Thanks for the response. This means that applications do not have access to cell (tower) location tracking information, is this right?
What is the CONTROL_LOCATION_UPDATES permission used for? Do you have any suggestions as to how an application could track the the cell (tower) a phone is connected/closest to? Doesn't the maps application do that when users select the wireless network as the tracking vehicle? Thanks.
