I'm looking for something to block calls and sms. Similar to SPC, Super Private Conversation, on Android.
I was looking for similar app too, but can't find anything :/
call block app is not available for wp7 yet.
i prefer magicall. hope the app will be out soon. magicall for wp7?
Magicall was the best call blocker I used on 6.5. I liked the fact it would block a call even if you were on another call. I wasn't able to find that feature in any of the other programs.
No Public API support [yet]
Currently the public APIs and the application execution model do not allow third parties to make such an application.
Microsoft needs to make some more API's available for developers to be able to create such an application.
This type of application is what keeps me from defecting to iPhone or WP7. Until true multitasking is made available on WP7, we won't see this type of app.
MagiCall is the main app that keeps me using the TP2 instead of upgrading.
if MS read this, please add call record 2 ways API too

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

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
Is there any application that can start a pre-configured application when the phone receives an SMS from another pre-configured phone. I know there is SmartProtect Anti-Theft Software - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=464336 , but looking for something simpler
Looking for something simillar to this, http://www.christec.co.nz/blog/archives/508 , where if u have the word GAME in the SMS, it will launch solitire
Hi Gurus!
Is there any possibility exists to develop an desktop application to send and receive SMS for WP7 ??
Regards
I was actually thinking about making something like this, but there's a problem...A developer cannot send SMS or mail without user intervention, so all we can do is create the SMS, send it to the SMS function, and then the user has to press send himself. As far as I can see, it's not possible to automate it...
It can be automated if you write it as homebrew (ie. not for sale in the marketplace).
That said, this isn't something I would spend time on. I believe Microsoft has said they will bring back SMS sync to WP7 in which case you could send/receive directly from Outlook on the PC. Actually, I do this already as my carrier offers this as a free add-on service.

Guys, as of yet, we haven't figured out how to access the lower level SMS files. It probably won't be a reality for a while.. maybe until complete R/W filesystem access is achieved. At that point, you would have to make it device independent also which would increase the difficulty of doing such a thing. I would wait a while and monitor the threads discussing the different registry and filesystem findings before thinking of doing this. Right now it's a waste of time.
I have this particular problem: I don't have a phone, but I have a Skype phone number, SMS is very convenient but Skype cannot receive SMS from phones however it can send SMS to phones. So I send my friends texts but it is one way.
I'm a web developer, not a platform developer <- much harder in my opinion, syntax
So, if I created a database to store messages, users, and used that as an API and I wanted a simple app with a text box that you can write into and receive, with a send button / search for user/contact, how hard is that to do for all three platforms? Connect to the database then communicate with this app as if it was a native SMS client.
Maybe it already exists...
I think it's a good idea.
Although I should just get a phone ha
Any thoughts would be appreciated, maybe I'll make it myself. Android then Windows then Apple
So, knowing Google, they won't make their own desktop client for messages for web. Most people may be fine just pinning the tab in their browser or using the page shortcut method. I, however, am not, because I feel these things are lacking in some pretty basic features that can only come from a native application, such as minimizing to the system tray, start on boot, and reply to the message from the notification. Basically, the hope is to basically just embed their page into an Electron app (or something) and then use that app as the middleman. It would intercept the notifications, generate it's own native notification with the ability to reply to the message from within the notification on supported systems (Windows 10 can do this, don't know about OS X though).
Anybody up for the challenge?
