I want to send some APDU commands to my SIM card inserted in an Android smart phone. Based on my researches, The options are using SEEK4Android library or Telephony library. (Is there any other option?)
The question is that how can I recognize which one of these libraries is supported by my smart phone?
Regarding this Q&A I guess I need either Open Mobile API or Telephony supported by phone. But how I can check if these are supported or not?
It is written there that , Open Mobile API is just an interface for SmartcardService, right? How I can check if my smartphone have this service or not?
I listed the services using adb:
C:\adb> adb shell service list

As you see above, there is no SmartCardService service in my smartphone. Why?
I googled Open Moblie API and the results are almost for SIM Alliance company. Why? Shouldn't I receive some Google (Because Android is for Google) documents instead of SIM Alliance documents?
My smartphone is a Sumsung Galaxy A3 with android version 5.0.2.
