Monitor line status without CTelephony

[juannoguera]

I am using CTelephony::TCallStatusV1 to monitor the state of the voice call line. I found out that the sequences of states for an outgoing call (the case I am interested now) is different for different operators.
In Vodafone Spain, when the user makes a call (establishment, active and disconnection), the app receives the following notification sequence via CTelephony:

EStatusDialling -> EStatusConnecting -> EStatusConnected -> EStatusDisconnecting -> EStatusIdle

In Vodafone UK, the sequence is:

EStatusDialling -> EStatusConnecting -> EStatusDisconnecting -> EStatusIdle

I need to detect when the remote party has answered (call connected). For Vodafone Spain, it works OK (EStatusConnected is notified), but for UK it does not.

I would like to know if there is some other method, more reliable than CTelephony::TCallStatusV1 to follow up the state of a call. Help from experts would be much appreciated.

hi ,

U can use class "RTelServer" plus subsession classes to implement three fundamental abstractions: phones, lines and calls.

go this link for callhandling.

Hi,

Just confirm once again from uk test team whether they have picked the call it not? its never happened with my application but I don't which connection they have used.

I thought that RTelServer was deprecated. Being CTelephony the API we are supposed to use now.

I have seen than in UK "EStatusConnecting " is notified by the OS when the call is actually connected. This is, the app gets EStatusConnecting when in Spain it gets EStatusConnected. For this app, it is not a problem, but it would be for an app that is designed to work globally.

HI,

CTelephony is implemented using the etelmm , so RTelServer is still supported.
You can use both CTelephony and Etelmm.
but make sure you handle both effectively.
