Delete single phone number

Is it possible cancel a single phone number instead of all calls or all the calls for a contact?
I have italian ROM version 1.19.408.1.
Thanks in advance

are you talking about deleting a call in the call history? if so, here's how to hide your mistress' calls.
Press the send key to pull up the phone app & then the bottom left of the dialer there is a Call History button. that will bring up all the individual calls & you can select & delete & hide your affair.
enjoy

Thanks for your answer but your advice doesn't work in my phone with the european rom reported above. I need to delete a single phone to a dialer and not all the phone calls to that dialer.
FOr exampke if I call a friend 10 times and he can't answer I will found in my call history all the 10 calling and this generates confusion, so I want to be free to delete wath I want in my history call to obtain the better information I need.
If in the future, as you mention , I will need to make some "mistress calls" I will use a first generation phone (never a pocket PC phone ) and another sim card but it is not time yet .
Thanks in advance for your cooperation

Call you post a screenshot of what pops up when you press the Call History icon on the dialer? I'd like to see if it's the same as mine.

This was a feature I was also looking for.
I found this on a ROM with Manila 2.5. I apologize but I forgot which one. The ROM was a bit unstable so I am presently using another. I will PM the OP with the ROM I used.
---edit---
It was a ROM with Manila 2.5 build 23049

You can delete all calls to an individual caller (or all calls to all callers) but on Manila 2.1 it is not possible to delete a single call to that caller.

It is possible on 2.1 doing what i described. from the Phone/Dialer, press the bottom left icon for Call History & it will bring up individual calls (sort of like the old WM way) & you can press & hold a single call & it will pop up with an option to delete or you can do it through the Menu.

Wow... I can't believe it was right in front of my eyes the whole time! I was going through my call history from the 6.1 contacts.
Thanks
And for the record, it's the icon directly to the left of the Talk button when you bring up the dialer.

The icon to the left of TALK button on my TP2 toggles between voice calls and video calls. There is no Call History icon
Call History can be called up using the right softkey Menu > Call History, or click on the icon to the right of the call entry, which only gives me the option to delete all calls to that particular caller.

hmm, must be a US only thing then.

Yes, I can't find it on my European version of the TP2.
I think freakingwilly did mention a way to do it: through the 'Contacts' app in the 'All Programs' list.
t's a bit fiddly, but the way I've done it is:
1. Press the Phone/Send key to get a list of recent calls, and hit the button to the right side of that entry to get to the Contact Details page
2. Once you're there, press 'More' in the Information section
3. This will bring you out of TouchFLO into Windows Mobile 6.1 page for that contact
4. Tap on 'Last Call' (this will only be present if there is any call history to see)
5. You'll see a list of last calls for that contact which you can delete individually.
Note that this only works if that number is in your phonebook contact list - I haven't found a way to delete unknown callers short of saving them to my phonebook first.

Correct !

Indeed, it's a US thing.
The simplest thing I've found is simply to exist TF3D/Sense. I have installed the Darkness Toggler for TF3D Sense/Titanium/SpbShell. Once out of Sense, the option to hold down and delete individual calls is there.

I have US Tmo 6.5 rom. Press and hold does not bring up any menu for me and the moment I let it go, it simply dials that number for me.

@see_u_then:
What you described comes from the TF3D-Sense. Once you get quit sense, you will get the option to delete. As I said in the note above yours, I simply toggle between shells (TF3D/Spb Shell/Titanium). I get the option in all shells (or no shell) except in TF3D-Sense.
(As an aside, it's interesting that they removed this option in the TF3D-Sense2.1. The option was there in the WM6.1/TF3D Manila2.1 version that I had before the "update").

Call log? How to not have sms log to it?

Just wondering if anyone has looked at this in the official Froyo? I text a bunch and don't want that logged in the phone log.

yes, it's REALLY annoying
I have NO clue why the developers thought this was GOOD

You can hit the menu button when in the call log and then 'View by' and change what's shown, but unfortunately, there's no option that will give you only 'all call info' regardless if you dialed, received/answered or missed them.

Yeah this much Ive found, but I've also found it isn't a persistant setting, doesn't stay (and I haven't figured out what causes to to default back to show all.)
This might be the one dumbest things about this release.

Blacklist from Call Log on Andromedus beta 4?

I recall in CM7 that blacklisting numbers from the call log (long press on the number, then press blacklist) was possible, but I haven't seen that option since starting to use ICS. Am I missing something? Is this still possible? Does it require a different caller apk?

I recall this as well in CM7. In ICS, it is integrated into the new "People" app (previously Contacts).
From what I remember, blacklisting in CM7 sent all calls from that person directly to voicemail. To reach this from the Dialer app in CM9:
- Click on the contact's icon
- Click the image again to go to their contact in the People app
- Open the menu and select "All calls to voicemail"
Hope this helps!

Thanks; that is close, it's actually what I do now. The nice feature about the blacklist was you didn't have to have the person added as a contact. The caller wouldn't show up in missed calls, either. Sending "all calls to voicemail" still requires adding the person as a contact and logs that as a missed call.
Close, but no cigar.

