[RESOLVED] How can I get missed calls numbers ( Windows Mobile )

[Ashraf Alshahawy]

Hey all ....

I need to know how to get the Missed Calls numbers in windows mobiles .
(Calls History)

I tried to use : -

SystemState.PhoneMissedCalls

But it only returns the number of Missed Calls .


I heared about PhoneOpenCallLog , but I don't know how to use it , is there
any example that uses this function.


I'm using Visual Studio 2008 pro , Visual Basic



Many thanks in advance , And I hope I'm asking my question in the right section.

HI,

Many thanks petevick for your help ,

I tried this code before , but I couldn't figure out how to use it , and today I gave it
another shot , but I ended up to the same result , I don't know how to use the Phone
class into my program .

If you can give me a start , It will be appreciated.


By the way , I'm trying to make a (Missed calls reminder) , so I need to read the log
entries .

Many thanks in advance.

I used 3rd party library which solved the problem of getting the MissedCall Numbers

( CECallLog ) , some other people use ( OpenNetCF ) library ..... Both of them are free.

Many thanks petevick for your help.

Does your application display missed calls even if they were already deleted in the call history?

Hi rothj0hn ....

If the user " Dismissed " the missed call , or cleared the call history , the function return 0 (Zero) if you

use PhoneMissedCalls (It returns the number of missed calls)

and return False if you use PhoneMissedCall ( It informs you if you have new missed call or not , And ofcourse as long as you have missed call in your Call Log , it alawys returns True ).

I hope that helps.

i just wondering if there is possibility to retrieve all calls even if they have been deleted in the call history.

Thanks for the INFO.
