How to retrieve missed calls on Android SDK 2.2

Question

Hello everyone, in my app I should do some action when a call comes but not answered by the user.

I have searched in the android.telephony and the NotificationManager, but I haven't found a method to solve this problem.

Does someone have an idea of how to get to know if there is a missed call on the phone or not ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Answer 1

From what I understand, you need to query the CallLog provider (or maybe CallLog.Calls), and this page explains how to query content provider: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/providers/content-providers.html#basics

I'd be happy to see the code if you can make this work !

Answer 2

I suppose you have content providers to access call logs.

If this code works you just need to run this query at the right time. I mean check some samples that can notify you when you get a call in your device

Once you get this notification put a timer or use some built in Intents to find that the phone is back to normal state and access the call logs...
