Regards

Try Tasker
Thanks! . this looks to be something definitely worth exploring.
Try "QSMS To Buddy:FullFeatured" free app from android market
Use "QSMS to buddy" App from android market.
- This app allows you to send sms to missed/rejected calls.
- It also allows you to send a 'default' sms after user specified time period. e.g. you can specify to send a msg after 10 secs
- *** You send sms during "Outgoing" call reject as well
- *** You have ability to messages while sending the reject sms depending on the context. e.g. "I will call back in 10 mins" instead of "I will call back later"
There are other interesting features as well in this app. Watch demo at youtube with key word "QSMS : Quick SMS To Buddy Android App by Onion Systems"

Root Call Blocker also includes a feature similar to what you're looking for
Why would you want to do th at? I just don't get it.
Some countries ban usage of mobile phones while driving, so instead of pissing about with your phone while driving, you can block the call and tell them why without having to touch the phone. Could be used in meetings, school/college too. there are so many uses
Thanks for all the replies. Another classic example is you are in a middle of a meeting/conference and u get an important call (from ur better half ;-) ? ) . You may not be in a position to take the call - easier if u get an option to send predefined sms - when u reject the call - with the flexibility of not having SMS being sent out whenever u reject a call.
Reject++
If you are looking for an app to let you reject incoming calls with predefined or custom SMS and setup a reminder to return a call as well..
so check Reject++
You can:
- Reject a call with SMS, Reminder, Or Both.
- Convenient Slider on top of incoming call screen, slider it up and go with Reject++
- Smart SMS Templates with "Tags"
- Smart Reminders Scheduling Engine.
- Works with mobile screen locked or OFF
- Notifications works no matter if the app is active or not.

Hi
There are some special message types.
Flash SMS
The Messages shows up directly after it was received, no need to open the Message app etc.
Silent Message (Silent SMS, Stealth SMS, Stille SMS or stealthy ping)
No message appears
Is there a way to log these silent sms arriving to my android?
Can we send flash/silent sms with android, any app for that?
Information
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stille_SMS#Spezielle_Nachrichtentypen (GERMAN)
couldn't find it on English wiki some one wanna add it?
Take a look at the 26C3 page there is a interesting talk about SMS «Fuzzing the Phone in your Phone»
Do you found any answer to this question, anywhere else ? I am using HushSMS for windows Molbile and look for the equivalent for Android.
I downloaded Flash SMS from the market and it does not work at all
Stock ROM doesn't provide API required for "special" SMS sending (ability to create whole sms body as byte array)
Yes, you can send this SMS with rooted Android via this app - https://www.silentservices.de/products/android-hushsms/
And yes, you can log incoming Silent SMS with this app https://github.com/CellularPrivacy/Android-IMSI-Catcher-Detector/wiki/Special-SMS
Silent SMS/Ping app for Android (no root)
I've used this app for years and been pretty happy with it so far. It can be used on Android phones and does NOT require phone to be rooted to work and it's free.

What It Does
Mobile Receptionist automatically handles calls, SMS, and other events, with user-configurable criteria and actions.
How It Works
You configure the Mobile Receptionist via Profiles. Profiles handle incoming events and phone status changes.
Multiple profiles can be enabled simultaneously. For example, you could have one profile automatically forward all incoming SMS messages to an email address for archiving, and another one that responds to all SMS messages and incoming calls while you're at work.
The Full Profile has Rules. Each Rule contains Criteria and Actions. If all the Critiera are met, then all the Actions are executed. There are also Criteria for the Profile, which apply globally to all Rules in the Profile.
The Full Profile has complete functionality and flexibility of Rules, Criteria, and Actions - but there are also specialized Profile types that are streamlined and easier to configure:
A Sms Responder Profile only handles incoming calls/sms and responds to the original caller.
A Event Monitor Profile only monitors events and sends notifications to a set address.
A Blacklist Profile only ignores or hangs up on certain numbers or contacts.
A Remote Control Profile allows remote control of the phone. Send SMS, get GPS coordinates, disable/enable profiles, look up contact information, etc.
Use cases
Watching a movie: set up rules to respond to missed calls and text messages with an SMS saying you're unavailable and will get back to them later.
Archiving: set up rules to forward all text messages to your email account.
Multiple phones: if you have a work phone and a personal phone, after working hours you could set up rules on your work phone to send SMS to your personal phone if the call/message is urgent.
Remote notification: If you're entering a secure building where you can't bring your phone, but have internet access, set up rules to send you an email every time you missed a call, got a text message, have an upcoming appointment.
Requirements
Windows Mobile 5 or greater
.NET CF 3.5 or greater
Unlimited SMS plan (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)
Unlimited Data plan (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

