Lockscreen blocks calling favorit contact

Whenever I try to call the preset favorit from SWR30 app, the phone (Z1 compact) screen goes on and shows the lockscreen patterm. However the phone doesn't start the call. Only after I unlock the phone, the call will be initiated.(even if I cancelled the call meanwhile on the smartband). Same issue with unlock by pin numer.
Is this normal behaviour? This feature doesn't make much sense to me, if it would work only with unlocked (unsecured) phone. However an other Z1 owner told be that he's not facing this issue, although he has the lock pattern activated. Any idea what might be wrong with my setup? thanks

Is there a way for this community, to make a suggestion to Apple to include blocking a specific contact number calls and messages just as other phones provide that feature for their users.

No phone provides true call blocking. At best, they provide call diversion. Essentially, the call is answered and disconnected automatically. If I recall, Apple is adding call diversion features in iOS 7.
Best of luck.

How can I block calls on my G3 when Verizon took away that functionality?

I find it very interesting that I used to receive a small amount of SPAM calls/texts on my old phone (older version of Android) but once I updated my phone last August, after waiting for years to find the options, design, and features that I wanted, to the LGG3 through Verizon I am receiving these calls at least once a week and sometimes several times a week. I ordered the G3 specifically because of the design and features. One of these features was the ability to block calls from the call settings menu. Unfortunately it appears that Verizon has taken away my choice to be able to do that by removing this feature from the Android OS on the G3 (and possibly other phones as well from my reading of these forums and other media online) Verizon tells me that I can block up to 5 numbers for a period of 90 days for free but if I want to block a number permanently I need to pay for their service at $5 a month and even then it is only up to 20 numbers. Sounds a little suspicious to me in that I should be able to do a block for free on my phone but yet Verizon wants me to pay up to $60 per year to use their service when they are the ones sharing my number pursuant to their privacy policy. I want the functionality back on my phone. This is probably part of the reason that the new android update is not working for most people as I can only speculate that Verizon has most likely "piece-mealed" the update to comply with features that they believe we need and allows them to add to their bottom line instead of letting the consumer decide what they want.

Called well actually chatted with Tech Support this morning...the option is not there and Tech Support of course would not admit that Verizon contracted with LG to have their phones produced without that option (though I explained T-Mobile G3 has the option) Tech support started wanting to change my plan to lower my plan price to offset the cost of Family Base-- I called ** on this --no changes made. Was given a number to contact LG but I doubt that will get me anywhere as well; what about the Mister Number app? I heard that was supposed to be a good one as well....but anyway I quite frankly told the representative that I could only believe that this was greed on Verizon's part since the functionality was removed but in order to use the functionality I have to pay for it on their site and that I refused to do so. Like you stated I should not have to pay for privacy. Very frustrating; she also tried telling me that there may be an update in the future that may change this on my device but she couldn't speak to when; again I am calling **...I have heard nothing but bad news on the Lollipop update and wont be doing that until I see all the bugs are worked out

Blocking Calls on Spring using Palm Pre

Somehow, someone programmed my number into MovieFone so it calls me multiple every day and I have no way to stop it. I have not found any way to contact MovieFone and Sprint says there is no way to block the calls from coming everyday.
Does anyone know of a way to block calls on Sprint or know if s way to block a call from a Palm Pre. I know I can change the ring, but how can I change the ring so it does nothing instead of ringing?
I do have to say that I was amazed that Sprint did not have the capabilities to block calls. I have never had the need to use this, but I thought it was common.
Thanks to anyone who can help me,
Craig
Post relates to:

Same issue, Sprint says there is no way they can block calls the only option they provided was changing phone numbers.
If Palm won't include a Call Filtering program with WebOS, then why not allow third party developers to do it for you? Windows Mobile, Blackberry, and Android all have 3rd party call block applications that will block certain numbers or private/unknown callers.
A WM developer stated that because Palm hasn't opened the telephony programming interface to developers, they are unable to create a call block program. A simple google for WebOS call block and you'll see how much of a wanted feature this is.
I hope Palm will re-consider adding some type of call filter to WebOS in an OTA update, or open up the programming so a 3rd party can do it instead.

Are there any apps that work with the G2 to block calls reliably?

I know this subject has been covered but, I have been using Call Control for years since I bought Pro way back when. Worked fine up until I got the G2. Now it says that the only proven method of blocking calls is using MUTE CALLS. The send to voicemail and pickup/hangup options are NOT recommended. I have tried a few others, but they all seem to hijack the call screen. I'm not overly worried about Caller ID features in an app. I know Call Control is in beta with a new version that shows ID, but it's rough and not aesthetically pleasing. Blocking texts isn't a big deal for me either. I know a lot of these apps block texts, but require you to use their messaging portion of their app. Anyone know of a proven pickup/hangup or send to VM app that works on G2?

