block a number

That's too bad.

The only thing I can suggest is that you assign this person's phone number a silent ringtone. Then when they call you won't hear the phone ringing.

I've posted a download link to a silent ringtone in this blog article, if you're interested in using it. Their call will still go to voicemail, but from my testing of the blocking feature that I get through the Call+SMS function on the phone, blocked numbers
just don't ring on the phone, they go directly to voicemail, so not much difference really.

I actually take blocking calls a step further, though. I don't use the voicemail service that comes through my cell service. Instead I use a free voicemail service called YouMail (and there's a windows phone app that interfaces to YouMail, called MagikMail,
which gives me pretty good access & control over my voicemail and voicemail messages). With YouMail, I can set it up for specific phone numbers so that when the number goes to that voicemail service, it will give them a "phone number is disconnected" tone
& message. That has worked pretty well for me.

I've written a little about
YouMail & the MagikMail app in this blog article.

 

PC Build Steps

Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval

• Install system in case
  • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
• Turn on PC
• setup HDD
• run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
  • run realtemp at the same time

• While in Prime95 test
  • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
  • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
  • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!

What do you guys think??
