How to programmatically answer a call?

Question

Hi all,

I want to answer a phone call. I found the intent android.intent.action.ANSWER but it seems that the only effect that I obtain is an ActivityNotFoundException. Why? Is it a deprecated intent? How can I achieve answer? I have also heard about the "telnet technique". What is that?

Thanks

this event dose not work. you should use: Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_BUTTON); KeyEvent event =new KeyEvent(KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN,KeyEvent.KEYCODE_HEADSETHOOK); i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_KEY_EVENT, event ); context.sendOrderedBroadcast(i, null); that emulate a bhavior of press key. BR,
