USSD service not working
I'm trying to develop an application which silently dismiss the USSD responses.
I've used the code from http://commandus.com/blog/?p=58 with minor changes. I've created the IExtendedNetworkService.aidl in the package com.android.internal.telephony and USSDDumbExtendedNetworkService inside the package com.commandus.ussd. The problem is, nothing happens after running the application (even after restarting the phone).
Can someone point out what am I doing wrong? Should I write any additional code for making it work?
IExtendedNetworkService.aidl
package com.android.internal.telephony;
/**
* Interface used to interact with extended MMI/USSD network service.
*/
interface IExtendedNetworkService {
/**
* Set a MMI/USSD command to ExtendedNetworkService for further process.
* This should be called when a MMI command is placed from panel.
* @param number the dialed MMI/USSD number.
*/
void setMmiString(String number);
/**
* return the specific string which is used to prompt MMI/USSD is running
*/
CharSequence getMmiRunningText();
/**
* Get specific message which should be displayed on pop-up dialog.
* @param text original MMI/USSD message response from framework
* @return specific user message correspond to text. null stands for no pop-up dialog need to show.
*/
CharSequence getUserMessage(CharSequence text);
/**
* Clear timeout message and pre-set MMI/USSD command
* This should be called when user cancel a pre-dialed MMI command.
*/
void clearMmiString();
}

Answer
Have you declared your broadcast receiver in your manifest file?
add inside your manifest:
<receiver android:name="com.xxx.receivers.BootReceiver">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
<service android:name="your.package.ExtendedNetworkService" />
in BootReceiver.java :
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
context.startService(new Intent(context,ExtendedNetworkService.class));
}
in ExtendedNetworkService.java :
public class ExtendedNetworkService extends Service {
IExtendedNetworkService.Stub binder = new IExtendedNetworkService.Stub() {
public void setMmiString(String number) throws RemoteException {}
public CharSequence getMmiRunningText() throws RemoteException {
return null;
}
public CharSequence getUserMessage(CharSequence text)
throws RemoteException {
Log.d(Constants.TAG, "Message : " + text);
Log.d(Constants.TAG, "getMmiRunningTest() : " + getMmiRunningText());
return null;
}
public void clearMmiString() throws RemoteException {
}
};
return false;
}
public void onCreate() {
Log.d(Constants.TAG, "ExtendedNetworkService Started..");
super.onCreate();
}
public IBinder onBind(Intent arg0) {
Log.d(Constants.TAG, "ExtendedNetworkService got binded...");
return binder;
}
}
