Dialing Number with Extension is Not Working in some device like Nexus 4

Question

I am trying to dial the number with extension:

Uri number = Uri.parse("tel:0008001009009,1");
Intent callIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL,number);
startActivity(callIntent);

This is working in some devices, but for some devices like Nexus 4 its not working. Its not taking the extension number.

PhoneNumberUtils.WAIT i.e " ; " is working , but in this case input is required from user.

PhoneNumberUtils.PAUSE i.e " , " is for Automatic dialing the extension.

I want to dial the extension automatically. Any solution ?

Answer 1

Try sending ACTION_DIAL intent to check what is the number being displayed on other devices.

Else append with + on the number and invoke ACTION_DIAL or ACTION_CALL.