Call Control works well, but being a beta tester I can tell you that features are changing. It's getting better, but even the Premium users are going to have to pay for lookups after x number credits. IOW, Premium users get a few credits per month and free users have to pay each time. Until that app decides to do right by the Premium users who have already paid for the app long ago I use Contactive because the ID seems better and more accurate than Call Control, Whitepages Current, Truecaller, LineWhoscall, and CallApp. Contactive doesn't have a direct pickup/hangup nor a send to VM, but the info is more correct and that means I can better block calls based on better info.

Setting a ringtone for Blocked Caller/Unknown calls

Most people want to block calls from unknown sources. However I often receive overseas calls where the Caller ID is not sent or from a TravelSim service which does not include CID.
My iPhone 4S is SILENT when then these calls are incoming which means I miss them if I don't happen to be looking at the screen at the time! Is there any way to turn ringtones ON for such calls? I can't find anything in Settings are any comment on the web.
I tried setting up 'Blocked Caller' and 'Unknown' in my Contact List but that doesn't work - as you might expect.
Thanks

You can create a silent ringtone very easily, then renaming it as silent and adding it to your existing list of ringtones. I've done it for users whom I do not want to be interrupted by.
I too would appreciate the ability to send anonymous / blocked / unwanted nuisance callers direct to voicemail but I don't think it is currently available. Perhaps this option might be added to the wish list on a later iOS update?

HT5661 how to set pic display while calling to contact ?

how to set pic display on calling to contact person ?

Hello HaD,
The image control is installed with either the Vision Development Module or the NI-IMAQ driver, and is not a standard component found in LabVIEW. If you have questions about the image display control or vision functions it would be better to post in the Machine Vision forum:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board?board.id=200
In regards to your question, this menu is not available as a runtime property, and therefore the user of program will not be able to set it directly through the control. Instead, you will need to allow the user to set it programmatically in LabVIEW by use of a property node.
To create this property node, right-click on the image display icon on your program's block diagram, and select:
Create » Property Node » Palette » Palette Type.
You will then be able to change the value of this property by right-clicking on the property node icon and selecting "Change All To Write". To create a control on the front panel that the user change at runtime, right-click on the “Palette Type” input, select:
Create » Control
If you have any questions about the application architecture required to implement this design, please continue to post in the LabVIEW forum.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Jasper

How to block calls & texts from one telephone number

How to block calls & texts from one telephone number

Call number blocking is done only by the carrier. Some carriers allow users to input numbers to be blocked on a website.
Verizon allows users to list up to five numbers to be blocked for free for 90 days by entering them in the users My Verizon site. I've found that 90 days has been sufficient to discourage most nuisance calls. But Verizon also provides a service ( for a fee) that will permanently block a number.
So contact your carrier to see what they offer.

Home Hub Phones & blocking calls from a particular...

I have a BT Home Hub 1.5 and the Hub Phone. Is it possible to block, or blacklist one phone number, so as it cannot call my hub phone?
I tried saving it in the phone book & allocating a ring tone of "None" but it still rings. I have also looked under Advanced in the web interface for the home hub, but cannot see anything there either.

Hi KeithAFrench,
If you take a look at the link Choose to Refuse, you will find some information on calling feature and this could help you to block calls from that number. Let me know if you still have any question regarding this service.
Cheers

Blocking call from some numbers in Black berry 9220

I want to know how to block calls from a specific number. I would also like to block SMS from the number.
I would like to know what kind of app is available for black berry 9220 for the same. Can experts please suggest.

There are some options under Settings >Firewall. Open the Settings menu and type Firewall in the search bar. There you can block text messages. Be aware that you will still be charged for the message over the network but the device won't display the message. To keep from being charged for the message you'd need to contact your wireless service provider.
As for phone number blocking you would have to go to Phone >Options. There is a call blocking feature but your provider must support it.

Block Caller feature not blocking calls on iOS7.0.2

I am still receiving calls from contacts I have blocked. I have an iPhone 4S using iOS 7.0.2. Does anyone know how to prevent this?
Thanks Very Much! CindiS

Nothing.
If you block a number from the iPhone you do not hear any ring. If the blocked caller leaves a voicemail it will be in your voicemail folder under blocked callers. You will not get any notification sound for these voice mails.
The text messages you will never see. The sender will never know they were blocked.
Good Luck

HT5463 Can you block calls from certain numbers

Can you block calls from certain numbers

You can also make a contact for those numbers and assign a silent
ringtone to them. The calls will still come in, but you will not hear them
and they will eventually go to vocie mail if you have it set up.
You must do this for each number as wildcards are not accepted in
Contacts, but all the numbers can be listed in one contact.
As Ocean20 has stated above, true call blocking is a function of
your wireless provider.
