Hello, I need some clarification on API docs. http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/SignalStrength.html getSignalStrength() indicates: "Get the GSM Signal Strength, valid values are (0-31, 99) as defined in TS 27.007 8.5"
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/NeighboringCellInfo.html getRSSI() indicates "received signal strength or UNKNOWN_RSSI if unknown For GSM, it is in "asu" ranging from 0 to 31 (dBm = -113 + 2*asu) 0 means "-113 dBm or less" and 31 means "-51 dBm or greater" For UMTS, it is the Level index of CPICH RSCP defined in TS 25.125" So, for 3G UMTS networks, does the SignalStrength class not return the same value as the NeighboringCellInfo class ? What are the chances that each RIL implementation is sending something different ? Has anyone see negative value for signalStrength on UMTS networks as is possible for RSCP index values ? thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
