[android-developers] Can i use a BroadcastReceiver or Service to retrieve an Incoming call

2011-02-01 Thread Christian Chabtini
I would like to fist detect an incoming call with all the info and
then retrieve the audio at will

For instance, if the user received a call, i would like to obtain the
phone number and a timestamp then i would get the audio and do some
parsing in order to achieve a speech-to-text system.
I would like to accomplish that while the user is on the phone.
I need the service or BroadcastReceiver to be active while the user is
on the phone and sends the audio back to the server...

I read somewhere that i should do this by creating a service in the
backgound? is that possible to do? or BroadcastReceiver is the way to
go ?
Are any of my suggested approaches would work for such project ?
I am still new to ANDROID so please provide as many details as
possible.

Your Help is greatly appreciated.


Thank you,

You have no access to the in-call audio in Android, sorry.
