Make Call in Android Application using default call application

Question

I am using following code to make a call from my android application:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);                 
intent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:9898989898"));
startActivity(intent);

This opens Intent Chooser if Skype is installed in phone. What i want is it should directly make call from default call application.

How can I achieve this?

Answer 1

Use intent.setPackage("com.android.phone");

Like

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL);  
intent.setPackage("com.android.phone");               
intent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:9898989898"));
startActivity(intent);

But better is to let the user to choose.
