Right, there is only less than a thousand area codes in the US,
actually much less because they can't start with "0", "1", or "2" (if I
remember right).
So having a predefined mapping from GPS coordinates in the application
seems feasible.
Now getting area code coordinates for the mapping is another issue
entirely. Maybe this info is available.... somewhere?

Ah my mistake, I didn't read the last part. You could also just do
the network operation in the background and when the user is about to
make a call just use the last-known co-ordinates.

Perhaps by using GPS position and some sort of area code database you

Frankly I don't think so... but not 100% sure either. Just wanted to
see if there are any ideas out there that could solve the problem.

Hi
I'm trying to find out if the user is still within range of his own
area code. Detecting roaming doesn't solve the problem since the user
may still be in the same network with a different area code. I thought
about getting the user's coarse location to find the city he's is in
but this approach needs Internet access and might not be fast enough
(this is done as the user is making a call and needs to finish before
the call is made).
Is there any way I can do this with just the info from the cellular
network?
