Hi,
Anybody knows how to reject an incoming call with an SMS?
I used to do it all the time with my Nokia, but cant understand how to do it in nexus 1...
thanks
Reject++
If you are looking for an app to let you reject incoming calls with predefined or custom SMS and setup a reminder to return a call as well..
so check Reject++
You can:
- Reject a call with SMS, Reminder, Or Both.
- Convenient Slider on top of incoming call screen, slider it up and go with Reject++
- Smart SMS Templates with "Tags"
- Smart Reminders Scheduling Engine.
- Works with mobile screen locked or OFF
- Notifications works no matter if the app is active or not.
Check much more Features & Screenshots for Reject++
Ah, good to know. I was looking for that functionality as well...
Cool! I've been looking for this type of app. Thanks!

ICS has this feature out-of-the-box. If you are willing to install an alpha ROM then go get it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366897
Yeah.. this ICS rom is awesome (except no camera). I'm using the SMS reject feature.
Nice lil app

So..I have a set up that i'm trying to get going with NFC tags..this is not nexus 4 specific per se, but I'm using it with my nexus 4, so here i am
I've been programming nfc tags without a problem with nfc task launcher...which works amazing
there is one thing that i'd like to do that i can't fully figure out
I want to set it up so that when my phone is connected to bluetooth, that it will auto-reply with an SMS
I have a "car mode" tag where it turns off wifi, turns on bluetooth...i'd like it to also do an auto reply to any sms with a message
i currently have tasker and i can set up a profile that will do the auto reply (although i can't figure out the "only send reply when connected with bluetooth" part..but i'm getting close). The problem is that it's a profile, and not a task...so even if i use nfc task launcher to turn on the "task" in tasker...it's the profile that determines if it will automatically send the sms and not the task
is there a way to turn tasker profiles on and off with an nfc task launcher?
Is there an easier way that i'm not getting on how to make my phone auto reply with an sms through nfc task launcher's tags? (llama? launching one of those auto reply apps?)
thanks for the help..
bump for anyone that might know that did not see the thread...
The following was taken from: tasker.wikidot.com/auto-replysms-driving
First we need to setup a profile that will automatically respond to any SMS that we receive. We will later disable it until it is called by our other profile for when the Car Cradle is active.
Profile (SMS Responder)
Click New then Event
Next Click Phone then Received SMS
Make sure to leave the Sender & Message fields blank and click Done
Now we will customize the SMS Responder profile to send SMS responses to everyone except the last sender. This will ensure that a person who texts you twice in a row won't be bombarded with auto-reply texts.
Click the + then Tasker
Select the option If from the menu
Input %LASTSMS in the first box
Ensure the !~ (doesn't match) is selected as the operator
In the last box input %SMSRF
Click Done.
Click the + then Phone
Select the option Send SMS from the menu
Input %SMSRF as the number
For the message input whatever you want to be set back to the sender.
An Example:
Auto-Response: Hi, %SMSRN, I'm currently driving. I'll respond when I can.
If you want to see if the auto-response actually sent make sure to check the box "Store in Messaging App"
Click Done
Click the + then Variable
Select the option Variable Set from the menu
Input %LASTSMS in field Name
Input %SMSRF as the To field
Click Done.
Click the + then Tasker
Select the option End If from the menu
Click Done.
We are almost done with this profile.
Make sure you disable the profile by returning to the main menu
and clicking and holding on the profile name and select Disable
This ensures that tasker won't automatically send an auto-response to everyone that texts you.
Profile (Car Mode)
Click New then Application
Select Car Cradle
Click Done.
Click the + then Tasker
Click Profile Status
Input SMS Responder and select set to On
Click Done.
Click the Enter Task then Add Exit Task
Click the + then Variable
Select the option Variable Clear
Enter %LASTSMS in the Name field.
Click Done.
Click + then Tasker
Select the option Profile Status
Input SMS Responder and select Set to Off
Click Done.
The final two steps clear the %LASTSMS variable and turn off the profile when you take your phone out of the car dock. You want to clear the variable so that the next time your phone is placed in the car dock, everyone will receive the auto response at least once.
If the variable isn't cleared, if Person A texts you the next time the phone is in the dock, and Person A also happens to be the last person who sent you a text before removing the phone from the dock last time, they will not get an auto-response.
You can add other functionality to this profile like bluetooth toggling and volume controls, but this is the bare minimum to get auto-response to a SMS working.
This should help you out with the profile. Instead of having the state be "Car Cradle", yours would be Bluetooth.
I am in a similar situation. I would like to avoid using Tasker profiles all together and just have the NFC Tag be my trigger (context). I will continue to play around, but my end goal is to enter my car, swipe the tag, and have all incoming texts from that point have an autorespond message. Then, upon exiting the car, I will reswipe the tag and the autorespond will be deactivated. Any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated!
Solution
So I've got it working exactly how I want, and I am posting this as a conclusion to this thread.
Basically, you can use the above steps to get an idea of what needs to be done. What you can do (this directly solves the OP's problem) is create a TASK that involves a PROFILE.
So, using the above example, I created a PROFILE called AutoSMS. The context being receiving a message and the result being the Send SMS. Then, disable this profile so it doesn't happen.
Then, you just need to create a new TASK > + > Tasker > Profiles > Select the profile and set to 'ON'. This will activate the profile and from that point all incoming texts will receive an automated response.
To deactivate this feature, I created another TASK called Home, that will TASK > + > Tasker > Profiles > Select profile and set to 'OFF'. This disables the profile. I swipe the NFC tag a second time on my way out of the car to activate TASK: Home, which disables this feature and returns my phone to its home.
thanks for the help..i'll test it out when i get home and let you know...it sounds like this could work
like you mentioned, i'd rather the nfc tag take care of everything...but this might be a reasonable compromise
Yeah... This isn't working.. Hehe
I programmed everything as it's supposed to be.. That is setup a task/profile to auto reply to any SMS sent.. Then setup a new task to toggle that profile..
When I "play" the task in tasker, it works and toggles the profile successfully and it replies to any SMS...
But when I associate this task to NFC task launcher, it does nothing... Does not turn the profile on or off.. I even tried other tasks and it doesn't work...
I clicked the settings to allow external use of tasker.. but it really seems like NFC task launcher is not touching the task in tasker..
Is there another setting I am missing?
I'm so close to getting this to work..

