# Detect eSIMs and SIM cards

## Detecting cards

Android devices with SIM cards and eSIMs use the following IDs in the telephony APIs, including \[\`TelephonyManager\`\](/reference/android/telephony/TelephonyManager) and \[\`SubscriptionManager\`\](/reference/android/telephony/SubscriptionManager): \* Subscription ID: unique ID for a mobile subscription. \* Logical slot index or ID: unique index referring to a logical SIM slot. Logical slot IDs start at 0 and go up depending on the number of supported active slots on a device. For example, a dual-SIM device typically has slot 0 and slot 1. If a device has multiple physical slots but only supports one active slot, it will have only the logical slot ID 0. \* Physical slot index or ID: unique index referring to a physical SIM slot. Physical slot IDs start at 0 and go up depending on the number of physical slots on the device. This differs from the number of logical slots a device has, which corresponds to the number of active slots a device is capable of using. For example, a device which switches between dual-SIM and single-SIM mode may always have two physical slots, but in single-SIM mode it will have only one logical slot. \* Card ID: unique ID used to identify a UiccCard. !\[A diagram of how IDs are used in a case with two logical slots and three physical slots\](/images/guide/topics/connectivity/tel-ids.png) In the above diagram: \* The device has two logical slots. \* In physical slot 0 there is a physical UICC card with an active profile. \* In physical slot 2 is an eUICC with an active profile. \* Physical slot 1 is not currently in use. !\[A diagram of how IDs are used in a case with three logical slots and two physical slots\](/images/guide/topics/connectivity/tel-ids-2.png) In the above diagram: \* The device has three logical slots. \* In physical slot 0 there is a physical UICC card with an active profile. \* In physical slot 1 is an eUICC that has two downloaded profiles, both active using MEP (Multiple Enabled Profiles).

## Session initiation protocol overview

Android provides an API that supports the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). This lets you add SIP-based internet telephony features to your applications. Android includes a full SIP protocol stack and integrated call management services that let applications easily set up outgoing and incoming voice calls, without having to manage sessions, transport-level communication, or audio record or playback directly.

Here are examples of the types of applications that might use the SIP API:

- Video conferencing
- Instant messaging

## Requirements and limitations

Here are the requirements for developing a SIP application:

- You must have a mobile device that is running Android 2.3 or higher.
- SIP runs over a wireless data connection, so your device must have a data connection (with a mobile data service or Wi-Fi). This means that you can't test on AVD---you can only test on a physical device. For details, see[Testing SIP applications](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/sip#testing).
- Each participant in the application's communication session must have a SIP account. There are many different SIP providers that offer SIP accounts.

**Note:** The`android.net.sip`library doesn't support video calls. If you want to implement VOIP calling using a SIP stack such as`android.net.sip`, look at one of the many modern open source alternatives as the basis for any VOIP calling implementation. Alternatively, you can implement the[`ConnectionService`](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telecom/ConnectionService)API to provide a tight integration of these calls into the device's Dialer app.

## SIP API classes and interfaces

Here is a summary of the classes and one interface (`SipRegistrationListener`) that are included in the Android SIP API:

|                                              Class/Interface                                               |                                                                    Description                                                                     |

## Creating manifest

If you are developing an application that uses the SIP API, remember that the feature is supported only on Android 2.3 (API level 9) and higher versions of the platform. Also, among devices running Android 2.3 (API level 9) or higher, not all devices will offer SIP support.

To use SIP, add the following permissions to your application's manifest:

- `android.permission.USE_SIP`
- `android.permission.INTERNET`

To ensure that your application can only be installed on devices that are capable of supporting SIP, add the following to your application's manifest:  

```xml
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" />
```

This indicates that your application requires Android 2.3 or higher. For more information, see[API Levels](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element#ApiLevels)and the documentation for the[<uses-sdk>](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element)element.

To control how your application is filtered from devices that do not support SIP (for example, on Google Play), add the following to your application's manifest:  

```xml
<uses-feature android:name="android.software.sip.voip" />
```

This states that your application uses the SIP API. The declaration should include an`android:required`attribute that indicates whether you want the application to be filtered from devices that do not offer SIP support. Other`<uses-feature>`declarations may also be needed, depending on your implementation. For more information, see the documentation for the[<uses-feature>](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element)element.

