Root Call Blocker - CDMA testers needed!

Hello guys, im the developer of Root Call Blocker, an advanced call and SMS blocking app for rooted phones.
The app is currently in open beta here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
I dont have a Droid X or any CDMA phone and need testers! Please let me know if you are interested in some hard-core testing and logging...

Downloaded and will test on my Droid x ...

Thank you! And dont forget to update in the next few hours, we are pushing a bugfix later today...

i've been using it for at least week, and downloaded 2 or 3 updates. as far as i know, it works fine. i tested it on calls, but haven't on sms. i like that the phone doesn't ring at all.
sent you an email suggesting the log be optional.
sorry, i'm using droid x on liberty gingerbread v0.5.

Yes, i got the email, i will be adding logging options soon! Any more suggestions?

I have been using it and it seems to block calls but not text messages.
I tried it as just block SMS only & I also tried it to do SMS & block calls
But it never did the SMS!

Please write in this thread if you have comments or suggestions!

I'd love too test, I been looking for a better call blocker, although it force closes on me everytime I try to install it.

Do you have root? If not, it will do that...

been rooted since day 1

You will have to send us some logs... fcs are not exactly a common issue.

Hello guys, please get me some feedbeack on the latest build. Are sms blocking issues using "block and save" still present?
Weve been trying hard to iron things out, and have two new reject methods planned especially for cdma phones, so i will need some of your help to get them working properly! PM me if youre interested.

Updated, let me know if your issues are fixed please!

I'll give it a go. I've been looking for a good application like for a while

Hi, could you guys please give the following version (preview of tonights release) to see if SMS blocking is fixed.
EDIT: ATTACHMENT REMOVED

The latest update is very stable!

D/ling now I have been looking for a good callblocker. Will let you know my thoughts in a day or two.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

Hi, that version has been deprecated. You had better get the latest market version as it has been updated considerably!

I just tested this with a buddy of mine. My voicemail is still picking up even though I set the block method to constantly ring.
Could this be a problem because i use google voice?

[App] Root Call Blocker needs testers

Hello guys, im the developer of Root Call Blocker, an advanced call and SMS blocking app for rooted phones.
The app's home is here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
We have had multiple reports that blocking is not working sometimes on American phones, so we need some nice people to do some testing.
You can use the Groups function of the Lite version to do the testing - it gives you almost everything youd want from the app anyway.
Please post comments here, but also use the "Write to us" dialog in settings.

This works perfectly on my is 2!

Hoever this is the incredible forum!

Have the pro version running cm7 on verizon network and it works perfectly. Not one chirp when a call is blocked. Love it!
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Excellent, please leave a review on the market!

Thanks for this! Brilliant!

Enjoy... and remember, an update is always just around the corner! If you have problems, use "Write to us" in Settings!

Could you guys please test the following behavior for me:
1. How the app behaves when a blocked number attempts to connect during call waiting
2. How a blocked caller is handled when "Dont answer" is set as the reject method and you are currently on the phone and have not enabled blocked call vibrate notifications within the app itself
Dont forget to send logs with descriptions as well

Come on people, i really need some feedback on this!

Nothing at all?

Works well for me.

Works awesome. Best call blocker i've seen. No issues so far, been using it for months.

Cool. If you ever have issues, don't be shy and get in touch!

I have not experienced any problems, this app is the absolute best, thanks!

This is good news!

Whats with 1.7.1? Any issues?

Guys, an update has been rolled out. It contains an important new workaround thast needs to be tested.
It may help those people who have data issues, especially on LTE enabled phones sometimes.
Please help me test this by installing the app, rebooting and waiting for data to return with the screen on. Please wait 3 minutes at least before sending logs via "Write to developer" in the app.
Dont forget to include a description. Thanks!

Working perfectly for me! Thanks, this is absolutely top class.

Excellent. No fc is the latest build?

Any issues to report?

[APP][1.6+] Sms Replier - Need Feedback

Hey, I recently released an app to Google Play and was wondering if you guys could help me out to test it and to give me feedback!
The app is called Sms Replier and it's a tool that can be used to send texts to people who call you while you're unable to get to your phone to answer(while you're in an exam, or playing a game of soccer, etc.). I know this idea has been done before, but I want to know whether you think it's worth it for me to keep working on it so as to add features which have not been done in any other app. Please let me know how well it performs/what things I should change about it, and please rate it on Google Play!
I am excited to get some real criticism from android users so that I can continue to make this app what I originally set out for it to be!
The app is completely free! Thank you in advance.

I like it! Simple, but I would love a widget.
If you are lazy: here's a link to the download:

cool
thanks for the app..

You're very welcome!

Hey. Can the app send sms at a specific time? For example set it to send an sms to a contact at 2pm and when the clock becomes 2pm it sends the sms. Cz I'm looking for such a feature.
Also it would be great if the above could work on whatsapp too. Thanks

I could include that feature with relative ease, but it currently doesn't do that since I was aiming at making an app that helps you when you don't have access to your phone

it works ace!
what would be good is to have either a widget to toggle on / off, permanent notification to enable access to the menu, or an idle / activity monitor like if phone left idle for x minutes then enable it; as soon as there's human activity then de-activate it (could be linked to the auto screen dim/off).
A very nice app, very useful for businesses. Out Of Office Reply

A great start! I would also like to add some suggestions (some may be repeats).
1. Widgets that you can add to turn on and off selected notifications.
2. Auto respond based on a pre-determined schedule.
3. Auto start on startup option (for scheduled events).
4. # appears over icon to notify user how many messages were replied to while away (like mail or missed call icon).
Keep up the great work!

Hello
Good app. Excellent operation. tested on my Nexus and Galaxy S2.
Take this opportunity to say that I'm spreading my blog this excellent application.

