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

The messages have stopped, which by itself is a great relief......earlier by the time i had waded through the layers of OK i was missing calls! Thanks talkative.
But the beeping still continues. Is there any way to turn that off too or have i missed something in the settings?
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.
s
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.
Thanks in advance.

+1 Does it work on Jelly Bean too ?
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

Source Code?!
Great work.
If it's not too much bother, is the source code available? I'm trying to implement a USSD interceptor and I was wandering if I can use your code as a starting point.
If it's not open-sourced but you are OK with sharing it please send it to me @
[email protected]

If it's not feasible, sorry for bothering you.
Hi mSobhy90,
I'll clean it up and put it on GitHub in a few days, I love open source!
In the interim, everything you need is here:

(You can translate it quite well with Google Translate)
I want to link to that post so the original finder of the hook point gets credit.

How do I install whatsapp on my nexus 7 4G without rooting?
check out here
Easier Way To Get Whatsapp on Your Nexus 7
I think theres an easier way to do this...just follow the following steps:-
1. Download Text Me! Free Texting & Call app from the playstore. Im a new user so i cant really post links, but just search google generlly. Since literally google knows everything...
2. Fill out all the details and and get the new phone number assigned to your nexus 7.
3. Download the Whatsapp apk for your Nexus 7...this can be downloaded directly from the whatsapp official website.
4. After installing and opening the app, select your country and use the phone number from the Text Me! app as the number for the Whatsapp application.
5. Wait a few minutes, an SMS would be sent to your Text Me! app. Ignore this and wait for the Whatsapp to give the 'SMS verification failed" message..."thats not all"...
6.Select the Call option...and wait for the voicemail on the Text Me! app...listen to the voicemail for the code and insert into the space...and there you have it...Whatsapp on your Nexus 7.
This should work even if you have the app on your phone. All you have to do is ignore the SMS verification and use the voicemail or call option.

