Does your G1 display the correct line number through settings? (Settings > About phone > Status > Phone Number)
This method used by the system seems to always be accurate, but I believe it is a private API; // Snippit from http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/packages/apps/Settings.git;a=blob_plain;f=src/com/android/settings/deviceinfo/Status.java;hb=HEAD import com.android.internal.telephony.Phone; import com.android.internal.telephony.PhoneFactory; ... Phone mPhone = PhoneFactory.getDefaultPhone(); ... setSummaryText("number", mPhone.getLine1Number()); // End snippit On Apr 10, 7:56 am, Mark Murphy <[email protected]> wrote: > Muthu Ramadoss wrote: > > Is there a way to look up the user phone number other than TelephonyManager? > > > In my G1, this returns null: > > > // get your phone number > > TelephonyManager telephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) > > getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE); > > String tel = telephonyManager.getLine1Number(); > > > Log.i("Telephone Number ==> ", tel+" <=="); > > Not only does this apparently return null in some cases (like you got), > it does not have to necessarily return a valid value. > > I tried your code, and I get a phone number that I *think* is what I was > originally assigned when I bought the G1, before my other T-Mobile > number could be ported over. > > So I am not certain this method is reliable in any case. > > > Is there any other way of getting user's own phone number? > > Hopefully yes, though I don't know of one... > > -- > Mark Murphy (a Commons > Guy)http://commonsware.com|http://twitter.com/commonsguy > > Android App Developer Books:http://commonsware.com/books.html --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
