Just a quick background I'm Running CM7 on a rooted Nexus one.
I am trying to detect when an outgoing call is actually connected: has stopped ringing and the person you are calling has answered. Looking through the forums this seems to be a tough and perhaps unanswered question. I'd really appreciate any insight into this.
In my searching the best I could find was in:
Android : How to get a state that the outgoing call has been answered?
#PattabiRaman said: "instead of detecting the outgoing call connection state, it is easy to get the duration of the last dialed call."
Does he mean that one should get the duration of the last dialed call as the call is in progress? And when that duration goes over 0 then you know?
The class com.android.internal.telephony.CallManager should have information about when the call actually is answered. It has a public static method getInstance() which returns the CallManager instance, and a public method getActiveFgCallState() which returns the current call state as a Call.State enum.
So in theory something like this might work:
Method getFgState = null;
Object cm = null;
try {
Class cmDesc = Class.forName("com.android.internal.telephony.CallManager");
Method getCM = cmDesc.getMethod("getInstance");
getFgState = cmDesc.getMethod("getActiveFgCallState");
cm = getCM.invoke(null);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
And then repeatedly poll the state:
Object state = getFgState.invoke(cm);
if (state.toString().equals("IDLE")) {
...
} else if (state.toString().equals("ACTIVE")) {
// If the previous state wasn't "ACTIVE" then the
// call has been established.
}
I haven't verified that this actually works. And even if it does you'll have to keep in mind that the API could change, since this isn't something that app developers are supposed to rely on.
I have looked into the code.
It will always give null unless you instantiate a Phone object and set it as default Phone.
But instantiating it needs some System permissions allowed only to system aps.
By using this method:
com.android.internal.telephony.PhoneFactory# public static void makeDefaultPhones(Context context) {
http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android/4.0.4_r1.2/com/android/internal/telephony/PhoneFactory.java

I want to know whether the call is disconnected or continued, and based on that I want to perform an action in the application.
Can anyone tell me how to check if the phone call is disconnected or not?
along with that I also want to know if it is received by the end-user or not
any kind of help will be appreciated.
thank you
I think you should take the steps I list below:
One line of code can make a phone call
Wait for any in-flight phone
Calls Watch everything that happens on the phone during a single Call or all
calls.
Keep track of the length of calls, errors, and
call drops.
Now let’s start
Install the plugin
Flutter_phone_state: ^0.5.8
Initiate a call
It is best to make calls from your app whenever you can. This is the best way to find where the call came from.
final phoneCall = FlutterPhoneState.makePhoneCall("480-555-1234");
The truth about a call comes from a PhoneCall object.
showCallInfo(PhoneCall phoneCall) {
print(phoneCall.status);
print(phoneCall.isComplete);
print(phoneCall.events);
}
PhoneCall.events can be read as a stream, and when the call is over, the plugin will gracefully close the stream. The plugin keeps an eye on all calls in progress and will eventually force any call to time out.
watchEvents(PhoneCall phoneCall) {
phoneCall.eventStream.forEach((PhoneCallEvent event) {
print("Event $event");
});
print("Call is complete");
}
You could also just wait until the call is over.
waitForCompletion(PhoneCall phoneCall) async {
await phoneCall.done;
print("Call is completed");
}
Accessing in-flight calls
In-flight calls can be accessed like this:
final `activeCalls = FutterPhoneState.activeCalls;`
Note that activeCalls is a copy of the calls at the time you called it. This copy cannot be changed. It won't be updated on its own.
Watching all events
You can watch all the events instead of just focusing on one call. We recommend using “FlutterPhoneState.phoneCallEventStream” because it includes our own tracking logic, call timeouts, failures, etc.
watchAllPhoneCallEvents() {
FlutterPhoneState.phoneCallEvents.forEach((PhoneCallEvent event) {
final phoneCall = event.call;
print("Got an event $event");
});
print("That loop ^^ won't end");
}
You can sign up to get the raw events if you want to. Keep in mind that there are only so many of these events.
