Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can suggest or if there exists a program to block incoming calls?
I've only been able to google MagiCall ...
Anyone found a good freeware?
Can't find any threads on this...

spb phone suite...works a charm...not freeware tho...pay for it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=384126
damn, none of them seem to be free
Getting 1800 calls every hour... lol ****
well theres no free lunch in the world...phone suite is good tho and its only 20 bux...and theres more u can do in phone suite than just blocking calls why not download a trial and see if u like it or not
I've been using Magicall for about a year now, first with my 8525 and now with my tilt. There is no other filter then magicall. Trust me if you google you will find it as a freeware. Remember google is your friend. Try looking for magicall ppc warez or something with free maybe you will find. But I don't know if any one here is going to give you the cab. Search and you will find. Again magicall is the best, I tried others but none of them stand up to magicall.
Thanks for the suggestions guys...
Bapssy: Im also on fido... do you constantly get 1800 number calls from telemarketers?
Ever since I signed up, I've been getting them over in toronto. Apparently their office is around where I live... maybe I'll just pay them a visit...
nope i never get them...not that i remember of...so that means even if i do its probably once or twice...but cant u just not pick it up...and just let it ring or silent the ring? i know thats kinda annoying tho

I'm sure that the mods would not appreciate advocating for warez (ESPECIALLY in a developers forum). Anyway, search for Call Firewall here on xda and it should get the job you want done. Although I've been using magicall for a while and have found it to be vastly superior than other filtering suites.
That is what I do right now, I press ignore...
But that means I have to leave it on vibrate or silence...
Very annoying...
again I'm not trying to get on your nervse but try magicall that will get rid of all that. One good thing about it is, they have one function
I use for someone I don't want to talk to (old girlfriends or 1-800 #'s) or I don't want them to here a voice message. This function will pick up the phone and hang up on them everytime they call and you don't have to do anything except sign there number to that function.
.
i understand how u feel...but as for freeware u gonna have to search...but theres plenty of non free ones...like i said u can download a trial on the spb website and just test n see if it works out good for u..then u can decide whether u wanna pitch out for the program
Going to give call firewall a shot
Otherwise its -$25 outta my pockets..

I know but I really hate when I get calls I don't want, and I know I'm not the only one who feels the same way. But I uselly will send people around xda. So to the mods I hope you understand where I'm coming from. Sorry!!!!

Spb Phone Suite has a new Release Candidate beta 2 if you search in there forum.
Here; http://www.spbclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16436
I like PhotoContactsPro 5.
It has advance filtering so you can specify how the phone handles each caller (either by group, individual, etc). You can specify the program to either send it to VM, pickup + hangup (love this feature!), send to VM and send a SMS, etc. It can also do group or individual ringtones.
It blows up the caller Pic to a full screen as well. For me, its a must have program. But for $29.99 NO. I think its worth $24.99 the most.
But besides the price, im very happy with this one.

Try www.youmail.com. There might be something similar of what are you looking for. And it is free.
So, I've been waiting for months and months, and really would love to use the Google Voice thing on my G1. Never used Grand Central.
The Google people seem way too slow and love to tease
Anyone can help? I'd appreciate very much..
TIA...
As of right now, I've not seen an option to invite folks. I got mine a few days ago via signing up on the Google Voice site. It'd been about a month or two since I had last signed up to test it. I've had numerous folks asking me for an invite, but unlike Gmail, I've not seen an invite feature. Guess you just have to be patient until Google picks you.
I'm a GC/GV beta tester, and one of the option's it shows in the control panel is Tell A Friend. I've never used it, and it's not very descript at all. I don't know if this feature will get you an immediate acct or just have you sign up to be notified whenever it does go out beta. I'll be glad to give it a try if want. Shoot me a private message msg here on XDA with your email address. It's worth a shot I guess.
where are you seeing that?
Been a GC/GV bet bunny since GC popped into existence. Never seen that option to "tell a friend". Maybe I don't really have any friends? Or maybe its new? where are you seeing that, under Settings?
I was one of the first to sign up and I got mine a couple weeks ago, it doesn't appear that I have any invites to share but here is the link from Google.

Thanks a lot. I'll send you a PM. Whether it works or not, I do appreciate your help.
I tried to register for invites (2-3 times maybe, since March or so, with different email IDs) and now it's July and I still got none from Google!
use a @gmail.com id for ur email, they usally give gmail people it first i didnt get one yet though.

