One thing that annoys me to no end is that you can put a picture in each contact but when they call it's just this tiny little pic on the screen.
Does anybody know of a program out there that will show a full screen (or close to it) picture of the person calling in? This has always annoyed me!
I remember someone with an iphone 'skin', which I believe brought up the full picture while you were RECEIVING a call. I can't remember if it also worked when placing a call.

Enjoy
Thank you much!
I've always wished that there was a caller ID program that did not come with all the bloat of Photo Contacts Pro. Seems like no one has ever bothered to make a simple program like that though.

Try Inesoft Address Book, very good with skinning support for the caller ID. www.inesoft.com
why cant there be just a simple program for photo caller ID? ive tried all the other programs and dont need the address book and everything else. Its a part of all these other programs, someone must know how to do this. thanks...
S2U2 v0.72 supports full screen photo caller ID. Search the forum and u'll get it free. Need to edit registry key though for caller ID to work. Just read the first post of the thread.
The iphone skin reffered to is the program Slide 2 Unlock. This is available via this forum. Within the post there are details of a registry setting which gives you two different options for setting caller ID pictures. One is a small pic and the other is full screen. Works well !

now it comes with it own config settings... so no need to do a reg edit....very nice app...
I installed S2U2 v0.86 last night and it appears at this early stage to do the large incoming caller photo very well. I also use PocketCM both for browsing contacts and to assign the caller photo. Both apps are from here at XDA-Developers and have excelent support. They are both skinnable.

Anyone know of any good call blocking programs for the kaiser? preferably free?
thanks

Google for a program called Call Firewall. I use it on both my Kaiser and my Wizard and it works very well.
I like smartblock it does both phone calls and SMS messages.

I've used Call Firewall but I don't like how it lets my phone ring once then silences it and it doesn't give me the option to block private and unknown numers. I can't remember if it lets me block by area codes though, but I need that for the stupid 866 and 888 numbers that call at 7am.

Is this program free?
SmartBlock d/l and installed. But is not going into effect. I did some reading and it says it only supports 2003 and WM5. Any suggestions for those who use SmartBlock?
jb
Yeah it seems like finding a good call blocking program is quite a bit harder than it should be. I tried a bunch of them then settled on this one.
call block
It does cost money ($10). It's not quite perfect but it works pretty well.

Rename smartblockppc22setup.zip to smartblockppc22setup.exe and install from your PC.

Hi
i tried lots of programs, and for me the best call blocking program is magicall.....but unfortunately is not free.
On tytnii it works like a charm.

Hmm, I've never had the problem with it ringing my phone once before it blocks it. I have an ex blocked and she used to call me about 10 times a day and it never rang once.
Also, I'm not sure what version of call firewall your using, but it has the option to reject unknown/private calls right on the first page on mine. I'm using version 1.2. And, if you go to menu and then black list options and choose the pattern option it allows you to block calls starting with a certain number such as 866 or 888.

Thanks for the link Mex, but unfortunately I got it to work and I thought it would be the one I was looking for but after you turn it on it will block the numbers you wish not to pick up BUT when you go to make a call, a popup comes and says something like "sorry you are un able to make this call right now either there is no signal or the number you are trying to dial isn't a verified number, please try later. Have you ran into this problem?

Thanks. I must've had the 1.1 which didn't have the private/unknown numbers and such. I will give it a shot. Hopefully they config the program to go straight to vmail like SmartBlock does and doesn't even show up on your device call logs but only in SmartBlocks history log.
Going to test out Call Firewall right now, I will report back.
jb
magicall works amazing! it is indeed the best.
For me the best blocking sw is NOVOSEC's smartfilterpro. Unfortunately it doesn't work in wm6.
I was using Call SMS blocker. Not free but work excellent.

