Rf Signal Tracker			The Ad-hoc Drive Test App! The RF Signal Tracker is an engineering application for doing impromptu hand-held drive-tests with your Android phone. You can monitor the RF and WiFi signal strength for the device as well as the serving cell locations and hotspots, describe a cell site's zone of coverage, identify changes in technology and handover points, and save and playback that data. While many of the phone stats in the app can be displayed on the phone already (go to Settings -> About -> Status to see them). The advantage of this app is you can then map, record, and analyze, and share that data in a meaningful way.	yes	no	Google Play	xx

Get Cell ID			This is an open web app, targeted at Firefox OS and tested initially on the Geeksphone Peak, that grabs the current cellular network ID (the MCC, MNC, LAC and Cell ID) and displays it. The app will also, optionally, upload this information to OpenCellID.org, Mozilla Location Services and/or a custom URL.	no	yes	Github	xx
