Connection

public abstract class Connection
extends Conferenceable

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.telecom.Conferenceable
     ↳ android.telecom.Connection


Represents a phone call or connection to a remote endpoint that carries voice and/or video traffic.

Implementations create a custom subclass of Connection and return it to the framework as the return value of ConnectionService#onCreateIncomingConnection(PhoneAccountHandle, ConnectionRequest) or ConnectionService#onCreateOutgoingConnection(PhoneAccountHandle, ConnectionRequest). Implementations are then responsible for updating the state of the Connection, and must call destroy() to signal to the framework that the Connection is no longer used and associated resources may be recovered.

Subclasses of Connection override the on* methods to provide the the ConnectionService's implementation of calling functionality. The on* methods are called by Telecom to inform an instance of a Connection of actions specific to that Connection instance.

Basic call support requires overriding the following methods: onAnswer(), onDisconnect(), onReject(), onAbort()

Where a Connection has CAPABILITY_SUPPORT_HOLD, the onHold() and onUnhold() methods should be overridden to provide hold support for the Connection.

Where a Connection supports a variation of video calling (e.g. the CAPABILITY_SUPPORTS_VT_* capability bits), onAnswer(int) should be overridden to support answering a call as a video call.

Where a Connection has PROPERTY_IS_EXTERNAL_CALL and CAPABILITY_CAN_PULL_CALL, onPullExternalCall() should be overridden to provide support for pulling the external call.

Where a Connection supports conference calling onSeparate() should be overridden.

There are a number of other on* methods which a Connection can choose to implement, depending on whether it is concerned with the associated calls from Telecom. If, for example, call events from a InCallService are handled, onCallEvent(java.lang.String, android.os.Bundle) should be overridden. Another example is onExtrasChanged(android.os.Bundle), which should be overridden if the Connection wishes to make use of extra information provided via the Call#putExtras(Bundle) and Call#removeExtras(String...) methods.

Notifies this Connection that its ConnectionService is responsible for displaying its incoming call user interface for the Connection.

Will only be called for incoming calls added via a self-managed ConnectionService (see PhoneAccount#CAPABILITY_SELF_MANAGED), where the ConnectionService should show its own incoming call user interface.

Where there are ongoing calls in other self-managed ConnectionServices, or in a regular ConnectionService, and it is not possible to hold these other calls, the Telecom framework will display its own incoming call user interface to allow the user to choose whether to answer the new incoming call and disconnect other ongoing calls, or to reject the new incoming call.

You should trigger the display of the incoming call user interface for your application by showing a Notification with a full-screen Intent specified. In your application code, you should create a NotificationChannel for incoming call notifications from your app:


 NotificationChannel channel = new NotificationChannel(YOUR_CHANNEL_ID, "Incoming Calls",
          NotificationManager.IMPORTANCE_MAX);
 // other channel setup stuff goes here.

 // We'll use the default system ringtone for our incoming call notification channel.  You can
 // use your own audio resource here.
 Uri ringtoneUri = RingtoneManager.getDefaultUri(RingtoneManager.TYPE_RINGTONE);
 channel.setSound(ringtoneUri, new AudioAttributes.Builder()
          // Setting the AudioAttributes is important as it identifies the purpose of your
          // notification sound.
          .setUsage(AudioAttributes.USAGE_NOTIFICATION_RINGTONE)
          .setContentType(AudioAttributes.CONTENT_TYPE_SONIFICATION)
      .build());

 NotificationManager mgr = getSystemService(NotificationManager.class);
 mgr.createNotificationChannel(channel);
 
When it comes time to post a notification for your incoming call, ensure it uses your incoming call NotificationChannel.

