How to pick up a call by adb

Question

Can I pick up a call by any adb command? I know that you can dial a number by "adb shell service call phone 2 s16 "[phone]".

Can phone service do pick-up call or can I send some adb command to manipulate activity?

much appreciated

Solution 1

adb shell input keyevent KEYCODE_CALL

Solution 2

To call TelephonyManager.answerRingingCall() use adb shell service call phone 5 command.

Solution 3

That works for me:

 adb shell input keyevent 5

Fantastic!!! What about hitting a button in that call would it be as previously stated?

Also would this require root access if I was using tasker?

@RobertJ yes this requires root access.
