try this.use Broadcast Receivers to listen outgoing call number:

Manifest.xml

uses-permission android:name="android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS"/>


<receiver android:name=".OutgoingCallReceiver"> 
<intent-filter> 
<action android:name="android.intent.action.NEW_OUTGOING_CALL"/>
</intent-filter> 
</receiver>

OutgoingCallReceiver.java

public class OutgoingCallReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        Bundle bundle = intent.getExtras();
        if (null == bundle)
            return;
        // outgoingNumber=intent.getStringExtra(Intent.ACTION_NEW_OUTGOING_CALL);
        String phoneNubmer = intent.getStringExtra(Intent.EXTRA_PHONE_NUMBER);
       //START APPLICATION HERE
    }
}
