Android O : PHONE_STATE broadcast limitation

Question

I have been trying to do something similar to truecaller app, where my app is supposed to show a screen after a call gets hung up. Was achieving this by registering androi

Answer 1

Eventually, the action was added to the "Implicit Broadcast Exceptions" list so you can add ACTION_PHONE_STATE_CHANGED to your manifest and it will work:

ACTION_CARRIER_CONFIG_CHANGED, TelephonyIntents.ACTION_*_SUBSCRIPTION_CHANGED, "TelephonyIntents.SECRET_CODE_ACTION", ACTION_PHONE_STATE_CHANGED, ACTION_PHONE_ACCOUNT_REGISTERED, ACTION_PHONE_ACCOUNT_UNREGISTERED

OEM telephony apps may need to receive these broadcasts.