Just wanted to resurrect this thread to say I tried Smartblock and MagiCall (didn't try Call Firewall due to the one ring delay) and found that:
- Smartblock had a one ring delay before blocking while MagiCall doesn't.
- MagiCall has the option to answer and then immediately hang up, meaning the offending number gets charged for the call!
For those two points alone, MagiCall is about to get my business. I also found the option when making a rule to choose whether you get notified about events or not.
Thanks for putting me on to this program.
I have been using SPB Phone Suite which also has this feature, though I have yet to use it. It supports Black Lists, White Lists and no CallerID. I just turned it on for PrivateID- I'll let you know how well it works.
Unmask private number. This is a great service, and it's FREE!

Seriously, either smudge those nubers out, or remove the video. Somebody's mom is going to get a ton of calls, or a new phone number very soon.
his mom sounds hot!

That is hot, tried it and it works...........

Did you try it?
And Kevin Mitnick participate to the software conception
Wow this really does work! Tried it on my att Fuze and after a bit of configuration it unblocks it all. It asks for you voice mail number though, i don't know why though. It also changes all of your call forwarding numbers to theirs rather than your default voice mail number. People calling you still go to your voice mail like normal though, maybe that is why they need your voice mail number in the beginning.
can someone help me out? i cant seem to get this to work, i get the blocked calls and all but i cant access my voicemail what number do i need to set as my voicemail number that i call to get my messages?
im on tmobile USA in california
edit*** i got it to work
Im in the UK so cant try this, but just a thought.. you should combine this service with this thread to make it all automatic!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=451309
great tool, soon my phone can do anything
i used to use this all the time before...
its always been here, the only new concept here is its available to everyone!!
once anyone calls an 800 number with a private number it automaticly gets unblocked (its the law) and then trap calls just forwards the call back to u!
u can do it on ur own all u need is an 800 number with a cheap plan!
under phone settings u need to set condintional forwarding for busy to ur 800 number, then forward ur 800 number back to u!
the only downside is u have to let the phone ring through if u want it to go to voicemail.
(u can mute it)
is there anyway to use this feature and also integrate it with YouMail? i really love YouMail and all the features they give for free!

Yes I have youmail as well, so I played with the setting......
all you have to do is......on the trapcall setting when it tell you to put the phone number that you see on your phone "That is you carrier voicemail" instead of putting that phone number in, you put the youmail phone number (17142043114)...........That is all you have to do.

You do it the Trapcall settings
Where you put the forwarding number that is where you put the youmail number
1. Sign in to your Trapcall account (on computer)
2. now go to the settings tab and under that select My Phone
3. under Phone Overview click carrier edit
4. select your carrier and the click update
5. When it say "We Need More Information!" there will be a box asking for a forwarding number, put in the youmail number
"17142043114" click I'm Done
6. Under Program Phone you will see where you have to dail the number on you phone (*004*18669676590*11# and hit SEND) after that click
I did this.
That should of work............ Enjoy unblocking people
Sorry, lost my manual for the Topaz.
Under Phone settings - More I see an entry called Fixed Dialing? Wondering what it is good for. It is grayed out, so I cannot change anything.

FDN
it's a sim service that alow you to make a list of the number that you want the phone to be able to call.
ie: you buy a phone for your kid and you want him to be able to call only you and his mom, well enter both number in the FDN, though you'll have to protect it entering your pin otherwise anyone would be able to add any number. on mine it is not greyed out, i am using xtreme 6MJ. but it might be dependent of the sim, some may not offer this service
cheers
Ok I ripped this from my Stock Alltel 6.1 TP Rom tracked down the files and reg entries and cab'd it all up.... I installed the cab on my TP now using SilenceMighty Rom and it functions perfectly.
I don't have or personally know anyone on another carrier to test it so I don't know if it will work on other carriers...
City ID, an application from Cequint, features information on more than 20,000cities in North America, providing enough detail to be useful identifying numbers calling from both across town and across the country
City ID service will automatically display the city and state where an incoming phone number is registered, providing additional information to help Verizon Wireless customers recognize unknown numbers
Installed on Verizon Samsung i760 w/ WM6.1. Programmed installed - I can look up numbers in the app, but it does not show location on incoming call or call history.
Ideas?
Ok, I will look into it on my friends Verizon Samsung i760. Give me a day or so
