How I can access the call log/history of iPhone

Question

This is for jailbroken iPhone.

Is there a way I can access the call_history.db on iPhone which is a database where apple logs the phone call information.

It is stored at /private/var/mobile/Library/CallHistory directory. When I try to enumerate directory paths under /private/var/mobile/Library it does not list CallHistory folder but everything else. I guess Apple does allow access somehow despite of having all the permissions.

Is there a way I can get access to call_history.db and copy it under my app?

I have already gone through another stackoverflow question here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/341622/accessing-the-iphones-call-log-with-the-iphone-sdk but no luck so far :(

Answer 1

hello, AJ

i also have the same problem as you have mention but i can't get answer of it.

it seems to be impossible now....

Answer 2

it is located in /private/var/wireless/Library/CallHistory

if you ssh into the phone through terminal, and you enter

find | grep "name of file you are looking for(case sensitive)"

It'll normally pull it up for you.
