Often, clients of mobile operators are faced with the fact that their number is inexplicably connected to one or another service that they do not plan to use. In other cases, users enable the required options themselves, but sooner or later the time comes to deactivate them. Today we will talk about how to disable it on Megafon - simple tips will help even the most inexperienced user.

Instructions: how to hide your number on Samsung

To hide a combination of numbers, you need to perform a series of steps:

1. Tap on the icon representing a telephone handset on the main screen.
2. Go to the properties section (three vertical dots in the upper right corner).
3. Go to the settings section. Select the “Additional Services” tab.
4. Here you will need to select the parameter responsible for determining the phone owner’s number. The parameters are set for all SIM cards provided on the gadget. The settings are carried out separately for each.
5. In the menu that appears, select the item that allows you to hide information.

After making changes, they must be saved. Once effective, all calls will be made in incognito mode. The subscriber, instead of a combination of numbers, will see on the screen of his mobile phone information that the position of the incoming call is not known. If he is out of range, he will receive an informational text message after a missed call. In it, all important parameters of the caller will be unavailable for viewing.

Additional software

Virtual stores offer additional software - anti-identifier (anti-caller ID). Please note that not all mobile devices support the installation of such software. In order to install and run such an application on a device, the owner will need to obtain root rights or download an additional application that will help block the ban.

Note that obtaining root rights is not always justified. This may lead to loss of warranty on the gadget or its breakdown. Using deep smartphone settings can lead to irreversible changes and expensive repairs. After downloading the utility (for example, Try-Out), it must be launched on the device. The application operates automatically. All calls to the owner will be made in incognito mode, incoming contacts will be reflected as before.

If there is a need to protect contacts from being viewed by a specific subscriber, and not from all interlocutors, you can use a special combination: #31#. It is dialed before the digital combination of the contact.

Causes

The subscriber may not immediately understand that his phone numbers are affected by any restrictions, especially when the service is automatically activated. For example, after crossing the country's border it turns out that incoming calls are not accepted. But even if you independently choose restrictive measures, you need to know about ways to solve the problem.

Why does it happen:

1. Accidental connection by subscriber.
2. Automatically connects with other conditions.
3. Activated when there is insufficient funds in the account for incoming calls abroad.

Some operators charge a subscription fee for this type of communication regulation, so it is important to know how to disable the ban without buying a new SIM card.

How to make your phone number appear again to your interlocutors

The reasons why you had to hide your phone number on a Samsung smartphone may lose their relevance. And then again you will need to make it visible to all subscribers. To return visibility, the algorithm described above must be repeated in the same order. Except: in the last step, in the proposed menu of three items, select the one that opens the caller’s contacts for viewing by the interlocutor. Note that the interlocutor can add “incognito” calls to the blacklist. After unlocking the function, the subscriber simply will not be able to reach such a contact.

Many people are interested in how to hide their phone number when making calls.

Helpful information

It is important to understand that Caller ID is not a 100% guarantee and protection that your number will not appear anywhere. For ordinary people, relatives, friends, exes and calls based on advertisements, this is an excellent method. But if you want, you can get your number. Therefore, use the services for your benefit and do not overstep the bounds of the law.

Restrictions for individual rooms

It is possible to limit yourself from calls and messages from individuals, but it is not free. To do this, you will need to activate the “Black List” service. Of course, you can use the standard feature on your phone for free, but the service from the operator has several advantages.

Thus, when a MegaFon subscriber’s number is added to the list, not only calls from it, but also messages will be blocked. For numbers of any other operator, messages will be received. In total, up to one hundred numbers can be added to the list. The fee for the service does not depend on their quantity, and is two rubles per day.

If you remove call barring by disabling the “Black List” on the MegaFon number, then within a month your profile will be active. In this case, if you activate the service again, you will not have to enter the numbers into it again.

What is “AntiAON” from Megafon?

“AntiAON” is a service of the mobile operator Megafon, which allows the user to make calls incognito, that is, it is a classic anti-identifier on the phone.

• How to determine who is calling from an unknown or hidden number: 7 ways

All mobile operators in Russia have basic services in their arsenal, which are included in all tariff packages and do not require activation. But if the user wishes, less popular functions can be activated on the phone.

One of these is Anti-AON of the mobile operator Megafon, which is assigned to each network user, but requires additional activation.

Description of the “Call Barring” service from Megafon?

