What are MCC and MNC? How are they encoded?

MCC - Mobile Country Code is a decimal code number for GSM operators in one country. All GSM operators in one country have the same MCC.

MNC - Mobile Network Code is a decimal code number for one GSM operator in one country. All GSM operators in one country have different MNC.

MCC and MNC are needed in the Operator Logo message to specify which operator's logo will be replaced.

A list of all GSM operators worlwide includeng MCC and MNC information can be found in:

In Operator logo message MCC and MNC must be encoded to hexadecimal values. Encoded MCC and MNC are little endian BCD filled with F16.

The next two examples show how the encoding is done:


-Example 1:

Original values:
MCC: 262
MNC: 07

Encoded values:
MCC: 62 F2
MNC: 70


-Example 2:

Original values
MCC: 240
MNC: 01

Encoded values
MCC: 42 F0
MNC: 10
