How to know the mobile connection!!

[er_benji]

Hi,

Is there any way to find out whether the mobile device is connected to the 3G network or to the 2G (GSM/GPRS) network?

Thanks in advance.

No standard way to do this in Java ME, although some handsets could support some methods to achieve this.

On Series 40 phones you have a system property called

com.nokia.network.access

Returns the networking access point type. the possible values for this property are:
• pd — Packet data, for example GPRS
• csd — Circuit switched data, for example GSM CSD/HSCSD data call
• bt_pan — Bluetooth PAN network
• na — Not applicable, the implementation cannot determine the type

This does not solve your issue though.

Hartii, do you know if this is possible in native symbian?

I suppose so.

Cheers.

You should ask this on Symbian forums on the discussion boards
