Is is truly unbelievable to me that in this day and age such an essential phone function could have been overlooked! I have been searching for days and days and found NOTHING or got stupid responses such as "use Google" (Online only, uses Data and for US Citizens only) or "use voicemail" (expensive cellular provider subscription add-on)... I mean, come on! When even the cheapest home phones can be gotten with built in answering machines, how come this essential feature is nowhere to be seen on android phones?
What's the deal, what's the technical hangup, what's the problem? Can anyone explain the REASON why there are NO call answering machine-like apps of any kind out there?

Im looking for the same thing and can't find it too!
Here is my need. I have a business phone number and my personal cell phone number. All my customers should call me to my business number which I can set to auto-forward to my cell only at the time I want to. But some of my customers know my cell phone number and they keep having this bad habit of calling me on it instead of my business phone number.
I'm looking for a app that will be tracking in the background the caller id number of incoming calls, if the number is a on list of unwanted that I have set, it will auto-answer, play an audio file recorded by me (like: "Please dial 111-222-3333 to reach me, thanks you") and then hang-up.
I don't feel alone with the need of a solution like this. And there are apps that can auto-answer call according to the caller id and there are apps that can play audio in a call, I don't see why it could not be technically possible to combine both.
wow
can't belive it, i was looking for the same and found several threads like this one, that's sad
let's hope sth comes up
Yeah, I used to have this function on my old fliphone from way back in 2002! Also, on my Windows Mobile phones after that...
Exactly. My nokia flip from ages ago (ran symbian OS) has an app on it called "Advanced Answering Machine" or "Advanced Call Manager" or something similar.
I could set it up so that it would direct calls to different greetings depending on the caller ID. An example of this is, I wont accept calls from "unknown" or "blocked" etc numbers. ACM/AAM would handle this perfectly. It would answer the phone, play the Telstra (thats a telco in australia) message "the number you have called is not available from this service." twice, then hang up. Later on I found out I was missing some important calls (the message confused some people such as the landlord who had a blocked number) so I changed it to "I do not accept calls from blocked numbers. To unblock your number, dial 1831 in front of your number. It wont cost you any more". This fixed the problem.
It was also programmed to answer calls after 30 seconds of ringing and play a standard greeting then take a message.
It was a very versatile program. I could (for example) divert certain calls to a party line if I didnt want calls from that particular number; however I didnt, as the diverted leg would cost me a fortune.
Its a shame on these advanced handsets today that such a simple, commonly available on landline phones, feature is not available. I can control televisions, fly remote controlled toys and vapourize components with a big bank of capacitors over bluetooth using my phone, yet it cant perform a simple answering machine function.
From what I hear the API that handles these functions is not directly accessable to developers; probably because "malware" could hook in and dial high priced premium calls and rack up huge bills all the while the phone owner not knowing until the monthly account comes in.
I did see one answerphone somewhere but it utilised the speaker so if it took a call (for example while your at the pub) the caller would not hear your greeting, or on the train everyone around you would hear your greeting and then the callers message, so not very practical. It would NOT work properly while the phone was on mute.
xperia phones come with buit-in answering machine feature. or use jail broken iphone and u have half a dozen apps which can do it.
unfortunately in android noway.. even if u r rooted.. no way
Suddenly out of nowhere I'm experiencing dialer problems on moto g xt1033.
*sometimes I cannot pick incoming calls even after swiping on screen.
*even if I am able to attend the calls, calls automatically get handed up after a few seconds
*even if I am able to talk on a call, after some time I am not able to hear anything from the other side, and the other person also sometimes doest hear anything.
*when I make a call, sometimes i dont even hear a ring, just a silence and the other person picks up phone, unable to talk to me.
WHAT IS GOING ON ???!!!
I dont want to reset my phone. I've data that I CANNOT lose.
There seems to be no way to backup data on moto G without rooting, my device is not unlocked and not rooted.
They say Helium backup doesnt work, and I dont know about holobackup.
Please tell me any solution, fast!!!
Hi all,
My son ordered this phone from deal extreme and we knew that it wouldn't have total support for 4G frequencies in our area, but we only needed text and telephone, not data. When the phone arrived, it connected to the network fine and he was able to send texts so we thought all was well since, as I understand it, SMS rides on the voice data packets so if SMS works, so should voice.
We soon noticed that he could not make or receive telephone calls. We spent quite a bit of time playing with settings on the phone and calling Virgin Mobile (Canada) tech support. They, too, thought that since he could SMS, he should be able to call. They could see that the IMEI was attempting to make calls through their network and they added it to his account but to no avail.
I am currently trying to get the phone replaced through deal extreme, but I've been asked if it can be repaired. What do you guys think?
Here is a video of the problem.

HI all,
My gf's phone behaves in a really strange way...
During an audio call using common communicators, say skype, whatsapp, messenger, if a new incoming gsm/lte connection is coming, then it automatically takes priority over communicator call. Communicator call is put on hold.
What is most annoying, is that you are not able to inform the person on other side of the line that there is a new incoming connection - no, the second incoming connection is appearing on screen, current connection is put on hold. To clarify, user can chose whether to accept or cancel new incoming call, but the 'communicator' call is already on hold;(
I find this most annoying coming from iphone environment, where I have full control on all live and incoming connections and where no connection is prioritised. When im on a whatsapp audio call and a regular gsm connection is coming, I can let other person know that I have incoming connection and decide to answer, cancel or put current call on call. I find this rather normal behaviour. Unfortunately this is not the case on my gf's phone which drives me nuts
Please let me know if this is case of specific ROM, or android os in general? I hope you could guide me toward an easy solution, hopefully not requiring reinstalling new rom. Many thanks!
Phone is running MIUI Global 10.2.1.0, Android 8.0.0.
Greetings everyone.
I've been googling for a problem I have and weirdly didn't find any answer, so I sincerely apologize for troubling you today.
I'm looking for any app or method to auto-play a voice message whenever I receive a call from a specific number.
(I work in a call center of sorts where I receive countless calls and have to introduce myself in a long and tedious introductory process, most of the times turns out the caller dialed the wrong extension and it's too much of a hassle for each and every call. Also, vocal chord polyps are a real nightmare)
I tried an app called MacroDroid and for some reason it wouldn't work most of the time, basically works once and stops afterwards. Got to set it up with the number I receive calls from and to play a pre-recorded voice note I made but it wouldn't repeat after the first time it works
Can anybody suggest any method to achieve what I need??
