Are you tired of that heavy that call you twenty times each day? ::
HOW IT WORKS
With this app you can block incoming calls for:
* Hidden numbers
* Phone numbers (match start of the number, end of the number or complete number)
* All numbers from a contact
You can enter the blocked numbers manually, from the contacts list or from the calls log.
The app support several working modes:
* Accept all incoming calls
* Reject all incoming calls
* Block the numbers/contacts that are added to the list (blacklist)
* Accept only incoming calls from the numbers/contacts that are added to the list (whitelist)
Note that the app is started when the call is received. Due to that, is possible that the system starts the incoming call ringtone before the app ends it. If that occurs, please, create a ringtone with 1-2 seconds of silence and use it.
Also, the app can show the list of rejected calls and much more...

Thank you for the app!! I am getting a Registration key is not valid message however.
EDIT: mia culpa....seems like my copy didnt get the entire thing
Hidden Numbers
May seem like a dumb question but just wondering if the blocking of hidden numbers is "all hidden numbers" or a hidden number recognized by the app after you have received and blocked it?
it works

Tried, key works! Quite confusing with "1" and "l"...
Thanks, bought it, can't stand ads.
Working very good so far , Using Galaxy S5 Duos and working great for both SIM , no ringing is heared while calling just direct busy which is very good since other applications gives a tiny normal calling tone then busy
will support by buying the app , please keep it good and updated
showing numbers by name while picking it from the call log or while checking the blocked call list instead of just the number will be good
ability to hide app icon from app drawer will be good addition also
auto add a number to blacklist if user canceled it for xx times ( if possible to do this feature )
app icon needs another color and a little bit more pro touch for the design
thanks for this great app :good: hoping that it will always working good

Hidden numbers refers to calls that are not providing the from number.
In spanish are "número oculto" and I have translated directly. Please, let me know if in english has other name.
Hey are you the dev for "root call blocker" ?
Hi, couldn't really test the app yet, since I can't add phone numbers from contacts to Whitelist. I always get the message "None of your contacts has a phone number".
Using Galaxy Note 4 with 4.4.4.
P.S.: Also missing a translation when using "Picking a number" - the three options regarding the whole number or only a part of the number are in Spanish.

Are your contacts synced with Google? I'm using the immutable id of the contacts in order to allow backup/restore operations (not jet implemented).
No, I'm not synching contacts with Google (would make to much mess in my phone due to number of google contacts )). My contacts are only stored locally (in the phone) and a copy of them on SIM card. So there is no solution for this (yet ) unless I sync with Google?
Cool no worries just making sure, dont want him to have any of my money.
Will have a look thanks mate

What is difference b/w this app and sams built-in block app?
Can you please add the function to block groups?
I have a group for business and want to add the entire group in the holidays.
@bartito or anyone else used the app - I have a question
What is the blocking method of this app?
Blocks the call at system level. No ringtone or screen wake
Rings for few seconds & then the app rejects it
Picks the call & immediately rejects it
Re calls blocker app
Cheer'z for this app! and the pro activation key it's working fine thanks!
gonna buy it after ive tried it out its only £1.07 to remove the adds, which i think is well worth the £££ :good:
tried to call my phone using another carrier , you can hear the ring for a sec then busy tone

Is there one that'll add an extension to your call history log and allow you to block numbers through there? I don't wanna have to copy the number and then open another applications and paste the number in there... Maybe if the application had an additional call history of it's own would be good too.
I liked Panoramic Phone Genius because of how easy it was to block numbers, but it ate up too much space and memory for me and my liking...
I'm just looking for a simple or advanced call blocker that I don't have to copy the number and then add it to a list, but I can just make a gesture or click and block a way right then and there.
Thanks

Hi Folks,
Some carriers send a USSD balance update message after each call, and sometimes after each data session on prepaid plans. This is very annoying, and SMS blockers won't stop these USSD messages.
I wrote an app to block USSD messages by keywords or regex. Works well for me in blocking my carrier's balance update messages.
My first android app, so please let me know if I can do something better.
Credits to commandus.com/blog/?p=58 for showing how to intercept these messages using the undocumented hook.
App is "com.melkote.quietbalance" on Google App Store. The v1.0 of the app is also attached to this post.

