Wildcard call blocking - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hey,
I did not find a way to block call using wildcard entries, ie
Example: If I want block all numbers starting from 140, then in my old phone (s3), I was entering 140* in the block calls list.
This is not working in s7 edge-G935FD (stock firmware).

blocking caller

I need to block someone from calling or texting me if I can and I dont want to change my number
there must be something I can do with my o2 xda mini s to block a number?
help please
I use Call Firewall (attached a zip). I don't know if you can block text messages, but it is efective in blocking numbers. I have mine set to block unknown/private numbers, and any numbers not found in my contacts list. Hope this helps/is what you were looking for. Some of the cooked WM6 roms also have this program incorporated into their rom.
i just need to block one number and i know what it is, i dont want to block withheld numbers as I need to receive calls from these and I understand that this would mean the person could simply withhold their number
would that program work to that extent?
blocking texts would also be required
Ta for help so far

How to block a contact

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.

App to block calls by area code?

Is there an app to block incoming calls from an entire area code? I get telemarketers from Phoenix on a daily basis. No matter how many numbers I block, they always manage to call from a different number.
Alternatively, is there a call blocking app which has a list I can edit by means of a text file? If so, I can just do something in Excel and have it increment by 1 until I have all 10 million numbers blocked. Of course, that would have to be a HUGE text file!
I program I use which is really great, but not free, is called MagiCall. I think it's well worth the money though cause it lets you block not only calls, but sms and it does incoming and outgoing. This program will let you block a whole area code, or any other way you want to block a number. You never even notice when it blocks a call, unless you want to notice it, then you can set it to show a notification

I bought MagiCall and installed it but I don't get how to block by area code
EDIT: Figured it out!
Examples:
To block the entire area code 852, enter (852)* or (852)???-????.
To block any phone number containing 7, enter *7*.
To block all other phone numbers except 12345678, enter ~12345678.
If you want to block phone number 633-7777 but not care about its area codes or country codes, just enter 633-7777.
Each item consists of a phone number and an optional comment using one space as the separator, so please don't leave spaces among phone numbers. To separate multiple items, use ';'. For example: (123)456-7890 Jack Will; (987)654-3210 Peter Lee; 135-790-8642
No more calls from the 602 area code for me!

[Q] Block numbers based on "starts with"

Hey guys, on my previous phone (LG V30) I was able to block calls depending on what the phone number started with. For instance, I want to block all calls from a specific area code + prefix, but I'm unable to figure out how to do this on the S10+. Is there a way without using a third part app? I can only find the option to block entire numbers and I'm not about to enter in all 10000 numbers!
I haven't seen a way yet but the third party app you don't wanna use would be Me. Number. I haven't seen any ads yet either so it's probably worth trying.