If your application is designed to receive calls, you must also define a receiver ([BroadcastReceiver](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver)subclass) in the application's manifest:  

```xml
<receiver android:name=".IncomingCallReceiver" android:label="Call Receiver" />
```

Here are excerpts from the**SipDemo**manifest:  

```xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
          package="com.example.android.sip">
  ...
     <receiver android:name=".IncomingCallReceiver" android:label="Call Receiver" />
  ...
  <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="9" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.USE_SIP" />
  <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
  ...
  <uses-feature android:name="android.software.sip.voip" android:required="true" />
  <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.wifi" android:required="true" />
  <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.microphone" android:required="true" />
</manifest>
```

## Creating SipManager

To use the SIP API, your application must create a[SipManager](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipManager)object. The[SipManager](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipManager)takes care of the following in your application:

- Initiating SIP sessions.
- Initiating and receiving calls.
- Registering and unregistering with a SIP provider.
- Verifying session connectivity.

You instantiate a new[SipManager](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipManager)as follows:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
val sipManager: SipManager? by lazy(LazyThreadSafetyMode.NONE) {
    SipManager.newInstance(this)
}
```

### Java

```java
public SipManager sipManager = null;
...
if (sipManager == null) {
    sipManager = SipManager.newInstance(this);
}
```

## Registering with a SIP Server

A typical Android SIP application involves one or more users, each of whom has a SIP account. In an Android SIP application, each SIP account is represented by a[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)object.

A[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)defines a SIP profile, including a SIP account, and domain and server information. The profile associated with the SIP account on the device running the application is called the*local profile* . The profile that the session is connected to is called the*peer profile* . When your SIP application logs into the SIP server with the local[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile), this effectively registers the device as the location to send SIP calls to for your SIP address.

This section shows how to create a[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile), register it with a SIP server, and track registration events.

You create a[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)object as follows:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
private var sipProfile: SipProfile? = null
...

val builder = SipProfile.Builder(username, domain)
        .setPassword(password)
sipProfile = builder.build()
```

### Java

```java
public SipProfile sipProfile = null;
...

SipProfile.Builder builder = new SipProfile.Builder(username, domain);
builder.setPassword(password);
sipProfile = builder.build();
```

The following code excerpt opens the local profile for making calls and/or receiving generic SIP calls. The caller can make subsequent calls through`mSipManager.makeAudioCall`. This excerpt also sets the action`android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL`, which will be used by an intent filter when the device receives a call (see[Setting up an intent filter to receive calls](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/sip#intent_filter)). This is the registration step:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
val intent = Intent("android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL")
val pendingIntent: PendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, Intent.FILL_IN_DATA)
sipManager?.open(sipProfile, pendingIntent, null)
```

### Java

```java
Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction("android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL");
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, Intent.FILL_IN_DATA);
sipManager.open(sipProfile, pendingIntent, null);
```

Finally, this code sets a`SipRegistrationListener`on the[SipManager](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipManager). This tracks whether the[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)was successfully registered with your SIP service provider:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
sipManager?.setRegistrationListener(sipProfile?.uriString, object : SipRegistrationListener {

    override fun onRegistering(localProfileUri: String) {
        updateStatus("Registering with SIP Server...")
    }

    override fun onRegistrationDone(localProfileUri: String, expiryTime: Long) {
        updateStatus("Ready")
    }

    override fun onRegistrationFailed(
            localProfileUri: String,
            errorCode: Int,
            errorMessage: String
    ) {
        updateStatus("Registration failed. Please check settings.")
    }
})
```

### Java

```java
sipManager.setRegistrationListener(sipProfile.getUriString(), new SipRegistrationListener() {

    public void onRegistering(String localProfileUri) {
        updateStatus("Registering with SIP Server...");
    }

    public void onRegistrationDone(String localProfileUri, long expiryTime) {
        updateStatus("Ready");
    }

    public void onRegistrationFailed(String localProfileUri, int errorCode,
        String errorMessage) {
        updateStatus("Registration failed.  Please check settings.");
    }
}
```

When your application is done using a profile, it should close it to free associated objects into memory and unregister the device from the server. For example:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
fun closeLocalProfile() {
    try {
        sipManager?.close(sipProfile?.uriString)
    } catch (ee: Exception) {
        Log.d("WalkieTalkieActivity/onDestroy", "Failed to close local profile.", ee)
    }
}
```

### Java

