In the present embodiment, a list of crank numbers will be preset internal to the mobile terminal, the list of crank numbers may be either transmitted to the mobile terminal by a server before step S 101, or set by the mobile terminal itself according to its own incoming calls. By monitoring the incoming call of the mobile terminal, when the number of the incoming call monitored is in the list of crank numbers of the mobile terminal, the incoming call can be intercepted and hung up in the background directly.
When there is an incoming call to the mobile terminal, the Radio Interface Layer
(RIL) of the mobile terminal will report the incoming call to the CallTracker layer. When the incoming call of the mobile terminal is monitored based on a third party application, the third party application needs to register PhoneStateListener via SDKAPI so as to monitor a PHONE_STATE_CHANGED notification sent in the CallTracker layer in the first way, i.e., via the PhoneNotifier to TelephonyRegistry. The phone state monitored changing from CALL_STATE_IDLE to CALL_STATE_ RINGING indicates that there is a call incoming at that time.
In the above process, since while there is a call incoming, the CallTracker layer will notify relative phone application to display an interface of the incoming call in the second way, i.e., via PhoneBase -> CallManager -> CallNotifier -> InCallScreen, and the notification in the second way and the first way proceed at the same time, if the incoming call of the mobile terminal is monitored based on a third party application, a situation may occur in which the third party application does not intercept and hang up the incoming call in the background until the interface of the call appears, leading to senseless power consumption by the mobile terminal.
In view of this, in the present embodiment, preferably, the incoming call monitoring function is realized via the framework layer of the operating system of the mobile terminal. Compared with the implementation in which the function is realized based on a third party application, with the framework layer, the number of the incoming call can be directly acquired according to a message reported when the RIL layer reports the incoming call to the CallTracker layer, so whether the number of the incoming call is a number in the list of crank numbers of the mobile terminal can be judged earlier, thus avoiding the situation in which the call is not hung up until the interface of the incoming call appears and saving power for the mobile terminal.
In step S I 03, acquiring a ring time of the incoming call when the number of the incoming call monitored is not in the list of crank numbers of the mobile terminal.
In the present embodiment, when acquiring the ring time via a third party application developed based on the operating system of the mobile terminal, the ring time of the incoming call is recorded by monitoring the state of incoming call by inheriting the PhoneStateListener provided by an Android system.
Likewise, the acquisition of ring time can also be realized via the framework layer of the system, in which the phone state is still acquired from the CallTracker layer. Fig. 2 shows an exemplary process for acquiring a ring time of an incoming call according to an embodiment of the disclosure, which includes the following steps.
In step S201, when the phone state of the mobile terminal changes to a call incoming state, recording the current system time as a first system time.
That is to say, when the phone state changes to CALL_STATE_RINGING, which indicates that there is a call incoming at that time, recording the current system time as a first system time, the first system time being the call incoming time.
In step S202, when the phone state of the mobile terminal changes from the call incoming state to a hang up state, recording the current system time as a second system time.
That is to say, when the phone state of the mobile terminal monitored changes from C ALL_S TATE_RINGING to CALL_STATE_IDLE, which indicates that the current incoming call is hung up, recording the current system time as a second system time, the second system time being an end-of-ring time of the incoming call. Besides, if the phone state of the mobile terminal monitored changes from CALL_STATE_RINGING to CALL_STATE_OFFHOOK, which indicates that mobile terminal answers the incoming call, the acquiring step is no longer performed.
In step S203, subtracting the first system time from the second system time to acquire the ring time of the incoming call.
In the present embodiment, by subtracting the first system time acquired in step S201 from the second system time acquired in step S202, the ring time of the incoming call is acquired.
In step S 104, reporting the number of the incoming call whose ring time is shorter than a preset time to a server, such that the server determine whether the number of the incoming call is a crank number.
In the present embodiment, a preset time (e.g., 3s) can be set for the ring time, and if the ring time of the incoming call of the mobile terminal is shorter than 3s, it can be determined that the incoming call might well be a crank call. At this time, the number of the incoming call is considered to be a suspicious number and reported to the server so as to utilize the powerful data processing capability of the server to determine whether the number of the incoming call is a crank number.
