The hd2 does no longer show that a redirected call is coming in, as some people may have been used to see on other devices. You only see the number of the person who initiated the call.
Let's say phone "b" will be redirected to "c".
A caller "a" will call "b" and of course end up at "c".
The hd2 is phone "c" which isn't able to see that the call isn't a direct call.
Since even older mobile phones show a redirected call symbol I presume that the hd2 is hiding some information.
IS there a way to display enhanced caller id informations?
Maybe there is a way to show these details by registry settings or by using a tool.
Showing the reroute adress as well in the phone, or at least the symbol would be a start. The ability to see who is calling should be kept of course.
Thanks for ideas an hopefully a solution to this.
Did anyone come up with a caller information add on for the HD2?
Is there a way to notice whether you receive a direct call or a re-routed call?
Hopefully someone knows an answer.
Same question from me. Any chance to identify redirected phone call on HTC dialer?

Hi,
I need to develope an application that basically replaces the caller ID screen that pops up when you have an incoming call and show some more information on the caller, then let the user answer or decline the call.
any help on where to look first (or maybe code snipets if i'm lucky) highly appreciated.
Cheers,
Shafa
I think you may have a hard time if it is truly a seperate application you wish to write. I have written a program to try to be used at the same time as cprog.exe and when that incoming call window comes up nothing I have tryed will let the user interact with any windows I create. You could stop that process but most users will not want to do this. I ended up having my program automatically determine if it wants to accept the incoming call and answer it itself. This was particularly anoying because my incoming call interest was set to data only and cprog dose not normally even register an incoming call that is purly data. But after I had initialized tapi with my settings cproc unexpectedly shared the same interest for incoming data calls.
Just as speculation - if your program was constantly running, when an incoming call is offering, you could enumerate the desktop windows using EnumWindows and its associated callback function to get the hwnd of the ballon that comes up. Then perhaps you could close the incoming call window or send it to the bottom of the z order and use your own to replace it. I do not know what effect this would have on cprog.
code related to tapi tends to be long so your not that lucky

Hi,
I want to develop the following app:
I have two mobiles with Windows. One for business and one private. When somebody calls on my business phone (which I leave at home) I want to divert them to the voicemail (maybe after one ring) so they can leave a message. At the same time I want this mobile to send a SMS to my private phone with the number of the caller (caller-id?). So I can phone them back after listening to the voicemail.
Can anybody direct me in the right direction to develop this? Is it possible to develop this?
If you have VStudio with WM5 SDK, I think it won't be difficult (I think. I dont have WM5 SDK, as I'm cheapo and using evc). There is this thing call.. State and Notification Broker thing that WM5 has which check on the state of the phone and do something about it. Probably a good place to start.
a software MagiCall ..has such feature..not sure if its sms includes the callers number..but custom sms can be set when incoming call comes..
google for MagiCall
Hi @ all,
I have a question or request. First let me explaine the situation.
I use justVoip.com for calling German Cells cheaper and the USA for free. I call justVoips Landline for free (because I have a landline-flat) and they forward the call to the desired number. I used to just save their number before the contacts number seperatet by a "P" (pause): 08912345P0172123456
When receiving calls my Motorola would still recognize the Call-id, also with the voip number in front of it. But my X1 now doesnt recognize calls with their number inserted...
So my question is... either is there a way to have two seperate phone books running parallel or is there maybe a software that always asks if the preselection should be added when making a call??
Or a nother solution I didnt think of yet..
Hope this wasn't to complicated and you kinda now what i mean...
thanks..
Danny
On my Nokia N95 it would say the name of the person calling me. Can you do this on the X1 ?
do you mean like displaying the name of the person, even if their not saved in your contact list? like how the caller id does on a home phone?

No, the phone would speak out the name of the person calling. So if Joe Blogs called my on my N95 I would hear 'ring, ring, Joe Blogs, ring ring, Joe Blogs...........'
well...back on my blackjack II, i remember when i upgraded from wm 6.0 to 6.1, there was a new program up there called "Voice Command" that allowed you to do this. So I'm guessing it'd still work on the X1 since its an official microsoft program. So just try googling "Windows Voice Command"
Yes, get "Microsoft Voice Commad" and check the settings. By default it should be set to bluetooth only, but you can change it so it reads the name even without the bluetooth. I like it a lot with bluetooth, cause you can set it to also read your text to you
Yeah, but I can't find an answer if the BT on the X1a and MSVC has the same issue as on the Touch Pro, where if you have it say the name of the incoming caller, it won't. You get a corruption sound. Normally that a bell sound. So normally you get "<your ringtone> and in the background of the ringtone, you hear "you got a call from 888-8888"" Or instead of the phone#, you hear the name if its in your address book.
When its broken, you hear your ringtone and in the background a small beep"
here is the link: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/about-voice-command.mspx
give it a try and let us know.
even i like that feature on nokia phones
My Voice Command doesn't work properly on incoming calls either. It doesn't say the name of the caller, or even the telephone number. I have seen it work perfectly on an Omnia. Odd that it doesn't work on the X1!