     // Create an intent which triggers your fullscreen incoming call user interface.
     Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
     intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_USER_ACTION | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
     intent.setClass(context, YourIncomingCallActivity.class);
     PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 1, intent, 0);

     // Build the notification as an ongoing high priority item; this ensures it will show as
     // a heads up notification which slides down over top of the current content.
     final Notification.Builder builder = new Notification.Builder(context);
     builder.setOngoing(true);
     builder.setPriority(Notification.PRIORITY_HIGH);

     // Set notification content intent to take user to fullscreen UI if user taps on the
     // notification body.
     builder.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);
     // Set full screen intent to trigger display of the fullscreen UI when the notification
     // manager deems it appropriate.
     builder.setFullScreenIntent(pendingIntent, true);

     // Setup notification content.
     builder.setSmallIcon( yourIconResourceId );
     builder.setContentTitle("Your notification title");
     builder.setContentText("Your notification content.");

     // Set notification as insistent to cause your ringtone to loop.
     Notification notification = builder.build();
     notification.flags |= Notification.FLAG_INSISTENT;

     // Use builder.addAction(..) to add buttons to answer or reject the call.
     NotificationManager notificationManager = mContext.getSystemService(
         NotificationManager.class);
     notificationManager.notify(YOUR_CHANNEL_ID, YOUR_TAG, YOUR_ID, notification);
 

onSilence

public void onSilence ()

Notifies this Connection of a request to silence the ringer.

The ringer may be silenced by any of the following methods:

Self-managed ConnectionService implementations should override this method in their Connection implementation and implement logic to silence their app's ringtone. If your app set the ringtone as part of the incoming call Notification (see onShowIncomingCallUi()), it should re-post the notification now, except call Notification.Builder.setOnlyAlertOnce(boolean) with true. This will ensure the ringtone sound associated with your NotificationChannel stops playing.

onStartRtt

public void onStartRtt (Connection.RttTextStream rttTextStream)

Notifies this Connection that the user has requested an RTT session. The connection service should call sendRttInitiationSuccess() or sendRttInitiationFailure(int) to inform Telecom of the success or failure of the request, respectively.

requestBluetoothAudio

public void requestBluetoothAudio (BluetoothDevice bluetoothDevice)

Request audio routing to a specific bluetooth device. Calling this method may result in the device routing audio to a different bluetooth device than the one specified if the bluetooth stack is unable to route audio to the requested device. A list of available devices can be obtained via CallAudioState#getSupportedBluetoothDevices()

Used by self-managed ConnectionServices which wish to use bluetooth audio for a self-managed Connection (see PhoneAccount#CAPABILITY_SELF_MANAGED.)

See also InCallService#requestBluetoothAudio(BluetoothDevice)

Parameters

sendConnectionEvent

public void sendConnectionEvent (String event, 
                Bundle extras)

Sends an event associated with this Connection with associated event extras to the InCallService.

Connection events are used to communicate point in time information from a ConnectionService to a InCallService implementations. An example of a custom connection event includes notifying the UI when a WIFI call has been handed over to LTE, which the InCall UI might use to inform the user that billing charges may apply. The Android Telephony framework will send the EVENT_CALL_MERGE_FAILED connection event when a call to Call#mergeConference() has failed to complete successfully. A connection event could also be used to trigger UI in the InCallService which prompts the user to make a choice (e.g. whether they want to incur roaming costs for making a call), which is communicated back via Call#sendCallEvent(String, Bundle).

Events are exposed to InCallService implementations via Call.Callback#onConnectionEvent(Call, String, Bundle).

No assumptions should be made as to how an In-Call UI or service will handle these events. The ConnectionService must assume that the In-Call UI could even chose to ignore some events altogether.

Events should be fully qualified (e.g. com.example.event.MY_EVENT) to avoid conflicts between ConnectionService implementations. Further, custom ConnectionService implementations shall not re-purpose events in the android.* namespace, nor shall they define new event types in this namespace. When defining a custom event type, ensure the contents of the extras Bundle is clearly defined. Extra keys for this bundle should be named similar to the event type (e.g. com.example.extra.MY_EXTRA).

When defining events and the associated extras, it is important to keep their behavior consistent when the associated ConnectionService is updated. Support for deprecated events/extras should me maintained to ensure backwards compatibility with older InCallService implementations which were built to support the older behavior.

Parameters
event String: The connection event.

extras Bundle: Optional bundle containing extra information associated with the event.