```java
public void closeLocalProfile() {
    if (sipManager == null) {
       return;
    }
    try {
       if (sipProfile != null) {
          sipManager.close(sipProfile.getUriString());
       }
     } catch (Exception ee) {
       Log.d("WalkieTalkieActivity/onDestroy", "Failed to close local profile.", ee);
     }
}
```

## Making an audio call

To make an audio call, you must have the following in place:

- A[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)that is making the call (the "local profile"), and a valid SIP address to receive the call (the "peer profile").
- A[SipManager](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipManager)object.

To make an audio call, you should set up a[SipAudioCall.Listener](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipAudioCall.Listener). Much of the client's interaction with the SIP stack happens through listeners. In this snippet, you see how the[SipAudioCall.Listener](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipAudioCall.Listener)sets things up after the call is established:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
var listener: SipAudioCall.Listener = object : SipAudioCall.Listener() {

    override fun onCallEstablished(call: SipAudioCall) {
        call.apply {
            startAudio()
            setSpeakerMode(true)
            toggleMute()
        }
    }

    override fun onCallEnded(call: SipAudioCall) {
        // Do something.
    }
}
```

### Java

```java
SipAudioCall.Listener listener = new SipAudioCall.Listener() {

   @Override
   public void onCallEstablished(SipAudioCall call) {
      call.startAudio();
      call.setSpeakerMode(true);
      call.toggleMute();
         ...
   }

   @Override

   public void onCallEnded(SipAudioCall call) {
      // Do something.
   }
};
```

Once you've set up the[SipAudioCall.Listener](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipAudioCall.Listener), you can make the call. The[SipManager](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipManager)method`makeAudioCall`takes the following parameters:

- A local SIP profile (the caller).
- A peer SIP profile (the user being called).
- A[SipAudioCall.Listener](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipAudioCall.Listener)to listen to the call events from[SipAudioCall](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipAudioCall). This can be`null`, but as shown above, the listener is used to set things up once the call is established.
- The timeout value, in seconds.

For example:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
val call: SipAudioCall? = sipManager?.makeAudioCall(
        sipProfile?.uriString,
        sipAddress,
        listener,
        30
)
```

### Java

```java
call = sipManager.makeAudioCall(sipProfile.getUriString(), sipAddress, listener, 30);
```

## Receiving calls

To receive calls, a SIP application must include a subclass of[BroadcastReceiver](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver)that has the ability to respond to an intent indicating that there is an incoming call. Thus, you must do the following in your application:

- In`AndroidManifest.xml`, declare a`<receiver>`. In**SipDemo** , this is`<receiver android:name=".IncomingCallReceiver"
  android:label="Call Receiver" />`.
- Implement the receiver, which is a subclass of[BroadcastReceiver](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver). In**SipDemo** , this is`IncomingCallReceiver`.
- Initialize the local profile ([SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)) with a pending intent that fires your receiver when someone calls the local profile.
- Set up an intent filter that filters by the action that represents an incoming call. In**SipDemo** , this action is`android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL`.

#### Subclassing BroadcastReceiver

To receive calls, your SIP application must subclass[BroadcastReceiver](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver).The Android system handles incoming SIP calls and broadcasts an "incoming call"intent (as defined by the application) when it receives a call.Here is the subclassed[BroadcastReceiver](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/BroadcastReceiver)code from the[SipDemo sample](https://developer.android.com/resources/samples/SipDemo).  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
/**
 * Listens for incoming SIP calls, intercepts and hands them off to WalkieTalkieActivity.
 */
class IncomingCallReceiver : BroadcastReceiver() {

    /**
     * Processes the incoming call, answers it, and hands it over to the
     * WalkieTalkieActivity.
     * @param context The context under which the receiver is running.
     * @param intent The intent being received.
     */
    override fun onReceive(context: Context, intent: Intent) {
        val wtActivity = context as WalkieTalkieActivity

        var incomingCall: SipAudioCall? = null
        try {
            incomingCall = wtActivity.sipManager?.takeAudioCall(intent, listener)
            incomingCall?.apply {
                answerCall(30)
                startAudio()
                setSpeakerMode(true)
                if (isMuted) {
                    toggleMute()
                }
                wtActivity.call = this
                wtActivity.updateStatus(this)
            }
        } catch (e: Exception) {
            incomingCall?.close()
        }
    }

    private val listener = object : SipAudioCall.Listener() {

        override fun onRinging(call: SipAudioCall, caller: SipProfile) {
            try {
                call.answerCall(30)
            } catch (e: Exception) {
                e.printStackTrace()
            }
        }
    }
}
```