New in 0.94, i've added the Remote Control profile, which lets you remotely send text messages, look up contact or appointment info, get the phone's current GPS coordinates, enable/disable other profiles. I've also added the ability to automatically answer calls, as well as extend the SMS responder profile with the full range of filters.
I have discovered that I am being charged...
for all SMS received while I am abroad...
Will this software have the ability to set my phone
so as to allow any incoming or outgoing calls
while rejecting ALL INCOMING SMS ?

unfortunately this app won't affect your phone from receiving sms, it only acts after the fact.
What a pity !

A good recepcionist should know when not to answer !
In so doing there would be no cause for a lie !
Jajaja....
May I invite you to consider that SMS blocking, please ?
Thank you very much.

no app can block an sms from being received - that's up to the carrier
Therefore it should be illegal...

..to charge for any received messages on the basics that
the user receiving an unrequested message is being actually
charged for it...without having no way to avoid it !
If I go abroad and anyone sends 10.000 SMS I will simply start
looking for a bridge to live under.
Police, police, police !
you can use my app to automatically respond to all incoming sms with the message "please stop texting me!"
I am not making myself understood....

I travel very often.
When I step off the plane in Rome, a SMS is received as soon as
I turn on my phone wellcoming in Italy.
A charge of 0,60 euro is made.
I then go to London. Same charge.
I go to Paris. The same.
Three times a day...1,80 euro.
Twenty days a month...36 euro for havung my phone on !
And I am not considering other messages of unwanted advertisement !
SMS should be received only when desired, exactly the same as incoming calls...
Can you imagine your phone answering all calls without you deciding to do so ?

Ok.....
Thanks anyway. ...
out of beta
now that the beta is closed, when will I be able to buy this?
believe me i want to get this app to market as soon as possible. I have some polish and cleanup to do and my day job to deal with to. let's hope I can get the final version done by july.
in the meantime, enjoy the app and let me know how out works for you.
Found a way to stop/resume SMS reception...
STOP SMS reception: Call *35*0000*16#
RESUME SMS reception: Call #35*0000*16#
In each case a "successful" report will be received after dialing.
I think perhaps you would like to include a switch to automatically
stop/resume SMS on that basis...

I have a black list of contacts. I want block incoming and outgoing sms for this contacts. How block incoming sms I know, but how about outgoing sms?
Please, help me with this task.
Thanks a lot!
I don't see the problem with outgoing sms ??? Just don't text these people.
As for incoming sms have you tried applications like Call & SMS Filter or Call Blocker X?

It's not so easy
I want to block some contacts, so that my children never have written to them
I can think of 2 options quickly:
1. Don't let the kids use the phone
2. Buy them their own phone
I suppose an application could be created to do what you want. Or maybe something like adding a password to certain entires in you Contacts.
I'm actually finishing-up an app that functions as a SMS spam blocker; maybe my next app will be adding a password function to Contacts.
Just checked android default sms app and sms content provider source code, it looks like it's not possible to intercept and cancel outgoing message. It's a pity that we're not able to add this functionality to our future parental control app.
I'm not overly impressed with whomever coded the SMS and Contacts databases and have given considerable thought to writing my own. I found this out when writing my SpamText blocker which I kind of put on the back-burner due to fear of deleting ALL text messages from someone's phone. That whole "thread_id" is scary, at least to me.
I like the "conversations" feature of SMS, but it really should be broken-down by day or make any text in the conversation deleteable. I might get 10 texts from one person in a day, but just might want to save 4 of them because they have some valuable information.
Then there is a security issue with coding this type of application; Android gives the developer a lot of rope regarding messaging.
If your children are the one whos playing with your phone, why don't you use one of those pw locking apps? You can choose to lock whichever app you want with it.

I think the use case is just to allow children to sms and call to fixed numbers only.

