I'm trying to extract the ARFCN TMSI and IMSI from an android phone connected to a gsm network. There is no documentation in the Android API to do so. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to get any of this information. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

You could use TelephonyManager
to get some basic information about the telephony services including the IMSI, but TMSI and other info may be unavailable.

Thanks for that. Would it be possible to query the RIL directly to get the ARFCN and the IMSI? if so how would that work? – nwnoga Jun 12 '12 at 15:03

For an un-rooted device, it looks highly unlikely because there is no public API. You could take a look at this discussion on [android-platform Google group](http://groups.google.com/group/android-platform/browse_thread/thread/b55c8d3275ed7042/ca8ce1494ff90e45?#ca8ce1494ff90e45) – Rajesh Jun 12 '12 at 15:41
