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.

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.
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.

Next time a call does go through, please send a log. Also, does this happen in particular situations?

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!

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!
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

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?

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.

hi guys,
i'm looking for an call blocker (i know there a maaaaannyyy of them). I already installed many of them and tried them, but no one does it, how i want to.
i'm sick of getting anonymous calls - so therefore i just want to block the anonymous calls.
important is the blocking procedure:
i don't want to just hang up the phone - because some people don't understand this. i also want to let the phone ring, when i can see a phone number - it doesn't matter, if i know the no. or not
i want to let them now, that they're been blocked, because of calling anonymous!
this could be designed in 2 ways:
1) forwarding anonymous numbers to the mailbox, so i can speak any text on the mailbox, that they're blocked cause of...
2) an app gets the call from anonymous and speaks: "you've been blocked because of..." and ends the call after speaking finished.
i'd prefer the second way, so i could also use my mailbox when my phone is turned off.
i hope u understand everything i tried to explain.
feel free to ask ;-)
regards

First make group, which group U like to send to voice mail, and whom you just want to block without voice mail
Now from your device go to - call setting - forward your call to voice mail 'when Busy' mode
Use Root call blocker
define setting, and select method of block 'reject' for one, whom U want to send to voice mail
for rest of u may select alt reject/ slow reject as per ur selection n performance on ur device.
e.g for annonymous call U can send to voice mail, b'coz no method can send SMS to private numbers
For rest you can select to auto responce with SMS
Use YouMail. They have an app in the market too.
thank you, i'll have a look for you mail...i just see that i can't download this in germany...may i'm gonna looking for an apk =)
Yep, the two best ones are made by the same company:
Root Call Blocker (for general use):
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.rootcallblocker.beta
Call Master (for advanced users):
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.blacklist
These are the only blockers that completely block everything without turning the screen on. Need to be rooted though.

This module was previously developed by runnirr.
A majority of the information in the original post has been moved here:
Wiki on github
Alpha and beta testers needed!
If you're willing to communicate with me directly to test new features and/or ensure compatibility with your particular device and ROM feel free to PM me. I'd prefer to communicate via messaging on either hangouts or skype. I'm especially looking for people using Sense or Touchwiz based ROMs, but anyone can be helpful. If you can take a logcat and willing to test a barrage of experimental builds, I WANT YOU!
My own testing will take place on:
Nexus 7 2013 (FLO)
Dirty Unicorns DU_flo_4.4.4_20140826.v7.9-TESTBUILD
3.4.0-ElementalX-N7-2.14
XPosed + Nexus 7 SMS Enabler
==========So this is my first post releasing anything so hopefully this goes well.
Introduction
I exclusively use Google Voice for texting but find the features of other sms apps to be much better than the Google Voice apps. It seems other do as well since it is built into Cyanogenmod now. I decided to go back to stock and missed the option of using other sms apps with Google Voice. This is based largely off the Voice+ module from Cyanogenmod, but implements its own hooks to know when an sms message is being sent, or Google Voice message is being received.
Installation
Install Google Voice from the play store if you don't have it already
Install the XVoice+ apk from the downloads section at the end of this post
Enable XVoice+ in Xposed
Run the XVoice+ app and select your Google Voice account
Disable "Text Notifications" in the Google Voice app settings to avoid double notifications
Reboot your phone to enable the Xposed module
Note: It my take a few minutes after rebooting before your messages start showing in your sms app of choice. A toast will show when the service is up and running.
On a tablet
I don't have a modern tablet but @Link_of_Hyrule put together a small guide about how he got it working.

How it works
Sending
The VoicePlusService runs on startup and listens for a NEW_OUTGOING_SMS so that it knows when a message is being sent. Cyanogenmod made this a system-wide intent, but it is not available on all other roms. Instead, I made my own intent.
I hook all outgoing sms messages through the SmsManager and stops them from being sent. Instead I send my custom NEW_OUTGING_SMS intent that is picked up by the OutgoingSmsReceiver which then starts the VoicePlusService. The handling of sending the message via Google Voice is the same logic used in the Cyanogenmod app.
Receiving
Receiving message is done by hooking into the Google Voice app's PushNotificationReceiver. This means that we know of the message as soon as the Google Voice app does. Conveniently, this notification happens even when notifications in Google Voice are turned off, so you don't need to briefly see the Google Voice notification, have it disappear, and then see the sms notification.
Once we see we have an incoming Google Voice message, we broadcast another custom intent that is picked up by a IncomingVoiceReceiver which starts the VoicePlusService.The service then handles the message and broadcasts a system wide RECEIVED_SMS intent that is used by all sms applications.
Side Effects
Because of the way some system apps are being overwrote, I expect that some things will break.
All outoging SMS messages from apps that use the SmsManager will be intercepted and sent via Google Voice. To send via your carrier, select "Disable" within XVoice+
The app grants itself permission for BROADCAST_SMS which does not appear in the list of permission since it is a system level permission.
The app grants itself WRITE_SMS permisson on 4.4+ so that it can save messages in the sms history

