Is this for all calls or just individual contacts?
For contacts you get the option whilst in the contacts profile. Click the dots (options) button and select " All calls to voicemail"

just individual calls, cuz i get some random advertisement number every single day!
so i can actually save that number to a contact and select all calls to voicemail and it will work?

If you long press a contact it should give you an option to sent the call directly to voicemail.

Yes - once saved open the new contact use the option (dots) in the top right and select "all calls to voicemail" that will be activated for that specific contact.

How to delete individual calls?

Is there anyway to delete individual calls from the call log? I can't seem to figure it out.
Any help would be appreciated.

Open the call log and select the one that you want to remove. Then click the menu button on the top right corner. Click remove from call log.

Cool, that did the trick. But the number still shows up in 'frequently contacted' lol.

Put your mistress's number in one of your other benign contacts (guy friend) as a secondary number. Problem solved..

Calls from wife go straight to voicemail

It seems like I'm getting calls from everyone except from my wife.
I am on a rooted/CM7.1.0/Droid Incredible and she is on a stock Incredible. We are both on the same Verizon plan.
When she calls, it rings 3 times for her and then to Voice mail. It never rings on my phone. I have checked
I have and use Google voice for voice mail but she is calling my Verizon number.
The "Send calls directly to voicemail" box wasn't checked. I have deleted her contact in my phone and my contact in her phone and it still goes straight to voice mail. I can call her and other people can call me.
Any ideas?

I wish calls from my wife went straight to VM.

Dude, you would get so much money on ebay for that phone.

The only thing i could think of is mabey google voice thinks your wifes number is spam. If you go to google.com/voice and hit the gear icon on the top right, select settings and then the calls tab. Uncheck global spam filtering save the change and then see if that works.

that was unchecked

Update:
Formatted everything and "upgraded" to Pons CM7.2 Incredible builds (12192011).
All is working great.

Ha ha, you probably got hacked... Lol
Edit:
To clarify things, guys, he stated that he 'only uses google voice for voicemail'...
This means she is calling his Verizon phone number first... Which, he has something called 'conditional call forwarding' setup... So, even if google voice were set to block her, as spam, it would still have to dial his handset first... And actually ring(or be ignored).
To my knowledge, i haven't seen a way inside of Android to block callers...
Which is why i jokingly say, you got haxxed...
I bet if you flashed a clean install of cm7 again, it would work fine

If you long press the end call button while in a call, you are given the option to put that number on a black list. You could have done that without realizing

Nice, good catch..
That sounds like the most reasonable explanation so far

Thanks for pointing that out. My 1-year-old son might be the culprit.
Formatted everything so not sure, but good to know for the future.

Fear of apple has made Samsung remove the Google search function that can search on contacts on the phone. However you can reinstall it yourself. Do a search for. 'universal Google search.'
The universal Google Voice can call and text as well as do lots of other things.
If you mean the Samsung S-Voice it can dial and text with the universal goggle search.
Also you install Google Now but again it can't directly text or call but can bring up the contact with the right app.

I have to correct myself on my last post. Google Now can do mail, phone calls and texts. I was using the wrong word or phrase. I would say text so-and-so and it would give me a list of the person's contact numbers. text or send text both work the same. It can invoke the gmail program simarly.
Saying dial or call so-and so work number makes it call out. You can also state a numeric number.
It seems to not have some rather short attention span for body of the messages and unless you can get it in to the initial search it doesn't ask you what you want to send, which S-Voice does.

To get Google voice to work you must first download it from the play store. Then run it. It will tell you that it can't change your forward numbers. The go on your browser and goto the Google voice website (make sure you hit menu and request desktop site). On the site look for settings. (Somewhere in the top right. Then choose to set up your phone. Choose your carrier and it will give you a number to call. That number will change your forwarding numbers for you. Then in the voice app change settings to show voicemail in call log.

[Q] Block Numbers?

Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone knew how to block numbers? I received a call today from a telemarketer and after I tried blocking it but couldn't find the option. I tried long holding the number and tapping the contact but didn't see the option. Thanks!

You can do this by:
- Hit call button from home screen
- Select 3 dots in top right and go to "call settings"
- Under Incoming Call, select "call reject"
- Select "Reject calls from"
- Click + and then call logs

I do not have a "Call Reject" option in that settings page. I have the Verizon G4.

Ouch. It is second item under "Incoming Call" section for me. I'm using the T-mobile G4.

Attached pic are my only option on Verizon...They can seriously suck it...

I do it through the Messenger (google's) application whenever I get an unwanted SMS.
Good thing is it carries over with your Google account. Unfortunately you cannot just type a number and block it.

Try something from the app store

Yep. This is something else Verizon stripped.

If that doesn't work. You can log into your Verizon account and block the number from there. However, this method only allows for a 90 day block.
This is the route that I took. Hopefully a future update will re-enable this feature on the Verizon phones, but that is probably wishful thinking..

You can still launch the reject call activity under the phone app on the Verizon model, just have to use a home screen that can set activity shortcuts, or an app like quick shortcut maker (the app includes a search function that makes it easy to find)

I tried this with no luck, you can add numbers to the block list but calls still come through.

What do you search for and what is the package name?

It's under the call app, but if you just search for reject, you'll find the reject call activity.

I use app "whoscall"
