Phone Number blacklist? - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Anybody know a way to blacklist phone numbers in the stock OP3 phone app?
Miss this and granular DND control.

Good question. I couldn't find an option either.
I could block senders for sms msgs though.

I want to say you can get Sprint to add them to a blacklist.
On another note... You got a girlfriend and a wife?!

you can do it yourself on the sprint website
Block or restrict text messaging services:
Sign in to My Sprint with valid username and password at www.sprint.com.
Click the My Preferences tab.
Under Limits and Permissions, click Block texts.
Click on the phone or device to restrict text messages.
Choose from the following options to block or restrict texts:
Do not block any text messages
Block all text messages inbound and outbound
Block all inbound text messages
Block all outbound text messages
Block only these numbers for inbound and outbound text messages
Allow only these numbers for inbound and outbound text messages
not understanding your question fully...do you want to block calls and texts...or hide calls and texts?...Go SMS Pro has a private box with password for texts
I have found no way of doing this on stock or rooted/modded app.. but the best alternative will be to download chomp sms... It's free and she would need to go through the settings just to find it which will be to much for her/them...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415412 Check this app out. It blocks anything.
actually there is a way to do it. ill explain how i did it. im sure there are alternative ways "better,faster" but this is the one i know. i downloaded launcher pro just to do it and then uninstalled launcher pro after i was done. open launcher pro amd create a shortcut on the home screen. scroll down to mms setup or provisioning, i cant remember for sure. that will open to a sub category and when u see the blacklist option pick that as your shortcut. now just launch it from your new shortcut and choose what #s u want to blacklist. this has worked for me since i got my e4gt. good luck, veritasaequita

Send calls to voicemail
On the Evo you used to be able to select a contact and choose to automatically send calls to voicemail when that person called. That was good for bill collectors so I could just send it voicemail without it even ringing. Does anybody know how to do that with this phone?
get hide it pro...
Works wonders ...its in the market..you can hide SMS ...all calls from blacklisted contact have incoming calls go straight to VM and it has a dope interface that no one but you knows how to access

Settings to disable SMS/MMS

What settings can be used to disable sms/mms on a phone? What configuration can be changed or edited to not receive this? I have cdma / qpst or whatever is needed available to me
you want to receive no text messages? what are you using your phone for? the only way i know of to actually not receive them is to call sprint and have them disable yhour IP, but then you wont have any 3G connectivity. you could always just go into your settings and disable all notifications for sms apps.
If you don't want to receive SMS/mms what so ever, without any hacking, simply login into your account at the sprint website. Under my preferences, you can block data, block SMS/mms, or even block certain numbers, or voice altogether.
These settings exist for parents and punish their kids. Haha.

I dont want to turn it off via Sprint or just disable notifications. I am wanting to know if there is a setting in the config ##data# or similar that can be changed or edited to either not get the text or to make it so it doesnt come through on the device.
Any thoughts?
Miui has this.
You can whitelist or blacklist any number. You can choose to ignore the message, or simply block it from being received. You can also block messages from strangers with key words... Its very thorough, and available natively through miui.

Email/SMS Alert for a specific Contact App?

Here's the deal, I have a Viper Smartstart app on my phone. Everything works well, but I wanted to specify
a specific ringtone for my alarm alerts on my phone. The problem is that there is no specific telephone number that the sms is coming from. Rather than a number it says [email protected] in the number field. Because of this, the alert sounds are the same as all my other sms that come through. I wanted to have a siren sound for the smartstart.
I tried to save the contact and assign the alert but it didnt work. Any suggestions for settings or apps?

[Q] Need Help finding a good app

Hello guys..
Need help, its important.
I need a call/sms blocker app which successfully blocks calls/sms without any notification. Just like in the old samsung phones which had a blacklist and blocked call without notifying users that a call has been blocked. I tried the NQ call blocker app, It works good but leaves a notification about the blocked call in the log and fastlane.
Can u please help me with this either by stopping the notification or name me an app that does it without notification.
I use a Nokia X dual SIM.

"Call Control - Call Blocker" is a call/sms blocker I use and often recommend. It works really well. Simply click the "Settings" tab and you can disable all notifications, including icon, and blocked sms/calls. A community blacklist has also been implemented to help eliminate calls from known telemarketers etc. View here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flexaspect.android.everycallcontrol
Note: This app includes a log of all blocked calls. However, if you disable the notifications, you won't ever see this.
Also another great call/sms blocker is "Calls Blacklist - Call Blocker". View here - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vladlee.easyblacklist
Thanks
I tried the Calls Blacklist - Call Blocker, it didn't work. It allowed the blacklisted number, but will try the Call Control. If it doesn't work I'll get back to this thread.
Thanks for the help.

Message Block and DND

Theres no option for blocking messages without numbers that have company names only. Need to be able to block messages by keywords.
Do not Disturb exceptions only have All / Contact's / Favorite Contacts/ None but there is no options for allowing individual numbers or a whitelist. I dont want favorites to contact me. I just want two emergency contacts ONLY.
Samsung need to implement the features like Huawei EMUI9+ have already.
