What do you mean with "user's country"? Static methods: - You could use the phone number which is assigned to you. The phone number starts with the country code. - Also the IMEI has information about in which country your phone was approved/registered.
Dynamic method based on your cellular connection (which you are not interested in): If you try to get information to which MNC-MCC you are connected use the TelephonyManager.getNetworkOperator() API. The MCC (mobile country code) is the information you are looking for. You can lookup which MCC code belongs to which country at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_country_codes. -- Roman Baumgaertner Sr. SW Engineer-OSDC ·T· · ·Mobile· stick together The views, opinions and statements in this email are those of the author solely in their individual capacity, and do not necessarily represent those of T-Mobile USA, Inc.
