Hi All
It have seen alot about blocking callers all together, however I have a particular caller that I still want to accept calls when I choose, but I dont want their calls going to voicemail when I ignore them or miss the call.
Thanks in advance.

How can I use call barring without blocking all calls but specific telephone numbers?I know WMobile doesn't support this option. Is there any software doing sth like this?I want to choose specific group of phones for call barring. For instance, I want on Sunday to block incoming calls from the group of work phones and not the personal group.Can anyone give me an answer? :?

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
Hey everyone anyone have an idea of what might cause this? I am with Rogers so name as well as number are sent with caller ID. On a lot of calls, my phone will ring and it will show a number like 416-123-1234 as calling with no name at all. If I don't answer, then the notification bar and call logs will show "Missed Call from ABC COMPANY". Anyone know why it doesn't always show the name when the call is actually coming in and then does later? I don't have any caller ID apps or things like that, and I even enabled google's caller ID feature but still doesn't do it. Most calls will show the name, but just a handful always do this.

Have the same issue. And I don't see the the caller picture.
For the callers that I have in my contacts as well.
I am on Rogers and can confirm the same issue. It happens sometimes, whilst other times I see the company name and picture even though it is not saved in my Contacts.
All incoming calls from people not in the contact list show caller ID name as "Restricted", despite the phone number being available. Sometimes the incoming number is displayed, sometimes it's not, depending on where the incoming call is shown. The number is always available in call history, and the caller's location is displayed. This is a huge headache, since some of us don't care for answering blocked callers.
This is not a carrier issue, but a glitch in the way the phone interprets the caller ID information.
Has anyone come up with a workaround or fix yet?
Same issue here. Quite frustrating.

I thought it was related to me having the google dialer framework installed.
Now I know I'm not alone. Yeah, pain in the butt.
