Is it possible to block a caller from calling you?

[DeanoBeano]

Just wondered if there was a facility on my 8900 to do this. Any help appreciated

Call Firewall

So far it seems to be doing what I want.

Sorry for the goofy link. I don't have enough posts to give you the info you need. That seems stupid.

just make a contact with there number and change the custom ring tone to "MUTE." works like a charm.

Yeah i select the contact select 'add custom ring tone' but i cannot find mute anywhere. There are two file options - Music and Preloaded ringtones but MUTE does not seem to be in either

Weird programming bug.

Put any ringtone in to get started. Then after you've made the address book listing, go to that listing and scroll down to the bottom where the ring tone is specified and you'll be able to change it to mute.

Another option is to set that number to your all-time favorite song and just let it play and play everytime the pest calls. You'll have no intention of answering the call so you get to hear your favorite song play and play all day.

The best way to block someone for good is to use an app like callblocker plus YouMail (I use Cerberus Call Filter, it was 4.99)...apps like these have black/whitelists, and the blocked numbers don't ring on your phone and go straight to VM.

If you use YouMail, you can set it up online so that the blocked number will be "ditched" when they go to your VM.

I use both a call filter and ditchmail on YouMail...best way to NOT get bothered with a call AND insure that they don't fill up your VM box.

Callsblocker is a great free app. Doesn't eliminate the call like a lot of good ones do but it does send to voicemail and kill it

you can set the firewall to only contacts but that would cause problems otherwise to any other calls not in your address book.. my only info sorry