In the present embodiment, the server can gather the suspicious numbers reported by a great amount of mobile terminals communicating with the server, verify each suspicious number according to the number of times that the suspicious number is reported by the mobile terminal or according to a statistical result of a third party for data gathering and statistics, and determine whether the suspicious number is indeed a crank number. Specific methods for determining a crank number at the server side is not intended to limit the present disclosure herein.
Fig. 3 shows an exemplary process for reporting the number of an incoming call to the server according to an embodiment of the disclosure, which includes the following steps.
In step S301, determining whether the mobile terminal and the server are in a communicable state at present.
In the present embodiment, the mobile terminal can communicate with the server via a plurality of communication standards, such as: Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), Code Division Multiple Access -2000 (CDMA-2000), Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA), etc, and make communications based on a communication network corresponding to the above communication standard.
Although some specific communication standards between the mobile terminal and the server are listed in detail as above, those skilled in the art will appreciate that such listing is only for purpose of illustration and not intended to limit implementations of the present disclosure.
In the present embodiment, the mobile terminal can select to connect to or disconnect from the server by its settings; thus, before a suspicious number is reported, it needs to be determined whether the mobile terminal and the server are in a communicable state in which connection has been established at present.
In step S302, when the mobile terminal and the server are not in a communicable state at present, storing the number of the incoming call whose ring time is shorter than the preset time in a temporary list.
When it is determined that the mobile terminal and the server are not in a communicable state at present, at which time the mobile terminal is unable to report a suspicious number to the server, the number of the incoming call whose ring time is shorter than the preset time as determined is temporarily stored in a temporary list of the mobile terminal.
In step S303, when the mobile terminal and the server are in a communicable state at present, reporting the number of the incoming call stored in the temporary list to the server.
When the mobile terminal and the server are in a communicable state at present, or when the mobile terminal and the server are recovered from a disconnection state to a connection state, one or more suspicious numbers temporarily stored in the temporary list can be reported to the server all at once, and the suspicious numbers in the temporary list can be emptied after reported.
In specific implementations, a service may be turned on in the contact module of the mobile terminal, which service can be started with the start of the contact module, and thus, can be automatically started with the restart of the contact module if a system-related process is terminated. With the service, the communication state of the mobile terminal with the server can be monitored at any time, so as to realize relative steps shown in Figure 3.
In step S105, receiving a crank number determined by the server.
In step S 106, adding the crank number received to the list of crank numbers of the mobile terminal.
In the present embodiment, based on the data reported by a great amount of mobile terminals, the server determines the crank number(s) which is verified or based on specific data analysis from the suspicious numbers reported by a great amount of mobile terminals using its powerful data statistical analysis function, and sends the crank number(s) determined to respective mobile terminals. Therefore, the mobile terminal receives the crank number(s) determined by the server and adds the crank number(s) not in the local list of crank numbers of the mobile terminal yet to the local list, thus realizing further perfection of the data in the list of crank numbers.
Preferably, as an embodiment of the present disclosure, the mobile terminal can receive the crank number(s) determined by the server at regular intervals, so as to avoid frequent communication with the server and save the power consumption of the mobile terminal effectively.
In the embodiment of the disclosure, the incoming call of the mobile terminal is analyzed, a suspicious number obtained from the analysis is reported to the server automatically so as to utilize the powerful data processing capability of the server to determine whether the suspicious number is a crank number; meanwhile, the mobile terminal receives a list of crank numbers determined by the server after statistically analyzing the suspicious numbers automatically reported by a great amount of mobile terminals, and uses the list of crank numbers to intercept and hang up a crank call, thereby effectively increasing the accuracy of intercepting and hanging up crank calls.
It is important to note that when the present embodiment is implemented based on the framework layer of the system, a third party application conflicting problem in the mobile terminal can be prevented effectively. For example, when plural pieces of security software exist on the mobile terminal simultaneously, if the blacklist of a respective security software is different from each other (e.g., number N is in the blacklist of security software A but not in the blacklist of security software B), a case may occur in which the phone is finally connected. However, by uniformly realizing the interception of crank calls via the framework layer of the system, the above conflicting problem may be prevented effectively.