isn't working
Using galaxy s2 (AOKP 1CS ) If that matters.
I selected keyword and its not blocking ....
Edit: working, my bad didn't restart.thanks it's what i was looking for
Works perfectly (Galaxy S2 with CM9)
I've been looking for something like this for a long time but I just wasn't sure how to do it. I was told that these messages are not exactly USSD because USSD requires a code to be sent.
Also, thanks for the link to the blog with the sample code. I was looking for a way to make a widget that updates automatically using the intercepted message.
a big thanks
Thanks a lot, just what i need,i have requested for this in numerous forums, the only reply i got was it's operator based, contact your operator btwn you should reboot after seeting the matching words,
In my case the matching words are,last,call,
U can set this according to your ussd, n once you set you are ready to go,if some one wishes to be know their balance their can try prepay widget , n since it's not free i would like this feature to be incorporated in this app,
s2 running ics remix,
Hi Folks,
Thanks for all the feedback, here and elsewhere.
I've updated the app to ver 1.1 - this version adds a screen to show the last 25 messages and action taken (block or allow) and fixes a bug with blocking frequency.
You must reboot your phone if you update from 1.0 to 1.1 (or install either version).
As I'm a new XDA user, I can't edit the original post (due to presence of URL). So I've attached the APK to this post. If any moderators can move the APK file to the first post, it'll be great!
Thanks!

how to block idea data usage msg. ths app not banning class 0 message i.e. data usage
I'm on airtel n it's working for my data messages, so it should work on idea also
Just place the words that appear in your data balance ussd, like mb,last,charge,etcn you should be fine, you should reboot to get it started
from raj's s2
do an tutorial please
I'm on Airtel in India, and worked a charm - thank you very much!
I managed to use it on several messages that come through with different wording using the Keyword List.
Thanks again!
Now, what would be *really* useful is a widget that takes the info from the messages and displays the latest balance info - although there are other aps that do that

Not able to block the message bal pop ups
Hi I installed this app but itz not able to block the msgs.
When I tried to send the bulk sms from my sms application, I still recieve the balance messages from service provider.
How to block the messages? What to write the message matching string for that?
Multiple options to match strings would've been nice.

Bydefault for the past few days my balance messages stopped. is there any way to activate it.
Works perfectly with Airtel. Just use keyword blocking list and add words like balance, validity, usage to it to block all messages. Thanks!
Hi, I just installed it today and was just amazed by it. Currently I am using Keyword blocking to block messages.
I would like someone to explain blocking messages using sub string and / or regular expression with example.

It blocks the Message but Bip and Vibration is still there
Dear Developer,
Many congratulations for making such a wonderful app.
I found two problems with it.
1. It blocks the message but vibration and bip sound comes after every net session
(this has been solved by reinstalling) <s>2. When I send any code from my mobile to check balance e.g. *111#, it stop them too. I mean it keep showing "sending" on screen so message is not going out. </s>
I will appreciate if you look and check for above problems
Thanks

Internet permissions are required for Google Analytics only, but we will probably remove this in next version (I understand that some people may be concerned that an application that works with contacts requires an Internet connection). We don't send any private data from your device to our servers or 3rd party servers.
Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

Ahem, a dumb question, if it's covered in docs, I apologize
Is there a way to actually execute a call, rather than, have a screen with 'call' button pop up?
IN my usage, I just want to send the ussd string/dial the number at scheduled time with no further interaction
Of is not there, what do you think of such option, do able? Of any real use, worth considering?
Thanks again for the app, and, your help.

Looking into this further, apparently the carrier won't allow final digit included in the string, it gets ignored, and, needs to be entered 'interactively', so, my 'automated' used might need some interaction...

