How to know when the call Activity in android is finished

I have the following code :

public static void dialNumber(Context context, String phoneNumber)
{
    _logger.info("Calling " + phoneNumber);    
    Intent intent = new Intent(ACTION_CALL, Uri.fromParts("tel", phoneNumber, null));

    context.startActivity(intent);
}

This starts a call to the given phoneNumber. I want to put some logic when this call finishes. how can i do that. How to know if the call finishes. I tried using startActivityForResult, but i cant call this function on a Context.

Thanks

check BroadcastReceiver receiver and system's broadcast messages. This kind of events (starting call, ending call, etc) are usually sent by broadcast message. And, if you have receiver, you can get and do whatever you want. for instance, android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE might work for you. http://androidexample.com/Introduction_To_Broadcast_Receiver_Basics/index.php?view=article_discription&aid=60&aaid=85

I think you get get information that you want through intent.getExtras

    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {

            intent.getExtras().getString(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE);
            String stateStr = intent.getExtras().getString(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE);
            String number = intent.getExtras().getString(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_INCOMING_NUMBER);
            int state = 0;
            if(stateStr.equals(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE_IDLE)){
                state = TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_IDLE;
            }
            else if(stateStr.equals(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE_OFFHOOK)){
                state = TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK;
            }
            else if(stateStr.equals(TelephonyManager.EXTRA_STATE_RINGING)){
                state = TelephonyManager.CALL_STATE_RINGING;
            }

    }

Maybe this is worth checking out. You can use startActivityForResult to get some kinda feedback from a started activity once it is done doing things.
