Interesting idea - will be looked into.

RE call waiting - is this only happening during a blocking schedule, or also when scheduling is not supposed to be blocking that type of caller?

Also looking into it, but for our next app most likely. RCB is very complicated code at the moment and line audio might just push it over the edge...

Can you please explain all that in more detail. I dont understand the conditions youre describing...
[Android Apps and Games] DreamWiva:
Haha novel idea !

Just play "You have dialled an incorrect number" recording when you never want someone to phone you back again ! The true root call blocker haha
[Android Apps and Games] blaine07:
Something about this application does NOT play well with Synergy Rom for my Thunderbolt. It will NOT receive MMS and only sometimes send. I think I send you the debug log but... I can only sometimes send and usually NOT receive them. With application installed when I go into stock Messages application and go into MMS connection settings it shows nothing, with application uninstalled the MMS settings are there and correct and I can send/receive MMS as expected. It is like it keeps it from populating the proper settings so MMS can be sent/received.

I love this application and depend greatly on it, but I love my Roms too. Please advise?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Please send another log.

YOU MUST DESCRIBE THE PROBLEM IN DETAIL IN THE DEBUG MENU

If you do this now, i will look into it. This app is not supposed to block mms at all. However, you may be receiving mms from a number that falls into one of the categories you have blocked... or rcb could be restarting the ril daemon during the mms settings download or something. cdma is so annoying...
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Not novel at all - and noone has made it work yet. Doesnt mean we wont be able to - we are pretty cunning you know ;)
[Android Apps and Games] fafrehugen:
None of those apps work - they just dont play any sound...
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Yep i just tried them all and they dont work at all.
[Android Apps and Games] parcou:
RE call waiting - is this only happening during a blocking schedule, or also when scheduling is not supposed to be blocking that type of caller?

-------------------

Just during blocked scheduling for contact category "job" during the after work hours when blocking is enabled by the scheduler... Only using one profile and that is 'default'
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
In this profile, do you have any number groups added - ie unrecognized or all not in contact book or whatever?
[Android Apps and Games] blaine07:
After thinking I'm not sure a debug log would help much. The application never crashes or errors anytime while trying to send/receive mms. I just know its somehow related to the problem & the other things I've told you. Uninstalling lets all mms settings be there properly. Only people I block are not in address book & mms were coming from a contact.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
I assure you, it will. We dont use logcats, our daemon has its own very powerful logging system.

Send the log and i will help. Itll take all of a few minutes!
[Android Apps and Games] garywojdan81:
I have used the pro version of this app for quite some time w/o any problems, but I've recently changed phones & now an issue has begun. I've switched to a Motorola Droid X2 on GB 2.3.3 & since day one rcb will kill my 3g not long after install. If I set it to start on boot, 3g comes on then drops out & never comes back. The only way to restore it is to uninstall the app. Trying to get you a log later today.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Hi - are you using a cm-based rom?
[Android Apps and Games] garywojdan81:
Nope. Its the stock rom, just rooted & debloated. It is not deodexed, but I didn't think that should matter. I ran this on the same phone with stock, rooted 2.2.2 w/o issue.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
OK just reboot your phone, start rcb and click "write to us".
[Android Apps and Games] garywojdan81:
Log is sent, thanks for looking into it.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Ill look into it soon - we have a new product beta coming out troday, so it wont be as soon as id like!
[Android Apps and Games] garywojdan81:
Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] blaine07:
Log coming your way from my username here @ gmail. Let me know.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] fafrehugen:
I see the app is on sale :) only 1.98? thats crazy man!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Project Omega is coming, so we are having a haphazard sale to increase general awareness!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Guys, we have a sale on - the app is only $1.98 for a short while. (usually its $5.98)!
[Android Apps and Games] blaine07:
Did you receive my debug log last night?
[Android Apps and Games] rustymcbain:
Dude i just bought the app yesterday. So just missed the sale. But was wondering if there is some people still getting calls thru with a dx2 running eclipse?
[Android Apps and Games] zerkai:
How much longer is the sale? Is project omega a major update for RCB?
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
I cannot answer either question...
[Android Apps and Games] mancukya:
make an app put it on xda, people take the risk and helps tray for you

$1.98 good

XDA users your cobay now ?
[Android Apps and Games] fafrehugen:
Bloody troll... why dont you make an app smartass? Oh yeah - you cant make, you just troll.