Call barring can concern one aspect or immediately bar all calls without exception. For example, if you leave your phone for someone else to use, you can set a ban so that they can only call from their SIM card and not receive your calls. When you return and pick up your mobile phone, simply disable this ban and that’s it.

Prohibitions can be of the following types::

• any outgoing communication;
• outgoing calls while abroad (you can only make calls in Russia and your host country);
• any international calls (or from a specific country);
• all incoming;
• incoming, which belong to foreign GSM networks;
• any calls other than emergency services;
• everything is fax type;
• all by voice communication type;
• everything except fax and voice.

The call barring service is not compatible with call forwarding. They are mutually exclusive.

Description, types and cost

The main function that the service performs on users’ smartphones is to block the display of information about the caller on the interlocutor’s screen - instead of a combination of numbers and the caller’s name, “Hidden number” or “Unknown caller” will be displayed.

Blocking caller identification is very beneficial in that, having made a call, the user can be sure that he will not receive unwanted feedback, since blocking the caller ID will not reveal his information.

IMPORTANT! This operator option applies only to calls on the home network - when calling from Megafon to other operators, AntiAON may not work correctly.

Another important nuance should be considered that AntiAON is active only when making voice calls; it will not be possible to send a text message from a hidden phone.

The operator divided the service into two types, based on user needs:

• One-time service.
• Standard service.

The second type is connected by those users who plan to make hidden calls constantly, and install the service one-time - if the situation in which the ban is necessary is isolated, and in the future the subscriber’s information can be available on subsequent calls.

The cost of the service directly depends on the type chosen:

Connecting AntiAON to the client’s phone does not affect the cost of outgoing calls - standard tariffs apply for the mobile communications package registered to the user.

IMPORTANT! The pricing information presented in the article is relevant in Moscow and its region. Detailed information regarding the service in other regions can be found on the company’s official website on the Internet.

To do this, you first need to disable the number transfer function in your device and perform the following USSD request: *31*user phone number to which you want to make a call# .

After pressing the call button, the device will automatically begin connecting with the subscriber specified in the request. After the call is completed, the settings must be returned to their original position, otherwise a ban fee will be charged for each call, which will lead to unnecessary expenses for mobile communications.

Connection and service management

Thus, in order to completely block all incoming calls, you will need to enter *barring code*your password#. In order to ban any other request, you need to enter *ban code*your code#. Below are all the codes and types of requests, as well as a detailed and visual description. The password will be 1111. To block any incoming calls, you will need to dial *35*1111# on the device. To check whether the request has been activated, dial *#35#.

If you want to protect yourself from incoming calls in international roaming, you need to enter *351*1111#. To check the connection of the request, it is recommended to dial *#351# . This request allows you to use it only abroad.

Additionally, if you're abroad, you might want to consider turning off outgoing calls as well. This will help reduce communication costs. To do this, you only need to dial *33*1111#. To check the request you need to enter *#33#. Using such a lock, the phone will only work for incoming calls.

While abroad, you can subscribe to a ban that will not allow you to make international calls. At the same time, it will remain possible to make and receive calls within the country where the subscriber is located. To use this feature, enter *331*1111#. To make sure you are connected, you need to dial *#331#.

Subscribers are allowed to temporarily connect to the networks of other operators abroad, while they will be able to make calls on more acceptable terms than under the company's plan. To use the service, enter *332*1111#. The combination *#332# is used as a check.

How to call from a hidden Megafon number?

Calls from a hidden one-time service AntiAON device can be made only once using a single USSD command.

But the connected service on an ongoing basis makes it possible to make calls from a hidden device to all phones registered in the Megafon system.

If you need to reveal yourself to your interlocutor during any call, then you should temporarily lift the ban on identification in this way: *31*number of the called subscriber#.

After pressing the call button, the device switches to the connection in normal mode without blocking the identifier.

Control over option

• Press “2” and “Call”, then enter the desired number. Using this command, you can call a second person back without disconnecting the first line;
• The combination of “2” and “Call” is necessary to move from one line to another;
• The combination of "1" and "Call" is required to interrupt an active conversation.
• Using these keyboard shortcuts, you can control the service for ease of use.