Hello,
I was wondering if the application is still available on google play store? As the above-mentioned link has expired I guess.
Thanks,
Apurv Sibal
Just realized i cannot block incoming calls / messages on this device? Used to be able to do it on my last 3 handsets but not this? This sucks as its a feature that should come with ALL handsets in my opinion! In a world where where bullying is rife and one f the methods used to bully is texting , let alone just general harassment from unwanted numbers and so forth ! To have a feature that enables you to take control and block this kinda crap is vital if you ask me! I understand to some people this may be no big deal but i see this as a huge disappointment!!
However,i assume theres little i can do about it so does anyone know of any trust worth and reliable apps that will do the same job?
I've not had a phone that could do it natively but my last three phones were Nexus devices so I always had CM or SlimROM which add this feature. sorry to hear you suffer abusive messages, I only needed it for blocking sales calls and crap like that.
There are a few apps in the Play Store that will do this but I hear good things about this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vladlee.easyblacklist
Apparently it does have a bug though where it drops an active call if a blocked call or message comes in at the same time.
You can add a number to your phone book then select "All calls to voicemail" in the contacts app.
1. Add the contact.
2. Go to dialer, swipe to the contacts
3. Edit the contact
4. Press the 3 dots on the top right
5. Select box - "all calls to voicemail"
This is the only option I can find for calls. Not ideal though as they can leave a message
As for texts, maybe an alternative text app?

Cheers man, thats summit i guess! Not ideal though as you said! I use textra as my default sms app but unfortunately no block feature on that either! I think vodafone have an app i can download. I might look in to that Needless to say this is only available to vodafone customers so i might be lucky as iam one
now you can block sms on your expiria z
What I did? I just downloaded an app from Play store named CLEAN INBOX, Installed it and made it as my default sms provider. Then I upgraded it to premium version for 0.79€. Premium version automaticaly blocks and deleats all unwanted sms from your inbox. Then I disabled my default sms provider. You can do it in settings / apps/ sms / and disable it or force stop. Your phone will be fully functional without it. Good luck and rnjoy your phone without any disturbers
Thread for the Message Forwarder App. This is a good way to reach the developer with any questions, concerns, or feature requests you might have in mind.
What is Message Forwarder?
Message Forwarder allows to automatically forward incoming text (SMS) messages, multimedia (MMS) messages, and phone call notifications to any phone number or e-mail address of your choice. Just tell the app what kind of messages and calls to handle and where to send them to, and Message Forwarder will take care of everything from there.
- Specify phone numbers to filter the messages and phone calls by.
- Specify phone numbers or e-mail addresses to forward the messages and call notifications to.
- Set up thorough and flexible manipulation rules to automatically modify the content of the messages before being forwarded. Very useful for those coupling this app with automated systems that make use of keywords.
- Attach information of the original sender or caller on the forwarded message.
- View a history of the messages forwarded, along with all their attachments in the case of multimedia messages.
- Specify days of the week and times of the day in which messages and call notifications should not be forwarded. Very useful for those not interested in forwarding messages during off hours, like weekends or weeknights.
- And much, much more.
Looking forward to hearing your feedback.

PS: I am a satisfied user of the app, Just giving my inputs to the forum.
My Simple review: I am looking for an app that can forward selected SMS from (secondary)mobile to email and found this app.
Feedback:
The app is easy to setup with step by step screen, DEV had well thought the flow of the setup.
I don't find any unnecessary permissions that can misused.
Each time by watching the 10sec ad APP provides 170 quota to use the app. No need to pay upfront ($5 for onetime purchase)
Few options I like in the app:
Able to forward SMS/MMS/CALL LOG
We can forward from ALL/SELECTED contacts and have Single or Multiple Targets (email/phone)
Use of FILTERS/RULES & Scheduling.
Few requests/suggestions to DEV:
I feel the current permission request steps are confusing and user may miss few of them. It will be easy if app can request the required access step by step while setting up the app.
Provide section/option for required access if user missed granting while setting up the app.
Kudos to the app developer, appreciate the efforts. Thanks for sharing with members.

Out of all the permissions the app asks for, a few can be moved to earlier in the configuration process (Read SMS, Receive SMS, Receive MMS, Send SMS, Read Contacts, Read Call Logs). Some others must stay in the end because they are required regardless of what options the user picks during the configuration process (Ignore Battery Optimization). I do agree the experience could be improved if we move the ones we can. I'll take a stab at it soon.
The user does get an explanation of why each permission is needed, but only if they chose NOT to grant it in the past; as in... "I see you didn't grant XYZ permission when I asked for it. I still need it and here is why". I think we should leave it that way for simplicity. If we move the permission requests to their respective steps in the configuration process, it should be obvious to the user why that permission is being requested. If they reject it, then the app can start giving explanations why they are needed.
The app also notifies the user about missing permissions through a system notification when it cannot do something because of the lack of such permission. It also gives the user a reminder whenever they visit the app and a needed permission is still not granted. If the user misses any permissions, they find out sooner rather than later.
For now, I can at least move forward with the permission request relocation mentioned above. I'll let you know how that goes.

