@Override is a Java language feature, not an Android feature :-) maybe you need to try the hack i used to push the regular UI out of the way when the phone rings. if you hang out for a while, *then* start your UI activity, then it might work better. otherwise if you start yours first, then the system starts the regular one, the regular one wins.
be advised that this is a hack and will not work reliably. for us, it worked reasonably well on 1.5 and 1.6, but i think the door was closed with the advent of 2.0 as the mechanism doesn't work at all AFAICT on the Droid. hth >The program doesn't do anything until a phone call hangs up.