Fahrbot apps are the best, theyre one of our top devs. Respect him or not, the quality speaks for itself douche.
[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
fahrbot, hurry up with the Project Omega announcement...the suspense is killing me :p
[Android Apps and Games] parcou:
Sorry for the late reply. They are all in contacts. Co-workers call me on their cell of from the job after hours. So I added them to contacts so I know there person called and put them all in a category..
[Android Apps and Games] mancukya:
What Troll ?

Only troll here its you. in Android market for call blocking you have 100 apps.

This guy not respect XDA users.

I have not respect for this guy. i used this app, I like the risk why ?

App 1 cent or 1.99 enjoy it.

Stopyour troll and speak just for you.

This app without XDA its nothing just 1 call blocker like other in the market.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Why exactly is it you think i have no respect for XDA rules?

And what exactly makes RCB just like all the other blockers? Talk about the blind leading the blind...
[Android Apps and Games] Kurupt1:
Maybe cuz your rude to a lot of the good people on here?!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Sounds like an error - send a log with description please, ill be doing some fixes tomorrow (because we are all working on a saturday trying to get omega off the ground).
[Android Apps and Games] mancukya:
Why this app started in free now ? you made ​​the advertisement on XDA

Cool man you have realy respect for XDA and This community just enjoy.
[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
I never knew people could be so cheap! LOL:p
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
I can barely understand what you're saying so I'll assume you didn't read the description back when the app was in beta three months ago.

This is normal practice on XDA. The beta is free, but during its run there was a very cheap donate version.

It was VERY CLEARLY STATED that the beta will expire. Anyway, I don't know why I'm bothering with this, as you should know better having registered way back in 2006!
[Android Apps and Games] daveid:
Yeah, this was very clear from the beginning, I don't know why (well, I do know why, but that is a different matter all together, call it psychological problems) this is even a subject of discussion. You do, as a lot of developers on xda do as well - probably because of all the stupid asses bothering the crap out of you over stupid non-issues like this, come across as crass from time to time... but I have grown to take that with a grain of salt, for the reasons I hinted at just now.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Thanks, always nice to know there is sanity in this world still.

And now i am going to drink some tasty bulgarian vodka. Thats all from me folks, have a nice weekend :)
[Android Apps and Games] fafrehugen:
Yep - it must be hell dealing woth the noobs have a look at this (sorry if offtopic)!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Have a look at what mate? Forgot the link ;)
[Android Apps and Games] mancukya:
surely you are 1. XDA has never was a corner commercial.

Dude never insult people here.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Listen dude - youre trolling my thread again. One more comment and i will be asking one of my friends to warn you further.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Oh and just a reminder - the market descriptions for my apps all ask people to visit the XDA thread for support.

This leads to new members at xda, which leads to more ad hits, which leads to paying server costs and so on.

There are at least 20 similar threads in the Apps and Games section. They wont like trolling there either...
[Android Apps and Games] orb3000:
On-topic please

Ok guys/gals,

Please stay on topic and avoid insulting, let´s help Developers here, they just present their work for FREE to all of us.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Thanks orb. You da man, dog!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
So now that were back on topic... issues? Suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
App has been updated:

1.6.3:

Improved daemon

Some rare number processing/ blocking issues fixed

Schedules tweaked to be more intuitive

Small startup bug fixed

Some strings rewriten

Enjoy a HOLIDAY release from my greek bungalow overlooking the med :)

