Remarks

Mobile operator UWP app can have access to different states of the device. Access to the device states such as device readiness, account activation state, and device lock status are made available through the NetworkDeviceStatus enumeration. The radio state information is available through the CurrentRadioState enumeration. Note that these are two different states. For example, a radio state Off does not translate to a DeviceNotReady state and vice versa.
