SOURCE: need to block numbers from calling me

Unfortunately, there is no way to block numbers from calling you. You can change your number or simply don't answer. Sorry! I wish they would make a way!

If there is a way to make it where only people in your contacts can call you it would be under main> settings> security> restriction, but I doubt it.

SOURCE: I want to block unwanted

to block a particular mobile number, if the contact is saved in your phonebook, do these.
1. press menu,
2. select settings
3. select application settings
4. select call
5. select all calls
6. select auto reject
7. scroll down and select reject list and add number.
8. select search and it will give an option
9. select from two options, call log and phonebook
10 select phonebook (this is because the numbers were saved in your phonebook)
11, once set and configured, check and enable auto activation
12. click save and exit the settings.

if the contacts is not on your phonebook.
follow the steps 1-9 but step 10 will be your call log not the phone book.
10. select call log
11. it will give you the phone numbers of all the person who contacted you, including those who sent you a message,
12. at the right upper corner you will see all, filter it through received message and it will give you those who sent you messages.
13. select from the contacts or numbers from the list.
14, select and enable auto activation
15, select save and exit the menu

I want to block a number

If the number is already in your call history (either as dialled or received. Not as message history), then just select 'Add to reject list' at the bottom of the screen and then select the number you wish to block. If its not in call history, just dial the number and cut the call. Then follow the above steps.

How can i block unwanted calls on my nokia 3110 cell phone,the calls are from a vodafone number

Hi, on the phone you have it is not possible to block any number from calling, it just doesnt have the memory to have that kind of software, the only other option you may have is to call your service provider and ask them if they can direct a call from a certain number direct to your voicemail or see if they can block the number from their end.

on newer phones it is possible to block any number you like but on your phone its just not possible.

sorry i couldnt be of more help, but the phone is no capable of doing what you want, a newer phone would, but try calling your service provider and tell them you keep getting nuisance calls off a certain number and then see if they will block the call from their end

I would like to block a mobile phone number so I dont receive any calls or text messages. can you advise how to do this I have a samsung mobile phone

I think there is no option in your phone for it but If you have the cell phone number, call your cell service provider and tell them the number you want to block. If its an unknown number, there is no real way to block it.