Was Tasker installed BEFORE NFC Task Launcher was installed. Tasker requires that any app that wants to start a task has a permission that it grants. If this permission isn't available at install it will never be granted (thank Android for this). All I do from NFC Task Launcher is use Tasker's shared class to tell it to start Task N where N is the supplied name. Everything else is on Tasker.

Tasker was installed after NFC task launcher.. Should I reinstall both and install tasker first?
Beyond that.. Tasker and NFC task are both working fine separately and the NFC task has the trigger of starting "task n" as well.. It's just not actually doing it.. Hehe
My Tasker was installed before NFC Task Launcher.
So, its good that your task does toggle the profile. That's a good start. Now you just need to use NFC Task Launcher to trigger that task.
A few things to consider..
- Make sure that Tasker is active.
- Make sure that external applications have access to Tasker (which can be adjusted in the settings portion of Tasker).
- When you create an NFC profile, make sure that the Tasker Task name is exact. This is important and this is the only thing I can think of with regards to your particular dilemma.
- My Tasker Task switches the Tasker Profile to ON and then an exit task to OFF. I did not use the "TOGGLE" feature.
- IF nothing else, I would deactivate tasker > ensure that my NFC Task Launcher is up to date > re-activate tasker, disable the Tasker Profile > create a new NFC Task Launcher profile > ensure the correct Tasker Task is used and the name of the task is spelled correctly > write the NFC Profile to the tag.
I hope this helps!
You might optionally consider using the app Tasker URL Launcher. It's a free plug-in. Once installed you can then write a URL to an NFC Tag that will trigger a tasker task. In this case everything must be handled by Tasker as all the tag does is trigger a tasker task. Anyway, I've found it to be the best way to use Tasker with NFC Tags. And the plug-in doesn't conflict with NFC Task Launcher so you can still use that app for other tags if you don't want to use Tasker for everything...
Hi guys, I am ater similar but maybe a bit more complicated. I am riding a motorcycle and i wuld like to use an nfc sticker that would autoreply when the profile is active, and here comes the complications: i would like to reply to sms texts that come only from my contacts. Also, i would be great if when the profile is active, any calls received will be fowarded directly to a preset voice mail - "i'm riding my bike right now, leave a message and i will call later" this option shold also work only for contacts.
don't ask for much, do i?!
thanks
Hi all, I had a GS4 before I got the G2, before going to sleep I used to turn on the blocking mode & I had set it up so that the phone would still ring if someone called me but there would be no notifications & the notification light would be disabled. The quite mode on the G2 in comparison when activated disables all ringtones & notifications (basically putting the phone in silent mode with a whitelist for phones numbers) & I will have to manually allow a list of phone numbers which can still ring through. This does not work for me because I receive important calls from various different numbers & i just want the notification blocking.
Can someone please advise me how to accomplish this.
Thanks
Not sure yet but I think if you uncheck the "block incoming calls" option it disables the whitelist and allows all calls to come through. If so, the whitelist is a nice additional feature for those who want to micro manage things further while not a requirement.

Thanks a lot for your reply but unchecking "block incoming calls" does not allow any calls to come through which is kind of strange!!

Yep I am seeing the same thing as you. Kind of makes me wonder why that checkbox even exists then. Possibly a coding error? There really should be a way to allow all calls. There's an option to select all contacts but I see where you are coming from...an important call could still come from a number not currently listed in contacts.
Also, I'm not seeing an option to disable the persistent quiet mode notification in the notification bar. I don't particularly want to be advised that its going into quiet mode tonight at 11am this morning.

bump!
I'm trying to make Tasker disable my pattern lock and make it swipe instead, and automatically activate WiFi Calling, can't figure out how though lol -_- I have the newly updated Secure Settings too btw.
Anyone?
Does anyone know a good way to add outgoing call confirmation? Like a simple additional button press to confirm I actually want to place a call?
I've accidentally called people several times now, and it's getting annoying.
Thanks!
There's a few apps in the playstore that will do that. I used to use one called tiny call confirm worked pretty good.
Thanks! Tiny call confirm does the trick.