App is only $3 while im relaxing - see how the sun can affect a man?
[Android Apps and Games] fafrehugen:
Very nice, thanks. The adding dialog rework is cool!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Please let me know if you have issues!
[Android Apps and Games] SNIPR:
Does this allow you to block mms from only certain contacts? Lets say I want to block just mms from John Smith. But receive standard txt/calls from John Smith?
[Android Apps and Games] DreamWiva:
No issues yet, works great as always. Seriously, the app is perfect !
[Android Apps and Games] :
Forget about all the haters ftg lol this app is the closest thing to perfect that will ever be written :)
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Awww thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
This app doesnt block MMS. Where in the list of features do you see that?
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Price is back to $4!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Any issues with 163?
[Android Apps and Games] saxgr:
Suggestions

Hi it's a very good application and works great on my HD2

Sugestions:

1) Password to open the application

2) Widget for enable-disebled with sign (like buttons on power control)

3) Another one Block method: selection randomly 1 out of 3 anytime

4) Select all the telephones in a contact (ex.:to have only 1 name in the profile list not 5 times the same name with different number)

5) Ability to add a group of contacts (ex. favorites)

6) Block Sms

7) Ability to export/import settings, lists

Thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] 3mendo:
Very good app, i think that with these 7 point (the #3 is not really important imho) it would be the greatest call/sms blocking app... and i'd pay for that.
[Android Apps and Games] AndriodLover:
I just tested it on desire hd, but it is not working. there are two rings before the call is rejected :(

Edit: ARdhd 5.1.4
[Android Apps and Games] ksmullins88:
downloaded and installed again. works perfect. best one ive used.
[Android Apps and Games] fba1:
Works great on my EVO running VirusROM GengerSense ReV B3. I really like the fact it does not ring my phone at all, and can basically pickup and hang up the caller if needed.

Still playing with it but maybe a suggestion to have it where certain numbers or blacklist options do not show up at all in the logs.
[Android Apps and Games] YPhoto:
#4 & 5 would be nice for me as well. I have a group set up as "Blocked Users", I would love to be able to add a number to this group and have it blocked with your app because the group was already selected to block. It would make maintenance easier for me at least.

Love the app so far, thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] meazz1:
I've been running this for last few days and really like it.

My ROM has a built in Blacklist but I am using RCB.
[Android Apps and Games] ranasrule:
very nice....working great on Desire
[Android Apps and Games] Candlemass:
Works nicely on Desire HD rooted w/ stock ROM.

I also prefer the "alternative" blocking method as it rejects the caller more quickly (it sort of combines the first ring sound with the rejection sound and gives a better result to what I expect from a call blocker).

One thing I'd like to see improved is that it doesn't block numbers from the contact list when they have the country code in front (I have to manually add the number with an '*' in front, in order to successfully block it).

Otherwise, this is one of the best blocker apps I've tested! Keep up the good work.
[Android Apps and Games] garywojdan81:
Update: Redownloaded & reinstalled after upgrading my radio/rom & now it is working as described. Setting to alternate reject works best for me. On tsm's comm.rom & ed01 modem for the verizon fascinate. Thank you for your work on this great app.
[Android Apps and Games] ssmaster:
Is there a way to black multiple entries from multiple contacts quickly? What I mean is, Over the years I have been saving the numbers of bill collectors all under bill1, bill2, bill3 etc; and each contact has numerous numbers associated to it. In my few minutes with the app, It looks like I have to go into each contact and select each number individually.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
I will look into this...

The functionality is there - just click on "Add from contact list" and choose an entry with more than one number. You can select multiple numbers from the popup.
[Android Apps and Games] ssmaster:
You just told me to do basically what I asked if there was a way to avoid. Now I have to select about 300 individual numbers..... not fun.
[Android Apps and Games] dr.ketan:
Crashing on boot, 3out of 4 time it crashed when i reboot device, report send to developer
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Are you certain you have root? You would be surprised just how often this can be an issue, even among XDA members...

