How to pick up a call by adb

Question

Can I pick up a call by any adb command? I know that you can dial a number by "adb shell service call phone 2 s16 "+15084157509".

Can phone service do pick-up call or can I send some adb command to manipulate activity?

much appreciated

Fantastic!!! What about hitting a button in that call would it be as previously stated? – Robert J Feb 19 '16 at 22:34
Also would this require root access if I was using tasker? – Robert J Feb 19 '16 at 22:39
@RobertJ yes this requires root access. – rbennell Jun 28 '18 at 09:56

Set the following property on far end to auto answer the incoming call in 2 seconds

adb shell setprop persist.sys.tel.autoanswer.ms 2000

To turn off auto answer,

adb shell setprop persist.sys.tel.autoanswer.ms 0
