hi,

it is not possible to know the SIM card number in java nor in symbian c++

The api access is not provided for conventional developers ..

You can try to get System property :

com.nokia.mid.msisdn

The MSISDN (Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Number) stored in the SIM card.

Newer S60 3rd Edition FP 2 devices and devices with Java Runtime 1.3

Series 40 6th Edition

This property is available only in the manufacturer or operator domain.

Returns all MSISDN numbers stored in the SIM separated by blank (Unicode U+0020). One MSISDN number is usually maximized to 15 decimal digits.

Note: SIM cards do not necessarily contain a single MSISDN. If none are present, com.nokia.mid.msisdn returns null.


Its still not possible for normal developer to get it and in most of the cases its not present on the SIM card.

And... the SIM card serial number is called "imsi" (International Mobile Subscriber Identifier). Search for it ("imsi") in the library and discussion boards to learn more about the conditions on when you can retrieve/read it:

While you're at it, search also for "msisdn" or "own number" for more on that topic.

Not everyone is saying that. First of all, as you've been instructed: use the search function of this site (you can limit your search to cover only the Symbian C++ related forums), then post Symbian C++ questions on Symbian C++ forums, and not Java forums (like this one). Another keyword for you to use in your search: CTelephony
