2 Things I strongly desire: The ability to unmap the call button on my phone, and the ability to make it check email on startup.
So question 1 is straight forward: Any idea how to make it check email on startup?
Q2: Is there a way to disable the call feature, or perhaps set the "last called person" string to a null string or force it to be a phone number of choice (one that automagically hangs up?) All the lock programs (built in, mortsaver) I have used are unsuccessfull in this.
Edit: The beter question is does anybody know a method to programatically access and edit(clear) the data provided by call history? If I could replace the call history manager then I could retain call history while preventing the phone from knowing the phonenumber to the last call.

how can i intercept a phone call?

what i want to do is to automatically add a specific prefix to all outgoing calls made, for the purpose of saving calling fee in my area. for instance, i want to add 1234 before any call number, whether it's from call history, contact, or any other sources.
im a .net developer, but i didn't find any managed library that can intercept a phone call and make modifications to it. i also explored the TAPI a little bit, it appeared to be able to do the work for me. but the problem is i've no idea of c++ programming.
so is there anybody here who can help me on how to wrap these native methods into managed counterparts?
any/other clue would be appreciated.

Take a look at Google Voice. Perhaps that might be simpler to use to save money on calls?

Hi,
try with Settings > Connections > Advanced > Dialing Rules
I think you can setup a profile that fit your needs.

doesn't work. and i don't think that setting is for phone connection.

actually i've changed my idea to developing a separate application to access call history and contact. and then when call button is clicked, use the managed Phone class to dial out. this still needs native dll as to accessing the call history. but this seems to be more practical than intercepting outgoing calls.

iDialer
http://supware.net/iDialer/
Not sure if this is exactly what you want, but I use this with my Googlevoice configuration to make free calls. Here's how I have it set up:
1. Installed iDialer
2. Installed configuration CAB that I built through the iDialer website
3. Click the phone icon within iDialer to set it to "Ask" which service to use.
4. I also have installed iContact, so I then go the contact I want through iContact.
5. I select the number for that contact that I want to dial (Home, Work, Mobile, etc.)
6. My phone brings up a pop-up asking:
-Alltel
-GoogleVoice Internet
-GoogleVoice CallingCard
7. I select what I want and it dials that instantly.
This works VERY well for me, and I am able to use my callingcard for out-of-network calls, and Alltel for quick in-network calls.
Hope this info helps!

thanks for the details.
i have 2 queries b4 actually trying it:
1. does the phone call get available via the network? if yes, then it's not applicable for me, cos i'm using gprs which is slow if i want to transfer voice.
2. i checked out google voice and found that it only supports numbers in US. true?

Moved as not software release or development.
Please take your time to read the rules..

[APP](15Aug2010) SipekMobile VoIP v3.1.2 Final

Hi There,
This is a VoIP client app based on the open source pjSip stack. SipekMobile was existing, but I worked on it a lot to improve and more integrate with the phone.
For noobies, this app alone is not enough to make voip calls, you need to register with a voip provider, and buy some credit.
Development is stopped and 3.1.2 is the final version. If anyone wants to take over, send me a PM and I'll provide the source code.
If WiFi is not connected when the app is launched, it will start a gprs connection automatically, this might cause additional charges with your gsm operator.
FEATURES
- caller id
- stun server
- proximity sensor during call
- earpice/loudspeaker switch
- in call dtmf
- codec priority config
- sense favorite people auto import
- dial pad with contact search
- sense like ui
- outgoing call intercept
- auto data connection if wifi is not available
- auto data disconnect at exit
- supported codecs are:
PCMU (G711U) 8 kHz
PCMA (G711A) 8 kHz
speex 8, 16, 32 kHz
GSM 8 kHz
G722 16 kHz
CONFIGURATION
The cab can be installed on the device, or on the storage card. When first run, the app will start with the settings page, where you need to fill-in your sip account information, you need to check with your voip provider for the settings, but here is an example:
SIP Server: sip.12voip.com
Username: <username>
Password: <password>
Caller ID: If you have registered a phone number with your voip provider, fill in that number here, otherwise leave it empty
STUN Server: If you don't have connection problems, leave it empty, otherwise fill in the stun server of your voip provider
Transport: Select UDP
Enable Presence: Off
Call Intercept: If this is enabled and the app is running, it will detect an outgoing call (whether initiated by the built-in dialer, or by clicking one of the favorites on the people tab), it will hang-up the call, and will initiate a voip call to that number. WARNING: If you enable this functionality and leave the app running, you will not be able to call emergency numbers. I am not responsible for any consequences, you are warned! Available options are: Off: Don't interfere, Detect and Ask: The app will hang-up the call and pop-up a message box to ask if you want to call the number using voip, yes will start the voip call, no will start the gsm call again, cancel will do nothing
Codecs: When you first run the app, you won't see any codecs listed. The list of supported codecs are retrieved from the pjSip stack dynamically, and it doesn't seem to work until an account is registered. Work around, click the Save button, then you will get a number of combo boxes.
Now you need to configure your codecs, selecting Off will disable that codec. Choose the codec you want to have the highest priority, and set it to 0, choose the next highest priority one and set it to 1, ...
Finally click the Save button to save and apply the configuration.

