country

When I first install whatsapp on iphone, when I open it, the first screen already knows my sim cards location and shows the country code. How does whatsapp know this ? As apple rejects all the apps that use sim card info programmatically. in your .h file you need to: #import <CoreTelephony/CTCarrier.h> #import <CoreTelephony/CTTelephonyNetworkInfo.h> And this function will get the country code: -(NSString*)getCountryDialingCode { NSDictionary *dialingCodes = [[NSDictionary alloc]initWithObjectsAndKeys: @"972", @"IL", @"93", @"AF", @"355", @"AL", @"213", @"DZ", @"1", @"AS", @"376", @"AD", @"244

I have an app that imports contacts from Google Contacts. The app worked fine, until this morning when we changed the API 'owner'. It was set up under my personal account for development purposes. After setting up everything, Google started responding with this: Array ( [error] => Array ( [errors] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [domain] => global [reason] => countryBlocked [message] => This service is not available from your country ) ) [code] => 403 [message] => This service is not available from your country ) ) This is the line that generates the error, and the functions declaration (they are in

I have a version of an app that is currently available in the mexico store, but I would like to do a colombia version. The the data used and the UI will change somewhat. Can I create a different binary to upload to a different store and still keep the same app name? I found the question above somewhere with no answer, just editted it a little. I found that question because it is my question now. Can you give me any ideas or advice? Thanks for anyhelp or advice that you can give. You can't upload a different version for each country, but you could detect the users location and then change the

I need to show different links for US and non-US visitors to my site. This is for convenience only, so I am not looking for a super-high degree of accuracy, and security or spoofing are not a concern. I know there are geotargeting services and lists, but this seems like overkill since I only need to determine (roughly) if the person is in the US or not. I was thinking about using JavaScript to get the user's timezone, but this appears to only give the offset, so users in Canada, Mexico, and South America would have the same value as people in the US. Are there any other bits of information

We've got a requirement in a couple of our systems to detect a user's country based on their IP address. We'd prefer to use a database rather than a Web Service (to prevent issues with downtime/network access to an externally hosted service) so I'm looking for recommendations, anyone got any good or bad stories of the various IP to Country databases? What I've found from google: Paid Maxmind - $50, then $12 a month, site license IP2Location - $50 a year, single server software77 (Donationware) Free Maxmind Geolite ip2nation Any information on how the free ones compare to the paid ones would be

I've read a lot about this part and what I found is to write the geocode and search for tweets for example https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?geocode=37.781157,-122.398720,1mi&count=10 according to what i found in twitter website Returns tweets by users located within a given radius of the given latitude/longitude. A maximum of 1,000 distinct "sub-regions" will be considered when using the radius modifier. Example Values: 37.781157,-122.398720,1mi The question!, how can we define or draw the latitude and longitude ? I've tried google map but I only get a point then i can add the

I am looking for a way to select and display a list of countries, preferably with flags. Any suggestions? I started of by trying this jQuery plugin http://www.graphicpush.com/website-language-dropdown-with-jquery , but as the list of countries I have is quite large it turned out that the performance was really bad (too many http requests to images). Also the list is bulky when it is larger than 50 elements. Note from the future: jQuery UI autocomplete now supports custom rendering by default, see http://api.jqueryui.com/autocomplete/#method-_renderItem . It's pretty easy. Things you need:
