Can a telephony.Phone object be instantiated through the sdk?

Question

I am trying to get a phone object so that I can call and conference two numbers from within my application.

I have tried using the static PhoneFactory.makeDefa

Answer 1

Al least we can answer or ignore calls =) let me copy-paste my post

OMG!!! YES, WE CAN DO THAT!!!
I was going to kill myself after severe 24 hours of investigating and discovering... But I've found a "fresh" solution!

// "cheat" with Java reflection to gain access
// to TelephonyManager's ITelephony getter
Class c = Class.forName(tm.getClass().getName());
Method m = c.getDeclaredMethod("getITelephony");
m.setAccessible(true);
telephonyService = (ITelephony)m.invoke(tm);

There is a project. and there are important comments (and credits).

In short: copy AIDL file, add permissions to manifest, copy-paste source for telephony management.

Some more info for you. AT commands you can send only if you are rooted. Than you can kill system process and send commands but you will need a reboot to allow your phone to receive and send calls.

I'm very happy! =) Now my Shake2MuteCall will get an update !
