Hi,

I would like to get the mobile number of the device on which my app is installed.

Now a mobile number can be stored in a sim card or it may be stored inside the mobile device.

Need help on :

i) detecting the number of sim cards in that device

ii) get the mobile numbers on the sim cards

iii) if it is the case that the number is stored inside the mobile device, get the mobile number from that mobile device.

Please help.

Thank you.

Add this line to the manifest editor:

B4X:
AddPermission(android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE)
Hi,

I added that line to the Manifest.

I am getting the following error :

I think that the write() method is trying to be called on the object which is null (OutputStream). check the output stream object for a null reference
