I can't see any mistakes with the XML excerpt that you posted. However, there might be an error in the tag android:name. This should be a fully qualified class name (for example com.example.project.ReportReceiver). However, as a shorthand, if the first character of the name is a period (for example, .ReportReceiver), it is appended to the package name specified in the <manifest> element. Using that shortcut, your package name should be something like package="com.example.project". In your case, you should check the whole package name before .IncomingCallReciever.


EDIT:

Check for problems here particularly:

<intent-filter android:priority="1">
    actionandroid:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL" />

Remove the > after android:priority="1" - that's a syntax problem, it should work once you correct that.

public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
mContext = context;
mIntent = intent;
TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
int events = PhoneStateListener.LISTEN_CALL_STATE;
tm.listen(phoneStateListener, events);
}
