No Free Apps that I know of, but there's a commercial app called magicall. I use it and I think it's worth it.

thanks dawg

Call firewall 1.4 is free and will work on HD2
Incoming call blocker HD2 is free as well: hd2apps

Do those apps block anonymous calls also? I hate seeing that "unknown" caller on the screen lol

How to Block A Number and Text?

How can I block a phone number and text messages? I tried Sprints website and sad to say it doesnt look like it is working.
Any other ideas?

hmm. It worked for me when I had to do that once (from the sprint website)
Did you include the area code with the number? (and leave off the beginning 1?)
I am sure there is a messaging app or something that can do that, but you would most likely still incur usage on you bill (but you probably have unlimited msg... )

Where can I find it on the website again?

if you truley want to block someone just call sprintit takes five mins to do and trust me it def works...lol

Oh awesome, thanks Unsane. I'll do that.

CallFilter in the market will block calls for free and calls and tetxs in the pro version
also if you send a text to 9999 "block 10digit #" that will block texts

I know cyanogen mod has a option to blacklist numbers. Calls will go straight to voicemail. You could try going to your people app and selecting the number you want it to go straight to voicemail (asuming you have the number saved in your contacts) selecting the contact and at the botton youll see the option to send the number straight to voicemail. Not sure if this works for texts.

Sms guard is free in the market
Great app, puts all incoming texts into a folder within the sms guard app, never rings or pops up at all. Set it and forget it

u know sprint cant block people from calling u. U have to use an app or use the blacklist in the people that most of the roms have even the stock

big thanks for the "straight to voicemail" tip, WOW, love this.

That's an option in the stock roms as well. Just a feature Cyanogen carried over.

yea but why bother with an app that takes space then uses a folder that takes space that you wont ever even use?

Vote for callfilter from me. Having unlimited minutes I have it set to pick up/hang up and I never know the person even called unless I go into my call logs which I rarely do.

Blocking A Crazy Ex

How do I block a number or text message from a crazy ex. I want her to receive a notification or something that says the phone number is no longer in service or some error message.
I know there is a spam setting that it just goes into my spam folder but she still thinks it went through which could cause a problem. haha
Is there any recommend apps?

I use YouMail for stuff like that.

Call Sprint (or whoever your service provider is) and tell them you want to block her number. I've personally never had to do it myself so I don't know if it returns a "disconnected" message or not. That should stop the calls, and most likely texts.

Root call blocker use it....love it.....bought the pro version to block spammers.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda premium

you can use the sprint short codes (on thier website) to block the number, or login to you account and get it... or just reply with
Error 23: SMS Not Delivered - Sender blocked by intended recipient
[SPRINT FREE MESSAGE] Message not delivered--Recipient has blocked incoming SMS.

Excellent thanks everyone
I will give it a shot!

HELP - Block private/unknown calls

Hi,
is there a way to Block private/unknown calls on stock rom?? Tryed bunch of apps and not working..
any help?
thanks

Truecaller works pretty well
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.truecaller&hl=en_US
Also Calls Blacklist - Call Blocker works well too.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vladlee.easyblacklist&hl=en_US
Both give you the option to automatically block private/unknown numbers. They also give you the option to block a number series (ex. Block numbers that start with 1877)

@ ogkillergreen,
i have tryed truecaller and calls blacklist but they aren't working prorperly..
TRuecaller never blocked a private call... the call blacklist blocks on the begining but then stops to block..

thanks

Did i go through all the settings? what do you mean by that? i choose to block unknown/private calls and it didn't block none..
any idea?
thanks

Typically (at least for the "calls blacklist" app) the app asks if you want to set up the app as your "default phone" app. If you choose not to do this, then it will not "intercept" any call blocking you have configured. Check to see in your apps, which is the default "phone". If its still your actual "phone" app, then these apps will not be able to block anything.

I actually use Hiya, costs $2.99/month for Android users. (Works on iOS as well). It can do a ton of stuff you are looking for.

In the app i'm using, it initially didn't block either.... coz i missed a few steps (I'm using the app i mentioned in my earlier post, "calls blacklist"). I loaded the app, and turned on the "calls" (I didn't enable sms). Then, i figured out, i had to hit that little "down arrow" on the right, and actually select "private" and "unknown" numbers. Mine has been blocking ever since.

I block unwanted numbers in the dialer itself,,, I have google dialer installed and don't know if OOS dialer has the same options as the google dialer.
This is what i do ,,,,,, Go to dialer settings in settings you see blocked numbers and caller id and spam.
In blocked numbers you can block the spamcaller.
in Caller Id and spam suspected spamcalls.

HELP: How do I block calls from numbers that are not in address book?

I am being bombarded with scam calls all of a sudden. Started a few days ago. They call from the same exchange but different number every time. It has been a total harassment. In my previous phone (ZTE) I could block all calls from numbers that were not in my address book. I don't the S10 Plus is capable of doing this, unless I missed it.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

If you are on Android 10 One UI 2.1 then click on the number in recent calls log. Then click the i with a grey circle. Then click block at the bottom.

I know how to block specific numbers but that's not what I am looking for. It doesn't help. I am getting very sophisticated spam calls from same source but different number every time they call, so blocking each number after they call is not helping. What I am looking for is an option that I had in older Android phones and iPhones currently have, which is block any call that is not in my address book.

Yes, you can find in :

I think Unknown Callers refer to incoming calls without a Caller ID, calls that says UNKNOWN, not calls that are not in my address book which is what I am trying to block. It is checked and it does not block these calls because they display a number (albeit a fake one).

Try using the Do Not Disturb function with the exception of only allowing phone numbers that are in your contact list. This may be a temporary solution to the issue that you're experiencing. https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00077281/

That's a nice solution. Thank you.

you might miss an important call, i did.
i had left a message to a us gov't number recently but had a call-back from an out of state number, not in contacts.....so i sent to vm.
when i heard the voice, it was the mgr of the dep't returning my call.
the vm answered my question but that might not always be the case, if no vm is left.
