Android Central Question

The block number still rings my phone at least two rings. I thought the purpose of blocking numbers is so your phone does not ring.

Which phone?
Which version of android?
Which carrier?
Which dialer app?

Caller ID info often comes in between the first and second ring. Depending on your dialer/phone app, this may result in one ring on a blocked number. My LG V30 does not ring on blocked numbers. I am not sure how they get around that except to suppress the first ring.
