SMS spam not blocked

some unknown source is sending me sms spam ,i blocked it (the IOS block feature) but it is still sending me sms. does block feature work in iphone ?
and no ,sms block is NOT a carrier feature .maybe it is in the US , but not in other countries.

i already contacted them ,other people in my area did the same. the matter is : the carrier does share a cut of these adds so they don't want you to block it. and without some long procedure i will never be able to block that add. and even if i cancel it another add will begin in days. i have some experience with this.
my cell phone is very powerful and it is setting just next to me , the phone should simply block it. i can't see any technical difficulty in that .android does it it is very very simple. google block email spam (also email has filters) why can't a phone filter sms as well ? simple question.
sms should be filtered by keyword as well : e.g. if the word "discount" was mentioned from unknown number just transfer that sms to trash. very very simple. i can't see why people make seem like very difficult.
security ? no problem permission system is already in place ,similar to camera and GPS permission systems.

Call+sms filter not work numbers are not blocked

Lumia 530

What do you mean "Not blocked"? First of all, they are not technically blocked at all, they are "filtered" - texts are moved into a separate folder visible from the Call+SMS Filter in settings, likewise calls won't wing and you won't see the incoming call on screen, but it does come into the phone so that you can see who has called.
If you mean that you are still hearing the ring and seeing the incoming call on the display when a number is on the filter list, check how you have entered because that may impact on how the filter works. If you entered the numbers in the normal "national" format, try putting them in the international format "+[country code]", most of the world's networks always treat numbers in that format.

Problems with SMS spam - is there a spam blocker?

I'm getting a lot of SMS spam, I don't want to change my number because of the impossibility of getting a new number to all my work contacts, is there an app to filter SMS messages as for Android?

Thanks for the responses. I'm in the UK not the US so, unfortunately, can't follow US specific advice - I wish spam SMSs were illegal over here! The spam I'm getting is people trying to sell me insurance and legal services for dodgy 'claims' etc. I'm very careful about what I check on web sites, but obviously not careful enough. It's like being under siege. I'll check with my provider to see if they can do anything.

Phone and SMS Spam

I am getting unwanted Phone calls and SMS messages from Spammers on my iPhone. Can I set up my iPhone in such a way Calls and SMS messages from any one not in my contacts list, will not be responded to or sent to voice mail, indicating to the Spammer that this number is not active?

What Ansuz said. However, if you are getting SMS spam call AT&T to get credit for it.
Additionally, if the spam is all coming from the same number you can notify AT&T and have that number blocked.

Cisco Spam & Virus Blocker

Hello
How is the license handled on the Spam & Virus Blocker? Our customer has approx. 120 Lotus Notes Mailboxes. But he only use 30 Mailboxes for external Mailing, the other Mailboxes are only used for calendar and internal mailing.
Can I take a Box for 50 users or will this not work? How will the Spam & Virus Blocker handle the license?
Thanks and regards
Luke

I find it extremely unlikely that IP address is valid for your network (or any network, for that matter).
I don't know if you've masked it trying to hide the real address (there's no point since it's a private network address anyway), but just in case that is what you've set, you will need to change that to the actual IP address of the mail appliance.
I did that and tested sending an email to an outside address but no relay.
What do you mean by 'no relay'. Do you mean that the mail server delivered the mail without relaying it through the appliance? Or that the mail didn't get delivered at all?
What do the log files have to say about it?

Spam & Virus Blocker / Exchange 2007

I have been running the Spam & Virus blocker for a month and love it. I'm in the middle of an email server migration (Ex2003 to Ex2007). I wanted the blocker to start forwarding (SMTP route) to my Ex2007 box instead of my Ex2003 box. The blocker continues to tell me that my Ex2007 box is down (Monitor - Delivery Status) and no mail gets delivered. If I bypass the blocker, mail gets delivered to Ex2007 just fine. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Problem solved, it was an ID10T error. I was asking the blocker to SMTP route to my domain controller and not the Exchange 2007 box. Once I realized my mistake, I put the correct server name into SMTP route, and it works perfect.

Contact your carrier... and have her contact hers. Assuming they are SMS/MMS messages, that is. SMS and MMS are carrier features. Note that MMS messaging requires a cellular data connection.

WRT54G v8 firmware that does not block ports?

Hello everyone! Is there a 3rd party firmware for the WRT54G v8 router that does not block ports or has the option to disable port blocking? I would like all ports to be open on all devices in my network. Thank you!

