in my country, hiding your own number when making call has been totaly restricted that is why you can't make calls, because you can make a prank call out of it. just follow what your network provider's policy. Read and Understand there Terms and Condition.
I would find this type of app very useful!
I work in Law Enforcement and I would love to be able to call complainants on my cell phone. HOWEVER, I don't want them to have my number as they would then be able to call me ANY TIME and or harass me if they so desired.
I would love to be able to call them and have them see my Command Center's Office number instead of my cell phone number. That way they could still call me back - by leaving me a message at the Center.
A previous person who posted stated that this might be illegal in his country. I don't know if it is illegal in the US. BUT, I suspect that it would only be illegal if it were being abused.
The apps I found in the Market were only through a service that charged a fee for any call over 2 minutes.
Does anyone know of an app that does NOT use a separate service?

I have no idea if this is possible, or if there is a utility out there for this but i am looking for a way to only allow calls to numbers in the telephone address book.
Does anybody know of a utility?
This will give me central control of who users can/cant call using the management software that i have.
Thanks in advance,
Noodle.
I myself wonder how I can restrict calls from one caller only; like to divert a given number directly to my voicemail..?
I never did find the software i was looking for.
The problem i have is fixed dial sim's dont work correctly on XDA's. Aparently its a problem with the sim card voltages or something.
Ive given up on it
Give Novosec SmartFilter a try, very cool proggy but it will not divert to another number but will give you full control of who can call and when.
Sounds good. I'll give it a try.
(I'm really bothered by a client who calls essentially on Monday morning and Friday afternoon
hi prerna
novosec smartfilter works fine with me
if interested gimme ur email id i shall send it to u

Did somebody know how to disable functionality in Phone mode that is sending Your Phone number ID, to the call receiver?....or in other words...is it possible make anonimous phone calls?..
tnx
There are 2 ways. Ask your provider to permanently switch off caller id or go to Start - Settings - Personal - Phone - Services - Caller ID - Get Settings - No one

Of course, you realize that the Cell Phone company still knows you made the call, and whom you called? So it is anonymous only to the receiving party, not in any permanent sense.
Yeah, we should fix that too ! No more bills (Big OR small) :lol:
should be interesting in fact....aha....thanks to ZERIMAR... i was able to redefine the settings avoiding to send ID nr. to my frends......
Didn't the GSM network have anoption never to show Call-ID, unless you put some code in front of the tel.number ?
Or was it the other way around ?
Instead of permanently disable Call ID forwarding through Phone->Settings as suggested, in Italy we have also a code you can put before the number you're calling that disable the ID just for that call. The code is *06#. Maybe other countries are using the same code too, don't know.
Isidoro
Yea it is but if i want t permanently hidden , i should redefine all numbers in phone memory adding this code in front...and then if somebody is calling me, ID is not going to be linked to the number in phone memory......better set up everything in the the phone functions directly....
OK BEFORE THIS GETS MOVED MODS PLEASE LEAVE THIS HERE FOR A BIT THE PEOPLE IN WIZARD AND HERMES SECTIONS HAVE ALOT OF KNOWLEDGE thats why i put it here instead of in general
with that being said How Do You Change what displayes on your caller id i have cingular(i manage 2 wireless stores at this time ny so what i say is just my opinon i sell everthing but verizon not trying to slander)
back to topic cingular tells me they can make it unknown and still see my number but most cingular customer reps are stupid its funny that we know more then them lol) i want it to say Mike is there any way to do this maybe call verizon i was thinking cause i believe all numbers go through the verizon swithT
if anyone knows any hack or trick pm me or post here
thanks
sorry mods for double post and wrong section leave here for a bit till it gets answered thanks
no there is no way to do it. the only possible way would be for you to infect the switchboard with a virus that when it sees your imei or esn depending on your gsm/cdma status talking to a cell tower it broadcasts the caller id information from a preprogrammed selection that you put in the code of the virus. but like i said. unless you wanna goto jail for infecting a switchboard like that then my answer is still no.

Don't quote me on this but I think cingular has a feature now that allows you to prevent your name from showing only. It's called "Calling name block" and it is a free service. What actually shows is the number and "wireless caller". Otherwise....(I have a 8525) and I can go to phone options to select or deselect to BLOCK my caller ID. This will block everything. I hope this answers your questions.

Also to block your outgoing Caller ID info dial #31# before the number and it will show unavailable. I put my most address book entries this way.
... Or become a POP or telco provider, a little like Skype has done - it'll show SMSes which you send from your skype client as being sent from your Skype profile name when the recipient views them. Which is pretty funky.
Of course, I immediately tried to change my skype name to "Your Mum", because I'm infantile like that but unfortunately it didn't change it. Still pretty cool, though.
i have started using my S4 at work
im a cable technician, when i call customers im blocking my number using #31# before the actual number of the client for obvious reasons- its a big company, anything has to go through their customer service center
the thing is, when i call a client using that prefix, its gone in the call log, so when i need to call him again( which often happen) i need to dial the number again which is very uncomfortable as im calling dozens of customers everyday, my older work phone was a simple J105 sony ericsson , which used to saved the number in the call log just as it was, smartphones for some reason, dont...
is this a setting i can change or some other dialer i should use ?
please? anyone?
Maybe try other dialer and contact apps...
I am trying to make my first app. I want it to have no icon in the apps tray and be hidden, with a name like Android system.
I want it to block sms from a specific number, and possibly forward it to another number, without the origional recipitent seeing it period. I want it to block incoming calls from the same specific number and not notify the origal recipitent of call blocked. I want it to block outgoing sms to that same specific number without notifying the sender. And/or send that message intended for the origional number to a secoundary number. And same with calls, i would like calls to that specific number to be blocked and not notify the caller that their call is not going to the specific number.
Do you get what im going for here? I want an app made specifically to install on one specific persons android, to block all contact between that phone, and one specific other persons number, without notifying either party their communication of choice is not reaching the other person. With the possibility of the transactions actually going to a 3rd number soley to be used as a "monitor" if you will.
Can anyone help me code this, itll be my first app, ive never done such. Or if its easy for a senior coder, could you throw the app together for me?
Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated. Honestly. I would like to learn to do this myself in the future, so just help with setting up proper code is good enough!

This whole thing smells very "it puts the lotion in the basket"
relationship counseling maybe?
Cause what I read is. I don't want my significant other talking to person X so i wanna control it.
Creepy..... Very creepy
This requires a rooted device and it's pretty much illegal as far as im aware. For educational purpose:
A service(Services are not shown to the user directly) will be your sms listener and an activity will perform the sms actions.
You can possibly copy, resend and delete incoming messages in the activity. You pretty much wanna stay away from other people inboxes :}
