Restricting Calls

You can block all or certain categories of incoming and outgoing calls. If you have

received a PIN2 code from your service provider, you can also use a list of Fixed Dialing

Numbers (FDNs) to restrict outgoing calls. If your subscription includes a voicemail

service, you can send all incoming calls from a specific contact directly to voicemail. If

you want to block a certain number, you can go to Google Play™ and download

applications that support this function.

FDN is not supported by all network operators. Contact your network operator to verify if your

SIM card or network service supports this feature.
