Android Gurus - Is there a way to limit SMS texts to people in your contact list? UPDATE in last post.
Suddenly, I'm getting spam texts and blocking the number does no good - they just use a different number.

I have a call blocker that shitcans any incoming call that's not from a number in my contact list.

Is there an app that will do the same for texts?

I took it to the AT&T store where I bought it and the back room Uber Geek changed the notification settings.

I'll still GET the texts, but they won't trigger a notification unless they're in my contact list.

Not perfect, but better than the phone sounding off 20 times a day for spam.

EDIT: Well, shit. That didn't work after all. Still getting spam from my good friend Hamid...
