I believe the NETWORK_PROVIDER does require Internet access, because it sends details about cell towers (and possibly wifi hotspots) within range to a server and gets an approximate lat/long in return. In other words, Android does not contain internally a complete database of the locations of all of the cell towers in the world.
I think it should work with any Internet connection - e.g. 3G or GPRS should work as well as WiFi --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
