Can you disable USSD messages with your app? Maybe intercept the DBus messages so that USSD messages are not displayed?

That way only when a user wants he can use your app or dial manually to check balances etc...

I haven't found the right way to disable system's catch-and-show of USSD messages. But, there is interesting effect in my app's work: if option "hard-kill" is enabled - the system's pop-up window if forced to close after first USSD-request procesed by app. And after this operation system's USSD window will not be shown at all (from any application) - until reboot.

Version updated.

Great! One of the features I missed most, finally coming to the N9. Thank you.

My operator replies to *101# as follows:
I am only interested in the first and third values, so I tried using this as my regex:
...and this as my template:
...but it didn't work. Any suggestions, please?

Multiple values not supported... yet

"dear cutomer, your balance id x.xxx, valid upto dd/mm/yyyy". this is my operator message, please help me setting regex and template

never mind.... ".*?(\d+\.\d+)" worked !

New version.

Great & Thanks!
