Root Call Blocker APK Download for Android

Description

RCB is a powerful call, SMS and MMS blocker.

As of Android 8, root blocking is not possible and RCB will default to no root mode, which does not block SMS at all. There are specialized apps that will do that better than RCB set as the default messaging app.

I do not provide direct technical support for this app. You can send logs through the settings and I will examine them in due course but do not expect replies - I work on this app in whatever spare time I find.

I am always available for commercial support - if you're having problems with a purchase, write to support@fahrbot.co.uk for a prompt response.

Please do not try to get my attention with ugly ratings, I will ignore them and will only answer logs if I need technical feedback.

Root users must make sure they have the latest binary, either Magisk or SuperSU.

If you experience problems first follow the instructions below. If that doesn't help, set SELinux to permissive mode and follow them again - it may.

Issues? Do this EXACTLY:

1. Back up using RCB internal backup
2. Uninstall
3. Reboot
4. Install directly from Google Play
5. Start app, test function
6. Restore internal backup

To use this app in root mode together with auto-update in Google Play, you must disable re-authentication in your superuser manager, or you will keep losing root access and breaking daemon function.

This app will not be able to block calls or SMS over IP. That means you must disable VoLTE, VoIP or "enhanced messaging" if calls or texts are not being blocked.

Do not use third party backup applications - only internal backup. If you don't care for my advice and it doesn't work after restoring through your regular backup mechanism, follow the instructions below.

In root mode, to remove the RIL daemon you need to uninstall the app and reboot your device.

Permissions, the ones with * are only needed in root mode:

android.permission.CALL_PHONE
android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE
android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS
android.permission.INTERNET
android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS
android.permission.PROCESS_OUTGOING_CALLS
android.permission.READ_CALL_LOG
android.permission.READ_CONTACTS
android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
android.permission.READ_LOGS
android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE
android.permission.READ_SMS
android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED
android.permission.SEND_SMS
android.permission.VIBRATE
android.permission.WRITE_CALL_LOG
android.permission.WRITE_CONTACTS
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
*android.permission.WRITE_SMS
*android.permission.ACCESS_SUPERUSER

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

5 ★This iz just awsm.bt why i cant use it

5 ★Great app compared to others superb performance

4 ★I've used this app for quite a long time without any issues. Recently it has started to crash when trying to add a number. I followed the instructions as indicated by the developer (regarding root and SuperuserSU.

5 ★Besides the fact the Dev seems to be incredibly rude to anyone that criticizes his app, it's a GREAT app. This is what happens when you dominate the market, you can be that way I guess. There is no other option for this type of app and if it "stops working" read the description and it will help you fix that problem. Really, really good app.

1 ★As with the other feedback, mine keeps crashing as well. Every time I try to add a new number. I emailed the author, only to be told that there was nothing wrong with his application... that explains the 3.8 rating on this app. And what the author doesn't understand, is that users shouldn't have to read a rather lengthy description in order to get an app to work properly! This is Play Store dude, not XDA!

1 ★The app crashes as soon as I try to add a new number to blacklist.

1 ★As others have noted, app crashes repeatedly when adding new numbers to blacklists.

4 ★The background service constantly disappears for unknown reasons. This is really annoying and makes it almost unusable.

5 ★UPDATE: the issue has been fixed with the latest update and create button now works properly, awesome developer with great support, i will buy the pro version because this dev deserves all the support. thank you for fixing the issue. Previous Review: Well its great decent app but always crashing when tapping add button, im on s7 edge android v6.1, create button works well and app seems to work, so its the app itself not su as description says as the app indeed has su permission and work normally, my assumption is there is null reference in code when tapping add button on any list, unfotunately i was about to buy the pro version but i think it will have the same issue, dev plz fix if u r reading this and ill support u and buy pro version

3 ★This app used to be brilliant. it just worked no matter what.. Now its the most temperamental thing on my phone, one minute its working, the next minute it wont. Really annoying that i can set it up and test it and it works and then an hour later im getting calls from blocked numbers..

3 ★Keeps on crashing after the update pls fix this issue. It is a great app but the crashing its annoying pls fix

3 ★Works well but messes with my cell reception and internet connection and music and videos freeze while a call or sms is being blocked yes i have ticked debug in the app tried all steps and still have issues samsung galaxy s4 rooted
