Retrieving GSM network information via J2ME

I would like to make a J2ME MIDlet that can get the current cell-id that the ME is in. I know that there is a proactive SIM command PROVIDE LOCAL INFORMATION specified in TS 11.14 par 6.4.15, but I don't know how to send such a command. I don't want to use Java Card because I want to avoid the hassle of card writing.
I would appreciate any help.
PS: Is there no dedicated forum here for J2ME? I couldn't find a better place to post this.

I have exactly the same problem, but I'm afraid there is no way to get cell-id from j2me, the only approximation is using messaging APIs to retrieve a meaninful multicell message...
please let me know if u find a better way.

LOCATION FINDING without using GPS using J2ME (in gsm network)

I was wondering if it is possible for me to obtain the ID (name) of the tower my phone is communicating with using J2ME (in a GSM network). I`m developing for T610. The cell info display shows the name of the tower. Is there any way i can get that text into my java program? I`ve seen Nokia apps do it, but they are C++ apps.. Is the same thing possible with J2ME?

Hi,
Yes it is possible. Try to use receive CBS messages it will give you the location name. And moreover there are some handset model specific that you have to use. I was successful in doing the same for motorola devices.
System.getProperty("IMSI")
System.getProperty("CellID")
System.getProperty("LocAreaCode")
This will give you imsi, cellid and location area code and then try to receive cbs messages that will give you the location.
It has been successfully implemented on motorola device

How do I get Apple to unlock a Verizon unlocked 4s to use domestically on a GSM network?

I have 4 iPhone 4S's in my family. The contract with Verizon ended on December 5, 2013. Early in 2014 I requested from Verizon that all 4 iPhones be unlocked, which was done and confirmed by Verizon. However, subsequently I have learned that the Verizon unlocking only allows use on international GSM networks (which of course shows that the 4S is capable of GSM usage), and I want to be able to use them domestically. Apparently, Apple maintains a kind of Black list to restrict usage of the phone to the original domestic carrier. This is in contradiction to the "Unlocking Consumer Choice and Wireless Competition Act", or S.517/Public Law 113-144, which went into effect August 1, 2014.
When I insert a active AT&T GSM SIM card into the 4S I receive the following notice:
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.

It's funny that you're totally misreading and understand that law. All it does is make it legal to 'jailbreak' your device. It doesn't force the wireless carrier to allow you to unlock the device under the normal means.
Previously, jailbreaking your device was illegal. Now, it's not. But it doesn't mean that the wireless carrier, or anyone else, has to provide assistance to you.
Show me where in that law that it states that a wireless carrier must assist you.

ALL_ARGUMENTS information via JDBC Metadata

Hi,
I require METADATA information via JDBC:
* Packages
* Procedure and Functions inside the package
* Arguments with name, datatype,precision,.....
for each package function/procedure
I only found the:
- getProcedures
- getProcedureColumns
but this look like only supporting stored procedure and function
but not package procedures and functions.
Any idea how to get this information ?
In the worst case I have to retrieve the information via all_arguments
dictionary table.
Thanks for your help!

Yes, files opened from SharePoint use a different ASFileSys and you can get info about the location from the ASPathname.
However, no SP-specific information (like metadata) is provided. You would need to use the SP-APIs yourself to do that.

Create a network location via bash

I'd like to create a network location via a bash script. I know scselect switches locations, but how do you create one?

Do you know of any references?
I found location information in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
Could I use PlistBuddy to write the information needed to describe a location? From the scutil man page, I don't know how I'd use that command, but I'm open to learning. I just need to know where to find the documentation.
Thanks for your replies.

Trouble syncing Wi-Fi network passwords via Keychain

I'm having a few issues getting my iPhone, iPad and my MacBook Pro to correctly sync Wi-Fi network passwords via iCloud Keychain – it's sporadic at the best of times.
I've had this happen in the past and sometimes resetting the keychain (as well as the saved networks on my devices) fixes the issue. However, at present, I do not wish to force a reset as I do not think it should be necessary for the functionality to work.
I recently joined a friend's Wi-Fi network at his home on my iPhone. Hours later, my iPad (a cellular model) hadn't connected to the network; I had to manually re-enter the details. Additionally, when I got home, I noticed my MacBook Pro didn't list the network in Keychain Access or the Network pref pane. All the devices run the either OS X 10.10.2 or iOS 8.1.3. iCloud Keychain is correctly setup on all three devices, and I can confirm credit card information and logins sync fine – I've just created a new login, and a fake credit card and this propogated to the other two devices. Deleting it on another correctly removed it from the original on which it was created.
Any ideas here? Can't work out why Safari data syncs, but not Wi-Fi information.

