Killswitch for tablets and phones


Fahrbot Mobile presents Killswitch, a utility made specifically for devices with cases.


What does Killswitch do?

The app uses a combination of sensors to control the sleep state and screen lock of any device.

At the moment, it uses the proximity sensor, light sensor and accelerometer.

Killswitch has the added advantage of removing your lockscreen via two different methods if you so wish. If you have a case, it really isnt necessary and can be annoying.


Why use Killswitch?

Killswitch will save you battery - putting your device to sleep is as intuitive as shutting your case or turning your phone face down.

All this will use no more power than any Android device does on default settings, as all of the pertinent sensors are already on all the time.

And, of course, Killswitch will show all your ipad and iphone loving mates why android is just that much more awesome

Settings for tablets should look like this:

Enable Killswitch: tick
Admin Permissions: tick
Confirmation time: 10sec
Activation delay: 6sec
No-lock: Disable screen lock
Use proximity: no tick
Use light sensor: tick
Sensitivity: 10%
Use accelerometer: no tick

After upgrading to a newer version, please go into the settings dialog and enable Killswitch again. This is not optimal, but it saves battery and cpu time by removing the necessity for a constantly running service!

The app is available right now on the Android Market.

- Choose a network reply (Reject or Dont answer)
- Use profiles to merge different black/ white lists
- Detailed logging
- Rejected call notifications

Root Call Blocker is in Beta, and we invite everyone to download and try out the app!

Began test driving today on LG Optimus M and will try to give useful feedback later.
I've been looking for a system level call blocker to replace the sluggish Mr. Number app.
 
I like it, I like it alot and have sent crash reports.
I used to use Mr. Number but that was a pain as it would sometimes slow the actual ringing of the phone while it checked the number and or checked to see if I had purchased Caller ID.

One thing I need clarification about is the Operating Mode.
Do I need to create another profile for white lists?

Also, I'm assuming you've put Blocked Numbers, Unlisted or Unknown under the Unrecognized numbers choice within Add numbers to list option?

Other than that it's pretty straight forward and works like a charm and would be happy to donate the $3.00 for such a nice app.

Bump bump bump. No users, no suggestions.

And this is the best call blocker for android. I wonder if this is posted in the wrong section?

A mod might help, or not...
