Block a Messenger contact, but * allow * calls

Is it possible to block a contact so that I don't get their text (SMS/MMS) messages, but still allow to their phone calls to receive?

1. I am aware that I have the option to turn on the "do not disturb" under the screen of details in the message itself. I don't even want to see messages from this person when I'm scrolling other messages.

2. I am also aware that you can go to: settings > Messages > blocked. But here, it says that "you will not receive calls, messages, or people on the blocked list FaceTime."

Any help would be appreciated.

[For those who die with curiosity, the reason is bc that person is bold enough to be harassed by the text, but they are not quite as controversial while talking. And I must be able to communicate with this person.]

Is not possible if they are using their phone number as an identifier for both messages and voice calls.  With imessages, if you had someone with an iPad only and therefore not associated with their account of imessage, telephone number you could do a contact phone number for calls and a different address contact only for e-mail messages and block this contact.

But when a phone number as means of identification for voice calls and messages (SMS and iMessage) then the only option is to block all traffic of this contact.

  • Cannot delete the Messenger Contact Blackberry blackBerry smart phones

    Hi all

    I need help with a problem in Blackberry Messenger.  My wife got a new Blackberry Pearl in order to replace a damaged.  She added me to BB Messenger with his new PIN, however, now I have duplicate entries in my BB Messenger contacts list.  The strange part - I am unable to delete his old contact.  I can delete any contact but his old man.  It seems "blocked."

    If it helps, in my contacts list, its BB icon shows that looks like he's in a voice call.

    Help, please.

    Try removing the battery without turning off the phone.

    Make sure its not connected to anything (cable, charger), make sure that its turned ON, then lift the battery out.

  • Library, impossible to watch live TV, but allows to record

    I use windows 7 media center for weeks with no problems. I did not any changes for weeks. I now have the problem where I can't watch live TV. I get the message saying that the service is unavailable.

    I tried again to search for channels, and he found all the 96 that where there before.

    I also tried to reinstall the tunner drivers (terratec 2400 double tunner).

    Now, I have discovered that I can record tv, on any channel and found reading the account, to tv while is recordeding, but I can't watch it live? He just got the message:
    "The Service is unavailable.
    Currently, there is no TV signal detected for this channel. The channel can be temporairly air. Try again later.

    I tried windows update and system restore tried a week ago and still get the same results.

    I also have the results idenctical if I try to watch tv from the center of media extender.

    There is no error, I can see in the case log.

    Any ideas what I can try next?

    See you soon

    Hmm me runs again for the first time in the days...

    I think he might have something to do with a program of lil, I was running in the background called MCE multi monitor. I have used this to run MC in my second monitor - but allows you to UN-trap the mouse from the 2nd monitor and bring back to play in the first screen.
    It's worked ok for everyday, but maybe somehow he bugged and messed up MC - trick into thinking that the TV tuner was still in ISU is by another program (maybe Analyzer multi MCE)...
    Try to restart this program MCE Multi monitor and to try and reproduce the problem - I discovered that I couldn't find in any of my regular installation files. for example. c:/Program Files etc. I found myself he's tracking using search - he was in a Temp folder (and must have been there since when I first extracted and directed the program). So maybe you have something interupting same MC if you do not see what you have installed in your convention paths.
    So perhaps this sheds some light on your question - or cancels a bit more out variables in the process of eliminating :)
