@ohos.telephony.observer (Observer)

The observer module provides event subscription management functions. You can register or unregister an observer that listens for the following events: network status change, signal status change, call status change, cellular data connection status, uplink and downlink data flow status of cellular data services, and SIM status change.

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 6. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
