Android How to make a call that includes "#" or "p" in the dial?

Question

I need to make calls in my Android app that includes "#" or "p" in the dial.

If I use the next code:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse("tel:629941945#22412"));
    startActivity(intent);

It makes the call to the number 629941945 without the # and 22412.

And if I use the next code:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse("tel:629941945p22412"));
    startActivity(intent);

It makes the call without the "p": 62994194522412.

There is a form that I can solve it?

Answer 1

Intent shortcutIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse("tel:"+Uri.encode("*111*2#")));
startActivity(shortcutIntent);

Answer 2

Try tel:629941945%2322412 instead of tel:629941945#22412

%23 will be replaced with #
