iOS Question Retrieving Carrier Name from iPhone programmatically

[ykucuk]

Hello,

How can i get Carrier Name from iPhone programmatically ?

 

[Computersmith64]

There is a framework available (CoreTelephony) that provides that information, however I don't think it has been implemented in B4i. There is an example here -> How to read missed calls or check phone state? on how to use CoreTelephony with inline Java, so that might point you in the right direction.

Find an Objective C or Swift code and I will help you port it.

for swift

import CoreTelephony

static var carrierName:String? {
   let networkInfo = CTTelephonyNetworkInfo()
   let carrier = networkInfo.subscriberCellularProvider
   return carrier?.carrierName
}

Untested code:

Dim netinfo As NativeObject
netinfo = netinfo.Initialize("CTTelephonyNetworkInfo").RunMethod("new", null)
Dim carrier As nativeObject = netinfo.RunMethod("subscriberCellularProvider", Null)
Log(carrier.RunMethod("carrierName", Null).AsString)

Untested code:

Dim netinfo As NativeObject
netinfo = netinfo.Initialize("CTTelephonyNetworkInfo").RunMethod("new", null)
Dim carrier As nativeObject = netinfo.RunMethod("subscriberCellularProvider", Null)
Log(carrier.RunMethod("carrierName", Null).AsString)

it works
