No way am I paying $5 per month, that's BS !!!
I have 8 unwanted ATT apps on my phone right now !!! (and have to buy one/service to block a number)?
Locked boot loader, no CRs, no way to block individual numbers, low audio can only be fixed if rooted, and there's is other stuff that I forgot.
Not impressed by Android so far, (love the phone). Looks like I picked the wrong year to switch to android !!!
IOS 7 is JB, I hope I don't regret my decision to switch to android. :crying:
What's the big deal? $5 a month really going to impact the rest of your life so drastically? Would you rather be on a limited unlimited network with terrible services, no customer service, lies, etc... The ROM I use let's me 'block'/ignore calls and texts. Not sure if your has that option.

Android is far better than iOS, IMO. Don't destroy your entire experience because of a company decision to charge for a feature.

Yes, you can. No need to install anything. Any new device has a rejection mode for calls and sms.

Open call log , click on desired contact/number, once it opens press the menu button and add to reject list. Done

Thanks, you guys are great.
I made my own call rejection message, but I cannot find how to assign it to a contact?
Also, I see the number is blocked from calling, but what about sms, (which is where I am getting bothered by my x)

I set my phone up using that link, then added it to my favorites.
I use Blacklist Pro from the Play Store. Its free and allows you to block any number from calls and text, as well as private and unknown numbers.

Did you even check message options? If you open your stock messenger, tap menu and settings, then tap more, there is a spam filter you can have off or on. If you turn it on you have to option to block specific numbers that send annoying text or spam. I mean it is massages that you say you want to block so messing with call blocking is pretty much pointless and you should have looked at message settings first.:good:

I appreciate your help, but please don't say that about me.
I google, use search features on all sites, roam around in my own settings, BEFORE I ask questions on this board.
Please, please, please, do NOT put me in THAT category of (peeps who are too lazy to search), I am NOT one of them!
Especially since one of the regular senior members here suggested I had to pay att $5 per month for smart limits.

I did a Google search for "blocking messages of the note 3" and the first five hits all had the same information posted on post 9.
So maybe Google or whatever search engine you used in your region blocks some stuff. Or your search terms where not clear enough.
I'm not trying to put you down or anything, it's just took me maybe 3 minutes tops to find the information on Google with those terms.

You are fantastic! Clearly way better than me, (and I'm ok with that).
We should close this site down (and just use Google) !!!
As a matter of fact, why have any forums at all.
You and I both know you can google anything, so why bother having these sites.
edit - guess how I found XDA Developers :wink:

For all AT&T Customser is a long distance call to check your voicemail. Plus when you have nationwide plan you don't get charged long distance.
Does anyone else have any invites for GrandCentral? I was hoping to try this service out. I am trying to choose between YouMail and this one...
There is an app called "My Account" in the market by T-Mobile that allows you to view account data such as minutes used/available, billing balance etc.
The app is free and to me its helpful. Just thought I'd share...
yea
i LOVED it when i put it on my phone. No matter what company you go through, the webpage, billing, minutes of use, txt usage, is horrible. This app made it VERY easy to read, use, and even pay a bill (IT EVEN TELLS YOU THE BATTERY LIFE, CONDITION etc, also has payment history that isnt tied to that programs usage to pay bills, all your payments are shown)

That's amazing! I'm hoping it's from Tmobile so personal info isn't stolen, but considering it finds the info without me logging in, it MUST have access to tmobile's servers.

Yeah, it's official from T-Mobile. They announced it first in their official forums, so no worries!
They seem like they took all precautions by not allowing wifi enable checking.

Thanks, this is great! Beats using the browser to get to my acocunt info
Good o'l Tmobile. Finally an application I can recommend to customers. It also has some really neat steps for Trouble Shooting that may answer some questions without having to call in if you're having problems. So check it.

Can't find this on the UK market, can somebody upload the apk for me?
Please
Does any one have the 1.0 version of this app. I downloaded the 1.1 update and now i can not use this app because it only requires 3g and edge. I only have wifi but they took that off for secority reasons. if you have 1.0 please back it up and upload. thanks
My Account 1.0.0
Can Someone upload the newest version ?
I just tested this with my G1 on Tmo in the UK and it doesn't work properly. It shows someone's account details, but they are not mine. I'm not greatly surprised it didn't work or I would have expected to see it on the Market in the UK. I am surprised that it shows someone's details though rather than an error!
Aleks
lolz i have the same, it's not my account info what the application shows.
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.

wspaw is correct; AT&T hasn't create support for this on Windows Phone. (AT&T documented what is supported on their Support page - sorry, I can't post links right now...new member).
However, if you really need it, there are some third-party providers and apps out there that perform this same function. One for instance has a free (lite) version: MagikMail available on the Marketplace.

Just checking to make sure I understand. By 'Visual Voicemail', do you mean the ability to have a text version of the voicemail sent to you via Messaging?
If so, I have this capability now through Rogers here in Canada. It's an option you request when you sign up for service.

I've always known "Visual Voicemail" as the ability to listen to messages by clicking on them in a list on your phone (almost like songs). It's nice cause you can see all your messages and you never have to call the voicemail service. I had it on my iPhone (telus includes it with most smartphone plans) but I'm not sure how to set it up on WP7.

224444 is being used to send text message notifications by Google to their list of different users who have opted-in to their SMS notification program. Many websites, mobile apps, and other businesses use their short codes to notify their users of current deals being offered, promotions, coupons, when tables are ready at their restaurants, password changes, and other time sensitive information related to their individual accounts. This is to keep their users informed with up to date information, give their subscribers coupons and deals, and also to verify that the user attempting to make changes to their account is the verified account owner.
Maybe at some point, you registered your phone number to one of Google services (maps, youtube, etc) and they want to keep you informed.
On the other hand, if you didn't do any of this, it may be possible that you accepted some bad cookies or notifications from surfing the internet. In that case, you can uninstall and reinstall your browser. Hope that this could give you an answer to your question ?. If not, you may have to do some researches of your own Google account security settings.
