Hi,
 
I am developing android application which perform dialing using standard android API.
 
For example:
 

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_CALL, Uri.parse("tel:123456789,,,,1234#"));
context.startActivity(i);

 
And I am not able to place in the call. I want to know how CIUS interpret Pause (,) , * , # in the dialing number.

I believe your problem is that in order to use the intent ACTION_CALL, you need the following permission:
 
"android.permission.CALL_PHONE"
 
If you do not want to add this permission, you can use Intent.ACTION_DIAL to pre-populate the phone number and pauses into the Cius' dialer, and then you can hit "call" from there.

Note, commas in the dial string will pause dialing for 1 second as expected.
