Blocking Calls - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there an option to block calls from specified phone #?
I used to be able to add blacklist certain numbers on my Samsung Galaxy S4 without having to download any app.
I'd like to know if it is possible to do the same thing on my Z2.
Thanks!

I am using Avast A V & AT and it does the job really well.

[Request]Blocking mode (S3, SII)

Hey XDA,
Is there a way to port the blocking mode from the SII or the S3 firmware. I don't know if it is in the S3 Mini.

Blocking mode is a feature evolved from the disable all notifications feature found on ICS and Honeycomb devices. It is a cool feature that allows you to block calls and other notifications without the need for Root access... Blocking Mode is useful in a number of ways especially turning off all notifications, calls and even SMS when you're asleep. It's a great way to conserve battery overnight when you need the phone least.
As far as I know, most Samsung Devices running Jellybean out of the box also has this feature...

Hi
any progress on this bro.. I tried a port from s3 mini a theme I could get blocking mode on the notification toggle when I long press it takes me there all option are there everything fine... but it doesn't work... any one know how to install it in firmware... I could manage only in system ui... means only visibility no functionality??
hi ppl
posting here after a long time..
to get blocking mode try this:
1.install a custom launcher like nova or apex
2. go to activities by long pressing on the home screen
3.navigate to settings or something like services
and i'm sure you'll find blocking mode there...!!

If you don't want to install a 3rd party launcher, go to google play and search for quickshortcutmaker. It has a search option that should find blocking mode. It found it on my phone and made a shortcut. Hope this helps some

[MOD][Xposed] Multi-window for ALL apps

I did not see this feature available by itself, but I did some digging and found and tested a version that works on the Note 2 (See this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048668
For reference it works on my deodex rom (see pic), not sure about odex (or if any Xposed mod works on odex for that matter).
Happy modding!
Works on stock rooted odex.

confirmed.. awesome.. was my favorite part about my note.. glad to see it works on the S4
Please excuse my ignorance... I just rooted my phone and haven't changed anything (no ROM, just stock the way it came out of the box)... I take it that's odex? Should work?
Thanks!!
edit: I tried it anyway and it worked... a little slow but working Now I can use my phone and calendar at the same time... makes it a BAZILLION times easier to dial-in to conferences!!

Yes, you are Odex. According to above it will work for you. Just install the .apk. I wouldn't use the 240 version.
tried it on Hyperdrive and works perfect
Multi Window Manager works as well if you dont want to use Xposed https://play.google.com/store/apps/...EsImNvbS5iamJpbmMubXVsdGl3aW5kb3dtYW5hZ2VyIl0.
This really should be in General.
There is no development. Its a link to an App and someone elses work.

Works perfect on S4 to get around the bug where it drags a different icon just load all the apps you want to have multi window then reboot and they will be in alphabetical ordered and its easier to drag them in place and keep the icons you want.

1) Have you installed the Xposed framework?
2) Have you enabled the module within the xposed?

tnx for your replay
have a way to install this for s5?
there is a built in work-around bro, turn on air wakeup in accessibility setting, you can wake up your phone by gesture. my tip is you dont need to follow the illustration exactly, just a light swipe near phone sensor is enough to wake up your phone. somehow I find it more comfortable than knock on

Try the Blacklist app. Works very well on my Xperia T2 Ultra, 4.4.2. You'll need Xposed Framework and AppOps module too

Try MinMinGuard in Xposed.
Always support the developer. I personally pause games by clicking on the ads