Disabling AntiAON

If you need to cancel your subscription to the Caller ID barring service, you can disable the Caller ID service in several ways:

1. Turn off using a simple special command *105*501*0# and call.
2. You can remove the detection blocking by calling the support service at 0500 .
3. The phone will be identified during calls to other Megafon subscribers if you set the appropriate settings in your Personal Account.
4. In any city in Russia, specialists from Megafon service centers will never refuse assistance in setting up mobile communications.

The phone does not need to disable one-time Anti-AON, since this service is not connected to it, but is activated only at the moment of calling the desired number.

How can I remove call barring?

Call barring can be canceled using a password. This option can be disabled using special commands. If you need to remove the ban on absolutely all calls, use: #barring option code*own password#. When you need to cancel only some types of calls, use: #barring option code*your password*type of call#. It is also possible to use special Ussd commands for this purpose.

The ban on incoming and outgoing calls can be removed in the private premises of the communication salon. You should take your passport and go to the nearest communication store in your city. Then the employee will help remove the ban. But even then you need to use your password.

Can a subscriber find out Megafon's hidden number?

The service is available only for calls, and it does not apply to other functions (sending SMS and MMS messages) - in these cases, the subscriber’s number will be determined, as always. The same applies to calls to users of other operators, but sometimes the function works.

But not only when making calls to other operators, it is possible to find out hidden information incognito. Megafon users can also bypass the number identification ban by activating a special operator service - Super Caller ID. With it, the subscriber will not be disturbed by any “spy”.

Final word

Different people have very different tastes and wishes, so Megafon is ready to accommodate everyone. Studying the demand of its users, Megafon is constantly expanding the range of services for them - this is how AntiAON appeared.

Usually this service from Megafon is used to prank friends or by very secretive individuals who, in order to maintain their reputation, are ready to shell out an additional 150 rubles a month for mobile communications.

This is also a very useful function for the operator’s corporate clients, when it is necessary to make a large number of calls for advertising and other purposes.

To connect the option one-time, use , for which you need to dial the command *111*84#.

There is an option to use the voice menu, available by calling 0500. If you are in roaming, you need to dial 88005500500.

You can also use Megafon’s Personal Account, in the “Services and Options” section.

Beeline

You can hide your number from Beeline using the command *110*071# or by calling 06740971.

Unfortunately, Beeline will not be able to completely hide the number when calling, since this operator provides a number that negates the work of Caller ID.

Skylink

With this operator, connecting to this service is the same as with others. You can connect the caller ID through your SkyPoint personal account by selecting from the list. You can also hide the number one time by adding *52* before the number.

Blacklists

Another, more popular, way to prevent receiving incoming calls from other subscribers is the “Black List”. The resource allows you to block selected phones.

For reference! The operator informs that the user has the right to block any numbers, but short ones do not apply to this number, since in order to add a phone to the emergency situation, it is necessary to enter it in international format indicating the 7 digits of the main phone.

Features of the option

Each client of the operator can connect to the use of the resource on a free basis, while daily use will be charged 1 ruble per day.

From the moment the phone is added to the prohibited list, when its owner tries to call the subscriber, a voice notification will sound indicating that the number is entered incorrectly and that you need to double-check the data and call back.

The use of the service is subject to several restrictions and conditions:

• the maximum size of an emergency cannot exceed 100 contacts;
• SMS messages continue to arrive, the blocking only applies to calls;
• when forwarding is enabled, blocked contacts will be able to call;
• the operator does not guarantee stable operation of the service when blocking phones of other networks, landline and analogue telephone exchanges.

Attention! Once the user's balance reaches zero or a negative value, all calls are received in standard mode.

Service management rules

To start using the Black List, you must first connect it in one of the following ways:

• on the website page with a description of the function, indicate your phone number and confirm agreement with the code from the response SMS;
• log into your Personal Account and activate the desired service;
• send an SMS with the text “YES” to the short number 5130;
• dial *130# from the device keypad and call.

The list of blocked subscribers is also managed directly from the device.

Table 3. Function Control Codes

You can disable the service if you do not need it:

• through the user's personal account;
• USSD menu item “Disable” by command *130#>;
• SMS with the text “OFF” to number 5130.

Important! After disabling the function, the list of telephone numbers added to the emergency situation is saved for 30 days, after which it is deleted without the possibility of recovery.

With the call barring services offered by Megafon, each subscriber can now protect themselves from unwanted conversations with unpleasant people, and when in international roaming, avoid unnecessary unexpected expenses. These services can handle SMS completely if you limit incoming messages using the “Banning Communication Services” resource.
