how to start application after pressing a particular number?

[Pramod P Deore]

Is it possible to start application after pressing a particular key sequence.
suppose i pressed '000' then how to start my application?

i would like to give you idea on this, you need to listen to Broadcast Intent (type here would be 'Call ') . when you find this intent is broadcasted ( write down code which opens your app) .

Thanks Piyush,

how to monitor which number is pressed on dialer?

[Piyush Patel]

Hi, Pramod . in #onReceive() method of brodcast you can get Number by following line (using intent).

final String INTENT_PHONE_NUMBER=android.intent.extra.PHONE_NUMBER;
String phoneNumber = intent.getExtras().getString(INTENT_PHONE_NUMBER);

i would like to give you idea on this, you need to listen to Broadcast Intent (type here would be 'Call ') . when you find this intent is broadcasted ( write down code which opens your app) .

I had write in manifest.xml to register broad cast receiver as

 
  <receiver android:name="MyReceiver"> 
                        <intent-filter> 
                        <action android:name="android.intent.action.ACTION_NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" /> 
                        </intent-filter> 
                </receiver> 

in MyReceiver class I write as

public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
	{
                        Intent myStarterIntent = new Intent(context,MicroERS.class); 
		        /* Set the Launch-Flag to the Intent. */ 
		        //myStarterIntent.setLaunchFlags(Intent.NEW_TASK_LAUNCH);
		        myStarterIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK); 
		
		        /* Send the Intent to the OS. */ 
		        context.startActivity(myStarterIntent); 
		        //context.startService(myStarterIntent);
      	 }

and in my MicroERS I have

public class MicroERS extends Activity
{
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        sendSMS("9960510915","This sms send by Pramod Deore");
    }
    
    public  void sendSMS(String phoneNumber, String message)
    {   
               //code for sending sms
    }
}

but when I call on any number then it will not send message. What is wrong in my code.

[Pramod P Deore]

If I change in manifest.xml as

 <receiver android:name="MyReceiver"> 
                        <intent-filter> 
                        <action android:name="android.intent.action.CAMERA_BUTTON" /> 
                        </intent-filter> 
                </receiver> 

Then message is sent when I pressed the camera key, then why

<receiver android:name="MyReceiver"> 
                        <intent-filter> 
                        		<action android:name="android.intent.action.ACTION_CALL_BUTTON" /> 
                        </intent-filter> 
         </receiver> 

this is not run when I pressed call button, Please help me

Thanks in advance

I have also tried "ACTION_NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" instead of "ACTION_CALL_BUTTON" but still it is not working. What do you think where is the problem?


Thanks in advance

hi,Pramod have you entered permission for call in AndroidManifest.xml . if not then, find appropriate permission related to CALL from http://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission.html

[Pramod P Deore]

I have write following permission in manifest.xml

   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS">
    </uses-permission>
    
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS">
    </uses-permission>
    
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS">
    </uses-permission>
    
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
