pgraph I have "enabled" it successfully in a dedicated profile.

What have you enabled, and in what way is it successful, is you are not able to get calls to go to the Google Dialer app?

For the record, I have been using Google's phone app as default without issue simply by setting it at Settings > Apps > Default apps > Phone app

      hemlockiv Have you set it in the main profile or in a user profile?

      In my case, the main profile uses the stock phone app and the user profile has Google phone app installed, set as default and is still not able to receive calls via the Google phone app :-/

          pgraph Oh, I use Google phone app in main profile, since it doesn't require a Google acct to use

            @hemlockiv Ahh, thats a good one! Just switched from Samsung to GraphenOS on Pixel8a and have been missing call screening. So lets see, if it works by just using the Google Phone app, didn't had this in mind :-)

            pgraph Any update? Did you ever get it working?

              I used to use Truecaller. For numbers that were unrecognised, there were options to kill the call, send it to voicemail, play a message, or let it "ring" but not bother you. It would also try to find a company name associated with that number if you allowed net connection, so that if you didn't know the number as it might be an alternative of theirs, then you could see it was "Bloggs Builders" etc, and choose one of the previous options for it

                PaulDavis too late to edit.
                Another feature is that you can block by prefix sequence, so you could block by country, state, city, company (where they have many numbers in a sequence), block mobiles by their network code, or if you really want, by the individual number. You could even block using words from their name, just in case a branch from a different town calls you.
                But if your doctors etc are withholding their number, then hound them to get an outgoing only number for the switchboard

                  I wanted to like the Yet Another Call Blocker, however it seems it is not developed anymore. It is effective however in Spam identification.
                  As an alternative I tried SpamBlocker
                  If you manage to attach some good database to it, then it works pretty well.
                  If you want to give it a try, then enable "Query API" function and add something from the github wiki page
                  I did try the database for numbers from Poland, and it works like a charm. If only those databases were added to the app by default, then it would be perfect.

                    ConflagratedK9 it's toothless and incredibly ineffective.

                    The concept is laughable. The only people who will respect it are legit businesses who don't want you to hate them. India and China don't give a crap about do not call lists.

                      DamianS555 Thanks for the recommendation! The online database you set up is the exact same that is used in YACB, so the two solutions are going to be equally effective in practice. And those 4 years of extra security patches in SpamBlocker might well be worth the additional work to set it up. :)
