Question

Windows phone7 does not support phase 2 communication using USSD. Is there a way to intercept an outgoing USSD request on a Windows Phone 7 device in order to route to an application to handle the request instead?

Was it helpful?

Solution

The APIs for such low level operations --- even more so when they are related to the cellular interface --- are not available.

If we take into account that more innocent things are not allowed in WP7, I think that the USSD interception has little chance of being available in the future...

OTHER TIPS

Only Microsoft Partners or OEMs have access to native API which is basically something much like Windows CE/Windows Mobile. There are functions that can receive USSD but none that can prevent default handling of the messages (namely: displaying popup with the message).
