someone should develop an app that not only restrict outgoing calls to a specific number, but also restrict outgoing texts also.
this would be a good intervention tool for ppl who cant stop calling or texting someone who doesnt want that attention
leme know if and when there is such an app that includes both feature
It's not possible to intercept outgoing sms on stock roms.
Cyanogenmod 7 has phone goggles which does what you are asking. I do not know any app that can realise this.

Is this still true currently? I'm looking for a way to block outgoing text messages, since I get charged for these. I'm rooted, and on Android 4.1.2. Thank you.

Hi Guys,
Is there any possible way to block an annoying friend from sending SMS and calling, just on a tempary level?
Cheers
I needed to block someone, i wont go into the reason why but if you want to do it permanently..... i had to change my number, and it cost me roughly £30 (with Orange), not sure about temporary. If you are able to block a specific number from calling or texting you, what's to stop the person just using a different phone!
I would think that you'd have to contact your carrier and have them block the number.
there are an software called call firewall that block the incoming calls and mesages from the number you choose
How about this Shareware stuff?

Thanks guys,
It's just someone that is currently being over bearing at the moment
Have you tried Call Firewall?
I use Magicall -- works a treat. You can set many parameters so you have a lot of control on what goes on. Has always worked for me on many ROMs.

With me everything is working properly when the phone is locked only on the screen touch a send a message and that's all
Hmmm,...I have it checkd but I don't believe anybody ever received an sms from me when I reject a call. Weird,..
Try QSMS To Buddy:FullFeatured free app from android market
It takes care of the situation you have explained. It not only allows you to send sms during rejected incoming calls. But it also allows the same when someone else rejects your calls (outgoing rejected): a feature never seen before.
Interestingly you have ability to modify the messages right when you are rejecting the call and sending the sms. e.g. instead of saying "call you back later" you can change it to "call you back in a min"

QText app has been on my Fav list
QText is the most professional application in the category. I tried many apps and none of them allow you to do below two things
1. Change the message before sending it: e.g. send "will call in a minute" instead of "will call you back later"
2. Send text for outgoing calls as well.
Auto text widget is also included.

Hi everybody,
I had this function before upgrading to JB 4.1.2, but nolonger now?
I wonder if someone can tell me how to get it back.
Thanks.
Works fine on WM6.5 & if need enhance the possible options further then Maicall is probably the answer as can handle sms replies as a whole & individually per number etc & rules can be listed in order of checking.
Far better than any of the Android options I have tried & reminds me why my daily work device is still an HD2 on WM6.5.x .
Hi,
This is my first posting here and this forum looks promising. I just bought Samsung i5800 from Amazon and the phone looks beautiful and has lot of nice features. I'm on T-Mobile network with no data plan. I have couple of questions on the general phone usage, installing VOIP softphone software and other issues. I apologize if my questions were already asked and answered. I searched the forum but couldn't find specific answers to my questions.
1. Firstly, the phone is running little bit sluggish. Opening and closing apps seems to be tad slow. I checked up the Manage Services and killed some of them but the others I felt were important and left it out. There wasn't a lot of services running though. How to fix this issue?
2. The phone is running on Android 2.1. Do you guys know if there is a official Android 2.2 Froyo update from Samsung for this phone? If not, where do I get 2.2 ROM. Will installing 2.2 make the phone run faster?
3. On the VOIP softphone front, I set up a new sipgate account and also a Google Voice account. I installed the free csipsimple opensource software from Android market and configured it. I don't have a independent dialer to go thru csipsimple. When I use the regular phone dialer from the phone to call somebody, csipsimple is popping up and asking me if I want to go thru it or use the Mobile itself and I choose csipsimple and it works extremely well. I hope it is using my Wifi network. I checked my T-Mobile account and there was no activity in the call log for the calls I made thru csipsimple. Now, here is the problem. When I call somebody, the other party receives the call as "Unknown". How to fix this issue? Should they be seeing my google voice number? The other big issue is I'm not getting any incoming calls thru VOIP. As I had mentioned earlier, I don't have GV dialer. Do I have to buy GV Dialer ($1.99) to make the incoming calls work? All I need is to have free incoming and outgoing calls when I'm on Wifi network. Can somebody please help me on this?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have flashed my phone with the new micromod gingerbread ROM and i'm testing VoIP (SIP) but it doesn't work on 3G
this native functionnality suck's
Well, as this module is in AOSP it should be quite easy to change this.
I guess Google couldn't allow SIP calls on 3G because of the operators.
It's open sourced, i'm sure someone will get it to work with 3g.
Stop your crying
-edit-
haha i was beat to it
Anyway, it's great to have it integrated in the system.
I didn't test it extensively, but from what I saw it works well.
Question:
When you call out, what number does it show as caller ID?
Your cell number?
Google Voice number?
SIP number?
Other?
any progress on this?

caller id is transmitted / enforced by your voip provider... it has nothing to do with the sip client :/

My understanding as well.
To still get the free voip calling (via Gizmo5 or whoever else), we would still need to use the GVoice Callback hack/app to get an outgoing call to request an incoming call on the SIP line (if that makes sense). It would just now be answered by the stock phone app rather than a third-party application. Which should give better in-call volume than with sipdroid/csipsimple?

There is a solution to the problem.
Now we just need the devs to cook this into the rom.

Got a ****ty old recycled spam ridden Sprint number with collection calls all day. I would love to find an answer because do not call registry doesn't do anything.
Ask Sprint for a new number? Block each collection call as it arrives.... unless the numbers are computer generated like telemarketers, there has to be a finite limit to the numbers they use? Turn on do not disturb? Set a phone ringtone that is in fact silence?
Paul
For blocking spam calls you may want to check out the app I use which you can find here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mistergroup.shouldianswerpersonal&hl=en_US . It does ask you to set it as the default phone app but you can always do that and use another app without any issue. Each time a number calls that's not listed in their system it gives you a pop up which would allow you to set your own rating and block the number, Normally the way its setup it will block numbers with 3 or more bad reviews but you can always set an override on the popup after the call or through the app itself as it lists numbers who have called for numbers so that the number is blocked next time they call. You can also set it so that only numbers from your contacts can call but if you do that then you may have trouble checking your voicemail as that's not a number most people have in their contacts. It has a dark mode and some other options as well that may be of help to you in reducing spam calls. Its also free as well.
