Specific Number forward - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

So lets say you have a call that come to you every day.. (of course it is a bill collector)
And you would like to forward that specific number to a dead phone number .. is that possible..
or make t so they cannot leave you a voice mail....
just wondering..

I use YouMail app. It has a blacklist feature.

I have tried the you mail in the past and it did not get along with me...
I really want a call forwarded so I can send it to funny phone numbers like 1800gmtruck etc...

I only know of that -- sorry.

Or.......
Deal with the person thats calling you, and resolve the bill....just a thought......g

There are plenty of call blocker apps in the play store. I forget the name of the one I use but it hasn't failed me yet.

The bill collectors are not for me, and they won't stop calling me... The worst thing about new numbers...the person who had the number previously...

understood....
there are currently 1685 call blocker apps on the play store. One of them has gotta work..I'd start on a few of those, and work your way up...:good:

I use call control. It comes with a built in data base already works well for me!

The next time that they call, get the caller's name, which debt collection agency that they represent, then repeat the following:
I have had this number for X years, I do not know NAME, now, or ever. Under the fair debt collection practices act you are required to never call this number again, any further calls will result in legal action.

This has worked with two separate DCAs who were chasing a medical debt on a number that I had had for five years at that time.

Fast Customer (beta) never wait on hold again

This app, I believe, can be found on the online market. It is maybe the best Android app since gmote(my wife and I used to fight over who had to go and press next episode while watching Netflix).
fast customer will call a customer support number and have them call you, instead of having to wait on hold. Genius!

Mr number caller id

I upgraded to the note from infuse and I always install Mr number. Well for some reason play store thinks it does not work with note. I had to get black market just to download and install it. Works fine for me in case anyone is looking to use it.

Well there is a catch. To enable the lookup of mobile phones you need to share your contacts with the mr number database for others to search against. At least that's the way it was, I am unsure if it has changed

Phishing
Sounds more or less like a data / number mining scheme to me, I don't think the majority of my contacts would want me to share their cell numbers with a company. Land lines (except unpublished) are pretty much a given anyway. But to share cell numbers with a company? I bet debt collectors use this route to find peoples cell numbers to harass them.

You can get it from there website , they are dealing with google pulling it from the play store. They wont tell the reason , but i installed it and not a few hours later i started getting hang up calls which ive never had before from random numbers. Its a popular app but i dont trust it.
Well that would be a problem but the app also allows u to report spam to block calls with single tap. With my phone being my business phone I like the control of blocking suspected spam without answering. Also when first time callers call and I need to save their number the name and info already there just one tap and saves me time. And time is money.

Yep!
That's a bit much, don't you think. There are apps I'm sure to forward txts and number dialled. Not what URLs are typed I wouldn't have thought. I'll have a look and post back. You can also get GPS location apps which are hidden too... Sounds freaky and wrong all this.
You sure your not spying on somebody else other than your daughter?

GPS Spy MobileGPSpy and Secret SMS Replicator are two apps you might like to look at.
Is there any mobile app to check the data usage of all the connections on the same network.
Assume i have a wireless router, i want to check which connection is using how much data of my wireless network at real time through my mobile.
Damn bro, I feel for you. Check out "paw server" May not be exactly what you're looking for but has many features to put your mind at ease.

You can block certain URLs with rom toolbox pro, but could be, that there is a slimmer app to fulfill your task.
However, I guess you'll need root and an app to hide other apps.

when you want to block all 3x sites you should install a "per -ip" filter...to unblock only IP's that "meet your morality"
let me talk to em and i'll show them how to unblock sites and everything else you think is dirty. WITHOUT admin priivileges.

dumb is a matter of definition. Ok, nothing against illegal things like [torrenting, etc - where can get caught ] but, really...what leads parents to censor their kids internet?

good can't always combat the naivete of youth. An alert parent can sense somethings up so if he/she feels the need to dig deeper than I'm glad such tools exist. Frankly that's part of the job. Kids in general don't do as well with parents who are always trying to be there buddy. Just be sure that if you do find something to not disclose methods and means and F it up for others
This is going nowhere fast.

SMS issues due to stupid iMessages

So my DNA came in last night and traded in my i*hone for it. Good decision. Any ways I can not get texts from iPhone users because apple still thinks I have an iPhone and use imessages.. I don't knowing anyone else had this problem but I would like so help with this predicament .

I believe you need to go through iTunes to delink your phone number from iMessages. I may be wrong but I remember reading something in another thread about that. When you set up your iMessage, what did you do? I was under the impression that you had to do something with iTunes or there was a sync setting, something along those lines.
I just checked a box on the iPhone. Strange things were happening all my texts were being sent to a family member with an iPhone, I turned it off on their phone and now I am recieving texts.. I will probably call apple and see if they can take my number off the server or something

SPYWARE, are you safe?

So I think someone installed spyware on my phone. Is there anyway I can get rid of it, prevent it, and blank the persons blank for doing? The software has to leave a trail of some kind, doesn't it? Don't laugh, it's pretty easy to get on your phone from what I have read, and they can get a lot of info from your phone, listen to your calls, location updates, read your texts and emails, no good or cool.
It'd help if you say what app it is it what evidence there is spyware on your phone

If I am being spied on, how would I know what app it is? Proof? People know things they shouldn't, I'm not going into details, trust me. I believe they listen to the people I speak with thru my phone and one other persons phone close to me. Information these other people always seem to know about us when they shouldn't know. Phone gets warm for no reason, weird numbers, noises and beeps during calls, sometimes we each hear other people talking during our calls. My girl and I both have DNA's, it also happened when we had RAZRs and Fascinates. Her phones, the battery always dies a lot faster than my phones always did. My phone is 90% of the time on wifi, hers not, and her data is always high, she doesn't use her data at all, other than a few emails here and there.

Only way you would have spyware is if your face your phone to someone and they installed an app on it.
Or the fbi is watching you. But I'd go with the former over the latter.

Well if people know things they shouldnt I'd check the people you told lol. The other person you were calling most likely told. If it happens on every phone then that's not any spyware on your phone. That's some other type of Anonymous (the group) type hacking.... But honestly it sounds like your puffin too hard on that loud my friend

Also your carrier preloads carrier iq on your phone it's a type of monitoring software. So yeah. Root + custom Rom + non cdma network = fun times.

I know you guys think I'm nuts, but look up cellphone spyware. I wish I could say who is doing it, but that is sensitive info. And it isn't necessarily bad things they know. Just when we go over there they always bring up stuff my girl and I just talked about. When are phone are on us they never ever call. If we both leave our phones at home for a few hours, like when we take the bike out, all the sudden they call constantly. There's tons more. I just want to know how to remove it and prevent it.
It's there, it's real, and all too easy these days to spy on someone using there cell. I've read it can reinstall it self after you factory reset your phone and it is virtually undetectable. Every time we buy new phones the person I speak of sends a text with a pic, after that we never get texted by them. Or after an update (OTA) or otherwise. I was just hoping I could get some real sound advice being this is XDA.
Check it out, I was thinking about doing it to the suspected persons

You still need to install it on the phone. You can't push it on the phone without you knowing. Like it says on the website you linked to, it's either a link you need to click on, a qr code, or copy the install file from a computer via usb.
Either way, just do a factory reset.

That's only one, I guess there are some that can remote install now.
