startActivity() is not defined where you are trying to call it from. It is a method on the Context class.
Create a constructor for your CallStateListener class that takes a Context object as a parameter and store it as a member variable. When you create a new instance of your class, you can do the following line of code instead since Service extends Context: CallStateListener mCallStateListener = new CallStateListener(this); Then, assuming your Context object is called m_context, you can do this to start your activity: m_context.startActivity(intentToLaunchNote); Hope this helps!