watchAllRawEvents() {
FlutterPhoneState.rawPhoneEvent.forEach((RawPhoneEvent event) {
final phoneCall = event.call;
print("Got an event $event");
});
print("That loop ^^ won't end");
I've got an app which connect itself programatically to a wifi connection. My problem is, I want to handle the case, that the password is wrong. I want to detect that the password is not correct in runtime. To be precise I've got a progressdialog running while the connection is established, so if the password is wrong the progressdialog is just shown all the time and can't be skipped. A further note: I handled a password which is less than 8 characters by using this code:
if(!m_wifiManager.enableNetwork(netId, true)) {
progressDialogConnecting.dismiss();
createInfoMessageDialog(CONST.WIFI_CON_FAILED_TITLE, CONST.WIFI_CON_FAILED_MSG_CONFAILURE);
m_wifiManager.reconnect();
return;
}
If the key for the wifi connection is less than 8 characters, this if-case gets triggered. But if it is longer than 8 characters and wrong I get an endless state of showing the progress dialog.
What I exactly want to ask: how do I handle 1. wrong password 2. connection states (just like Android system showing me the toasts "Connected to Wifi xyz") ? AND is it even possible to handel the first one (wrong password)?
Here is the code, that did not work for handling connection established event (this is just the wifirecevier, I also registered it in the activity):
public class WifiReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
final String action = intent.getAction();
if (action.equals(WifiManager.SUPPLICANT_CONNECTION_CHANGE_ACTION)) {
if (intent.getBooleanExtra(WifiManager.EXTRA_SUPPLICANT_CONNECTED, false)){
if(wrongNetworkConnected)
progressDialogConnecting.dismiss();
}
}
} else {
}
}
}
}
Edit: What I am currently doing, is that I have a Handler which tells me to whom I am connected. That's useful because I can say that after the reconnect() I am reconnected to the old network (current network) and not the new one - so apparently the password could be wrong (or something else), because I could not connect to the new network.
The problem about this method is that first of all it takes too much time and secondly it is not reliable. I can lie and say that if you will get reconnected to your current network it is the fault of a wrong password, but actually it is not 100% sure that you cannot reconnect because of this - it may also have other reasons. So I am still searching for a simple feedback/handle from the suplicant that the password is wrong, just like the android api does in the wifi settings of each android device...
My problem is, I want to handle the case, that the password is wrong.
After some research I found this post which is not marked as answered but it still worked for me very well.
Here is the if-case in which the program jumps (already tested several times by me) if there is an authentication error --> e.g. wrong password:
int supl_error=intent.getIntExtra(WifiManager.EXTRA_SUPPLICANT_ERROR, -1);
if(supl_error==WifiManager.ERROR_AUTHENTICATING){
// DO SOMETHING
}
NOTE: As seen in the linked post above this if-case should appear in a BroadcastReceiver adding the intent WifiManager.SUPPLICANT_STATE_CHANGED_ACTIONto the receiver-registration in your activity-class.
whenever we get a call, we do see missed call notification. Is there a way to remove the missed call notification in android programatically?
We see missed calls numbers & its count. Can we remove them via code?
The only "legal" but extremely ugly and usually useless way to achieve what you want is to show Call Log to user. And I mean literally show (becomes visual, gets focus). In case you want to do this, here's how:
public static boolean showCallLog(Context context)
{
try
{
Intent showCallLog = new Intent();
showCallLog.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
showCallLog.setType(android.provider.CallLog.Calls.CONTENT_TYPE);
context.startActivity(showCallLog);
return true;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Log.d("Couldn't show call log.", e.getMessage());
}
return false;
}
The reason behind this mess is the fact that apps authoritatively responsible for call logging and notifying users about missed calls (stock phone apps) use cached values. Why? Because of overall performance. You need to somehow notify those apps that Call Log has changed (seen means changed, as well) and that it should update it. It would be nice if all such apps on all devices would receive a broadcast in order to refresh, but as far as I know, it's not the case.
I hope someone will find a better way to force refresh on stock phone apps.
I posted this on Android dev group. I'm hoping I can get some feedback here.
The PhoneStateListener's callbacks onCellLocationChanged and onSignalStrengthsChanged were the goto methods for when I wanted to handle cell and signal data changes in GSM and CDMA. With API 17+, I can see that there's a new callback (onCellInfoChanged) for handling both cell and signal changes.
Looking at the documentation, it's not clear what I can expect from the introduction of this new callback.
Will LTE changes always and only trigger onCellInfoChanged?
