I am not an expert on the low level system coding but the following would be my view on this topic. B4A compiles to Java and functionality to access RIL would required at least Native Code System libries (.so). Since the Radio Interface Layer is involved it is quite low level. RIL functions also usually involve vendor code for the specific hardware. I suspect this is in the same situation at accessing AT modem commands, they exist in the phone at the RIL layer but can only be issued by one system program. For the AT modem command case this was because the AT commands were not designed for a multi-tasking environment and hence need to managed by one system program. Maybe someone more expertise will have better news for you. bluejay Upvote 0
