I don't think you need any permission to initial a phone call using the built in Activity. As long as you go through the built in activity and included user interface, no perms required. The CALL_PHONE permission is for making a call on your own without using the built in Activity, as I understand it (if you want to write your own dialer, or otherwise not go through the built in dialer).
(And the built in Activity probably HAS the CALL_PHONE permission, so it's not your app that needs the permission if you are handing off, etc.) On Jan 30, 7:07 am, Sohail <sohail.k...@imsciences.edu.pk> wrote: > Hi, > > I just created a simple application, that starts the Dial Activity and > place a call.
