Blocking a number doesn’t directly notify the caller that your number is active or that you’ve blocked them. When you block a number, calls are typically redirected to voicemail or disconnected with a generic message like “The number is not in service” or “This call cannot be completed.” Texts are silently discarded. Most callers won’t know your number is live, as they receive no explicit confirmation of the block.
However, savvy or persistent callers (e.g., spammers) might suspect your number is active if they reach a voicemail or hear a carrier-specific message instead of a clear “disconnected” prompt. This isn’t definitive proof, though, as inactive numbers can behave similarly.
TIPS TO MINIMIZE CLUES
Use a generic or no voicemail greeting to avoid confirming your identity. Check if your carrier allows a “disconnected” message for blocked calls.
Avoid answering or engaging with unknown numbers, as any interaction could suggest your number is active.
Consider 3rd-party apps (e.g., Truecaller) for more neutral call handling.
CONCLUSION. Blocking a number doesn’t clearly signal your number is live, but subtle cues might hint at it to persistent callers. If you’re dealing with specific spam or want me to check X for related issues, let me know!
My phone drive isn't showing up. I've restarted my phone, and restarted my computer, and still it's not showing up. Do you know of a way to get it to appear so I can access files on it? Thanks.
The Memory chip (Phone Drive) may have failed. How Old is this phone?
Take it to your phone carrier store and have them check it out.
When adding an Android to another device, you will need to confirm that the link is allowed from the phone and define the transfer method. It doesn't add the Android as a Drive with a letter, but more as a device by the device name. If it is a really old device you may need to download software from the manufacturer to allow viewing and copying files.
On my Samsung, I have found that I need to copy any files I need and then paste them into a folder on a drive.
On my Samsung Tablet, I use a 2 Euro OTG CABLE that plugs into the tablet charging socket. At the other end is a USB A that accepts a USB Memory stick. I then copy the files I need to the stick and take the stick to the PC.
Don't forget to Eject the stick before removal from the Android. This can lead to damaging the stick ... learnt the hard way !!
I received this message this evening. How do I override or fix it? Thanks.
I added a USB hub with External 5volt power supply and that cured the problem. Also cured a problem that, on the USB2.0 Port, the 5volt supply was missing. Brought it back to life.

Most of the temporary files that the system uses are deleted automatically after the task is complete. But there can be some files which stay in your storage for future use. The same can apply for your daily use programs which need these temporary files to complete operations and tasks faster for the users.
This site is a model for selling appliance parts. It's also
excellent at walking a person through the how-to portion of a repair.
I am not handy. When I perform a repair, my next
step is to usually call a professional. When I do fix something I typically attach
a baggy to the back of it full of "extra" screws, nuts, and washers.
Here are the steps.
1. Enter the model of your appliance. A picture of
your appliance pops up.
2. On the picture of your appliance clickable word
bubbles of every possible symptom your appliance might have.
3. Click on the symptom and the correct part to
fix the issue, along with price, etc, will pop up.
4. On the page there is a link to a video showing
you how to fix the appliance.
5. These appear to be their own videos. This was
the best how-to video I have seen. Since this is their video, there are no long-running logos and pre-music. The presenter gets right to the point. The
appliance is repaired in a wide-open space /stage setting. There are no
distractions, the lighting is fantastic, and everything can be easily seen.
6. I watched the video and thought, "I can do
this."
7. I ordered the part on December 20th and it
arrived on the 24th. I did not pay for expedited shipping. I expected to arrive the first week of January.
8. I performed the repair in less than an hour. No
spare parts.
