calllog - Is it possible to detect rejected calls in Android?

Question

In my application, it would be nice to intercept when the user rejects a call, i.e. choose to send busy tone. Is there any way, besides being notified when there is an incoming call, to do this? I have not found anything in the docs regarding this. Is this information stored in the call log, i.e. can I poll the call log to see if a call was rejected or answered?

Hey. You could use the PhoneStateListener and CallLog classes to query the recent calls list to find rejected calls.

Alternatively you can monitor broadcasts on android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL and android.intent.action.NEW_INCOMING_CALL just put android.permission.PROCESS_INCOMING_CALLS and android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS in your manifest.
