First, a non-programming question: My phone is auto-responding to missed calls with a text message: "Sorry. I'm not near my phone right now." Where did my phone get the idea to do that and how do I make it stop?
And a programming question: How can I make my Android do arbitrary things in response to a missed call, such as email me the phone number, or just customize the SMS auto-response, perhaps replying with my location.
I figured out that I had installed an Android Market app called dgAway that does SMS auto-responses. I had never run that app nor checked the "auto-respond to missed calls" box, but it seems that may have been what was doing the auto-responses. I tried uninstalling it and the auto-responses seem to have stopped.
ADDED: I found a really nice Android app, DroidTracker, that will (for approved contacts) auto-reply with your location when the contact texts you a phrase of your choosing (eg, "where are you?" or "ping"). You can also set a less guessable phrase (default is "I want my phone back") that will cause your phone to auto-respond to anyone, approved or not. That way if your phone is lost or stolen you can ask your phone where it is.
The answer to your programming question:
Setup an IntentListener for incoming calls. If it's not answered, have your application process it accordingly!
my android moto i1 phone was sending text message back to people that call me with the message "bitch" every time I received a call. Has anyone experiance this? is this a virus of sorts or app? Of course this has my friends mad who think i called them "bitch" Everytime they call.