Hello Brianquery,
I do not know of a Smartprint line of products. Are you referring to the Photosmart or Officejet 5510?
You could use this link to find your printer:
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
If you locate the product you're using just type airprint in the search field. If it is not found or it is not compatible you should also check for ePrint capabilities.
I work with HP.

How to activate iphone 4 to any GSM network with MEP code

Hi,can you tell me people what's the best site to activate or unlock my iphone 4 to any GSM network, (only trusted sites)
i want to pay for unlock it, is not locked it, please help me with this issue, i would be glad with any help

This phone is locked because its been sold/supplied at a subsidized contract price which is a standard practise in many EU countries.
Now all EU Mobile operators are required to offer an unlock facility however are able to impose qualifying periods and charge if they want.
You have to contact Vodafone Spain and ask them to supply Apple with the unlock request.
That also assumes that the Vodafone Spain account is in YOUR name and that the phone is in Spain at the time.
THEY WILL KNOW from the imei number if its on their network or not!
They may also make a charge €25-30 going rate and may impose a three month minimum contract period before allowing the unlock to take place. (Revenue protection on subsidized phone rule)
The ONLY sure way to get an UNLOCKED iPhone is via Apple Retail direct and at full price.
If you can't meet those criteria you have little choice but to Sell the phone back to the Spanish market via eBay (Spain) or look away from these forums for unsupported jailbreak options.
Be aware these carry risks to the security stability and warranty of your iPhone.

Retrieve Email Group Status via Bulk API Exports

What methods are needed in order to retrieve email group status and subscription date for contacts (alongside contact information) via Bulk API 2.0?
Thank you,
SR.

After further testing you can subscribe two groups but the log message will be misleading. I created a bulk import with 10 contacts to be subscribed to two email groups. The log message indicated that 20 contacts had been subscribed to the first email group. Checking the contacts via the web interface showed that they were properly subscribed to both groups. The count was correct, just the text of the message was overly specific.

[Forum FAQ] Why can't I retrieve Free/Busy information

Free/Busy information is a feature of Microsoft Outlook that allows you to see when others are free or busy so that you can efficiently schedule meetings. You can use Microsoft Outlook to publish Free/Busy information to any server
your and your coworkers have read/write access to. However, in some cases you’ll notice that you can’t retrieve Free/Busy information correctly from Outlook. You can try the below methods to troubleshoot and get the Free/Busy information again.
Since most users who often use this feature are using Exchange, all the information in this content is only based on Exchange.
General troubleshooting methods:
Method 1: Start Outlook using the ‘/cleanfreebusy’ command line switch
Method 2: Logon OWA to see if the Free/Busy information shows correctly
Method 3: Check the user’s Permission Level when only one user’s Free/Busy information can’t be displayed
Other causes
Autodiscover has not been setup correctly
Updates
Here are the detailed steps and explanation of each method and cause.
Method 1: Start Outlook using the ‘/cleanfreebusy’ command line switch
With the ‘/cleanfreebusy’ switch, it will clear and regenerate free/busy information when Outlook starts, sometimes this process fixes the problem that Free/Busy information doesn’t display correctly, and this is always the first thing we should try when
we can’t get the Free/Busy information from Outlook.
This switch can only be used when you are able to connect to your Microsoft Exchange server.
To start Outlook using the switch, we can press Win Key +
R to start Run, type ‘outlook.exe /cleanfreebusy’ in the blank box, then press
Enter.
Please note since Outlook 2013 only uses the availability service which is connected to Autodiscover, the command line switch ‘/cleanfreebusy’ has been removed as well as the associated code so that Outlook 2013 will not recognize this
command.
Method 2: Logon OWA to see if the Free/Busy information shows correctly
If you are using Cached Exchange Mode in Outlook and having trouble getting the Free/Busy information, please logon OWA, or switch to Online Mode to see if the Free/Busy information shows correctly.
If the Free/Busy information shows correctly on OWA or in Online Mode, this problem may be caused by the Outlook Data File(.ost) corruption, which leads to the sync failure. Therefore we should exist Outlook, browse to the Data File and rename it to “.old”.
The next time Outlook starts, it will regenerate a Data File to sync and we can check if the Free/Busy information can be retrieved.
The location of the Data File can be found from File tab ->
Account Settings -> Account Settings ->
Data Files tab. (Outlook 2010 and Outlook 2013)
Or Tools menu -> Options ->
Mail Setup tab -> E-mail Account -> Account Settings window ->
Data Files tab. (Outlook 2007)
If on OWA it displays fine but doesn’t show the information correctly in neither Cached Exchange Mode nor Online Mode, it may be caused by the firewall or anti-virus settings, disable them to verify if they caused the problem.
Method 3: Check the user’s Permission Level when only one user’s Free/Busy information can’t be displayed
When a user has set his Calendar Permission to None, other people will not be able to see his Free/Busy information. When we notice that we can get most people’s Free/Busy information but fail to get one specific person’s, please consider
to check his Calendar Permission:
In that user’s Outlook, right click on his default Calendar, click Properties, select
Permissions tab.
We need to at least switch the Permission to Free/Busy time to get his Free/Busy information correctly.
Other cause 1: Autodiscover has not been setup correctly
From Outlook 2007, Outlook uses Autodiscover to get the Free/Busy information. Once Autodiscover has not been configured properly, the Free/Busy information may not display correctly. If you are also seeing issues with Out of Office assistant, we may assume
that you haven’t correctly setup Autodiscover, since these two symptoms are common when Autodiscover is not configured correctly.
To verify that, please test Outlook Autodiscover Connectivity:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123573.aspx
We can also learn Configure Exchange Services for the Autodiscover Service from:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb201695.aspx
Since Autodiscover Service is more Exchange related, we need to seek Exchange support and post the question in Exchange forum:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/home?category=exchangeserver
Other cause 2: Updates
Although Updates from Microsoft do no harm to the system for most of the time, the updates sometimes can mess things up.
Outlook 2013 November 2013 security update once became the culprit that caused some users not able to retrieve Free/Busy information from calendar scheduling. This occurs because Autodiscover fails for Exchange 2007 configurations. So in fact, this also
refers to the previous reason, Autodiscover is corrupted.
The fix for the issue above has been released:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2850061/en-us
Once you have some issues after updating and doubt it’s an update issue, you can always come to our forum to ask if there’s a recent update which causes the problem, we will be happy to support you. If a fix hasn’t been released yet, we suggest you uninstall
the suspicious ones from Control Panel -> Programs and Features ->
View installed updates to verify which caused the problem, also as a workaround.
Summary
The reason that we can’t get the correct Free/Busy information can vary. If you find it doesn’t work even after several general troubleshooting steps, please consider it’s Autodiscover related. For anyone who comes up against the issue that Free/Busy information
can’t be retrieved, please feel free to visit Outlook IT Pro Discussions from the URL:

How can we retrieve the Payload information from B2B

Hello,
We are trying to send the payload information back to the client for a failed BPEL Transaction from B2B's b2b_instancemessage view. We are enqueing messages to IP_OUT_QUEUE using BPEL. We see the payload coming correctly in the B2B Business Message Reports. But we don't see the payload coming in the b2b_instancemessage view for failed B2B transactions. How can we see the payload in b2b_instancemessage view for failed B2B transactions as well? or How can we retrieve the Payload information from B2B?
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks. - Sam.

Error in Release of Network data via BAPI_BUS2002_SET_STATUS

Hi Experts,
I have to release network data via a Custom Report Program, so I am using the STD BAPI , BAPI_BUS2002_SET_STATUS.
The functionality must be similar to the release of Network as in case of transaction CN22 or can also be done via Project Builder(Transaction CJ20N).
we r using the std BAPI as follows :
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUS2002_SET_STATUS'
    EXPORTING
      number                    = < NETWORK NUMBER >
      set_system_status = 'REL'
    IMPORTING
      return             = c_return
    TABLES
      e_result           = lt_result.
The error is Error in processing. Function was not executed . On further analysis, the Function Module CO_ZR_HEADER_RELEASE is causing the issue , not allowing network header data to be free.
The same functionality works via CN22. Please advice whether there is a need to pass further parameters or anything else.
Awaiting a response..
Regards,
Sonika

Hi,
there are some special requirements for using this BAPI. You need to call BAPI BAPI_PS_INITIALIZATION and BAPI_PS_PRECOMMIT with this BAPI. Check documentation for your BAPI. It's well documented there.
Cheers

Why does not my iPhone 5S work on LTE of Plus GSM network in Poland although my model supports LTE Band 3?

am My iPhone 5S does not support LTE of the Plus GSM network in Poland? It works in Band 3 and my model supports that band but it is not possible to use LTE although it works on my other Android phone. The network operator suggested contacting Apple.

Thank yo Tim, but actually I beg to disagree with you about that I chose to use the wrong carrier. But I have not given all details of the story:
When I was buying the iPhone at an Apple store in the US I explicitly asked whether LTE would work on my network in Poland,which uses LTE Band 3. She was very nice and checked something in the specifications and said that the model I would buy supports this band so that everything would be fine.
Unfortunately back in the country it turns out it does not work not and I expect Apple to take a stand on that. I have already filed a complaint on Apple helpline. I hope they will solve the problem...