You can't delete individual texts? What?
Nope, at least on my Droid X default SMS client. All distinct phone numbers and SMS messages are grouped together in a "conversation" no matter if that person texts 10 times in one day or 100 times over 6 months.
I know you can set a message limit, but I'm not sure what it does if you set it to 5 and get the 6th message from the same #; maybe someone else knows...
I have been searching for blocking outgoing test messages also but for a different reason.
I live near the border and allthough my phone is set to only my home network every now and than it switches to roaming and pretty often I send text messages by accident while roaming. Sometimes it switches networks while I am typing the message or it looses connection and I am at the mercy of which network it will connect and send the text message.
So an app that would block outgoing text messages while roaming (or maybe even only sending on home network) would come in very handy.
Why don't you just delete the contacts? Easiest solution

You should read my post! Obviously I need all my contacts to call/text whenever I am not roaming!
I m also interested in blocking outgoing msg to specific number, my wife is Canada so she send me msgs from her canadian phone no. and I reply to serbian one, which is free - included in my monthly fee, but every now and than i reply to her canadian which costs me, and it wouldnt be big of a deal, but my courier dont have contract with hers so they charge for the sms, which she doesnt receive, so was trying to find a way to block outgoing msg to her canadian no. but need to be able to receive from it

As far as I know there is no way of intercepting outgoing messages. very strange that we can do almost anything on a smartphone but have very limited control over basic operations like sending text message options.
Same goes for LED notification, should be standard on all phones. (2 of my biggest annoyances espcially as it concerns very basic phone operations)
Android system does not provide a way to block outgoing SMS.
The similar question was discussed on Android Developers hung out on
26-Apr-2012, and Android Developers stated clearly that it is not
possible.
One suggestion was to put the phone into Airplane mode at the time of
sent SMS intent, but again its unlikely to put the phone into
airplane mode pro-grammatically.
The similar issue has been already discussed on android-platform Group
as well.

want to block foreign sms's
I also have the above problem of my wife sending texts to foreign countries and getting charged. Usually she sends via fishtext which is affordable but every now and then if she is in a hurry or forgets to use the fishtext widget she sends via normal sms mode which costs a ton.
I cant believe there is no simple app to stop the user sending sms's.
Everyone has a 'cute' solution (like delete the contacts lol!) but they don't realise the difficulty of trying to manage another persons phone but one that you still have to pay the bills for e.g. kids or spouse.
Surely there must be an app out there that does this although I can currently find it!!!
Anyone??
There some app in android send sms without permission
It is always not easy when children are involved in any process They are so quick that sometimes it is difficult to notice that they have taken your phone and started pressing buttons. When you realize it, it is already late and the messages have been sent.
Why not get an app locker and lock the messaging app.
On a per contact basis, many apps have block features built in but not to block sms completely.

Some apps send messages without your consent.
And even some ROMs.
For example son phones (Xiaomi) with MIUI try to send an SMS to China to activate your SIM but they don't do it well, it doesn't work you spend money every time you reboot your phone.
Hello Guys,
Quite a while ago I used a Symbian app as an answerphone on my Nokia N96. I believe it was called Advanced Call Manager.
The question is: Are there any apps out there that will allow me to use my Samsung Galaxy SII to answer incoming calls and record messages.
These were the features of ACM for the N95:
More efficient call-handling options you can assign to different contacts
ACM gives you five more ways to subtly escape calls without having to hang up:
Busy tone – send a busy tone to callers. Avoid acting rude by hanging up.
Busy tone and SMS – add a personal touch to sending a busy tone: inform your callers with pre-assigned SMS replies.
Mute the ringer – let the calls through with a muted ringer. More discrete, and keeps you undisturbed.
Divert calls – forward incoming calls when you are unavailable.
Play a personal greeting (Nokia devices only) – set your own answering machine and record the caller’s message straight onto your phone, avoiding having to call your operator to check voice messages.
Handle groups of contacts by creating lists
The easiest way to handle your calls is to divide callers into lists such as “Friends,” “Family,” “Work” and assign blocking rules for each. ACM gives you several handy list options:
Work with blacklists and whitelists – block or allow calls from people included in a list.
Import contacts from your phonebook – simplified list creation.
Individual settings allowed – personalize how ACM handles an individual caller included in a list (for example, send a specific SMS auto-reply to your mother while the default blocking action for list “Family” is to send busy tone).

The closest thing I have come across is Hullomail but this has to have all calls forwarded to there answer service. I'd prefer to simply handle all calls on my SGS2
Cheers.

Yes I've seen that one, but... It does not record or answer incoming calls on the Android platform.
Does anyone have experience of any apps along these lines?
is there an app on the market where I can set a schedule to reject all calls after 11pm and automatically send a sms?

Use "QSMS to buddy" App from android market. This app allows you to send sms to missed/rejected calls. It also allows you to send a 'default' sms after user specified time period. e.g. you can specify to send a msg like 'sleeping at this moment' after Zero secs at night (while your phone is on silent).
