Phone call in Phonegap on Blackberry

626 views Asked by At

Phone links like <a href="tel:1-408-555-5555">1-408-555-5555</a> are used in my app. On Blackberry 10 device, they work fine in browser. But when I wrap my app into Phonegap, the doesn't, just nothing happens. How do I dial a phone number from a phonegap app on Blackberry? My device is Blackberry Z10, if this matters.

Edit: Actually I've missed from my code that links have empty href href="#" and then phone dial fires from javascript. I've changed this to direct links and dial works.

you can also create a function like this. worst case.

function callSomeone(number){
    if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().match(/android/)) {
        document.location.href = 'tel:'+number;
    } else if (navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().match(/iphone/) || navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().match(/ipad/)) {
        window.plugins.phoneDialer.dial(number);
    }
}
