Carrier Services is an application for free that allows you to get information on carriers, and display it online. You can get Carrier Services for free in the Android Market, simply browse the Play Store and tap on it. The APK file contains just a dummy application, which simply returns a nil value. This application was created by Carrier IQ, a company from Australia.
Carrier Services does not have any functionality, nor does it feature free SMS or MMS. This application was created to allow users to look up information about the cell phone signal used by their network provider. Carrier IQ's website does not mention how to get the free software, instead they simply refer to "coming soon" on their site. Carrier Services will not allow users to download the Android dummy application. Carrier IQ's CEO Ryan Watson indicated that the company will release a working version of the application soon, and will offer it for free in the near future.
Carrier Services has been available for a few days, although it is unclear when it will be available to everyone. You can check out Carrier Services by searching the Android Market and clicking on "preview" next to "cell phone signal coverage." Carrier IQ says they plan on releasing the application in a few weeks, so it could be soon after the company releases their official application. If you like the idea, you should try it out today, as it is only available for a few hours right now. The preview does not make clear whether or not the application will work on AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, or other carriers. It is also unknown when the application will be available to everyone.
