To block a call u have to use java reflections and access hidden file of android.telephony package. this file (ITelephony.java) has a function called endcall() which uses permissions. this is not advised by google team as recieving and ending calls in a programmatic way is invasion of user privacy.

make sure you have the permission android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE set up.
