Re: On an lg ally, how do i block restricted callers?
As far as I know the only was to block callers is to have your service provider do it for you. Otherwise just check the caller ID before you answer it.

There is no option on this phone to restrict the caller ID.
If the number is XXXXXX up as 'Restricted' then it can only happen if you dial *67 at the beginning of the number you want to call to block you caller ID information. Or, you can also call Verizon and have caller ID blocked for every number.
If this is happening for every number, then you will need to call Verizon and have them deactivate the caller ID restriction.
The 6500c does not support conditional call forwarding (CCF) which is useful if your carrier does not provide blocking services. I have owned several nokia, a samsung, two LG, and currently have a blackberry 9330. If unwanted calls are a serious problem, consider upgradeing to a mobile phone that supports CCF. Conditional call forwarding can be used to forward any unwanted phone number includeing calls from unlisted, unknown or restricted callers. Depending on where you live, the call can be instantly forwarded to a service, such as trapcall.com, that unmasks the caller in addtion to providing the standard message "This number is no longer in service" for example.
There are 2 places this can be set, and with AT&T, it tends to be set at the network level. Meaning to turn it off, you have to call them and request that they disable caller ID block on outgoing calls.
maybe check on the ringer type for restricted numbers- you can change ringers by all calls, restricted calls, and caller id numbers. your incoming restricted numbers is probably set at none or silent
With this model of phone you cannot block calls from a particular number but you can restrict incoming calls that are not listed your address book. So effectively you can block a caller but you will be blocking all callers that are not in your address book. Having said that, there are other phone models in the market that can block a particular caller by listing the number in a black list.
There are a few services that make it easy to find the real number of a blocked or restricted caller. They do cost money (some as low as $5.00 per month to unmask numbers) to use with your cellphone.
You can even get the name and address of a blocked caller. Check into caller id unblocking services. Hopefully that will help you out.