Will GSM/CDMA changed remain on the older callbacks?
Does one overlap with the other? (i.e. Both old and new get triggered for LTE or GSM/CDMA.)
It may very well be that different OEMs will have different implementations (sigh!), but I'm hoping there are guidelines that everyone's supposed to follow.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks,
Sebouh
I didn't test if but it looks from the code that both will be called.
I downloaded code source of Android 4.3(API 18) using the SDK Manager.
The following observations made me think that both would be called.
The class that triggers these events is: com.android.server.TelephonyRegistry
It notifies the listener though:
public void listen(String pkgForDebug, IPhoneStateListener callback, int events, boolean notifyNow)
This same function calls for both type of notifications(Location and CellInfo) in a non exclusive way.
On line 256:
if (validateEventsAndUserLocked(r, PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CELL_LOCATION)) {
try {
if (DBG_LOC) Slog.d(TAG, "listen: mCellLocation=" + mCellLocation);
r.callback.onCellLocationChanged(new Bundle(mCellLocation));
} catch (RemoteException ex) {
remove(r.binder);
}
}
This one will call onCellLocationChanged even on new LTE phone since there is nothing from the above code that would prevent this. This needs double checking that there is no upper layer that filters the events themselves
On line 300 in the same code:
if (validateEventsAndUserLocked(r, PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CELL_INFO)) {
try {
if (DBG_LOC) Slog.d(TAG, "listen: mCellInfo=" + mCellInfo);
r.callback.onCellInfoChanged(mCellInfo);
} catch (RemoteException ex) {
remove(r.binder);
}
}
There are other things from the code that look like CDMA will be calling the newer API. For example com.android.internal.telephony.cdma.CdmaLteServiceStateTracker seems to be dealing with CDMA and LTE. Again it would require a more careful look but that should give you a good place to start.
You can also try to simulate that with the emulator.
I'm writing an Android app which receives information from a Bluetooth device. Our client has suggested that the Bluetooth device (which they produce) will change its name depending on certain conditions - for the simplest example its name will sometimes be "xxx-ON" and sometimes "xxx-OFF". My app is just supposed to seek this BT transmitter (I use BluetoothAdapter.startDiscovery() ) and do different things depending on the name it finds. I am NOT pairing with the Bluetooth device (though I suppose it might be possible, the app is supposed to eventually work with multiple Android devices and multiple BT transmitters so I'm not sure it would be a good idea).
My code works fine to detect BT devices and find their names. Also, if the device goes off, I can detect the next time I seek, that it is not there. But it seems that if it is there and it changes name, I pick up the old name - presumably it is cached somewhere. Even if the bluetooth device goes off, and we notice that, the next time I detect it, I still see the old name.
I found this issue in Google Code: here but it was unclear to me even how to use the workaround given ("try to connect"). Has anyone done this and had any luck? Can you share code?
Is there a simple way to just delete the cached names and search again so I always find the newest names? Even a non-simple way would be good (I am writing for a rooted device).
Thanks
I would suggest 'fetchUuidsWithSdp()'. It's significance is that, unlike the similar getUuids() method, fetchUuidsWithSdp causes the device to update cached information about the remote device. And I believe this includes the remote name as well as the SPD.
Note that both the methods I mentioned are hidden prior to 4.0.3, so your code would look l ike this:
public static void startServiceDiscovery( BluetoothDevice device ) {
// Need to use reflection prior to API 15
Class cl = null;
try {
cl = Class.forName("android.bluetooth.BluetoothDevice");
} catch( ClassNotFoundException exc ) {
Log.e(CTAG, "android.bluetooth.BluetoothDevice not found." );
}
if (null != cl) {
Class[] param = {};
Method method = null;
try {
method = cl.getMethod("fetchUuidsWithSdp", param);
} catch( NoSuchMethodException exc ) {
Log.e(CTAG, "fetchUuidsWithSdp not found." );
}
if (null != method) {
Object[] args = {};
try {
method.invoke(device, args);
} catch (Exception exc) {
Log.e(CTAG, "Failed to invoke fetchUuidsWithSdp method." );
}
}
}
}
You'll then need to listen for the BluetoothDevice.ACTION_NAME_CHANGED intent, and extract BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_NAME from it.
Let me know if that helps.
