program to block numbers

does anyone know of a program to block numbers from calling, i have call firewall but but i cant just block one number, and thats what i wanna do

I thought on CallFirewall you just selected 'Black List' and added the number you wanted to reject to it?
Works for me!

SPB Phonesuite allows call blocking using either a blacklist or whitelist. It also has a ton of additional features.

Spb Phone Suite has one bug in the handling of a whitelist. I have to add all phone numbers twice, with and without country code, to make it work. We don't use area codes here in Oman. Maybe this is causing problems for the program?

try magicall works perfect you can also block incomming sms or autoreply with an sms to someone you blocked.
you can block individual numbers but also you can block all incomming calls when you are in a meeting or going on a plane...
can be found at ppcwarez

IMO magicall outbeats them all.

Call Blocking on Tilt

Are there any good call/number blocking apps? I'm looking for one where you can train it as you go along. IE block private calls, a strange 800 num calls and block it etc..........

Only one I know is called Call Firewall (easy to find at a dozen pocketpc freeware sites). But I don't know what you mean by "training".
The only way to block calls that I've seen implemented is to use caller id and white/black lists. Your phone will still ring at least once in order for the caller id info to come through and then the app to compare it to the rules/lists.
How else would a phone do it on it's own? It cannot preemptively (presentiently ??) allow or disallow calls?

spb phone suite

I have been using Magicall for more than a year now and works like a charm and with blocking sms as well as voice calls. You can even set your own criteria, number prefix, contact groups etc

Call SMS Blocker v. 2.4.1.779, Phonegate and magicall. All three are usefull for call and SMS blocking.

+1 for Magicall. It's a little expensive but it does the job perfectly. If you set it not to notify you, you won't even know it's blocked a call unless you manually check the logs.

program that blocks certain numbers from calling and txting

is there a program out there for the kaiser that blocks the number from when it calls and txts?

Magicall works great i use it all the time.

Yes, it works on both. It lets you automatically add prefix number in front of the original outgoing call number based on your rule. Hang up predefined outgoing numbers such as international calls. In addition, you can also take control of your incoming SMS Messages. Reply back or send an SMS to someone or launch an application when a rule is being triggered. And it can log detail information about all triggered events to the log file.

great, and where can i get the full version ?

SPB Phone Suite is cheaper ($20) and then there is Call Firewall which is, err... free

thanks for the apk bro, u r the man!

I had made it free today. You can download from market directly and have a try. I am looking forward to your comments. Thank you very much.

Looks like a good free app but sends the call to voice mail. Would be better if for an incoming call the phole answers then hands up. This has a two fold benifit, first the spammer is charged for phoning me and second no voice mail.

if there is an incoming call, does the app block the call instantly or will the phone rings then block?
will there be a notification of the blocked calls? coz personally i dun want to see who's call i blocked......

Yeah, I noticed that with other firewall apps too. They all send to voicemail. That's part of the standard OS if you just click "send all calls from voicemail" under the contact for that number.
I want something that blocks them, or better yet - set up a forwarding number for their individual phone#. I'd love to forward the telemarketers right back to themselves. ha.

aFirewall just endCall when the call need to be blocked. Woud you like to let me know the call will be send to voicemail automaticlly when the call was rejected in your operator? That is to say, this is a default configuration of your phone as my Nortel IP landline phone does.
I can add a feature to aFirewall to forward a call to another number when a call was rejected.
Thanks.

If a blocked call was incoming, aFirewall end it instantly and no rings. And no notification was sent to you in default configuration. But your can enable it if you want this. Thanks.

How did you go about hanging up the call on incoming. I have looked into this and from what I can see this is not in the current version of the SDK.
If you could post some code that would be awesome!
Thanks

this app does not work at all....i added a contact to black list and have it set to block both calls and sms, and im still getting the calls and messages from that person... :/

(Not installed yet since I have Panda Firewall installed)
Does it come with a toggle widget for SMS blockage?

There is no toggle widget in current version. This is a start for aFirewall. Many features will be added in in the near future.

Can I ask a question about this....
Does the call blocking feature block the call completely? I tried Panda but found that blocked calls would ring briefly but then go to voicemail, so I would still get notifications of missed calls. You can already block numbers with the Hero (send to voicemail in contact settings) so I found it pointless.
Does this app block calls to the point that you don't know if a blocked number has called unless you look at the log? This sort of thing is what I'm looking for.
Thanks.

Edit: Double post

Thanks for your attention. No ring and notifications of missed calls will be reported out in aFirewall. You can contact me to get a copy to make a try at first. My email is [email protected].

I have some comments:
1. It still make the notification on screen after the call (even disable notification) but did not show in the call history
2. When I block sms as "Accept contact only", it blocked all SMS from my contact people. For example, number in contact is 0902239000 and contact in SMS is +84902239000 (always show that) actually is the same but the program did not know.
3. When I block sms as "Block unknown number" then sometimes it can block the number not in the contact, sometimes could not.
4. When I block the call as "Accept contact only", it block all call from my contact
