Receiving incoming calls

[erdoganozkaya 0]

Hello friends,

 

How do I get Android incoming calls instantly?

 

IFMXPhoneDialerService, I would be glad if you share an example.

 

Thank you.

You could extend this demo:

 

https://github.com/Embarcadero/RADStudio10.3.3Demos/tree/master/Object Pascal/Mobile Snippets/PhoneDialer

 

Just create a handler for the OnCallStateChanged event of FPhoneDialerService, handle TCallState.Incoming and fetch the call using GetCurrentCalls

Hello,

 

to make this call.

 

I want to receive incoming calls

 

Thank you.

Then do what Dave said to do:

In other words, add something like this to the code:

procedure TPhoneDialerForm.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
{$IFDEF ANDROID}
  FCallPhonePermission := JStringToString(TJManifest_permission.JavaClass.CALL_PHONE);
{$ENDIF}
  { test whether the PhoneDialer services are supported }
  if TPlatformServices.Current.SupportsPlatformService(IFMXPhoneDialerService, FPhoneDialerService) then
    FPhoneDialerService.OnCallStateChanged := CallStateChanged; // <-- ADD THIS!
end;

procedure TPhoneDialerForm.CallStateChanged(const ACallID: String; const AState: TCallState);
var
  Calls: TCalls;
  Call: TCall;
begin
  if AState = TCallState.Incoming then
  begin
    Calls := FPhoneDialerService.GetCurrentCalls;
    try
      for Call in Calls do
      begin
        if Call.GetCallID = ACallID then
        begin
          // use Call as needed ...
          Exit;
        end;
      end;
    finally
      for Call in Calls do
        Call.Free;
    end;
  end;
end;

Was there something wrong with the example I gave you in my previous reply?

Hello, I put the example to test, it doesn't work. It seems to me that this event, CallStateChanged is not working. I already test in diferent android versions, and doesn't work. This is my code. Am i doing something whorng? For make calls it works.

Error in sintax.

I been struggling with this too. What i have learned is that in Android you need to have permission to READ_CALL_LOG to get phone number. But i still have trouble get CallStateChange to trigger.

With this solution i managed to get CallStateChange trigger, but it doesn't work always. Need to try making it Android Service and see if it works better:

 

stackoverflow.com/questions/61215767/delphi-android-read-phone-state-not-triggering

 

This is my code to get all three permissions:

constructor TForm1.Create(AOwner: TComponent);
const
  PermissionAccessReadPhoneState = 'android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE';
  PermissionAccessMakeCall = 'android.permission.CALL_PHONE';
  PermissionAccessReadCallLog = 'android.permission.READ_CALL_LOG';
begin
  inherited Create(AOwner);

  PermissionsService.RequestPermissions([PermissionAccessMakeCall, PermissionAccessReadPhoneState, PermissionAccessReadCallLog],
    procedure(const APermissions: TArray<string>; const AGrantResults: TArray<TpermissionStatus>)
      begin
         TPlatformServices.Current.SupportsPlatformService(IFMXPhoneDialerService, IInterface(PhoneDialerService));
            if (Length(AgrantResults) = 3) and (AgrantResults[0] = TPermissionStatus.Granted) and (AgrantResults[1] = TPermissionStatus.Granted) and (AgrantResults[2] = TPermissionStatus.Granted) then
                begin
                  ShowMessage('READ_PHONE_STATE + CALL_PHONE + READ_CALL_LOG Activated!');
               end;
          end);

  if Assigned(PhoneDialerService) then
      begin
        PhoneDialerService.OnCallStateChanged := MyOnCallStateChanged;
      end;

end;

I'am having same trouble, sometimes CallStateChange works, sometimes not. I haven't figured out why.

 

Maybe if make Android Service, it works better. haven't tried it yet.

[CarioJr 2]

To me, never works. What android version are you using to test? Thanks.

[Lars Fosdal 1793]

Have you setup the required permissions in the Android manifest?

From https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/PhoneStateListener#onCallStateChanged

String: call phone number. If application does not have READ_CALL_LOG permission or carrier privileges (see TelephonyManager#hasCarrierPrivileges), an empty string will be passed as an argument.

[erva 2]

Android 9. And in manifest is permissions.

"And in manifest is permissions"

[CarioJr 2]

I tried in a device with android 4.4 and it works. But is very obsolet.

[erva 2]

I abandod catching calls immediately when phone rings. Get calls info from call log, number and seconds what call last and move them database. Reading Android call logs seems to working flawless.

[CarioJr 2]

Can you give me an exemple?

I tried in android studio, it works in versions below 9. But my client have a galaxy s30 with the android 10. In him The number came null, in my manifest i think i put all the permissions. Can you help me?

 

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_PHONE_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS"/>

I have just a "demo" app what reads call log when started. Been thinking solutions when to transfer calls to database.

 

Maybe this kind of solution to append to DB only new calls:

 

1. Read call from log

2. Search from DB if call with same unix time exists in DB.

3. If not found, append call to db

 

Been thinking if it's possible remove calls from log with code?

Found this discussion, might be that in Android 10 getting call number is not possible anymore for security reasons?

Can you get caller name from log?

 

I have Android 9 and some day we have to move to Android 10. If phone number is not showing anymore, must think other solutions to link call to your customers in CRM.

I didin't try. For me only matter the number, my client wants to know who is calling and the relationated data in my software during the call.

Now I finaly get the number! But unfortunately not on delphi!

[erva 2]

Thinking if can't get number in Android 10 and beyond that, solution might be adding in DB with client record same name what's in phones address book. We need to track existing clients calls and how long they take, one person takes care about 50 clients so that might be working solution.
