public class BlockOutgoing extends BroadcastReceiver {

String number;
@SuppressLint("WrongConstant")
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent)
{
    // Log.d("12280", "asdasNumber is-->> " + number);
    number = intent.getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER);
    setResultData(null);
    Toast.makeText(context, "Outgoing Call Blocked" , 5000).show();

}

}

   <receiver
        android:name=".BlockOutgoing"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >

You can block the outgoing call using the setResultData(null) function in the onReceive method of the Broaadcast receiver.

public class BlockOutgoing extends BroadcastReceiver
{
    String number;
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) 
    {
        Log.d("12280", "asdasNumber is-->> " + number);
        number = intent.getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER);
        setResultData(null);
        Toast.makeText(context, "Outgoing Call Blocked" , 5000).show();

    }
}

In the manifest file, you need to register the receiver like this,

<receiver
            android:name=".BlockOutgoing"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter android:priority="1">

<action android:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" />

            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>

Also define the permission to intercept the outgoing call,

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS" />
