Hello guys, im the developer of Root Call Blocker, an advanced call and SMS blocking app for rooted phones.
The app's home is here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
We have had multiple reports that blocking is not working sometimes on SE phones, so we need some nice people to do some testing.
You can use the Groups function of the Lite version to do the testing - it gives you almost everything youd want from the app anyway.
Please post comments here, but also use the "Write to us" dialog in settings.
Come on xda people! I really need some feedback please...
Ok. Let's try it. ;-)
Well, when adding phone in black list, Name fild is out of screen. Incoming calls fully blocked, without half ring. I continue testing ...

Yep... thats a known issue on very small screens...
I think it was fixed, no?
Enjoy... and remember, an update is always just around the corner!
Could you guys please test the following behavior for me:
1. How the app behaves when a blocked number attempts to connect during call waiting
2. How a blocked caller is handled when "Dont answer" is set as the reject method and you are currently on the phone and have not enabled blocked call vibrate notifications within the app itself
Dont forget to send logs with descriptions as well.
Come on people, i really need some feedback on this!
Nothing to report then?
Nothing here - its working perfectly!
Anyone having trouble at this resolution?
Any problems to report?
Guys hows that dialog scroller?
Guys, an update has been rolled out. It contains an important new workaround thast needs to be tested.
It may help those people who have data issues, especially on LTE enabled phones sometimes.
Please help me test this by installing the app, rebooting and waiting for data to return with the screen on. Please wait 3 minutes at least before sending logs via "Write to developer" in the app.
Dont forget to include a description. Thanks!
Working perfectly for me! Thanks, this is absolutely top class.
Do data issues then?
Any issues to report?
Is anyone seeing an issue with notifications?
Also, do you guys have any problems understanding how to block hidden numbers?
Thanks in advance!
Any issues or suggestions?
let me try it

Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

Guys, i really need some feedback on how it behaves on smaller screens!
It's a bit hard to test, since most of us don't use prepay...
tested on other device with a small screen(Samsung Galaxy 3) (link in signature)
Getting a blank widget for all 4 sizes
resolution is 240 x 400
I´ll try it and give you feedback. Just cant do it now because I am at work.

Hi guys. Any issues to report before we start working on a new build?
i can't see the full sms reply :
in pic #2 it's the full sms reply
Dear god that is a lot of text... but you are showing me the preview window, not the parsing window.
Are you saying that after you click "Yes" in answer to "Is this what you were expecting?" you still cannot see the full reply?
If so, i need a screenshot of the parsing screen please.
Update fixed blank widget but getting another error
Log sent with a brief description!
Ill look into it... damn the wildfire is hard to please!

Of course. Pay close attention now:
App is now in Top New Paid on the market but so few reviews
Absolutely awesome. One of my fav apps now, thanks a lot!
Come on guys - i would have thought people would be willing to test a totally free and awesome widget!
I have tried on the desire s now as well and it works perfectly (MTS and Beeline).

I use the pro version of your app on the xperia play. 99% of the time it works. But some times blocked callers still get through, even if i set it to check all 11 digits.
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
Next time a call does go through, please send a log. Also, does this happen in particular situations?
Have you had a chance to have a look at it?
It seems to be random. Although if someone rings and rings (like the angry girlfriend) some of the calls get through. I would send a log, but as sods law says. It hasnt happend since i made my last post

Hello I am a Spanish user and it is me first post in this Forum (excuse me english :S)
I am a proud owner of SE Xperia Arc and i buy your app from market few days ago.
For me all it´s fine for the moment but i test it this weekend and post the results in this forum.
This is a brilliant app!
Please stick to the topic - we are looking for concrete feedback!

For me, it works properly on the Xperia X10 running stock GB 2.3.
I wrote a post about it in your other thread!
Thanks you. It seems weve ironed out the SE problems we were having...
Hello, in about 10 days of testing Root Call Blocker PRO with me Arc, everything it´s ok. All the phone calls were blocked, if i detect any problem i post it here.
My Arc is running a Global Generic 2.3.3 with default kernel and compilation number 3.0.1.A.0.145.
P.D.: Sry for me english...
Excellent! I wonder if you would also test my app Prepay Widget? Its in My signature and also has some problems with SE stock roms!
No problem so farI bo
I bought it a month ago and no problem observed so far.
Excellent app!

2. How a blocked caller is handled when "Dont answer" is set as the reject method and you are currently on the phone and have not enabled blocked call vibrate notifications within the app itself

I am using an X10 (but it's on stock 2.3.3, which is a very similar ROM to the Arc's)
and my experience is:
1. I have call waiting enabled on my network, so normally when someone calls while I am on the phone,
I get a beep and a notification on the screen allowing me to switch calls etc.
With RCB, when a blocked number calls while I am on a call,
I get no notification at all and the caller just hears the busy-tone (no call waiting).
2. Same as above. No notification, no vibration, nothing!
Excellent! But is your rom stock or cm-based?

Error report
I got a crash error after confirming a USSD code, it will not let me set predefined indicators. (I sent an email error report)
Are you rooted?
when i add ussd code, the operator replies with the USSD window, now it asks me that is this what you are expecting, as soon as i hit YES, my statusbar shows that prepay widget has crashed, tap me to send error report.
Have you sent a report? In any case, this issue will be fixed today or tomorrow because youre not the only one experiencing it!