Anyway, we have a big update with SMS blocking coming later today!
[Android Apps and Games] k1ngju571n:
Okay. Sorry it's taken me so long to answer. Been working a lot. Like I said previously, I'm on the Sprint network. I've got the profile setup to block unknown and block blocked calls. That's it.
[Android Apps and Games] garywojdan81:
Same here. Crash report sent every time. Looking forward to the update with sms.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Its coming in the next 20 minutes!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
A major update has been applied, please update your installation and get testing!
[Android Apps and Games] dr.ketan:
Ya surely rooted !

Just got update, after updating once i have reboot, and passed successfully without any FC issue, hope it now works like this everytime:)

SMS feature also added in updated version, just missing restore function for blocked msg if possible....

Thanks ..
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Need some feedback please!
[Android Apps and Games] xtam:
'No news is GOOD news' :).

everything working fine by now. thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Indeed indeed :)
[Android Apps and Games] blade3200:
I've used your app on SGS and actually on SGS II and it's the bomb :-)

Never let's you down.

To me is really good to be able to see a movie (or be playing) a don't be disturbed by some rejected call.

I've started to use this kind of app on Iphone (with Mcleaner and IBlacklist), then moved to Android and tried several apps but RCB is the best.

You've asked for the behavior of 163 and i wave to say that works fine.

The only problem, to me, i've detected is :

with several profiles and different black lists, if on one black list i make "delete all" them all the other black lists on the other profiles become empty to (tested on 163).

If possible, in the future, could you make :

- MMS blocking (ultimately i've been receiving spam via MMS )

- a widget to put on screen that allow to rapidly change profile (and view with one is active)

- translations

- allow individual edition of elements on black / white lists (actually only "delete/delete all" is allowed)

- allow export of individual lists (black or white)

Thanks for the great app and keep the good work
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Please send a log, be sure to describe the whole thing with the delete all!

Use "Write to us" in the app.
[Android Apps and Games] guidoido004:
My ex came ask me what was that, when i told i was using it to dont receive calls and messages from someone. Lol! Great app, great solution to dont be disturbed for people you dont like
[Android Apps and Games] blade3200:
I've just send the log's via app.

Thanks for your time.
[Android Apps and Games] :
What is this Omega thing?
[Android Apps and Games] iqandjoke:
Thanks for the great software provided. Could I import vcard/csv files into this software?

Ref: hkjunkcall.com/web_software.asp
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Theres a few hints about... youll just have to search for em :)

It may, or may not. But omega may be of more use to you...
[Android Apps and Games] miro666:
After upgrading from 1.6.2 on 1.6.3 (Pro versions) somwhat always allowed list (all contact numbers) was blast, and block call (I was missed many calls). I was must repeat make allowed list after upgrading, and after that was all right...Strange, isnt it?

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] :
Ok I have a feature challenge for you lol

At times I will add contacts to the blacklist from my contact list and then delete them from my phone contacts. Can you add a feature or option on long press per contact to remove from phone contacts and also to restore to phone contacts? Lol that might be a tough one and a case of beer :)
[Android Apps and Games] fafrehugen:
Latest update is very stable for me!
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Good to know. Any errors, please use "Write to us" in Settings.
[Android Apps and Games] :
I had the app(bought) and got rid of my email address because i had it for years and it was spam city and didnt realize it would mess up market and my purchased apps lol

I factory reset my phone and made a new google account just for market. Am I screwed or is there anyway to get my paid version of RCB back without buying it on my new account?
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
There is no way. But google can transfer between accounts, so you should contact them.
[Android Apps and Games] :
I can see that as an all day job, is it going on sale anytime soon? Lol
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
You just missed the sale!
[Android Apps and Games] :
How long does the trial last?
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Forever...
[Android Apps and Games] :
Can you make status bar pulldown notification text white?
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Yeah I've been meaning to do that for ages...
[Android Apps and Games] :
I said screw it and bought it again.. well worth it :) What is omega? lol I cant find it
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Thanks, consider me part of your fan club!