Great app very helpful while driving especially. Would be nice if you could add some features to even reply to text messages automatically. Something similar to auto reply feature in GoSMS.

great work.

as bigdog said those are very essential to complete this app.
first time i installed the app.. i was really surprised to see its simplicity really awesome
i would like to add some suggestions and doubts from mine sides too even though they may be repeated
some brainstorming got me to bring up these elements
1. sometimes there can just be miss calls.. you can add up timer like (send sms before ringer, on one ring, on two rings, or like if didnt pick the call at all will send an sms)
2. a status bar indicating that the sms replier with number of sms sent. [a widget would also be helpful]
3. then you can add some templates or profiles like driving, in class or let users create their profiles or templates.
4. there is one more thing that u can get access of contacts and just disconnect the unknown numbers[ofcourse getting the notification with number at our end] and donot sent them a reply in order to maintain the privacy and not let the unknown numbers know what you are upto.
5. and if i may add a option.. a counter to be set to ring if a same person is trying to call for more than two three times or in case of emergency
i will add more when it comes ...

Would be great if it could work on whatsapp!

The difference is that you don't need to click the template to send it when you're receiving the call. It sends automatically when a missed call is recorded. Sorry to assume, but it doesn't seem like you actually tried using the app at all.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

@saredev, does your app have feature that can exclude certain numbers from auto responding but they are in the contacts list. For example, notifications banks or credit card companies. These companies don't need to receive auto-response. I think you might have to check the number when it arrives whether it's a phone number or shortcode before auto-response. Or include a list of numbers from auto-response.

[TEST] Root Call Blocker/ Call Master/ Project Delta needs help with issues on RI JB

Hi guys. Im one of the developers of Root Call Blocker and a number of other apps using a custom build root telephony layer. There have been recent reports of our apps behaving badly with the new official JB updates.
We need people to check whether this is true - especially people with CDMA devices which we have no access to. Either way, please download the free versions of the apps in question (look at bottom of post for links) and perform some simple tests:
- call yourself from blocked numbers
- text yourself from blocked numbers
- mms yourself from blocked numbers (CM/Delta only)
If something seems to be working fine, please try again just in case. If you have problems, go to Settings and find the "Write to us" item. Once you click on it, be sure to mention in the description field that youre from xda - just put XDA TEST or something.
If you can, please try to include the number that was supposed to be blocked - the logs consist of thousands of lines, so that will help a lot.
Root Call Blocker - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.rootcallblocker.beta
(trial allows one item, you can use groups to block more)
Call Master - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.blacklist
(this one is completely free)
Thanks in advance. Also, you can write about problems here if you like!

There is no JB out for the RazR i. As soon as it will be released, i'm jumping in :thumbup:
BTW: There is no CDMA Version of the RazR i. It's GSM only (correct me if i'm wrong)

[APP][4.1+] 8sms: Android 4.4 KitKat / CyanogenMod 10.2 stock messaging with extras

EDIT: Download 8sms from Google Play or download from the website.
EDIT: 8sms now based on Android 4.4 KitKat / Cyanogenmod 10.2. See post #394.
EDIT: App renamed from 88sms to 8sms. See post #246.
Hi,
This is my first android app and my first app announcement on XDA so apologies in advance if I've broken any rules.
I've ported the stock messaging app and then added some enhancements and changes so it can (hopefully) work on any Jelly Bean phone. This app is downstream from the latest Android 4.3 and CyanogenMod 10.2 (not-yet-released as of writing).
(ICS compatibility is a possible future feature.)
Please have a look if interested and feel free to try it out.
The Play Store link is:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thinkleft.eightyeightsms.mms
Excerpts from the app description follows ...
Notable features
Notification pop-ups
Quick reply
Gesture based templates
Emoji support
Optional dark theme
Install this app if you want to use features from the latest Android messaging app without having to wait for a full phone software update.
Usage
Whilst 88sms is a replacement for the messaging app that came with your phone, it is actually an add-on application only.
Please do not disable or remove the messaging app that came with your phone as that is still required to receive sms and mms messages.
88sms works best if you turn off notifications for the messaging app that came with your phone. Then you won't get two sets of notifications.
Phone compatibility
This app may not work (yet) on the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. If you install this app on one of these devices, please let us know if it works.
If you install this app on your phone and it does not work, please let us know. Please be sure to specify your phone model and software version number, and the version of 88sms you have installed.
Permissions
This app requires a wide range of permissions because it is a port of a system app. System apps use a lot of permissions. Full network access is required in order to send (or download) mms using your phone's cellular data (mms) connection.
Thank you.

Works great. Left my rating on the play store.

Sure, really appreciate it. after install, i open it, but one dialog box appear (it said: sorry...._ i can't remember) then escape the program. i tried several time, same thing. so i uninstall your software.

Works great on note 1

mms isn't working it just keeps trying to send and never sends. The stock messaging app works fine. I am using a Note 2 on att with a rooted stock rom

Yea group messaging doesn't work since the MMS problem. It just stays sending and won't go through.

On Sprint GS4.... MMS doesn't send on this app :/ but when I go to my stock messaging app it sends and I receive it from both apps, just a little workaround to an otherwise amazing app. Love the look and feel like AOSP! Some custom theming options would be great!

Great app, I already love it...
A nice feature that I would like to see is the ability to set the number of line for tying SMS... Because 3 lines is not enough for long SMS typer like me ^^

Hi,
Thanks to everyone of you for trying it out and thanks for the encouragement and feedback!
I acknowledge there may be a few problems on some devices ... it is my first app, after all, and it's not like I have a lot of different phones to test it on
I will follow up and try to fix the bugs. Unfortunately, I've gone travelling for a week so I might not be able to do much until a week later.
But I will follow up.
Thank you all!
