Hi guys,
I'm looking for an application that rejects a call from a certain number and then calls back, does anyone know any app that can do that? I have seen tons of programs that can send block a call and reply with a message or do other things but none was able to reject a call and call back a few seconds later. Hope you can help me out
Cheers!
Would you suggest the best call filter software? Setting profiles with call and sms filtering (no ring, no wake up, directly delete calls and sms of specified users when active)?

Uhmmm not really... it notifies me when I receive a call... And anyway it's not possible to set profiles with group of rules... Or multiple action (sms AND call filtering) for the same number in the same rule.
After trying it better I have to say that I was wrong... this program rocks! Thank you
Good news...
That's what I'm really needing.
Gonna try it right away.
Thanks.
Magnificent! No more picking up my phone to see "Number withheld"
I may even pay for it after 10 days...
I use this and it works well. Call Firewall
spb phone suite has black list......working like as charm

Thanks Again all those who helped on our Christmas present (leo custom roms
If you search in the Development and Hacking threads on XDA there is a tool called, IIRC, Call Firewall, which might be what you are looking for.
Use this tool to search http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://forum.xda-developers.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all

There is a programme called 'Call Blocker' I used it on my Diamond, using WM 6.1, give it a go.
SPB Phone Suite does the job as well, they call it "Call Fliltering"

Looks like it simply rejects the call. If that is the case, the caller will be sent to my voicemail and I still have to delete it afterwards.
Call Bouncer is better. It accepts the call and hang up. No voicemail.
However, there is a problem I think would appear in all these programs. At times, I got a ring (or half a ring) before it is caught by Call Bouncer. I found this rather annoying.
Is there any apps out there that silents selected incoming calls instead of rejecting them?
Sometimes I don't want them to know I'm rejecting their calls, just that I wasn't around to receive them.

I have the impression that pocket call bouncer has an option to reject (accept and hang up) or ignore (turn of ringing). Give it a try. I've used it on HD2 but I don't like it because at times the phone rings once before the bouncer can take action.
Magicall does all that. It can:
1) reject (send to voicemail)
2) drop
3) pick up and hold
4) ignore (no ringing is sounded while caller keeps waiting)
5) handle incoming SMS
You can also set it to automatically send SMS to callers.

my most excellent buds.. the programs are all reactive stuff.. something has to happen for the programs to do something.
If you really want to let the person think you just didn't pick up his call, then just simply copy a silent ringtone and use it as a custom ringtone for the person... you'll never "hear" from him/her again.
And.. it just takes 30s to turn off voicemail.. I mean, you wouldn't want the person to wonder why is it that you have voicemail and he/she wasn't diverted there?

True...but I dun see how you can do that for incoming calls that don't show a number.

No worries...I'm using Callblock now and it works great....
Just replying moooxooom's statement that we should use a silent ringtone for all callers. Sometimes it takes just a little bit more thinking to capture all the usual scenarios.
Cool call management app - my recommendation
I use HTC Diamond 2 and recently came across a cool call management and call blocking app XBLOCKR. I first downloaded the Lite version from Microsoft Marketplace and was quite impressed. It has a great feature "Do Not Disturb" and alas it is not available in the Lite version that I was using. I contacted them through their website as they sell it for $ 19.95 which I feel is a reasonable price, but thought of bargaining
They gave me a code and I purchased it for $ 14.95.
It's a great app if anybody is looking for something different than call blocker apps. It gives you options to handle your call when it arrives as well you can pre-program. I am very happy having it on my Diamond. Check it out as they have a 100 call trial version with all the features.

The readme for Call Bouncer states that it ignores the same as Call Firewall does, this sending the caller over to your voicemail. The developers site for it is at http://www.ipocketpc.net/applications/Category32-Utilities.aspx (scroll down to it) to see if this is the same Call Bouncer you are talking about.
Best Call Managers
Hi
Check this one out http://www.pocketx.net/products/photocontactspro_ppc/
Allows you to set call management individually or in groups. Can set timed profiles. I rate this as one with the most variety of options
Does anyone know of any app that can blacklist say telemarketers and either answer a call and send a tri-tone telezap? In theory this is supposed to tell cold callers call systems to remove this number as it will play the three tones you hear commonly when you call a disconnected number. Those tones should trigger t hem to automatically remove.
Im hoping theres an app out there that can do this or forward a call automatically to something like google voice and let it handle it.
Anyone heard of any such thing?
Best thing out there is callfilter in the market. But it only blocks numbers that you want that u put in a list. I use it to ignore creditors. I don't know how helpful it can be to u. Bu that's the only one I can think of
thanks for the input
Dear Sir or Madame,
I would like my phone to ring silently (as if the sound profile were set to "silent") when an "Unknown" caller calls it. By "Unknown" I mean callers who block their number. I do not mean callers who aren't in my address book, whose number is displayed when they call. I do not want the phone to hang up on the calls, redirect them to some other number, or any other type of fancy response.
I have tried over a dozen "call / sms blocker" type apps from the market, and every single one of them has two problems: 1) They are way, way, over complicated, and 2) None of them work properly - each has one or more bugs which interfere with normal usage of my phone.
Does anyone know of an app which would simply "ring" silently for "Unknown" callers, and doesn't do much, if anything, else?
My phone is an HTC Inspire 4G. I can run either Froyo or Gingerbread, in case that is an issue in finding a solution to my problem.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Showtune
