Blocking calls from a country - Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions

I get a lot of calls from foreign countries where its 3-5 second calls to make you call back to an overpriced number.
Is it possible to block a country by area numbers?

Not sure if using * would work, but possible your carrier?

Any way to place VOIP calls that appear to come from the cell #?

I'm wondering if there is any way to make voip calls that appear to come from your cell phone number rather than a VOIP service. Is such a thing possible?

How to restrict outgoing international calls?

Hi,
I live in Europe, at the border between 3 countries and I visit friends quite frequently in the other 2 countries. On those occasions, I need to be able to make international calls. The rest of the time I would like to restrict outgoing international calls. More than few times, I have dialed by accident one of my contacts abroad when I am in my country. For this reason, I don't want to call back and for by carrier to block international numbers.
Is there any app that can let me restrict outgoing international calls whenever I want?
I have a rooted phone using CM10.
Cheers,
I found the perfect app for my request. I used the app called Call Blocker

[Q] Auto switch dialer/calling app based on number

So I have this problem, I call both local and international numbers, and have to go through an annoying process every time I make a call.
If I make a call to Canada (where I'm from) I use my standard dialer.
If I make a call to the US, I use Google Voice, via the Talkatone app.
If I make a call internationally, I use Skype.
Also, when I'm traveling:
If I make a call to Canada from outside Canada, I use the Rogers One Number app.
If I make a call to the US from the US (with US sim), Google voice integrates directly with the normal dialer.
Isn't there some app that could just see the number I am dialing and auto choose the correct app? I don't like having to choose it every time, as I make many more local calls than International ones.
I've searched and searched and found no app or mod to provide this functionality. I had this function on my Windows Mobile phone back in 2005, so I don't think this should be that difficult.
Even if it just differentiated by country code, that'd be fine. (i.e. If Country code not = 1, use Skype)

Question Receiving call on both sims at same time

Hello! As per thread title I was wondering if it is possible to receive a call on both sims at same time. To be more precise even while in a call on sim1, I would like to receive or at least being notified of calls received by sim2.
I tried some settings but nothing. Does it depend purely on the sims carrier or is it something at phone setting?
Thanks,

Has anyone ever gotten VoLTE to work on an M5, and if so, how?

I ask because I recently got an 8.4" M5, and want to continue making cell calls with it it on T-Mobile when they finish replacing the 2G and 3G on their towers in my area.
I don't have a direct solution for you-- I really don't know. I have a WiFi-only model.
If you have no other solution, you might use some VOIP service to link with your mobile provider. Many of them can be linked one way or another with one or more existing phone numbers.
If you're in the US, the natural answer would be Google Voice. It will ring on your tablet as long as you have an internet connection-- even on WiFi. You can call out using Google Voice to US phone numbers for free. But for incoming calls you would have to supply your contacts with your Google Voice phone number. You can give Google Voice a list of your mobile and landline numbers to link into the service. So it will ring all those phone numbers when callers dial your Google Voice phone number. I often take and answer calls on my tablet this way.
