Plz i am new to android.
I am having prob trying to initiate this as it removes the # from the string.
It will only dial *556.
try { String uri = "tel: *556#";
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse(uri));
startActivity(intent);
} catch (Exception e) { Log.e("Exception", e.getMessage()); }
all comments are welcomed

private void call() {

Intent phoneIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL);
phoneIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:05966667888" ));
try{
startActivity(intent);
}

D prob is dat it omites d # string

private void call() {
String encodedHarsh = "*" +
"556" + Uri.encode("#" );
startActivity(new Intent
("android.intent.action.CALL",
Uri.parse("tel:" +
encodedHarsh)));

}

It is because it is a USSD number

Still didnt work bro.

wat's the error

No error bro, just still omits d #

@Override
public void onClick( ) {
// TODO Auto-
generated method stub

String ussd = "*556*"
+ Uri.encode("#" ) ;
startActivity(new Intent
(Intent.ACTION_CALL,
Uri.parse("tel:" +
ussd)));

Finally works. thanks sir

u are welcome .

*555# is lame
try *123# good and better and put MTN logos in the background and your icon .
