[android-developers] Re: start your application on camera button

2008-12-10 Thread shimo...@gmail.com 

Hi,

So are you saying it cant be done ?

There is no way I make my app launch when the user presses the CALL
button ?

Only access to 3rd party is by tapping their icon on the screen ?

Or can I pretent to be the built-in app ?

TIA

The call button starts an activity, it doesn't send a broadcast, as
described in the doc.  (Yes this is inconsistent with the camera button and

Thank you, Ludwig! That answers my question, as I was considering
adding the code to my app's manifest as well. Much appreciated.