Omega is coming soon - the open beta will arrive in the next two weeks hopefully, at which time ill be sure to let everyone know about it ;)
[Android Apps and Games] :
How long did it take you with trial and error to develop this program? Do you have a group of people or by yourself? Did you know java already in depth? I am beginning to learn java :)
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
There are 3 people working on RCB. Its one of the more complex applications on Android - i really wouldnt start learning java here mate, especially since most of it is written in native.
[Android Apps and Games] cmlusco:
Works almost perfect on my dinc running leaked gb ota. The only issue i ever have is sometimes it somehow lets blocked callers thru to voicemail. It still dosent ring and i get the notification that the call was blocked, but a couple secs later i will get a voicemail from the number. I am using the paid version set to use whitelist allowing all contacts and any number from my area code. I have it set to reject blocked callers. Other than that issue rcb is the best and most accurate call blocking app on the market, and believe me ive tried them all.
[Android Apps and Games] YouArePoop:
If it's purpose is to block calls, why does it need access to make calls and send text, as well as intercept outgoing calls?
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
App updated. Let me know if you have issues!
[Android Apps and Games] blade3200:
New 1.6.4 working great.
[Android Apps and Games] parcou:
sent log...

on a call, block callers ring in via call waiting....old notice my bad for not sending logs when you asked doc...
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Is this a sense rom that youre using parcou?
[Android Apps and Games] parcou:
How I forgot to add that....yes which I feel is the problem but yes...
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Yep its the damn sense. We will look into it as soon as people come back from the holidays.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Any other issues on 164? No craziness with the license check?
[Android Apps and Games] blade3200:
Smooth license check :-)

No craziness
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Excellent!
[Android Apps and Games] :
No license check here... Atrix on 4.5.91
[Android Apps and Games] eresac:
My PRO one has updated nice, and it's working perfectly as usual.

...no need to write here also (over the market) my total appreciation for the app and its development...:)
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Thanks guys. Please have a look at some of my other apps they are also good. Some are newer than rcb and have all my awesome power x 10...
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
I take it there are no issues with 164?
[Android Apps and Games] xtam:
not yet.

:D
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Good, good :)
[Android Apps and Games] parcou:
Thx....I wont be too hopeful have heard in the pass sense is the issue....but I am not a developer either just want what I heard...
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
We will fix it, we just need good logs to do it quickly! If you could perhaps reproduce the error and sent logs today, we might fix it by tomorrow.

Oh by the way - another update has just been released, we are now on 165, a major build with a new daemon. Let me know if any issues arise please!
[Android Apps and Games] :
Custom Color perfect. :)

Atrix 4.5.9.1 on DarkSide1.3 with stock kernel getting license error.. didnt get it on last version :(
[Android Apps and Games] parcou:
NP...I can put the phone in block mode and have someone from the job call me now while on the phone and send the log
[Android Apps and Games] :
could you auto-start RCB after the update? pure calendar widget and tasker do this.

and please don't show me the annoying popup about the best todo widget that has ever been known to mankind. i won't buy it, even if you show it to me after EVERY update.

update working fine here.
[Android Apps and Games] NicholasQ:
Ok guys, I have searched many pages through this thread and have found hints but no solid answers to what I am wondering... Does this app COMPLETELY block a call? And when I mean completely, I mean that the person doesn't even get to my voicemail? What does the person hear when calling me? I'm trying to figure out if this app works better than the setup I have now...
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
It already autostarts. And as for your comment on Moogly, all i can say is that on RCB update days sales of Moogly increase by 50%, so youll have to live with it.
[Android Apps and Games] ftgg99:
Why oh why lord are people so DENSE? Why ask when you can try?

Voicemail is a carrier-set property. If you set up voicemail, voicemail is what you will get when a call does not connect.

Also, its not possible to block a call that you do not know is there. Therefore, a call must connect in order to be blocked.
