Hi all,
Would be great if some genius could program a call filter which is nicely integrated into the HTCs contact app. Maybe just an additional button or tab to each contact to activate call blocking.
Cheers

not possible, for serval reasons, now im not going to get into them but there not hard to think of

Hello All
This is my very first post on this forum and the HTC Touch Pro will be my first Windows Mobile device, so a complete freshie in every respect. If I ask a question that has been answered before, it is not because I have not read other posts but that I do not know what I am looking for!
Historically I have had S60 and UIQ3 phones. On those, I have always made use of Call (Advanced Call Manager, Magic Profiles, Phonepilot) and SMS (MUMSMS, GINA, MCleaner) management and filtering tools.
I use the same phone for both work and business so like the facility to block calls and SMS accordingly. I also use the filtering facilities to hide call and sms log details from prying eyes.
I have searched for a call & sms application for WM6 devices but have not found one that seems to do all I want. Therefore, could I please ask your advice on which are the best app(s) that can hide received and sent messages (all types) and can hide the incoming, outgoing and missed call log for filtered numbers/contacts?
Additionally (and it may be silly to ask, considering the forum in which it is being asked!), can you give me your views of the performance of WM devices when compared to S60 & UIQ3?
Thanks
Hello, sorry i cant help u... but... can u tell me which of the S60 tools can hide sms/calls? Thats a very very nice idea... hrhr...
Hello
On S60 v3 it's called Symbianon Private Call & SMS Guard
CallFirewall, MagiCall are 2 filtering tools i know from scratch... but there are also tools around for e.g. secretly moving special sms from your ex-girlfriend to a hidden / passwordprotected folder...
Hi
Thanks for the reply. Do CallFirewall & MagiCall actually remove incoming, outgoing and missed calls from the phones call history?
Thanks
Soon HTC Touch Pro owner
Hi harjm!
I'm exactly in the same position, totally new to WM devices, have been a Symbian follower since the Psion 5 days.
I was looking for the exact same stuff you're looking for and I found this one:
http://www.pocketx.net/products/photocontactspro_ppc/
and it seems like it is what we are after
I had a package a couple of years ago on my MDA (and perhaps on my Kaiser) that would do this - you could select a contact and then intercept calls and SMS and take an action without it hitting your notifications (e.g. reject the call, send an SMS back to the caller automatically and reject, answer an SMS or ditch it silently, etc)
I can't find it - and don't remember what it was called...... but I'm reasonably sure I found it here on XDA....
Does anyone remember/know what it was/is, and will it run on the Leo?
Thanks in advance.
That would be an awesome app. I have long dreamed of such a thing.
there is a program that worked on my tp2 that should work on hd2 as well called "magicall"
This one was free.... I'm quite certain it was here somewhere, but I can't find it.
Hi
I plan to move from HD2 to desire HD.
What I need is an app, that can filter calls and sms from specific contacts. Of course, there are lots of these already. What I used to have with WM is the ability co completely hide the incoming call( ignore function) All apps I have tried so far will clear the call log, silience it, but when the actual call is happening, the call screen will show up( with the pictue of the caller and so on... I want this hidden as well
So, I look for fresh ideas. I tried all apps on my HD2 (SDcard Android, of course) and I suppose there might be difference in the app behaviour n the actual Desire HD. Any suggestions welcome and I hope the topic will be useful to others than me..
PS I know about the send to voicemail function - I want the ring to go on , just like tke one calling to thing I am in a cinema or not hearing my phone, not to hang up the call
I to hv moved from Wm to android. N this is first app I hv searched with no results kindly help
i am looking for an alternative too, i try all the aplications on market ( black list, call filter, etc) no ignore function
Hi,
I would like to ask if it's possible to add, customize the Call apps and Contacts apps (which are default) in Android.
My idea is that when you open the Contact list, click on someone there, the screen will display information (Number, Call, SMS now) and I want to add another button under all, so that when you hit, it'll call the user via VOIP or do some function ...
Is it possible to customize the default apps? is there somewhere that I can have the source code of these apps?
What I really need is to add some more function into the Calls apps and Contacts apps but I really don't know where to begin it
Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance
Hello,
I am desperately looking for a dialer / contacts app, which has the following features:
- Display the Names of contacts, TOGETHER with their phone numbers.
- Provide a detailed call summary (time of outgoing calls / incoming calls, all calls, SMS counter!)
- Has the ability to allow calls and SMS messages ONLY for certain contacts, so that only a few people can disturb me while I'm sleeping.
I don't care if this will be a paid or a free app.
I'm new to Android, my previous phone had WM 6.1 and I'm really DESPERATE how poor the contacts and dialer of Android are!!! I don't need a 4.3" screen to see the names of my contacts as HUGE banners, but to see as much info as possible on the screen (like the phone numbers of my contacts!!) Nokia had this in 1998 !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks a lot for all your replies and I apologize if I have posted this in the wrong thread.
i don't know if this will do all that your asking but ex dialer is really good, my friend likes go dialer/contacts. i hope this helps.
Hello,
thank you VERY MUCH for your reply!! I'll give your recommendation a try!!
Meanwhile, I have tested several application and Rocket Dialer is the closest one to my expectations.
I'm using just the contacts app. For dialing/keypad, the original app is OK, I found out that it has at
least counters for outgoing and incoming calls, no SMS counter though.
For blocking calls, I've downloaded Call Blocker, which has a whitelist, this is all I needed. I can put
2 numbers on the white list and disable all other incoming calls.
Thanks again!
Hello,
I've checked this ex Dialer and it's really potatic... Again ONLY names of the contacts and no option to change this.
There is also another program - DW Contacts. This is really a high-end app with a lot of options and highly customizable. I didn't find a way to display all the letters on one side of the screen for faster index search, as Rocket Dialer has it.
So, for me, Rocket Dialer is OK.
Try "Dialer One" by Yermek Zhumagulov. It displays "contacts, TOGETHER with their phone numbers", the way you want. You can have different colors for the contact and the phone nos. Seleting two stand-out colors, I found it very easy to read them against the dark background (selectable). Pretty cool and very fast. I'd been trying many dialers and uninstalled all of them after spending half-an-hour with this one.
Thanks a lot! I have looked at the screenshots on google play. It would do, but I prefer Rocket Dialer. It has many amazing options, together with the black list Thanks anyway! Now I'm searching for a task manager to be able to list all running processes and kill them
