How to include my application as a dialing option when calling from the addressbook?

Question

I need to include additional dialing options in the menu appearing after pressing \"Call\" over a contact (Screenshot).

I\'m trying to do it with action-filters

Answer 1

I'd start here: using android dialer in 3rd party app

And look through the Android dialer source to see what intents it uses

Then, check the official Intent list:

Which leads me to guess you need to at least include:

• VIEW
• DIAL
• CALL

in category DEFAULT

Answer 2

I think the Intent you're looking for is android.intent.action.CALL_PRIVILEGED. Have a look at the complete Skype manifest.