### Java

```java
/**
 * Listens for incoming SIP calls, intercepts and hands them off to WalkieTalkieActivity.
 */
public class IncomingCallReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
    /**
     * Processes the incoming call, answers it, and hands it over to the
     * WalkieTalkieActivity.
     * @param context The context under which the receiver is running.
     * @param intent The intent being received.
     */
    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        SipAudioCall incomingCall = null;
        try {
            SipAudioCall.Listener listener = new SipAudioCall.Listener() {
                @Override
                public void onRinging(SipAudioCall call, SipProfile caller) {
                    try {
                        call.answerCall(30);
                    } catch (Exception e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                    }
                }
            };
            WalkieTalkieActivity wtActivity = (WalkieTalkieActivity) context;
            incomingCall = wtActivity.sipManager.takeAudioCall(intent, listener);
            incomingCall.answerCall(30);
            incomingCall.startAudio();
            incomingCall.setSpeakerMode(true);
            if(incomingCall.isMuted()) {
                incomingCall.toggleMute();
            }
            wtActivity.call = incomingCall;
            wtActivity.updateStatus(incomingCall);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            if (incomingCall != null) {
                incomingCall.close();
            }
        }
    }
}
```

#### Setting up an intent filter to receive calls

When the SIP service receives a new call, it sends out an intent with the action string provided by the application. In SipDemo, this action string is`android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL`.

This code excerpt from**SipDemo** shows how the[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)object gets created with a pending intent based on the action string`android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL`. The`PendingIntent`object will perform a broadcast when the[SipProfile](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/net/sip/SipProfile)receives a call:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
val sipManager: SipManager? by lazy(LazyThreadSafetyMode.NONE) {
    SipManager.newInstance(this)
}

var sipProfile: SipProfile? = null
...

val intent = Intent("android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL")
val pendingIntent: PendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, Intent.FILL_IN_DATA)
sipManager?.open (sipProfile, pendingIntent, null)
```

### Java

```java
public SipManager sipManager = null;
public SipProfile sipProfile = null;
...

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setAction("android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL");
PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intent, Intent.FILL_IN_DATA);
sipManager.open(sipProfile, pendingIntent, null);
```

The broadcast will be intercepted by the intent filter, which will then fire the receiver (`IncomingCallReceiver`). You can specify an intent filter in your application's manifest file, or do it in code as in the**SipDemo** sample application's`onCreate()`method of the application's`Activity`:  

### Kotlin

```kotlin
class WalkieTalkieActivity : Activity(), View.OnTouchListener {
    ...
    lateinit var callReceiver: IncomingCallReceiver
    ...

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle) {
        val filter = IntentFilter().apply {
            addAction("android.SipDemo.INCOMING_CALL")
        }
        callReceiver = IncomingCallReceiver()
        this.registerReceiver(callReceiver, filter)
        ...
    }
    ...
}
```

### Java

```java
public class WalkieTalkieActivity extends Activity implements View.OnTouchListener {
...
    public IncomingCallReceiver callReceiver;
    ...

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

       IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter();

## Testing SIP applications

To test SIP applications, you need the following:

- A mobile device that is running Android 2.3 or higher. SIP runs over wireless, so you must test on an actual device. Testing on AVD won't work.
- A SIP account. There are many different SIP providers that offer SIP accounts.
- If you are placing a call, it must also be to a valid SIP account.

To test a SIP application:

1. On your device, connect to wireless (**Settings \> Wireless \& networks \> Wi-Fi \> Wi-Fi settings**).
2. Set up your mobile device for testing, as described in[Developing on a Device](https://developer.android.com/tools/device).
3. Run your application on your mobile device, as described in[Developing on a Device](https://developer.android.com/tools/device).
4. If you are using Android Studio, you can view the application log output by opening the Event Log console (**View \> Tool Windows \> Event Log**).
5. Ensure your application is configured to launch Logcat automatically when it runs:
   1. Select**Run \> Edit Configurations**.
   2. Select the**Miscellaneous** tab in the**Run/Debug Configurations**window.
   3. Under**Logcat** , select**Show logcat automatically** then select**OK**.
