Question

I was was wondering is there any possible way to call operators commands directly from application ? some codes like :

*149*124# 

because I can’t call this command

   UIDevice *device = [UIDevice currentDevice];
    if ([[device model] isEqualToString:@"iPhone"] ) {
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"tel:*149*124# "]]];
    }

is there any API public or non-public for this issue ?

Answer 1

Try changing your code to this:

NSURL *URL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"tel:*149*124#"];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:URL])
{
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:URL];
}

Note that this will NOT work on the simulator, or an iPod / iPad, as they have no phone application.