Excellent app.
But, a few caveats need to be filled quickly.
1. Provision for SIM selection of SMS forwarding (should be a part of each rule).
2. The developer has already implemented setting Sender ID quite nicely (inclusion/exclusion) on screen no. 4 of config.
- But, it lacks the ability to find partial matches. For example, I have been receiving messages from +4456874***, the last three digits can be dynamic. I want all these messages to be forwarded.
- Take another example. all SMS received from number containing ****8808** is to be forwarded.
- In short, please make provisions for matching Prefix, body, suffix of a sender ID.
3. SMS from custom sender IDs (sender ID that contains a text string, instead of numbers) was not forwarded.
- Example. I keep receiving "service messages" from UKING***, BRISRLY* etc.
- With the current version, its not possible to create a rule for forwarding these messages.
- Please implement partial matches (as described above) for custom sender IDs too.
It has been a wonderful effort already.
Big thanks to the developer.

Hi,
1- I've been planning on implementing dual SIM support, but unfortunately do not have a dual SIM device to test this on, and the Android emulator does not support it either. Would you like to volunteer to become an alpha-tester of this feature with your device?
2- I'll consider adding some sort of pattern matching for this. I first have to think how to make it user-friendly (not require knowledge of RegEx or anything like that).
3- You should be able to type in any kind of alphanumeric string in the contacts screen, and the app be able to handle it just fine. Are you saying that's what you did, but when a message came in, the app did not process it?

1. For Sure.
2. Take your time
3. Exact match works. any bit of deviation ruins it.

That's great! Could you send me a private message with your e-mail address? I will send you the alpha version of the app with the Dual-SIM feature when it's ready.
Hello there and thank you.
1. Is it possible to enable delivery report for sent messages?
2. In Dynamic Content config, I want to search for a specific keyword and if found, forward the message. If i leave the "replace" text empty, it will erase the keyword from message. It's good to have a checkbox to disable text replacement.

Hello there.
1. Delivery reports for SMS seem trivial. I'm not so sure about MMS though; I can't find any Android documentation for it. I'll have to look into it.
2. As far as the Dynamic Content, you can simply retype the keyword in the "replace" field. Essentially this translates to: find "my-keyword" and replace it with "my-keyword"; effectively leaving the message intact.
Regards.

I feel the current permission request steps are confusing and user may miss few of them. It will be easy if app can request the required access step by step while setting up the app.

Hi, I just released the new version (1.3.0) that includes this permissions workflow change you requested.

Excellent app.
1. Provision for SIM selection of SMS forwarding (should be a part of each rule).
2. The developer has already implemented setting Sender ID quite nicely (inclusion/exclusion) on screen no. 4 of config.
- But, it lacks the ability to find partial matches. For example, I have been receiving messages from +4456874***, the last three digits can be dynamic. I want all these messages to be forwarded.
- Take another example. all SMS received from number containing ****8808** is to be forwarded.
- In short, please make provisions for matching Prefix, body, suffix of a sender ID.
3. SMS from custom sender IDs (sender ID that contains a text string, instead of numbers) was not forwarded.
- Example. I keep receiving "service messages" from UKING***, BRISRLY* etc.
- With the current version, its not possible to create a rule for forwarding these messages.
- Please implement partial matches (as described above) for custom sender IDs too.

Hi, the latest version (1.3.0) was just released and includes these features.
Older Version
I really like Message Forwarder and it has work perfectly for me. BUT my work phone is VERY old and the current version of Message Forwarder will not work. How can I get an older version that will work with Andriod 5.1?

Hi. I sent you a private message about this.
The app stops forwarding after 5 or 6 messages. Unfortunately this app is exactly what I have been looking for an I have not been able to find a replacement.

Hi. Do the failed messages appear in the app's Messages Screen? Are you forwarding to phone numbers or e-mails? If e-mails, what proxy account are you using? Outlook or Gmail?
Message Fowarder
I was forwarding to 2 email addresses and one texting/ phone app. When the messages did get forwarded they did show up on the message tab. If they were not forwarded they did not. I am using a Gmail proxy. I changed my configuration to only my Gmail account. Thank you for quick response I hope this is an easy issue to rectify.
