Agreed on all your points except for the call blocker app. I paid once and didn't fall for the scam to pay a monthly fee.
I did need to root my Android phone but now my phone only rings in the caller is in my address book.
All other calls go to voice mail and my phone doesn't ring. I do accept texts from numbers not in my address book.
I block Anonymous / Unknown / Calls with letters in their phone number. Those parasites get a disconnected message if they call and those texts are blocked.
And a feature I don't use is wildcards.
The information is out their to make your phone number yours again. I've had the same mobile number since 2002.
Now I believe all the features this app does should be done by the operating system whether it's Apple or Android. Only accepting calls if someone is in your address book was a feature on my old Motorola RAZR ten years ago.
Im in the same boat as you. I think its a crockload of crappola that nobody is doing anything! They would rather bust somebody for being in possesion of a marijuana cigarette than go after these people! I feel your pain!
I keep these $#@! on the line as long as possible I make up the first 12 credit card #'s then tell them I am not giving you the last 4 numbers. I sure wish the phone and government would stop these thieves!
Got a call from Romania. Yes, it actually said Romania on the caller ID. The voicemail was from 4013439764, which is a Rhode Island number. Nothing on the voicemail.