Yes I did... At least 2 different @gmail addresses... But 4-5 months is a bit long time and kind of frustrating... Esp. it could be very useful for my line of work (if the features they promise are true) plus would make my G1 phone more of what it should be...
I just got mine after 2 weeks

I'm in VoIP / 3G / satellite business and yes it's kind of a drug I guess. Especially I am addicted to my G1. I'll seek professional help, I swear.
I just got my invite on Thursday, applied back in March with a gmail address. I have been using PF Visual Voicemail and it's been great, but the Google service is clearly better for those us running most of our email/phone/messaging lives via Google. Hope you get your invite soon, it's definitely a winner!
Anyone know if a Google branded app will be released soon? The GV app is good, but I'd love to have another option as well.

I doubt you'll see Android integration anytime soon. What's bad about the GV app by Evan? It's pretty damn near perfect IMO.

Man, you're lucky! I hope that I can get one soon.
A quick update:
So, this morning I finally received the official Google Voice invite from Google.
Now, imagine my absolute joy and relief, that after waiting for it since March (!) I click on the link in that email only to see
"Google Voice is not available in your country.
Thanks for visiting Google Voice. We're not yet open for users outside the US, but are planning to expand our service to additional countries in the future. "

Yes, thanks a lot -- I appreciate that. But as I just said in my latest post I've already finally got the invite, but cannot use it since I am not in the US.
Any tips?

i hope you don't have any of Touch IT's rom installed, i had the same problem with his Rom. Dont know if he fixed it on the latest ones. But i got huge bill after a month and learned my lesson, to test important things like that on my phone before preceding to use it for daily purposes.

That's what I'm using, but after seeing that no one else reported that problem, I concluded it didn't have anything to do with it. :/
Thank God I'm on this scheme were you pay 2 Euro for a week of unlimited messages!
Anyaway thanks. I'll try out some othe rom. Probably an official one if Rapidshare lets me..
I'm sorry to hear what happened to you.
i had the same problem but i had my X1 fall into my drink at last months U2 concert!! now shes a gps/mp3 player/brick!!! Microphone doesn't work anymore and she does very strange things
Is there an app that i could use to send texts but using my wifi connection any help would be appreciated.
Skype is a good one, you have to have wifi. But I think theres a fee if your talking to non skpye users.
Google Voice
thanks for your quick replies, im going to try them out now as my service was just cut off but i still needed to communicate with people.

I use Google Voice for all my texts - no text plan required.
Has anyone been having a problem with their text messages. I use GOSMS Pro and haven't had any problems but my wife and kids use Handcent and keep getting Msg 2111 from 9230, saying The receipient you are sending to has chosen not to receive messages. They also get the same msg when trying to send through the stock msg app. I tried to call sprint, waited 20 minutes on line and when they finally pick up, they hang up. That's nothing new, Sprint support sucks ***. If anyone else has had this problem and has been lucky enough to talk to someone through Sprint support and can pass on any info, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
There are some settings online when you login to your sprint account that involve basically blacklisting numbers, maybe it has a setting to only allow certain numbers? I take it this is on all texts? What if you uninstall handcent?
~maybe I set it too high...
I'll take a look but I don't think that has anything to do with it. I thought it wasn't happening on my phone, just my wife and kids but I just tried to send a msg and got the same msg back, so it happens on GOSMS Pro, Handcent, and the stock msging app as well.

On an Sprint HTC TP2. Just talked to my wife. We've been trying to text back and forth all night and we're both getting the same message: the sender is 9230 and the message is "The Recipient you are sending to has chosen not receive messages. Msg 2011." She thought I was mad at her and blocked my texts...lol. I Googled the problem and it seems other sprint users are seeing the same thing.
My wife was mad at me also, ahe thought I blocked her number. It's back up and running for now, we never could get through to sprint, they kept hanging up on both of us after waiting on hold for ridiculous amounts of time, not too pleased about that, I usually atleast get to talk to someone ificall customer or tech support.

It sounds like it was a Sprint issue. My guess it had something to do with google voice. On the help thing, live chat is now way faster than phone. Unless you get the direct number for advanced tech.

I looked on the sprint website and couldn't find a link to live chat anywhere, I thought it used to be in the support section but I had no luck finding it. Thanks for your help. I guess it was just an intermittent thing, it only lasted for a few hours but sure pissed my wife off thinking I had blacklisted her txts.

sprint webchat is in "contact us". The secret number to advanced tech (they change this number frequently afaik) is 877-735-8405, I have another couple that may work as well = 866-639-9565, and 877-809-6696. The first one I just called, direct to a rep, no automated buttons or voice inputs
You may have to call back multiple times before you get someone competent. I worked for Sprint for many years and learned quickly there were some that could help you and some that wouldn't help you. If they're being an idiot just hang up and try again until you get someone cool.
Thanks duce, everytime my wife or I called last night, wait time was around 20 min and when someone answered they would hang up without saying anything at all. This happened about 10x in a row, not happy at all with their support lately. I usually don't have any problem with them, but last night was ridiculous.
