Android :: Selective Texting App?
Sep 18, 2010
I'm running froyo (frf91) on a rooted N1 and am looking for an app that restricts who I can text when I'm drunk or drinking. I've done a fruitless search of the Market to no luck. If possible the specifics I'm looking for would be something like this:
Have a set list of people who I can text when the app is active.
Not allow other texts to people not on the list.
And I know this last one is a long shot, but a randomly generated password to take the app off that gets sent to my e-mail at a certain time.
Does anyone know of an app like this or one that sounds familiar?

I am looking for a way to send certain callers to another number- not my Tmobile voicemail (I'm using an ADP1/Dream) I'm hoping to change jobs soon, and I don't want all the folks that call me at my current job bombarding me with questions at the new one. I want to be able to set up my phone so that pre-selected calls get forwarded to my current office, instead of my Tmobile voicemail. The only option I can find on my phone is to forward a specific caller to my Tmobile voicemail. (This is my personal phone, that I've given my number out to business contacts over the years)

Is it possible on this or an Android to have customizable 'profiles', like Nokia phones have? So that say in a meeting, only certain numbers would ring and messages could be on silent etc? Have been sticking to Nokia only for this function but would love to shift to Android if I can do this. Eg: Nights, I want my hospital number to ring but no other number. In Nokia, I can set a group of numbers by name nad only that group will ring in a given profile.I know that a lot of Nokia users stick to Nokia for this feature.Search showed a lot of profile managers, but none that had this 'selective number' ring only stuff.

Is there a way to make it so that only certain contacts will sync? Or does the phone only send/backup the contacts on my phone to google?

I want to mute sound originated from certain apps (not from whole system). How can I do this? I want to listen to only my music player while playing a game having no sound control. I am rooted...

I understand that the sync switch in the power control widget has effect only on google services (email, calendar, tasks, browser, play books, etc.) while it has no effect on facebook/twitter/whatsapp push notifications: for the latter I need to enable/disable inside the apps. Correct?
If that's so, I am looking for an tasker-like app that allows me the following:
every time I push a dedicated icon on the homescreen or I am connected to the home wifi, disable google sync, disable facebook/twitter push notifications and enable whatsapp notifications
Would that be possible? I understand that tasker (and other similar apps) cannot do the facebook/twitter/whatsapp part. correct?

I have an SGS2 running ICS and have setup my android's SIP client (internet calling) in phone > settings > internet call settings ("Accounts" and "Use internet calling", at the bottom).
I call many international numbers through sip. If I set the option "Use internet calling" to "Ask for every call", then every time I dial a number it asks whether to use "Mobile phone call" or "Internet call". If I choose the latter, then the call is made through my sip provider saving me lots of money.
It would be really useful if there was an app that would intercept calls to certain numbers I configure and change to internet call mode on the fly. The "prefixer" app does something close with prefixing/suffixing numbers.
Alternatively, I would also be happy with a widget that allows me to switch that phone option between "Ask for every call" and "Only for Internet calls" when tapped, so I don't have to navigate through menus all the time. For a dev this shouldn't be that hard I presume since it would just alter an existing OS option.

Is there a way to selectively sync Facebook contacts to my phone? I have roughly 1000 Facebook "friends" but only 300 are really friends and family and the rest are mainly gaming friends for games like Mafia Wars, etc. and I don't want to sync those. I want the Facebook contacts who I personally know to show up when I use the contacts icon on the home screen. I would like to sync them but I'm afraid it will import the list and I would have to manually delete them.

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?

I have a question. What spy apps can someone put on their phone and then type in the number they want to spy on to get a copy of the text messages they send and receive? I ask because a friend of mine just called from their work number saying their baby daddy just sent her a text message, she sent to someone else followed by a text asking how long she has been talking to him. LOLL I'm not on that type of stuff but dang that is funny to me. She said he hasn't installed anything on her phone cause she has her phone pattern locked (however you can see the pattern when you look at her phone). But I was wonder does anyone know of a program you can put on and Evo phone that would allow you to do this.

I'm looking at getting a smart phone, but I have a couple questions about Android apps. Specifically, is there an app that lets me send texts via data? Verizon makes me buy a data plan, and if I want unlimited texting, its a different plan. So I end up paying for unlimited texting, AND data. If I can get away without spending the extra 20 a month and just using an app, I'd do that. Anyways, sorry if this question has been answered, I searched and didn't see anything.

I am a t-mobil customer and would love to get a G1. The only negative that I can see is that you can not text one handed from the touch screen. I would love to be able to text from the phone dial screen using intutive text. This would make one handed texting possible like on my Krazer. I love this feature. Having to open the keyboard is a complete bummer. Even an onscreen keyboard wouldn't be as good in my opinion for texting.

Is there a texting app like Google Voice that allows you to receive unlimited texts with your current phone number? I essentially want to use only a data plan for texting and do not want to change my number.

I just published a Hands-Free texting app called Shout. Just say a phrase like "Text Doug With I am On My Way Home" and Shout will search your contacts for matches, confirm "Sending 'I am on my way home' to 'Doug Hansknecht', correct?". Simply tap the Big Green Yes button and you're done.
There's a video demo here:

if anybody knows where to get some really nice icons for texting, using the camera etc. please point me in the right direction. Secondly, if I buy an unlocked N1 and send it to my girl who lives in the UK can she just get a pre-paid sim card and use it? I know the N1 supposedly coming to vodafone at the end of this month, but she doesn't want to be on a contact. She uses vodaphone pre-paid so would the unlocked US N1 work in the UK with a pre-paid vodafone sim card?

I am getting my first Android phone on monday, and I want to alleviate some of my bill with AT&T, so i was thinking of getting just the talk and 2GB of data a month. But I was wondering if anyone knew how the apps like Handscent send their text messages, and if they do. do you know how much data that takes up each time you send / receive a text? I want to make sure I won't go over my 2GB a month (screw them for not having unlimited data anymore)

I am new to texting and wanted to know if it is possible to setup a group text on the android? I am a coach of a soccer team and would like to send out a text message to each member of the team but only do it once rather than send each person one. As I mentioned before I do not use texting often so I am not sure if I can do this.

Looked around and saw some real expensive alternatives, but not really what I'm looking for anyway.
I just want something where I can drive using the phone's GPS, and not have it interrupted by any texts during the trip. Then, after I'm done driving, have the texts arrive on the phone.
I did a few searches and couldn't really find what I was looking for.

Blackberry messenger has the feature of letting the sender of the message to know if the receiver has READ the message or not. Is there a way to do this on an android? Any apps out there for this, or maybe you can do it in stock?

I have a weird one. If I send a text on my Motorola Cliq XT, within my preset Advance Task Killer timeout (3 minutes I believe) the phone disconnects from the network and then the SIM needs to be unlocked.
Is there an App that should be running that I need to Add to the Ignore list? It only happens after texting.
Firmware is Android Version 1.5