i am in fact looking for this?
my previous phone use to display name of the callers, even if they werent stored in my contacts
how can i get this to work on my x1?
much apperciated
You need MS Voice Command or something similar for X1 to talk.
The current version of MS Voice Command combined with the current WM6.1 build does not announce Caller ID even though the feature is there. Reasons...I don't know. All of the other voice funtionality works great though, including reading of SMS and MMS messages among other things.
caller anouncement doesnt work on the x1 and i dont think anyones has come up with a solution to it yet.
Same
It attenuates my rintone every so often as if it's going to say the name but it never does.
Certain versions of WM don't support caller announcement. I think it is explained on the MS website for Voice Command.
I have been getting a ton of spam, fraud, robo calls, and I'm sick of it. In a last ditch effort I may have to change my phone number. I've been looking for a call blocker that will answer and hangup on calls; not go to voicemail. I am on Android 6.0.1 I've tried a whole bunch of phone call blockers and none of them will answer and hangup the calls, they just go to voicemail after 1 ring. I was looking around and tried Extreme Call Blocker because it has that feature and was highly rated but that dose't even work.
Any help would be appreciated. :good:
Thanks in advance.
In the same boat with a Galaxy S7 on Android 6.0.1. Have also tried everything.

Instead of blocking, forward the calls to a number that does not exist. They will get the disconnected error message and you won't get a voicemail. Another option is create a Google Voice number, forward these calls to it and block the calls on the GV number so callers get the "Number is disconnected..." message.

How would you forward only specific numbers? The built in forwarding feature only allows all calls to be forwarded under specific conditions (busy, no answer etc) and I can't find an app that does only specific numbers either.

I thought Verizon allowed you to do "selective" call forwarding by number but I can only find it now referenced for Fios or residential service. I guess the way I'd do it then would be to setup a Google Voice account and set my carrier to use Google Voice for my voicemail. Then I would use the Android contact settings to set those callers I didn't like to go straight to voicemail. Then in my GV setting I would block those callers and they get the disconnected message and don't get to leave a msg.
Are there any Nougat compatible apps?

Does anyone know of numbers that are not in service or how to find them so we can forward the calls to that number?

What app would let you accomplish this without making your phone useless? Selectively doing this forwarding.

Call Control has the "answer and hang up" feature.

Old thread, but searchers may find it relevant until a carrier-wide solution gets implemented. At the end of the day, an effective solution must include a black-list database that is constributed to by thousands of people and is checked against for every call that hits the phone. My rationale is that it is simply too cumbersome and time consuming to enter individual bad-actor numbers, given the ease with which both the incoming call number and text line are synthesized by the sophisticated call center dialers these days.
I use "Should I Answer," available on Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mistergroup.muzutozvednout . It takes awhile to set up correctly with correct permissions, etc. and another while to learn to use. But it works very well if set up correctly. You can blacklist a bad-actor number "privately" or "publicly." A publicly blacklisted number goes to the community database. You can also set a threshold for the number of times that incoming numbers have been reported to the public database before your phone automatically "picks up and hangs up" when a public database number comes in on your phone. So, in essence you are able to set the "false positive" threshold for such numbers.
Best,
Bruce

I looked at Should I Answer, but it doesn't meet my needs. It does the wildcard thing properly, but does not do the answer-and-hang-up thing properly. At least, not on my phone. Instead, rejected calls go to voicemail, and the entire objective of the exercise is not to have to deal with voicemails from crooks.
If there's a blocker which can do both wildcard matching and answer-and-hang-up, I'll be right there in a flash.

Right; I had to fool with it quite a bit on Samsung Galaxy S5 on Android 6.0.1 to get it to "pick up and hang up." I had to read quite a bit in the help on the app and maybe even on the website. But it was seriously worthwhile. Now I very rarely get a bad call and never see bad calls on voicemail. But if you've done all of that, maybe it just won't work on your phone.
