how do you get the phone's MCC and MNC in Android?

Question

The only way I\'ve found of retrieving MCC and MNC is by overriding an activity\'s onConfigurationChanged method, as such:

public void onConfigurationChanged

The TelephonyManager has a method to return the MCC+MNC as a String (getNetworkOperator()) which will do you what you want. You can get access it via:

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    TelephonyManager tel = (TelephonyManager) getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
    String networkOperator = tel.getNetworkOperator();

    if (!TextUtils.isEmpty(networkOperator)) {
        int mcc = Integer.parseInt(networkOperator.substring(0, 3));
        int mnc = Integer.parseInt(networkOperator.substring(3));
    }
}
