Android :: *69 App Or Function / Way To Hide My Phone Number When Calling Out?

Jun 24, 2010

Is there a way to hide my phone number when calling out? I came over from BlackBerry, where there is simply an option to "hide" my phone number on outgoing calls... but I can't seem to do this with my Eris. Someone once suggested that I prefix my contacts with *69... but that seems to prevent caller id from working properly, which just trades one issue for another.

If possible, I would prefer to be selective with who I do this with (it's okay for personal contacts to see my number... but it's not okay for business contacts to see my number).

Android :: Function Determines That Contact Have A Phone Number?

Aug 7, 2010

I am trying to write a simple function that determines if a contact has a phone number or not. And am not having any luck what so ever. I have tried several ways of achieving this all found on line. At present I have the following:
public boolean has Phone() {Cursor phones = getContentResolver().query(ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTENT_URI,null,ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.Phone.CONTACT_ID + "=" + this.getId(),null); boolean has = false;if(phones.get Count() > 0) {has = true;}if(!phones.isClosed()){phones.close();}return has;}

Jelly Bean :: Any Way To Hide Own Phone Number?

Jan 16, 2014

I have quite a few chat apps(viber, whatsapp, chat on, tango) and I was wondering if there was a way to hide my number so I can't be found. My ex has a crazy girlfriend and no matter how many times I change my phone number she somehow gets my number and finds me in those apps but I don't have her number to be able to block her from finding me. Is there a way to hide myself?

Looking for a tip here.

How do you look up a local phone number (for calling) or address (for nav).

I have tried Yellow Pages, magnifying glass (search), and a few other apps but nothing is working great for finding the closest Pizza Hut for example (had a gift certificate). What do you use?

Android :: Calling The Stop() Function Of MediaPlayer

Aug 22, 2010

I see calling the stop function of MediaPlayer simply does nothing. The playback goes on.

I looked in the documentation and I found: "Stops playback after playback has been stopped or paused."

So, I tried to pause() it before stopping, but the MediaPlayer then pauses and resumes the playback. The only thing I can see is that the buffering stops. But the playback continues. Is this the expected behavior? Could the problem be related to the fact that I call the methods of the MediaPlayer object from different threads than the creator by synchronizing with Semaphores?

Android : Can I Stop Calling Wrong Number?

Aug 8, 2010

So ya, there's a phone in my HTC Hero. No surprise.

My problem is this:
I find that the easiest way to call a person is to go to the phone app and scroll through the call history displayed to find the person I wish to call. Once I see their name, I just press on it, and the call begins. Unfortunately, a friend I call often may use their house phone or cell phone when I only ever want to call their cell (Evo ). Often, the situation is that I previously talked to him on his house phone, and I'm calling him in the middle of the night (we're young; we don't sleep rational hours during the summer... or ever). Unfortunately for me, my call usually bugs his parents, and I get reprimanded...

Is there a setting that allows me to only call his cell, or do I just need to break this habit?

Android :: Want To Increase Font Size Of Calling Number

Apr 24, 2010

Full disclosure: There are millions of us semi-old guys who need reading glasses, but have perfect sight for everything else. We need the ability to use a larger font for the calling number. Its OK if the caller is in the contact list, but if it's not I really want to read the number quickly and decide yes/no on taking the call. Grabbing the readers takes time, and can be sketchy when driving.

HTC Incredible :: Google Voice Number Isn't Version Cell Phone Number

May 24, 2010

I've experienced two problems with Google Voice that are causing me to get charged minutes I wouldn't usually get charged. If I can't solve them, I'll have to go back to using my Verizon number. First, let me say that I'm using a new Google Voice number that isn't Verizon cell phone number or any other preexisting number. Second, my girlfriend is on my family plan, but she doesn't have GV yet. We're using the 700-minute plan, so we don't have a friends circle.

Problem 1: When I call my girlfriend's Verizon wireless phone using the GV on my Verizon phone, I get charged, and when she calls my GV number on my Verizon Wireless phone from her Verizon wireless phone, she gets charged. We don't cash in on our free in-network calling. I know, this should have been obvious, but it just never occurred to me until after I looked at the bill. I'd be able to work with that, though, and just select "Call without using Google Voice" or whatever when calling her if it weren't for the second problem. When people call my Google Voice number, I get charged when I don't answer. Usually, it's just a one-minute charge, but sometimes it's two or three minutes (don't know why). With anything less than an unlimited plan, minutes count. Not good.

General :: Forward Selective CID / Phone Number To External Number

Feb 15, 2012

Basically, i use my personal cell phone for work and personal use, i have multiple exchange accts that keep things sorted and seperated.

recently though i have been getting more and more business calls to my cell phone, during and outside of normal business hours.

what im looking for is an app that will take a selective group of contacts/phone numbers/CID strings and if it is a "business" call then forward it to a specific phone number (external number, the actual business line).

I have seen apps on the market and around that will forward calls to voicemail if they match certain filters, but i cant really seem to find an app that will forward to an external number. Any way I could accomplish this?

Android :: Phone With Call Recording Function

Sep 21, 2010

I would like to compile a list of Android phones that either

1) Comes with native call recording functionality.

2) Support call recording with 3rd party applications.

It would be great if you can lend a hand.Please note that phone/apps that require using speakerphone to record the calls do *not* count. That's a ugly hack I consider marginally useful.Please don't bring legality discussions here as well.Models that have this function built-in.Samsung Galaxy S (South Korean version SHW-M110S, with firmware DH09 or newer).Models that don't have this function built-in but can use 3rd party app to record calls in both ways without turning on speakerphone.HTC Magic (a.k.a. G2); requires root and custom kernel; with rViox

Android :: Phone In Standby Mode And Alarm Function

Jan 8, 2010

I've used blackberry's for a long time now and love one feature of it. The Standby mode that you can put the phone into and the only notification that will pull it out is the alarm clock. I've found a few alarms that will disable notifications, except calls. Well I don't want any notifications through the night. Only the alarm waking me up in the morning. Is anyone familiar with an existing app that puts the phone in a low energy sleep that only wakes it up for the alarm clock?
