I am working on an android project. I would like to ask how to modify the last call log (phone number). I am using an incoming broadcast receiver so I know when incoming calls arrive. Need some advice. Appreciate
Your question seems like a duplicate of Delete call from call log after call end.
There is a content provider you can use to search for certain calls and delete them. Look at the question that I linked.

Play store has numerous apps those creates fake call logs.But, sometimes it's important to detect is that call log real or fake to save yourself being a fool. Can anybody tell me how can we detect same?
If these apps are writing to the actual android call log, I don't think there is much you can do against that.
However, you might want to try the below solution, which can maintain your own call list based on the device behaviour.
In Android you can listen for incoming and outgoing calls, using a BroadcastReceiver. Here is a good tutorial for it:

If you implement it correctly, you will only receive events from calls being executed for real. So you can save them in your app's call log.
How do I access call log for android?
found this but this gives me an access to my existing call log. I want to make private call log in which some specified numbers will be handled.
A "private call log" is simply a list (or ListView activity).
You can use the same layouts and fonts as the "default" android app, but remember that each carrier and manufacturer re-brands the call logs on almost every phone.
So you just need to make your own. You can monitor call logs and remove them if you don't want them duplicated in both logs. See this post:
Delete call log in android for particular number
My question may look a bit strange.
I want to know if, in android, it is possible to know which number has been called when you receive an incoming call (I'm not speaking about caller id).
For example: let's assume that my phone number is 555-12345, my operator will route to my phone every number starting with 555-12345.
This means that you can call me by dialing 555-12345, but also by dialing 555-12345-37967 or 555-12345-34 etc.
Is there a way to know which number the caller has dialed?
If it is not possible to do this using Android API, would be possible to achieve my goal at lower level? Maybe using a customized firmware?
I was searching for this and not found any answer, the sample app (sipDemo) do not handle incoming call too. Fortunately I found the answer:
mSipManager.getSessionFor(intent).getPeerProfile().getUserName()
Good luck ;)
I was wondering if there was a way to modify the call log? I would like to edit date on the call.
If for example I received a call today I would like to edit the log and change the date to yesterday.
Anyone have any ideas?
That seems like a really weird thing to do, but...
The provider for call log data (CallLog.Calls) only publicly documents methods to query the data, not modify it. You could go into the Android source to see if there is an undocumented method.
I would like to know how to intercept incoming calls and also how to forward them. I know there are several questions regarding this topic here and elsewhere on the net, but all the answers use the android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE action which is broadcast always after the phone begins to ring and the call screen is shown.
That's why I'm looking for a solution where i could intercept the call in an early stage before any notification (ringing etc..) has been done. I would like to know if maybe this is possible on a platform level in native code and if yes how ? Or perhaps with some kind of trick with the SDK ?
In general, if you can't do it in Java, you can't do it in the NDK. Most of the time the opposite is true: You can't do MOST things on Android in the NDK.
I don't know of a way to do that, and frankly doubt it exists: It would be a huge security hole if you could download an application that would forward calls to another number.
You may want to look at this source code, it may help you : http://code.google.com/p/auto-answer/
None of the existing apps in Android can forward a call based on a given number. All they can do is forward all or nothing. There's one app in particular (cBlocker) that can forward calls on schedule besides blocking incoming and outgoing calls and SMS based on rules.
