How to show country flags according to phone numbers in android?

Question

I want to display country flags with respect to phone-numbers in my contact lists like rebtel(Screen shot shown below).

Simple solution : image name should be of country name :) now compare text with image name and display that map. — Lucifer, Mar 28 '14 at 12:39
Why is it down voted with out reason. Let me know the reason before down voting — Gangadhar Nimballi, Mar 28 '14 at 12:39

Yes, I am not worrying about down voting. But he should explain reason. Okay Thank you — Gangadhar Nimballi, Mar 28 '14 at 12:56

Parse the phone number and get the international prefix, then you can use Wikipedia: List_of_country_calling_codes to get the country. You can implement a Map with key being the international prefix and key the country name.

Here I am giving you the logic part,

You can get the ISD code and flag image from this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_country_calling_codes#Alphabetical_listing_by_country_or_region

You need to make two Array variables,

 String [] countryCode  = new String { "+91","+92", ... };
 int [] country = new int { R.drawable.91.png, R.drawable.92.png,.... };

 // Considering here 91.png is india's map

Now get the phone number from contact list , suppose you have +91987654321. So remove first + sign and compare 91 to all the resources images. When match found, put that image with the contact.

Thank you kedarnath for your answer, but jabaldonedo is very useful to me — Gangadhar Nimballi, Apr 01 '14 at 10:11