This setting is not recommended because it opens your entire network to attack. Instead, you should selectively open only the ports you need to play your Internet games.
People who open all their ports often get their computers infected with viruses which send out spam. When your ISP sees you sending spam, they will turn off your email, IM, or even disconnect you.

Hello I send imessages to a phone number I receive delivery notice but sms does not show on receiving phone. Otherwise when receive imessage from other phone I reply and receiver sees SMS !!! Any explanation ?

To my knowledge, I've only seen this for imessage only and not SMS.
The other users would need to have send read receipts enabled on their phone.

Will I lose my sms and notes if I upgrade to 6.0.1

I have an iPhone 4 which currently is running on iOS 6. Will I lose my sms and notes if I upgrade to iOS 6.0.1? Other things I am not worried about. SMS is a must. Please suggest a wayout.

If you are updating from iOS 6, you won't lose data. However, you must make an iTunes or iCloud backup before updating in case the update fails and you have to restore the iPhone

If I turn off iMessages on my iphone 5 and only use SMS, I am hoping this will this stop ALL my messages going to partners ipad? I only want 2 use SMS and not have any of my messages go to partners ipad so dont want to alter ipad settings.

My situtation is this, my soon to be ex previously set up an ipad with both our numbers and we share a linked itunes/icloud account so if my phone is off he gets all my messages via his ipad that I DO NOT have access to his ipad at ALL. I can't set up my own itunes account (not yet until I leave him) otherwise he will know I am leaving him and it will cause major problems. So I was hoping that if I turn off iMessages on my iphone 5 and just talk to my family via SMS and NOT touch his precious ipad mini, that he wont be able to get my messages anymore and if I turn off iCloud storage and back up as well on my iphone only. Is this correct? Its just a temporary solution I am hoping. I have searched for days and hours and I just cant find this answer anywhere....
Do I HAVE to turn off my phone number off or delete it on his ipad? I am really hoping I can just do this at my own end and not touch his ipad in anyway or have to change my itunes id YET. Once I leave him shortly, I will create a whole new ID etc. I just wanna know if I can do this myself on my iphone only. Please any experienced help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so very much.

Its just a temp thing and I just want to take action myself on my own phone and want to know if this will work. Does anyone know?
SMS messages will not go to the iPad Mini. It's not capable of receving them. If you have access and can do it without it causing a problem, remove your iPhone from the Apple ID Support profile:
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Log in if not already logged in.
Click on "Edit Products"
Click on the "X" to the right of the product.
Click "Unregister"
If anyone in your family uses iMessage, they will go to both you and your boyfriend unless you do that.
To be completely safe, you may want to simply use an alternate message app such as Skype, Viber, Whatsapp (assuming everyone has a smartphone) until the issue is resolved. Google Voice will also allow you to send and receive texts to another number on your phone.
Best of luck.

Waiting for Activation i have an iphone 3g. iphone is from my old contract and i have given it to my girlfriend. she then went to the O2 store and they gave her a new sim card which is compatable with iphone 3g. O2 have told me the phone is not blocked.

" fault code,,,,,waiting for activation, this may take some time,,,,," O2 gave my gf the contract and the new sim card to go into my old iphone 3g which was with O2 previous, O2 have assured us that the phone's imei number is not blocked, they have also said the sim is activated and there is no reason why the phone should not work. the phone is out of date warranty. the sim card does work in other handsets, also my sim from my iphone 3gs does not work in the iphone 3g. i have spent hours litterally on the phone to O2 and now to apple, but because i am out of warranty apple want £25 just to even listen to me over the phone. someone please help me. i am getting very frustrated for hopefully what might be an easy fix for someone. i have done all the resets that are possibly humainly possible, i have done all the resores you can do, have sync'd on many occasions all to come up with the same fault. i am still getting O2 in the top left corner but with no bars and when trying to call it fails imediately. wifi is fine, it works as an ipod.

ONLY AT&T can legally/legitimately unlock it. No one else at all.

SMS texts, not Imessages, on multiple phones with the same Apple ID

Is it possible that outgoing and incoming SMS texts, not imessages, could be seen on two seperate Iphones that share the same Apple ID? I'm wondering because I have been SMS texting a friend about a gift for my husband and I'm wondering if he was able to read them.
Thanks!

Outgoing or Incoming texts? I was texting with a person with an iphone that is one the same network, if that matters. But they were all green, so i know they were SMS.
