Question

Is there any API which can gives us phone is on which carrier(ex: vodafone)? home country, current country, details?

I couldn\'t find any such in Microsoft.Phone.Ne

Answer 1

You can get this via the static property DeviceNetworkInformation.CellularMobileOperator.

Remember that there may not always be one - in which case it returns null.

You can also get the device name and manufacturer or the current country via the Location services.

The nearest you'de be able to get to a "home country" would be via the regional settings.

Answer 2

In Mango, i.e. the next release, does have a static class called DeviceNetworkInformation It provides CellularMobileOperator which is the name of the carier.