I use Avast! for this. It has a bunch of blacklist / call screening options that work on a root level to bypass the dialer. It can also keep logs & such if you want, but keeps it out of the main dialer logs. I definitely recommend!

Voicemail Notification

So lately, I've been amazed at the number of calls that I've gotten that haven't left voicemail. I just got four today. So I decided to check my voicemail, and sure enough, I have a bunch of messages. I'm not sure why, but suddenly my voicemail notification icon is not displaying in the notification area. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, is there a fix?

My wife and I both have the Note 4 on VZW and we have this same issue. I'll get calls all week and think nobody left a message. Then I'll go log in and find I have like 10 waiting. I am pretty sure we used to get notifications, but not for the past 2-3 months at least.
I feel like someone must have an idea what the issue is. I really don't want to go to the store to wait in line for someone to tell me I am wrong.

My wife also has the Note 4, and her notifications come through just fine. I wonder if it has to do with that visual voicemail abomination that they force on our phones. I've gotten in the habit of checking my voice mail manually, whenever I have a missed call. I shouldn't have to do that.

I had the same issue. *611 customer service eventually ended up with a voice mail customer service rep. It seems there was a "Update" pushed by Verizon that conflicts with Galaxy Device voicemail notifications. She "adjusted" the settings on her end and had me reboot, then test called me, Voila, the little tape recorder pops up and my notifications now show an unanswered voicemail. I asked if there was a way for a consumer to reset from their end, she said no, a Verizon Network adjustment is necessary.

I just called and had the same thing done. I have the developer edition note 4 but that doesn't matter according to verizon tech support. notifications work now.
the verizon support specialist told me that verizon had put out an update to those users who got phones after the beginning of the year to 'opt' in to premium voicemail. apparently this messes up the users account voicemail protocol to where they don't receive notifications if they opt out of visual voicemail and just rely on basic 'old school' voice mail. the tech had to 'block' visual voicemail features and configure my account for use with JUST basic old school voicemail. hope this helps.

You're think that they could push another update that would fix it, without everyone who has the problem having to call in and take up customer service time.

I had to call them too.

Most likely enough people "opt in" for $3.99 (or whatever it actually is) a month to make it all worth while...

hey, so I hate googling for solutions and not getting answers so i signed up to help solve this problem
open the phone menu
click the three dots on the upper right and hit settings
select 'call'
under where it says 'voice mail service' near the bottom, add an alert sound for voice mails and select vibrate (if you want to)
next, open the general phone settings (looks like a gear) and go to 'sound and notifications'
go to 'application notifications'
scroll all the way down and select 'voicemail'
click 'set as a priority' so it says 'turn on'
I'm sorry I can't post photos along with it, but the xda forums don't allow new posters to add pictures to their posts until they've posted ten things. (understandable but v frustrating)
The verizon rep (who was very kind and personable) walked me through these steps.
I hope this helps everybody in this thread and all the people hunting from google as well! :]

You lost me at "open the general phone settings". Where is this located?

I'm sorry, I should have been more specific with that.
On the bottom right of the customizable menu right at the bottom of your home screen, click the dot button that says 'Apps' on it. I'm not sure how many pages of apps you have, but it will list all your apps on the phone. It's called 'Settings' and the icon for it is a silver/white gear with a blue circle in the middle of it. Does that help?

Yup. So settings. I go in to it through the notification area, but it's the same thing.
I don't have any menu items that are titled "Application Notifications". Perhaps because I am still on 4.4.4?

THANK YOU!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to post this solution! Worked for me!

I'm also on 4.4.4 and I'm quite lost on that second part of the instructions. Could someone please explain?
Thank you.

I'm stuck, too. I don't have Sound and Notifications. Just Sound. On 4.4.4 as well.

Did you sign up for visual vm?

Enable voicemail notification on Samsung Galaxy 6
If you aren't receiving voicemail notifications, this is a system error. You have to reset your voicemail. Goto: Settings, Applications, Application Manager. You may have to swipe the screen to the left twice so that it says ALL at the top. Then scroll down to voicemail. Hit Force Stop, then ok, scroll down and hit Clear Data and Clear. I just got off the phone with tech and this is exactly what I did and now my voicemail notification is back.

Reject/block calls

Hi all
I owned the G2 and G3 on both these devices you had the ability to reject calls by long pressing number and adding to reject list..
However I can not find or am unable to add nuisance calls to a reject list on G4..
Is this function gone or is there another way to do it?.
Cheers.

Hit the dialer app, open the options menu and select call settings. There's an entry named call reject, where you can do this. It's far more complicated than on the G2, but it's there.

Not for Verizon

You can also try an app called Mr Number..Ive used for a couple of years to keep trck of blocked calls, etc

You can still access the reject call screen on Verizon through a shortcut maker, like quick shortcut it, or activity shortcuts on home screens other than lg.
