Hi All.
I have an idea for a wee app. that I will prob. just use for myself but what I want to do is have my app. interact with the dialler.
let me explain.
I downloaded a SIP client, CSipSimple I THINK it is called.
When I go to make a call, I can choose between the actual phone, Skype or the SIP client. I want to add my app. to the list so my app. will do what I am trying to achieve.

Anyone got any idea on how to do this?

Thanks, Jeremy
 
Edit AndroidManifest.xml that is located under Objects folder.
Add this line:
Change:
Code: Copy
<intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
To:
Code: Copy
<intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />

<action android:name="android.intent.action.CALL_BUTTON" />

            </intent-filter>
It should now start your activity when the user presses on the call button.