Does this mean I can use Voipwise on my HD2?
If yes, I would really want that

you are welcome. there are quite some downloads, but only 1 feedback yet. either it's working fine for everyone, or it is so bad that people just give up after the first trial

Installed (on storage card), entered my settings, then it crashed - repeatedly every time I open it. (Checked in Task Manager it had ceased). Reinstalled, same crashing after initial opening.
Error Message says:-
An error message cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found.

Could it be that you don't have .net cf 2 installed?

I installed it crashed after putting account settings
Everytime I'm trying to start it crashes with error:

Displaying A Selected Contact In Call Log When Multiple Contacts Share Same Number

The following Google Contacts are stored in an Android Phone for ACME Corporation:
Amy Appleseed
John Doe
Pedro Valdez
Amy, John and Pedro all share a work telephone number.
I'm working with Pedro on a project and would like to track the dates and times of our phone conversations using the call log on my Android phone.
However, even though Pedro is manually selected from the contact list, Amy Appleseed appears as the called party because she is the first contact for ACME Corporation, which are listed alphabetically.
This behavior can be consistently duplicated on a Motorola Milestone X2 (Droid X2) running 2.3.6 stock but this has been an issue on every Android phone I have ever owned from Android 2.1 to 2.3.6.
Is there any way that I can call Pedro AND have his name appear in my Call Log using Android?

I think that's just the way it works. i.e. the call log program is unaware of how the call was made--it just knows which number was dialed and at what time and resorts to a reverse look up to get the name. You can sort of see this from the way the numbers pop up...and then the names start filing in. Also, after adding a new contact for a number, the contact name magically appears in the call log.
I know its a hack, but what if you try variations on the number for your contacts with the same phone number? For example:
123-123-1234
123-1234
+1-123-123-1234
1-123-123-1234
Depending on your phone company, these may all dial the same phone number (but, you'll want to confirm that they won't charge you long distance for using 11 digits to dial a local number). With luck, they may fool Android into thinking that they're different phone numbers.
As for incoming calls, though, you may want to make a contact for just the company with a number that matches whatever your call display pops up when either person calls. There's no way it'll know who's on the other end if the call display is the same across your colleagues.
Hope this helps,

Hi cttttt,
Thanks for the response. The reverse lookup of the first contact listed for a number is understandable for an incoming call, but I would think there should be a way where dialing outbound from a manually selected contact would write the selected contact name to the Call Log.
Is this something that could be accomplished with a third party app? Perhaps a dialer with a contact look-up that rewrites the call log to reflect the selected contact (or keep a call log of its own)?
I'd appreciate the input of a developer or anyone with experience with the OS to suggest whether this can be accomplished programmatically...

Found It!
I was searching for the same thing for my GS3 and found this solution:
[Since I am new, it won't let me post the link...which is the helpful part. here is an attempt to get you the information anyway.]

Short answer: create a contact on the phone (not google/gmail), it seems to search those first.
The link gives other stuff you can do; I found the above to work quite well.

