What do you mean by "availability for getting countries mobile codes"? The number of country flags supported by each version of Android has increased from none, to ten, to over two hundred. Whether older versions of Android can display the flags even with newer fonts I can't tell you but there may be an OS issue preventing it.Nee

We need files with codes described below.

class MainActivity

package com.example.countrieswithflags;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.widget.ListView;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        String[] recourseList=this.getResources().getStringArray(R.array.CountryCodes);

        final ListView listview = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.listView);
        listview.setAdapter(new CountriesListAdapter(this, recourseList));

    }

    @Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
        // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

}

We need an adapter for list

CountriesListAdapter

package com.example.countrieswithflags;

import java.util.Locale;

import android.content.Context;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.ArrayAdapter;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class CountriesListAdapter extends ArrayAdapter<String> {
    private final Context context;
    private final String[] values;

    public CountriesListAdapter(Context context, String[] values) {
        super(context, R.layout.country_list_item, values);
        this.context = context;
        this.values = values;
    }

    @Override
    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
            .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);

        View rowView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.country_list_item, parent, false);
        TextView textView = (TextView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.txtViewCountryName);
        ImageView imageView = (ImageView) rowView.findViewById(R.id.imgViewFlag);

        String[] g=values[position].split(",");
        textView.setText(GetCountryZipCode(g[1]).trim());


        String pngName = g[1].trim().toLowerCase();
        imageView.setImageResource(context.getResources().getIdentifier("drawable/" + pngName, null, context.getPackageName()));
        return rowView;
    }

    private String GetCountryZipCode(String ssid){
        Locale loc = new Locale("", ssid);

        return loc.getDisplayCountry().trim();
    }
}

Our strings.xml will have these lines

        <item>263,ZW</item>
    </string-array>


</resources>

in the layout we must have country_list_item.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="horizontal" >


    <ImageView 
        android:id="@+id/imgViewFlag"
        android:layout_height="11px"
        android:layout_width="16px"
        android:layout_margin="5dp" />

    <TextView 
        android:id="@+id/txtViewCountryName"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content" />

</LinearLayout>

and activity_main.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
    tools:context=".MainActivity" >



    <ListView 
        android:id="@+id/listView"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginTop="15dp" >


    </ListView>

</RelativeLayout>

Also You can find images of flags with correct names (iso names of countries) from here. Or You can find them in the project(link given above).