Added full Russian translation

Hi mate, thanks. Unfortunately that was a long time ago, many devices away.
Look for "pattern wallpaper" on google images. I usually get stuff from there.
downloaded this apps 1 hours ago (Xperia Arc 2.3.4)
enter USSD codes, verify ussd message, press "yes" and the app crashed.

Hi. Did you read the bit of the description that says you need root on SE phones?
Anything to report?
Hi everyone! Thank you for your help in getting CM up to a flawless standard! We are now almost ready to deploy CM 1.5 - it will include MMS blocking, Class0 auto replies and many other new and very cool features.
We need your help now to iron out any remaining bugs before we embark on a daemon rebuild. Please download the app from the market and get testing! Here are the issues we want to address specifically:
- If you have problems regaining 3G after the telephony restart. This should have been fixed. If not, please try "Slow radio restart" in Debugging and report your results!
- Issues moving list priorities on Light or Dark theme. Again, if you have issues, please switch to the other theme, try again and then report back.
- Notification color schemes. We are interested if the new notifications comply with the majority of frameworks.
Thank you in advance for all your great work, this ultra-awesome app is as much a child of yours as it is of ours

This is a fully functional application. However, after a 24 hour demo period it will start nagging you to buy the Key, which will remove all nag
screens and timeouts from the interface. The nag screens are pretty light though, so users who dont want to spend can live with them.

Installed on my DX2 running Eclipse 2.0.2
No data return after restarting telephony.
No data or cell service after restarting radio, had to restart my phone to get them back.
However, second time around, data turned back on when I clicked send to submit the error report.
Hope that helps.
Did you try to just open the browser?
So, has anyone had a chance to do some testing?
Any issues to report with 1.2?
Seems to work well... A few issues.. I kept getting mega spammed by a text message company... Kept popping up I turned off persistent and event notification and it still shows in status bar.? Also keeps asking me to buy now... Are you officially out of beta? Thanks
Yes the beta ended two months ago. Now you get 24 hours, then it will nag you to buy. All the functionality is still there though.

Ok basically randomly it stops allowing incoming text and I have to disable.. Then eventually they all come in at once.. I can send outgoing.. Tested this with friends with Verizon.. Att. Sprint... Very annoying.. Not sure if anyone has similar experience.. Tested and repeated.. Very consistent problem... Rooted but on Stock gingerbread
Todays release (1.2.3) should finally fix this rare issue. Let me know if it works please!
Ok I will update and report back.
Did you perform a clean install as advised?
Updated OP - impressions please!!!
I tried this out a month or two ago. I'm on CM7DX2 with some custom mods. I was looking for a call blocking app, the one I had stopped working so I started searching for a new one.
The biggest problem I had with this app was when I was on a call and another blocked call came in, it would disconnect BOTH calls. Has this been addressed or fixed yet? Since it seems to answer the blocked call to hang up on it, it seems there is no way around it. Thanks!
Ciao!

Right now, kill isn't doing anything. I block the incoming number and set up the action list to kill. When I'm not on the phone, the incoming call rings about 6 times, then the phone rings and the incoming call is never killed. This was part of the issue I had with it the first time as well. When I "reject" the call, that works, but then when I am on a call and that rejected number calls, it disconnects BOTH calls. Do you have an online manual somewhere for this? That would help tremendously. Thanks.

Dear All
I'm sure everybody had this already that he got calls from unwanted numbers, and they don't stop.
I usually use blacklist pro (bought version) with android 4.1.1 it doesn't work currently, probably it has something to do with pdroid, i'm using a cyanogen rom.
Anyway..
So far i'm more intrested in call forwarding instead of blocking.
I am locking for an app which can forward this annoying caller to another number, or all numbers which are not in my contact list.
so far i couldn't find an app doing exactly this what I wanted to.
(It does not matter if the forward counts on my own phone bill, because i've got flat anyway...)
so does someone know an app for this?
would this anyway technicaly be possible?

well all those so called 'Call blocking or forwarding' apps available on stores are not compatible enough to wrk efficiently with JB based roms, due to lack of upgradation of those apps from there developer's
so ICS based roms r better for ur issue, since they can support those apps

I try staying nice and calm but it's hard not getting mad..
So listen, I don't post stupid questions in a form because i'm lazy or i can't use google. In reality i've been searching such an app which exactly supports my needs for few hours, i've also tested few apps, but sadly my search was unsuccessfull.
Considering that the world is full of noobs posting sometimes unhappy,not well explained or just unintelligent posts I can partially understand your replies.. PARTIALLY!
But this is a Question and Answers forum and you do NOT have to write me "use google there are lot of apps and search the one for your needs"
If you CAN'T give a competent answer do not reply!
If you do not understand what exactly has been requested, read the topic until you do and then reply only if your answer is competent!
Now please do no more post reply on this thread you're not hitting the topic anymore and you can't help further!!
If somebody knows an App which exactly fullfills my needs, feel free to post it..

Have you found such an app? I am also in search.

Would really appreciate a response.
The OP's outrage at being told to use Google is just as hilarious as it was almost two years ago.
I just want to be able to forward calls from specific contacts (not send to voicemail). I currently have all undesired callers automatically hung up on.
Hi frnd,
I found out a method which works perfectly for me....Hope this will be useful for u as well.
first add the particular number from which u don't want to receive calls to a call blocking list app.( i used cm security app)
second, go to your call settings, and enable 'call forward when busy' to your any other number or to which number u want the calls to forward
That's It...now if the blocked number called u, it will get hang up and automatically redirected to another number..
