I want to get the mobile location for old mobiles (like the Nokia 3310, etc.) which do not support Java/Android applications. I am thinking of using the IMEI number. Is there any PHP/Android/Java API that takes IMEI numbers and returns a mobile location? If not, is there another way?

Why you need to get location based on IMEI number? you can use Location API for both android and Java ME applications. Look on these articles,

  • Yes I know that location api are available for android and java but i want to find location for those mobiles who don't support java/android apps as given example of nokia 3310 which can't run such applications . so can u tell if there is a way to find location for such type of old mobiles? – user1041147 Nov 11 '11 at 07:14
  • Sorry. You can't. Because you install the application on such kind of mobiles. Without installation its not possible to get. :) – bharath Nov 11 '11 at 07:16
  • I am pretty sure java cannot see the IMEI number with or without Location services – Stephen O'Connor Nov 11 '11 at 09:19
  • @Steve , You can get the [IMEI number](http://library.developer.nokia.com/index.jsp?topic=/Java_Developers_Library/GUID-A1F90B63-5F14-4829-BCA1-A23B925CF670.html) on S60 3rd Edition FP2 or higher and Series 40 3rd Edition FP1 or higher mobiles. – bharath Nov 11 '11 at 09:46
