Getting Country name By Ip Address in android

My requirement is to get country name by device Ip. Without any WEB/API calls. I googled well but I cannot conclude anything. We have good free service MaxMind but it provides CSV format as well its very huge in file size. Do we have any suggested way.? We should not use location based service like GPS/Network Provider..?

please helps me to fix this out..

You can consider IPInfoDB API http://www.ipinfodb.com

It is fast API using data delivery network (DDN). It allows 2 connections per second by default.

You can use http://freegeoip.net/

It allows up to 10,000 queries per hour by default.

It uses json parsing you can easily implement

For ex: http://freegeoip.net/json/github.com

gives this

{"ip":"192.30.252.130","country_code":"US","country_name":"United States","region_code":"CA","region_name":"California","city":"San Francisco","zip_code":"94107","time_zone":"America/Los_Angeles","latitude":37.77,"longitude":-122.394,"metro_code":807}

with Country Code and Country Name
