knowing the network operator name in J2ME

How do I get the network operator name in an app written with J2ME?

I am recently trying to develop an app on Nokia s40 which should have an exclusive access to a particular network operator. Is there any API or library of such?

There is nothing like that. But you can get the MNC and MCC Information from IMSI. With this information you can get the Operator name

Example 

String imsi = System.getProperty("IMSI"); // Example 234103530089555
String mcc = imsi.substring(0,3); // 234 (UK)
String mnc = imsi.substring(3,5); // 10 (O2)

you can send the information to your database to get Country, Network Operator, Network Name and status

See http://www.numberingplans.com/?page=analysis&sub=imsinr for more information on IMSI

======= Update =====

Please note that this is dependent on phone type. Below are the different formats I know... more can still be out there. 

        System.getProperty("phone.imei");
        System.getProperty("com.nokia.IMEI");
        System.getProperty("com.nokia.mid.imei");
        System.getProperty("com.sonyericsson.imei");
        System.getProperty("IMEI");
        System.getProperty("com.motorola.IMEI");
        System.getProperty("com.samsung.imei");
        System.getProperty("com.siemens.imei");
        System.getProperty("imei");
