  • How can I get current region's code like (i.e. US, UK) selected in Android device.

  • I don't want to get region/country code from locale because it only returns country code from language selected. Using locale:

    String cCode = Locale.getDefault().getCountry();

  • Whenever user explicitly updates region/country, it must reflect in the app. I need code to get current selected region/country of Android device.

  • What do you mean by "selected in Android device" and "selected region/country of device"? – outis Jan 05 '23 at 22:20
  • Whatever region/country currently selected in android device that I want to get. – Sumit Shukla Jan 06 '23 at 05:32

I was working on the same. This helped me:

Locale current = getResources().getConfiguration().locale;

you can use the getNetworkCountryIso method of the TelephonyManager class to get the country code of the device's current network

   TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager)getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
        String countryCode = tm.getNetworkCountryIso();

I hope this will work ..

TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager)this.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
String countryCodeValue = tm.getNetworkCountryIso();

Try this:

String countryCode = Locale.getDefault().getCountry();
String languageCode = Locale.getDefault().getLanguage();

To get the country code, you can use the getCountry() method of the Locale class as shown in the code.

To get the full region/country name, you can use the getDisplayCountry() method of the Locale class as shown in the code above. This will return the full name of the country for the device's current locale in the language of the device.

 Locale currentLocale = Locale.getDefault();
String countryCode = currentLocale.getCountry();
String regionName = currentLocale.getDisplayCountry();

For example, if the device's current locale is set to United States, the country code will be "US" and the region name will be "United States". If the device's current locale is set to France, the country code will be "FR" and the region name will be "France". So, this will return both the country name and region name.