Hello. I have been working on this kik for awhile from now. Our mod is based on Pikek with some extra features.
All the info about Day will be down below:
Scroll to very bottom for download link
Complete list of features:
APPEARANCE
Square Pictures - This makes the profile pictures square instead of round.
Marquee Names - If the name of a user or group is long enough, the name will scroll.
Hide Dividers - Chat Dividers will be hidden from the main conversations screen.
Custom Hint - Changes the text that appears in the text input on a chat screen.
Text Size - Changes the font size of the chat. Note: it doesn't adjust the bubble size very well.
Text Font - Changes the font of the chat.
Bubble Opacity - Changes how visible the chat bubble is.
Incoming Shape - Changes the shape of the chat bubble for messages you receive.
Outgoing Shape - Changes the shape of the chat bubble for messages you send.
Incoming Bubble Color - Changes the color of the chat bubble for messages you receive.
Outgoing Bubble Color - This is just a shortcut to the Outgoing Bubble Color settings already in Kik.
Incoming Text Color - Changes the color of the text for messages you receive.
Outgoing Text Color - Changes the color of the text for messages you send.
THEME
Theme Color - Changes the main color of the App.
Theme Hex - Enter a custom Hex Color to use as the app's main color.
Light Hex - Switches a custom theme's text color to black.
Enable Hex - Enables a custom theme based on what is entered in Theme Hex.
Note: Devices on Lollipop or higher may experience a bug on the conversations screen. If this occurs, turn off 'Enable Hex' then set the theme color to 'Clear.'
BACKGROUND
Background Image - Allows for a custom background to be applied via gallery.
Enable Background - Enables the selected Custom background.
MEDIA
Fake Camera - This will make pictures you send from the gallery appear as if you took them with the camera. Note: The auto send bug from Pikik is fixed!
No Save - When someone receives media (image or video) from you, the option to save it will be disabled.
Auto Loop - When someone receives a video from you, it will automatically repeat (start from the beginning again after the video is over).
Auto Mute - When someone receives a video from you, it will be muted by default. Note: They can still unmute the video if they choose to.
Auto Play - When someone receives media a video from you, it will start playing automatically. Note: They can still disable this by going to Settings -> Chat Settings -> Auto Play Videos.
No Forward - When someone receives media (image or video) from you, the option to forward it will be disabled. Note: They can still save it (unless No Save is enabled) and send it to another group.
TIMESTAMPS
All Timestamps - This will show a timestamp above every message (including join/leave messages).
Exact Timestamps - This show the exact time instead of approximations such as "a minute ago."
Past Timestamps - This option is just for fun. It will make your messages appear to have been sent on December 31st, 1969. Note: It may push your chat to the bottom of the receivers conversation list.
PER-CHAT
Global Settings - Pikek has the ability to change read receipts and typing notifications per-chat. This means that you can make one chat (PM or group) see S-check (sent receipts) and another chat will not. This option applies the next two options to all chats regardless. To access the per-chat options, disable this option and go to the chat information screen for the chat you want to configure.
Disable Typing - When you type it will not say "XYZ is typing..."
Read Receipts - Normal: the other person will see when you read (R) their message. This is the default behaviour for Kik Messenger. Delievered: They will know their message was delievered (D) to your device. This would normally mean your device has received their message but you haven't opened it yet. Stealth: the other person will see that their message was sent (S) to Kik. This would normally mean your device is not turned on, connected to the Internet, you are signed out, or otherwise not able to receive messages.
YOUR ACCOUNT
Save Pikek Settings - All Settings will not be wiped when logging out of Kik.
Save Per-Chat - This will save all per-chat options and they will persist through resets. This is useful for switching accounts periodically and maintaining your per-chat settings.
BATCH OPTIONS
On the conversation list screen there is an icon to left of the Kik Browser icon (on the top right), pressing this will bring up the following four actions:
Clear all chats - This will permanently delete all messages from all chats including private messages. Note: This does nothing to New Chats. If you click the New Chats bar at the bottom, there will be a recycle bin icon at the top right. Pressing that icon will remove all new chats.
Mute all chats - This will mute (forever) all chats. Note: This does nothing to New Chats.
Unmute all chats - This will unmute all chats. Note: This does nothing to New Chats.
Mark all read - This will remove the blue dot on all chats, indicating there is no unread messages. Note: This does nothing to New Chats. Bug: Force closing after using this option will make it only temporary and the unread status will return upon reopening Pikek. This does NOT send any read receipt (S, D, R) to the chats.
LONG PRESS CONVO
Clear - This will permanently delete all messages in this chat.
Save - This will save a transcript to your SD card or internal storage. When you use this option a toast will come up telling you the file path and file name. Note: The file name is the timestamp when the transcript was saved and "_TRANSCRIPT.txt"
IN CHAT
Pi icon (top right) - This is just a shortcut to the Pikek settings.
Long Press Message (Reply) - this copies the message to the input text box and adds two new lines.
Long Press Message (Kick) - This will kick the user from the group. Note: this option only shows up if the user is able to be kicked by you.
Long Press Message (Ban) - This will ban the user from the group. Note: this option only shows up if the user is able to be banned by you.
Chat Info - If Global Settings are disabled, an option to toggle typing notifications and your preferred read receipt will appear.
COMMANDS
!commands - This will list available commands.
!comhelp - This will provide usage instructions on custom commands.
!bothelp - This will provide usage instructions on using Kik Bots.
!c - This will change the ASCII text after the "!c " into Regional Indicator Symbols. This is just for fun.
!purge - This will remove all possible users from a group very quickly.
!unban - This will clear the ban list in a group provided you're an admin.
OTHER
No Pull - Normally in the conversation list pulling down from the top will open your camera so that you can scan a Kik Code. This option disables that. Note: You can still use Kik Codes while this is enabled.
Open Tray - Normally after inserting one smiley, the tray closes. This keeps the tray open so that you can add more than one smiley at a time in less time.
Anti Loggers - It is possible to get your IP Address logged by receiving and clicking a carefully crafted Kik Card. This option prevents that as the expense of not being able to open legitimate Kik Cards.
Enable Links - Often times other users will send malicious URLs. This option will prevent you from accidentally clicking one. Further, there can be issues with some URLs making Kik lag and crash. This will not happen if this option is not checked.
Use Browser - Any parsed links will not be opened through Kik's browser, but instead through your device's default web browser.
Privacy Mode - This will make the preview on the conversation list screen always say "..." so that a shoulder-surfer won't have any idea what is going on in the other groups.
Do Not Disturb - Enabling this will leave any group you are added to. This is great for getting out of "Kik Jails" and leaving groups at night without worrying about being added back. Note: The groups where it says "Just You" is not a Pikek bug, that's a Kik bug.
TROLL
Auto Read - Overrides Global Settings and automatically sends Read Scripts to all users.
Auto Reply (BETA) - Every time you recieve a PM, a message is automatically sent back to the user. This message is currently not changeable.
Auto Meme (BETA) - Every time you recieve a PM, the sent message is automatically sent back to the user who sent it.
Auto Annoy (BETA) - Secret
EMOTIONS
Ghost Emoticons - This is just for fun. Clicking this will add the standard set of smileys to the options but they are gray instead of yellow. Note: clicking it more than once will add the ghost smileys to the options more than once. You can get rid of them by opening the smiley shop (the + symbol in the smiley tray).
All Emoticons - Sometimes a user will lose the smileys they legitimately purchased with Kik Points and is left with no way to recover them. This option will unlock ALL smileys and is ONLY to be used by those who have previously purchased them legitimately with Kik Points. By using this option you agree that you have legitimately purchased ALL smileys with Kik Points and you take full responsibility of ALL consequences resulting from the use of this option.

There's no need to get triggered , I was obviously joking . Failure to determine authorship results in possible false positives so I decided to joke about it . I find it rather odd that providing a link for the apk file didn't make it evident that it was a joke.

It is amazing work. Unfortunately, Kik team keeps on patching the mods. Many times the Fake Camera option has been patched, but thanks to the amazing devs, we are able to keep the feature going.
On April 1st, 2017 timeframe they made it so modded kik clients cannot join public groups (the ones with hashtags), also they set put a rule, that newly joined members cannot send any media(pictures, videos, stickers, etc) for 24 hours after they join the group. Please look into this. Thanks
I love you guys, you make Kik a wonderful experience.