No problem. I would be interested in your experience using it (basically if it works for you or not) or other feedback you have.
Awesome! I've been looking forward to something like this and I'm installing it right now. I'm running an N5 on 4.4.2. I'll post feedback as I have it.
I had a few questions:
1) Should we keep the Google Voice app installed and running?
2) If so, is the best way to not get dual notifications by disabling notifications via app info for Google Voice or disabling text notifications within the Google Voice app (so as to still get voicemail notifications)? Or maybe something else?
My initial testing looks like this works perfectly (tested with Hangouts and Textra)!

1) Yes the google voice app needs to stay installed. I hook into its notifcation system to know when new messages come in.
2) Disabling "Text notifications" in the Google Voice works and is simple. I don't know if there is another way that works. I assume voice mail messages will still come in correctly (I haven't had one since I've been running this)
Galaxy note 2 on sprint (sph-l900). My Google voice number is my sprint number.
My problem has always been that messages I send through the web never appear in the stock messaging app. With your module, it's a little better... I can get those messages that I send from the Web on my phone if and only if the recipient replies to the message before I send a message from my phone. For instance, if I send a message via the Web and immediately send another message via the hangouts app, the web message never gets synched to the hangouts app.
Otherwise, this is a fantastic module, something I can use daily. Thanks!
I use sliding messaging as it has Google Voice integration but there has always been problems with the way it receives gv sms. Is there any way to help the integration with that....maybe work with the team?
I use my regular text for personal business and the gv text for work. It's all integrated in the same app, Sliding Messaging... But receiving has never really worked properly...

I was able to reproduce that scenario (without Sprint integration). I'll look into it. This is likely a problem with CyanogenMod's version as well.

It is possible but it would be out of scope for this module. Also, it looks like Sliding Messaging is a paid app so I won't be looking into it. If another developer is interested in solving this use case, I can provide more information on how this one works.
Just as a followup, everything seemed to work fine for a couple hours but I'm currently seeing some issues. Messages aren't sending reliably (some go through, some do not) and texts aren't coming through reliably (i.e. they come in on Google Voice but not in the SMS app). I'm going to reboot and see if the problem persists. The issues could be due to external factors too (and I've been experimenting with switching the default texting app but I can't imagine that's related)
As a side note, is any of the code open source or are you looking for help from other developers? I don't have any experience building Xposed modules but I do have Android experience and have done software development for a long time.

Messages are sent using data/wifi (perhaps that is the problem with sending). 4.4.x made many changes in how sms messaging works. I tested briefly on 4.4.2 with hangouts (just to make sure there wasn't any huge issues). I'll try it out some more and see if I can find anything that would be causing it. Day-to-day i use 4.2.2 though.
As far as the source, its currently not uploaded anywhere, although I can share it if you are interested (in a day or so). This was my first Xposed module and it was pretty straight forward, just some reflection. Rovo89's guide is good. https://github.com/rovo89/XposedBridge/wiki/Development-tutorial

There is a link at the bottom of the first post for the apk. Download and sideload it. Its not in the xposed repo/installer yet.

ahh my apologies...I misread and was thinking both voice+apk and xvoice+ module were required for some reason. Thanks for clarifying for me. Thats what I get for posting at 4am.

Messages are sent using data/wifi (perhaps that is the problem with sending). 4.4.x made many changes in how sms messaging works. I tested briefly on 4.4.2 with hangouts (just to make sure there wasn't any huge issues). I'll try it out some more and see if I can find anything that would be causing it. Day-to-day i use 4.2.2 though.
As far as the source, its currently not uploaded anywhere, although I can share it if you are interested (in a day or so). This was my first Xposed module and it was pretty straight forward, just some reflection. Rovo89's guide is good.

