anyone can recommend me a good call blocker ?
that is able to block unknown no. and contacts not in contact lists.
when calls comes in, it will direct to voicemail immediately w/o ringing
I use "mr number call block" from the market, blocks unknown and numbers not in contacts and send them straight too voicemail. Its free too.

So I keep getting calls from auto-dialers coming as "Unknown" on Caller ID.. I answer and it's that 5 second delay then someone in a foreign country asking me to sign up for a newspaper or refinance. I want to ELIMINATE these calls. I have a block list that works good in Android, but it doesn't allow me to ass Unknown to blocked calls... I saw some posts from several years back, but nothing recent. Is there anything good out there today that I can install to block unknown\unavailable calls from coming through to my phone?
Thanks!

Yeah I saw that but the screen still flashes on and shows the missed call, even when I click delete it from call log. I wish there was one what didn't even process the call, like the built in blocker.
This should be an advanced feature of Google Voice as well. Anyone been getting calls from 0000123456 recently? Haven't been able to pick up yet, but I have missed two calls from this number now. Saw somewhere it might be skype caller. Wonder what could be done by porting Asterik into the Android kernel and having some nifty virtual PBX features built in!

The one that drives me nuts is the calls from Indian telemarketers.... US telemarketers are required by law to send ANI with their calls, but calls coming from outside the US don't have to comply, or aren't able to be enforced. I say if someone doesn't present their #, I ought to be able to reject them from getting through to my phone.
We in India are also facing major trouble with telemarketing calls & after being put to notice by the supreme court they have now started sending text sms, the best defense I have found against this is "Extreme Call Blocker Droid" this can block all private numbers or you can specify a list of starting numbers eg. block all numbers starting with 800
*Hangup mode block voice mail
*Block anonymous/private/unknown/blacklist calls
*Block unknown/blacklist SMS,
*Built-in private SMS mail box hide private txt msg
*Schedule on Google calendar to decide when to block.
*Hide private number calls in/out, no call log.

You can customize it to your hearts content & have a peace full day.
To trace the callers we have a site in India which you can use for tracking all kinds of numbers & text IDs.

then there are free apps too like blacklist-free & many other with similar features.

The one I use is called Easy Filter Call blocker. It can block calls and sms messages, including unknown numbers. You can set it to block them without notifying you if you want it to.

Block unknown Callers
You can block unknown callers by using some advanced phones.
in these phones you can either blacklist some selected numbers or reject all unknown mobile numbers (numbers which are not added in your SIM / phone's phonebook will get rejected).
Root call blocker pro. Its in the market.. Works great and doesnt show the caller, it just rejects it right away in the background and you can have notification of when calls are blocked. Also has sms block

I have AT&T on my GN2 and have Caller ID blocking per line activated on my account.
When I was with Sprint I could have this feature on my phone and it would allow me to block my Google Voice number with this feature on my account and unblock it with *82.
When I make outbound calls with this feature on through Google Voice, it always blocks the number no matter what.
How can I remedy this?
hi all,
I've been getting a lot of telemarketing calls. Unfortunately it's hard to block them all since they spoof the # they are calling from. But a big chunk of them have no number at all, they just show up as unknown.
So i went into settings, call, call reject,
I set call reject mode to 'reject calls on list' and in the rejection list i checked the option to reject all private numbers. That doesn't seem to have helped though since i just got another call from 'unknown'.
There are no numbers in the rejected number list. I've actually just been adding the spam numbers to a 'blocked' contact i created and selected the option to send all calls from that contact to voicemail.
Is there something else i have to do to block unknown callers?
This is on an LG-LS970 running stock rom android 4.1.2
I use my Google Voice number as my main phone number. Recently, I've been getting telemarketers calling my carrier number (T-Mobile).
When the call comes in on my phone, from what I can tell, there's no way for me to know if it's going to my GV number or my carrier number (the only way I can tell is checking my GV app afterwards). I'm looking for a way to have the phone automatically reject or block all incoming calls to my carrier number or to just have the phone not ring/vibrate when a call comes in on that number.
FWIW, my device is a OnePlus One and I'm running Android 5.0.2
