Action_Call intent doesnt start call directly when dialing #190

I'm trying to call two different numbers, for #193 it works correctly, by that I mean pressing the button start calling the number:

btnb = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.activity_home_button_b);

btnb.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
callIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:193"));
startActivity(callIntent);

}
});

But for the #190 it does give me the screen to dial the number instead of making the call.

btna = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.activity_home_button_a);
btna.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);
callIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:190"));
startActivity(callIntent);
}
});

Any advice?

could you add your buttons code as well? – donfuxx Feb 25 '14 at 19:44
does it show any message on logcat? – Giacomoni Feb 25 '14 at 19:59
I had a second look in the logcat and I did find this: Cannot call potential emergency number '190' with CALL Intent Intent { act=android.intent.action.CALL dat=tel:xxx cmp=com.android.phone/.OutgoingCallBroadcaster }. – Gallasch Feb 25 '14 at 20:15
So there's your answer hehe :) – Giacomoni Feb 25 '14 at 20:25
Is there any way to avoid that? I'm doing an emergency call app! – Gallasch Feb 25 '14 at 20:44
I did find another answer on the subject: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14238410/how-to-make-a-call-directly-in-android – Gallasch Feb 25 '14 at 20:56
@giacomoni Would you post a answer as you did help me to find it? – Gallasch Feb 25 '14 at 20:58
Well, i use the same code as you to make call in my app, and searching for it on google i have not found any workarounds for that. Like @Henry said on the answer you posted, you can't use that on emergency numbers. – Giacomoni Feb 25 '14 at 21:03