Yeah I'm still seeing issues on 4.4.2 (functionality goes in and out) so if you could share the source that would be great. I can hack at it and post my findings/fixes if I have any.
Upon further review, it looks like sending is working (after reenabling and rebooting) but receiving is not. I'm not sure if it's an issue with the hook in Google Voice's notifications or in broadcasting the RECEVED_SMS (or something else?)

I finally got the source out and on Github. https://github.com/runnirr/XVoicePlus/
I cleaned up some stuff, and forked it from CyanogenMods (instead of just copying their files). The code on Github isn't the exact same that is posted in the OP (as of now) but everything seems to be working.
If you need help setting anything up let me know. Otherwise, feel free to mess around with the code.
Thanks for showing so much interest in this. Its good to know people are using it.
Can't wait to look into this. I will be downloading Xposed tomorrow and let you know how it works. I've been wanting to text through Hangouts instead of voice forever now. Thanks!

No problem. Let us know how it goes.
Also, I have uploaded the module to the Xposed repo http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.runnirr.xvoiceplus
It is different than what has been in the OP, but should be functioning the same as before. I'll put any new versions there.
Runnirr, you are the man. I was praying for this on Koush's g+ post the other day. http://goo.gl/RSWJNI
Look forward to testing and 1 million Internetz to you..

Hello guys.
I have been using 4A for about 6 months now. My calling is heavy due to nature of my work. However, I am really disappointed by the dialer which 4A comes with due to following reasons-
1. No unlimited call logs which is a very big bummer. It's such a basic thing any phone maker must provide.
2. Smart search from dialer is as bad as it can be. I'm coming from a Xiaomi phone and Google should really learn a few things how to make a dialer app. The search is billion times better in the latter.
3. Lack of call recording which I can live with but is desirable.
Basically I'm asking if I can install any third party dialer (preferably MiUI) ? I'm ready to root if it's needed.
Please help me. I'm on the verge of going back to my MIUI phone as my main phone just because of this crappy dialer.
PS: I can't go custom ROM way because I don't want to lose stock camera's quality.
Thanks

Try using TruePhone ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hb.dialer.free ). I have call recording and I have never came to a situation where call log was too short - I have checked my favorite contact and I have log since I installed it.
P. S. U have root on my phone, but I am not convinced if it is needed. Try it as IMHO is the best dialer with tons on customization.

Hi,
Can you elaborate on these two?
I ask because if I click the middle "Recents" button at the bottom, the call log is very limited. But if I then click the three dot button in the top right and select "Call History", it will go back very far in time.
Also, what problems are you having with the smart search? Can you mention a couple of examples?

I did check the history and surprisingly found out today that my call records are only till 6th of April from today and then directly to Oct 2020. Don't know how is that possible, but this is what I found.
I'll explain my problem to you.
When I bought this phone, I had imported around 10k call logs records but when I used to check history of numbers I dial frequently, I came to know it's not storing unlimited history. Like the person whom I have called 20 times has only 2 entries in the log.
Until today I didn't know that history between 20 Oct 2020 to April 5, 2021 is missing. I don't have a sane explanation for this.
Regarding smart search, see following scenarios:
It doesn't search if I type keywords which are between the names. Eg name is John, if I type 646, it should show but it doesn't. It always search with first letter only, be it name or surname.
Second case.
I have a name saved called Prathmesh, my dialer always fails to show it. I dial 77284, it shows other relevant search results but not this and when I type next digit, no results at all. In the frequent updates of Google dialer phone app, after one particular update, it started searching but after next update again stopped. This is one example, I can give more.
Third case.
It doesn't search from unsaved numbers. Suppose I vaguely remember I had received a call from a number which had 5555 at last but couldn't exactly remember, there is no way I could find using Google dialer.

Thanks for app suggestion buddy.
It solved almost all of my problems.
Now I can search the way I want, can record calls, and possibly can store unlimited logs.
Thanks a ton again.

I was happy with the app but now call recording isn't working.
I have been using drupe dialer (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.drupe.app&hl=en_US&gl=US) for many years to address exactly the problems that you have mentioned. You can give it a try. But here also, the inbuilt call recorder is not working with Pixel 4a. It used to work with my older Oneplus X.
