I agree with Estel_ it would be nice to have something like to probe all networkcells and display info about them. Sort of promiscius mode/kismet like for celltowers only.

However I am well aware theres many closed / not documented stuff on this subject, too bad Anyway thanks for this program, Ade

Also, it reminds me of this application for s60/symbian:

New version in the opening post, which deals with improving the progress bar while scanning networks.

If I am going to work on it more, refreshing to displayed information will be the focus.

P.s. some more screenshots (and info if you can read russian ) can be found here: http://linuxcenter.kz/page/cellnet-i...emo-nokia-n900

Version 0.0.1-2 now to be found in the openingspost.

This time most values displayed will be updated when they change (signal strength, operator, cell-id etc).

As soon as the display is off, changed signal receiving is turned off. This could mean a little battery saving, but also a not 100% accurate state display just after the screen is turned on again.

Going through the sources of Netmon was very helpful for me, so thanks to Spag for creating this program.

Quick reply...
Good. It's the same with the time displayed in hildon-status-bar: it doesn't update itself when the screen is off.
Best wishes.

Version 0.0.1-3 is send to extras-devel.

A short explanation on the latest change:
Choosing "Current cellular info" will show extra information if an internet connection is present. It will search and display the geographic coordinates of the celltower found on opencellid.org. These coordinates are then used to find and display the postal location of the celltower (using maps.googleapis.com data). The info should be updated if the cellid changes.

I don't know how thorough the opencellid.org databases is, but it is way to big to store locally on the phone

Hey ade,
thanks for that little nice feature.
Not yet updated, so question in advance: is it possible to select/deselect that internet access in settings?
If not, I would like to ask for this? (I do not like to spread my coordinates througout the internet without knowing)
