Hello,

Is there a way to find out how far away you are from a mobile phone tower when connected using 3G etc?

I don't want a GPS type of thing, just want to display on the sceeen the distance the user is away from a mobile phone tower.

Like, 'you are 1km from the phone tower'.

Anyone have any ideas?

If you want to do that then you will need to use the GPS to determine your actual position then use location manager to find your network position then get the distance between the two points
