nottingq: This app worked great with my Treo 600. However, there a numerous bugs with the Treo 650. The two that don't seem to work for me are that it doesn't filter phone calls from categories or blocked calls; and doesn't filter SMS messages. I hope they are able put out a new release b/c it was an excellent app for the Treo 600.
dronj131: I agree with djaries. WTF! ,
it didn't work with 'answer hang up'.. Not work the effort.
haephaestus: Crashware with my Treo650. Not only this, but it kills access to my SD card. On installation, it went into a reset loop. Once out of the reset loop, I discovered that once the rules were enabled and a soft reset is performed, I could no longer access the SD card. Only after disabling the rules followed by another soft reset could I access the SD card. Will either wait for an updated version or something better.
washingtonj3: I use Ringo Pro to manage my ringtones. I wish there was a basic version of this software that just allowed the blocking of certain calls. When I installed this software, my 650 kept resetting. When I received calls, the phone would ring but I could not answer the call. Just wait on this if you can.
mysticalyute: It works great, but theres one glitch with my cingular 1.17 treo, if i press home button to exit the App it resets, if i press phone button it exists ok...otherwise its a nice app
leoninter: Now this is real business software. It has added greatly in my GTD setup. A definite must have. On the Treo600, I've had no problems at all.
djaries: Very Very Crappy... very limited compared to callshield. answer hang up didn't work. Caller could hear what I was doing...WTF!! Started using callshiled which isn't even made for the 650 and it works great so far. Callshield got
bad reviews as well but I beleive it's other people's applications conflicting with something.
kbilbrey: No Problems. I use it with Simple Profiles Manager and the combo is the most exciting thing I use on my Treo 650.
It flawlessly manages my calls throughout the day, night, late night, weekend, and hockey games. I take notes after calls with clients and add follow-ups if necessary. Flawlessly. I have 1700 contacts in my device and it NEVER fails to identify them correctly and reing (or not) appropriately.
In the past versions when I did have issues, I got a prompt response and they worked with me to a solution. They were even very receptive to suggestions for future releases.
I am shocked at the number of reports of crashes here. I have never used a more reliable piece of software nor dealt with a more responsive support team.
I rate it 9 instead of 10 only because I want the addition of the sms lock to use my teallock to provide more protection than the standard palm lock.
There was a dark period between the time I updgraded from the Treo 600 to the 650 when it would not work with the new model. Happy days are here again.
Try the software. Regardless of what some have said in the ratings it is a very stable and unique program that will add to your Treo's usefulness.
Mareka: I agree - very good idea BUT: after installed (Hotsync) and first opening - soft reset. Afer first ending this application, second soft reset. After maked settings - reset plus deleting saved preferences :-(
wood6994: very buggy. It blocks calls that aren't even supposed to be blocked. One day I didn't receive any calls for hours. Come to find out that CallFilter had been hanging up on all my incoming calls. I only had two active filters and neither of them were related to the calls that the software chose to block.

Version History
V1.3.1 12/19/2006
- Disabled - Removed Velocityplayer for now. PocketTunes V3.07 or greater is the recommended mp3 player.
- Fix - Fixed bug that prevented answering on phone calls if the Stop Return Key from Answering is activated
- Feature - Added ability to lock Treo based on an incoming SMS message
- Fix - Rules have been updated to allow international phone calls to be filtered properly
- Fix - Modified LED control logic to work in unison with other apps that control the LED better
- Known Issue - Still adding international support for SMS messages
- Feature - Added ability to send SMS autoreply message if a phone call is missed
- Feature - Added ability to send SMS autoreply message if a phone call is ignored
- Known Issue - if you are on a phone call, and ignore/miss a call, no sms message is sent. This will be resolved shortly
- Fix - Fixed issue that prevented custom ring screens form showing up till AFTER the call
- Fix - Closed hole in CallFilter security, that would allow user access from the Attn Mgr screen
- Fix - Made additional changes to improve stability on Treo 650
- Enhancement - Restores playlist in PocketTunes V3.07 and greater
- IMPORTANT NOTE: Some programs are adding a feature such as "Prevent/Suppress Alarms during Phone Call". Examples of programs adding this feature is VolumeCare/ProfileCare/Butler, and perhaps others. If this feature is enabled in those programs, it will PREVENT CallFilter from properly showing ringscreens, pickingup/hangup, and other cool functions. These programs are using a function that was undocumented called AlmEnableNotifications, which Palm had initially indicated was for system use only. This function prevents any background processing from occurring during a phone call, and CallFilter does a LOT of background processing to make many of the features possible.
v1.3 (Build: Nov 22 2005)
- Temporarily disabled VelocityPlayer

HOW CALLFILTER CAN HELP YOU MANAGE YOUR PHONE
| DEFINE RULES
CallFilter lets you define a set of rules to help you manage your
phone. Similar to how a firewall is configured, CallFilter lets
you indicate who can call and when. In addition, it will let you
take direct actions based on the caller, such as: Play a MP3 Ringtone,
Send To VoiceMail, Ignore, or Hangup on the Caller.
You can also create rules for SMS messages also, so you can filter out
junk message, suppress SMS popups, automatically reply, or simply play
a special sound when an important SMS arrives.

'Business' calls your phone. The possibilities are
endless.

Excellent application!!. I've been using it for just a couple of days and already
decided to pay the $30 registration. It is a true calling spam software.

by Len Greenberg
Excellent software and highly recomended. It is like a spam filter for the
phone. Very stable and works like a charm. Well worth the money for the piece
of mind it provides.

Should be more stars!!
First (and only) application to play MP3 ringtones on my Treo 600 and as such
worth every penny as I can now hear the phone even in busy train stations

by T. Rosenfeld
This is "must have" software for the Treo 600. Aside from providing badly needed
functionality, it's robust, stable, handles international and local calls perfectly,
and hasn't fallen into the traps some of the competing products have fallen
into of playing 1 second of ringtone before dismissing calls etc. I've tried
other apps in this category and have been deeply frustrated with all but this
one. Great work!!!
