Sending characters to phone call after call established

Hello,

is there a chance to send characters (DTMF) after a call has been launched by the app and the connections has been established?

I found something with the SIP/VOIP library, but I don't know if that is the right direction, as I want it for standard GSM phone calls...!?

Best regards,

Carsten

Hello Erel,

on classic phones it is possible to dial and force the dialer to wait for connection and then continue to send tones. Like this:

012345,,,999

I also read that you can use P or W in the dial string to separate phone number and DTMF tones (instead of comma in my example above).

Unfortunately, that doesn't work from the app as the Android dialer dials 7 or 9 instead of P or W. And the comma just forces the dialer to wait just a few seconds before while dialing.

Is there a chance to pass a real P or W to the dial string?

Best regards,

Carsten

Android doesn't support it: Issue 1428 - android - feature request: sending DTMF tones over existing phone call to the far end - Android - An Open Handset Alliance Project - Google Project Hosting

Just read that thread....it still doesn't seem possible, hard to believe.

Can you play a media file to the person on the other end of the line? I wrote an app to play a DTMF tone. When I am on a call only I hear the DTMF sound, not the person on the other line - is there a way to inject the sound into the audio stream?
