Hi Stan The ZoneTag API does not return lat/long for cellid information. However you can pass the city/state/zipcode information you get from ZoneTag through...
Hi, I understand, isn't that violating "Anything we can do, you can do too." So if I submit/update a cellid lat/lon via cellsubmit to the system, I won't be...
Hi Stan One of the biggest problems with getting cellid lat/long is that GPS readings are usually spread over a large area which makes it difficult to return a...
I believe GSMloc (http://gsmloc.org) has an API like that though I am not sure how updated their data is. The other option would be to pipe the zonetag output...
good idea, just pipe the zonetag into the geocoder, better then nothing. gsmloc seemed to be rather dead, too bad, they might have sold their data, very useful...

Has anyone tried this on the BlackBerry? I attempted it but the BlackBerry is telling me that my mnc is 1040 (4-digits, unacceptable) and my mcc is 784. I am...
