Sorry for bringing up this topic from the past, but I was wondering if the OP or anyone else knows the cause or a solution to this problem
I'm to get the LAC:CID on the G1 (android 1.6) and it’s always returning larger than allowed (ffff is max allowed) numbers (or -1). I get the exact same numbers whether I use getCid() from GsmCellLocation or use onCellLocationChanged() from PhoneStateListener http://developer.android.com/intl/de/reference/android/telephony/gsm/GsmCellLocation.html#getCid%28%29 http://developer.android.com/intl/de/reference/android/telephony/PhoneStateListener.html#onCellLocationChanged%28android.telephony.CellLocation%29 Any guidance would be appreciated On Mar 26 2009, 9:17 am, Richard Schilling <[email protected]> wrote: > For the most part, when we call GsmCellLocation.getCid, we get normal > looking numbers: > > public synchronized static int GetCellId() { > > GsmCellLocation location = (GsmCellLocation) phoneMan.getCellLocation > (); > return (location.getCid()); > > } > > This method often times returns small numbers under 10000 which seem > in line with other phones: > -1 (unknown, but expected per the documentation > 3151 > 4252 > 8251 > > etc ... all these look fine.
