How To Identify Incoming Call And Outgoing Call In Android

how to get the events of incoming call and outgoing call in android separately. Actually i was trying to develop an application that open on incoming call if number is exist in dat

Solution 1:

i want to restrict to open my application on outgoing call.

on case TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK: check if the previous state was CALL_STATE_RINGING or CALL_STATE_IDLE (for example by settings a different flag in both cases).
In the latter case proceed with opening your application, else do nothing

Solution 2:

add <action android:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" /> in your receiver and process it in your onReceive() method.

<receiver android:name=".IncomingCallReceiver" >
    <intent-filter >             
       <action android:name="android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE" />
       <action android:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" />             
    </intent-filter>
</receiver>

Solution 3:

The intent action android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL process the outgoing calls, but for the incoming call i suggest to check it this way:

if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_NEW_OUTGOING_CALL)) {
        //outgoing call
} else if (intent.getStringExtra(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_INCOMING_NUMBER) != null) {
        //incoming call
}
