnitInfo
com.mot.iden.customercare.CustomerCare.UserInfo

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.
