I am interested in utilizing my Google Voice number. Right now, I can use Magicall (although I am looking into using alternative apps) to reroute all my outgoing calls through my Google Voice number.
I would like to use that number for my incoming calls as well, but in order to work with my providers "unlimited" calling to numbers of my choosing, I need to have my Google Voice number as my incoming caller ID. What I was thinking is that I could have the calls go to my phone (so I get their number), ignore it (having it forward to my Google Voice number), then when my Google Voice number calls, replace the CID with the last # and name, followed by deleting the missed call record.
Simply put:
Incoming call->phone->ignore/forward to GV->incoming GV to phone->replace CID->delete missed call->answer (or ignore)
I have search a lot of different places for an app that might be able to do this with no luck. There might be some other implementation that might work better, so I am free for suggestions.
Thank you!
Can anyone help with advice or an application for the following (if it doesnt exist it should-but it probably does!):-
I do some newspaper work and hence my phone number is in the paper every week. Im reviewing and it leaves me open to abuse and i occasionally get a mouthful from HIDDEN numbers.
It means that i now just dont answer any hidden numbers, which im sure several of which are genuine.
Is there an application/ way that i can make ALL incoming calls that have their number hidden IMMEDIEATLY go to a specific voice mail? (e.g. "Hi, this is **** ******. Hidden numbers are not accepted on this phone. Please ring from a revealed number, text or leave a vociemail and ill get back to you").
Have i any specific options???
GOOGLE AND INSTALL MAGICALL - it does everything you have asked for and more its awsome this is 100% the answer to your issue.!
An alternative may be is to call your mobile phone operator to see if they have a "block-the-blocker" (that's what it's called where I live) service: if the caller blocks/hides his/her phone number intentionally or by default, s/he is greeted by a system recording saying blocked ID calls are not accepted (followed by with instructions on how to unhide ID).
I think call firewall will do what you need, good luck.
Sounds like you may want to check out Google Voice.
Basically, you get a free phone number that forwards to the phone(s) of your choice, along with extensive call filtering options and a lot of other cool features.
It won't help you with the people who already have your number, but Google Voice allows you to set up call filters so that you can send unidentified callers straight to voicemail or reject them with a "hidden numbers are not accepted on this phone" message.
If you have a Google Voice number and a Windows Phone, you can get apps for dialing out through Google Voice so your GV number shows up when you return a call.
If you go this route, you'll want to check out the following apps:
iDialer (Google Voice version) - This program can be used to dial out normally through your cell phone, or initiate calls through Google Voice.
iContact - This program integrates iDialer with your phone contacts.
Green Button (sets up your phone's green "call" button to open iDialer instead of the default dialer)
Google Voice Easy SMS - sends texts from your phone through your Google Voice number.
I have this set up on my Tilt2, and I'm very pleased with it. Feel free to message me if you need any questions answered.

There is a service called Trapcall, google it. when somone calls you from an unlisted number all you have to do is press the call reject button then it will ring back with the callers unmasked number, and the caller never notices. its not an app and free.
Does anyone know how to forward call or divert call to another number?
*72+the 10 digit number+SEND to activate
*73 SEND to deactivate fowarding

Get google voice - WAY customizable, and you get a single number to administer many others. True multi use app.
Call forward through a PBX
Hello Everybody,
As a profane developer , I am trying the following on my htc T5353.
I have a central pbx at the office and I would like a software that when running, makes all calls going through the central in this way: I call a number, then I receive a tone, then I send the real number I want to call.
I don’t know how to “intercept” an outgoing call so to make it going through my routine.
Alternatively, I could split in two the green button (“TALK”) in the default call program and use one for standard calls and the other for calls going through my routine.
However, I don’t know how to modify the standard call-program.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

Def.ly google voice, you can't go wrong....
Googlevoice and include "googlevoice callback free".
If you need to retain your current phone numbers then you may need to configure free accounts with tricky configurations at:
Pbxes.com
It is intricate, but to get really fancy, you may include:
Sipdroid app, with ipkall.com, smsdiscount.org.
You really want to change your main usage to google voice, though..
Im looking for an alternative to the pathetic google voice dialer for when you have your bluetooth headset connected, something that will dictate texts or you can speak texts etc. also Id like to be able to call alot easier than having to wate 30 seconds for it to finish speaking.....
cheers
I have just picked up my new phone (Samsung Galaxy S4) and I'm trying my best to not EVER show my real number to ANYONE. I have set up google voice for phone calls and it seems to work nice but now I'm trying to work with my sms/mms messaging. I can send text's out via the google voice app and it works fine but I want a more integrated solution such as the google voice calling portion.
For example... ANYTIME any app needs to make a call or I choose to make a call it ALWAYS shows my google voice number. That way at no point (making a phone call) will anyone EVER see my real phone number. This is EXACTLY the effect I want.
For texting however, I open up the google voice app and send a text and it shows it's coming from my google voice number. That's want I want too. BUT, if I open the stock messaging app by mistake or another app sends a text (using the stock messaging app) it shows my real phone number. This is NOT the effect I want.
Any ideas?

You can call your service provider and have sms/mms deactivated.

How then would I get text messages?
Um, if people only have your Google Voice number, that is the number they will text to. Only drawback is it's SMS only.

Well obviously having people text my google number would send texts that way... I'm saying how will calling my service provider and disabling mms/sms have any effect on getting people to use my google number? I guess you were alluding to the fact that if people do have my real number then sending a text would be pointless. Which is true, but last time I checked when you send a text to a number that does not support sms/mms you get no response back saying something like "sorry no such text number". I would never know the other user even sent the text in the first please.
Drawback... Wow! I thought I could get MMS via google voice. Thanks for the tip!
