Detecting a 4G capable device

I need to detect the 4G capability of the device.

How can I do that?

Thanks for any hints.

Solution

  • 4G is not something you can "detect", because 4G is a marketing term, not a technical term.

    You can detect if an established connection is WiMAX using ConnectivityManager. I am not aware of Android supporting any other types of connectivity that are marketed specifically as 4G.
