This article had explained about how to find cell id before that we have to known What is cell id You know that when you buy a new cell phone you can go to 'settings' and choose whether or not to display your number to someone you are calling. That is what is meant by showing caller ID. Yes or no, you can choose. Most young people decide to let each other know exactly who is calling, by displaying their caller ID number. We even add a thumbnail image to show up a picture of the caller, who is welcome to call us 95% of the time!

But what if the mobile caller is a trouble maker? What if it's a crank caller? A nuisance call or an idiotic prank caller who you don't really want to speak to? Aha. Now there's a little problem to sort out. Because - - they've probably disabled their 'show caller ID' function. Wouldn't you think?

You might see 'private number' showing when they call. 'Private number' means either they've disabled their 'show caller ID' function or they are calling from an overseas location.

Now if an abusive, nuisance or crank caller is really stupid - as let's face it, many are - then they might have been too emotional to remember to turn off 'show caller ID!' In this case we can catch them red-handed and investigate them. In return for their unwanted harassment and abuse, or bad taste prank - - we can obtain their full name, current address and history of addresses, and possibly even a Full Background Report! More than enough information to take to show at the local police station.

@Narendrachinni:<br>
Cell ID is different from Caller ID, and what you are talking about is Caller ID.

@Others:<br>
Please do not confuse between Caller ID and Cell ID. Caller ID is basically cell number, whenever you make a call your cell number is displayed on receviers cell phone. Whether to send caller ID or not, when you make a call ,is basically set by network operator. And Cell ID is the cell identity code On GSM/WCDMA networks.

The class CNetworkInfo, described in this article, is very useful to get cell ID using CTelephony API. CNetworkInfo request cell Id using asynchronous request. The callback method NetworkInfoRetrievedL() get called when asynchronous request get completed. You will get cell Id from TNetworkInfoV1 variable (i.e. aNetworkInfo.iCellId). Article is more useful to beginners.