Android Advice: Shared Home Phone Numbers
One of the things that has always annoyed me with cell phones is that there is no good way to handle multiple people having the same home phone number. Android’s contact manager allows multiple contacts to share the same number (because the database is not indexed by phone number, like on many older phones). This still wasn’t perfect for me, however. When a phone number shared by multiple contacts calls, the first match (sorted alphabetically A-Z) is displayed on the caller ID screen and in the call log. Fortunately, this consistency means we can manipulate the system to display a custom name. The following steps illustrate the technique:
1. Lets say we have a theoretical family: John and Jane Smith. They each have a cell phone, but live together and therefore share a home phone number. They each are added in Android with their mobile number as their primary number, and their home number as their secondary number. Both can be called at either their home or mobile number from the contact list. When a phone call is recieved from their home number, Jane Smith is displayed in the caller id and call logs because she is first alphabetically.
2. For this technique to work cleanly (without any additional clutter), you must have your Android contact manager set only to display “My Contacts” (this settings is under Contacts > Menu > Display Group > My Contacts)
3. Log into Gmail and switch the contacts view
4. Create a new group to put these combined “metacontacts” (I called the group “Metacontacts”)
5. Force your G1 to synchronize contacts (Home Screen > Menu > Settings > Data synchronization > Uncheck and then recheck “Contacts”)
6. Tell your G1 to synchronize this new “Metacontact” group (Contacts > Menu > Edit sync groups > Check “Metacontacts”)
7. On your Gmail Contact Manager, in the “Metacontact” group, press the new contact button (person with a +)
8. Enter the name you want to display when the number calls (ex: “The Smith Family” or “John and Jane Smith”)
9. Add some form of symbol in front of the contact’s name to cause it to be first alphabetically. I used a period because it takes up the least space, and then put a period at the end as well for symmetry ( .The Smith Family. )
10. Add the shared home phone number to this new contact
11. Press the save button
12. Press the “Groups” button and then click “Remove from… My Contacts”. This will prevent the contact from showing up in Android’s contact list, but because we chose to synchronize the “Metacontacts” group, it will still be in Android’s database when it does a caller ID lookup.
13. Repeat steps 7-12 for each custom home phone number contact
14. Force your G1 to synchronize contacts again (Home Screen > Menu > Settings > Data synchronization > Uncheck and then recheck “Contacts”)
15. The new custom contact name will now show up in the call logs and when the number calls, but each individual contact (ex: John and Jane) will still have the number stored, so you can call their home number by clicking their name in contacts.
It works almost perfectly for me, but there are few caveats to this method that you should be aware of:
Every time you change the combined contact (“metacontact”), it automatically readded to the “My Contacts” group and you will have to remove it
The combined contact (“metacontact”) will have the symbol you chose (in my case, a period) in front of their name, so if this bothers you, this isn’t the technique for you

apk to automatically making calls

Hey there!
I like to Streamlining my android system usage with least input required
Is there any apk or script that allow me to automatically making calls all my contact numbers without tediously always manually doing it what takes so much time, I would like option allowing it able to call each groups etc.
SO i can just pick up 40 contacts and It will keep calling each 40 numbers in linear order one by one, so it will make able to start another call from every time previous call is finished or not picked. and there is way to stop it of course then too.
scheduled phone calls by time
app on automatically calls all # in fashion of
contact1#1 call end then continue automatically to next line
contact1#2
contact2#1
contact3#1
...etc
I just like to call my friends and keep up with them, without constantly needing to manually select another contact and use my hands.
also I would like to have ability call randomly and endlessly to my contacts
-so hands-free way to automatically call to many contact
2. issue
Then I like to have a way to cut extra useless extra seconds of operator play after miscall .
3.
I need statistical presentation of contacts activity
app that show each phone numbers activity such as a total text received all time for each contacts, calls.
so I can see which phone numbers are inactive
4.
I want able to have group message which all are unique and using
if in example I am sending 50 people same group message
I want each message to be unique like, in first line i want to able to have each receiving person contact name
xx person contact name xx rest message same
5.
how can I take off "refreshing" pop up android messaging search
thanks.
