i did many research about ussd but I can't read USSD respone and how can I prevent ussd dialog like this application.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iba.ussdchecker&hl=en

i install this https://github.com/alaasalman/ussdinterceptor restart my phone (S2 android 4.0.3), send ussd code but nothing happen, someone tell me that I have to read the log, but how can i do that.

i try these code to read USSD from log

}

and output is something like this:

Solution

  • It is possible using accessibility service. First create a service class:

    public class USSDService extends AccessibilityService {
    
        public static String TAG = USSDService.class.getSimpleName();
    
        @Override
        public void onAccessibilityEvent(AccessibilityEvent event) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onAccessibilityEvent");
    
            AccessibilityNodeInfo source = event.getSource();
            /* if (event.getEventType() == AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_STATE_CHANGED && !event.getClassName().equals("android.app.AlertDialog")) { // android.app.AlertDialog is the standard but not for all phones  */
            if (event.getEventType() == AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_STATE_CHANGED && !String.valueOf(event.getClassName()).contains("AlertDialog")) {
                return;
            }
            if(event.getEventType() == AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_CONTENT_CHANGED && (source == null || !source.getClassName().equals("android.widget.TextView"))) {
                return;
            }
            if(event.getEventType() == AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_CONTENT_CHANGED && TextUtils.isEmpty(source.getText())) {
                return;
            }
    
            List<CharSequence> eventText;
    
            if(event.getEventType() == AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_STATE_CHANGED) {
                eventText = event.getText();
            } else {
                eventText = Collections.singletonList(source.getText());
            }
    
            String text = processUSSDText(eventText);
    
            if( TextUtils.isEmpty(text) ) return;
    
            // Close dialog
            performGlobalAction(GLOBAL_ACTION_BACK); // This works on 4.1+ only
    
            Log.d(TAG, text);
            // Handle USSD response here
    
        }
    
        private String processUSSDText(List<CharSequence> eventText) {
            for (CharSequence s : eventText) {
                String text = String.valueOf(s);
                // Return text if text is the expected ussd response
                if( true ) {
                    return text;
                }
            }
            return null;
        }
    
        @Override
        public void onInterrupt() {
        }
    
        @Override
        protected void onServiceConnected() {
            super.onServiceConnected();
            Log.d(TAG, "onServiceConnected");
            AccessibilityServiceInfo info = new AccessibilityServiceInfo();
            info.flags = AccessibilityServiceInfo.DEFAULT;
            info.packageNames = new String[]{"com.android.phone"};
            info.eventTypes = AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_STATE_CHANGED | AccessibilityEvent.TYPE_WINDOW_CONTENT_CHANGED;
            info.feedbackType = AccessibilityServiceInfo.FEEDBACK_GENERIC;
            setServiceInfo(info);
        }
    }
    

    Declare it in Android manifest

    <service android:name=".USSDService"
        android:permission="android.permission.BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.accessibilityservice.AccessibilityService" />
            </intent-filter>
            <meta-data android:name="android.accessibilityservice"
                android:resource="@xml/ussd_service" />
     </service>
    

    Create a xml file that describes the accessibility service called ussd_service

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <accessibility-service xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:accessibilityEventTypes="typeWindowStateChanged|typeWindowContentChanged"
    android:accessibilityFeedbackType="feedbackGeneric"
    android:accessibilityFlags="flagDefault"
    android:canRetrieveWindowContent="true"
    android:description="@string/accessibility_service_description"
    android:notificationTimeout="0"
    android:packageNames="com.android.phone" />
    

    That's it. Once app is installed, you have to enable the service in Accessibility Settings (Setting->Accessibility Setting -> YourAppName).
