I am trying to kill a phone call programatically in Android Oreo.
Here is my source code.
public boolean killCall(Context context) {
try {
TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
Method m1 = tm.getClass().getDeclaredMethod("getITelephony");
m1.setAccessible(true);
Object iTelephony = m1.invoke(tm);
Method m2 = iTelephony.getClass().getDeclaredMethod("silenceRinger");
Method m3 = iTelephony.getClass().getDeclaredMethod("endCall");
m2.invoke(iTelephony);
m3.invoke(iTelephony);
} catch (Exception ex) { // Many things can go wrong with reflection calls
Log.d(TAG,"PhoneStateReceiver **" + ex.getCause());
ex.getCause().printStackTrace();
return false;
}
return true;
}
But I get Exception java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 10187 nor current process has android.permission.CALL_PHONE.
Although I have defined permission in manifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CALL_PHONE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.PROCESS_INCOMING_CALLS" />
I am also taking run time permissions using a popup, and when I view application permissions, the phone permission is enabled there too. I am wondering why this happening and amazingly this happening on Android Oreo only, not on lower versions. Any helpful suggestion would be wonderful.
