Roaming Info vs SMS Filter
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Roaming Info
Displays a notification with current operator's name and in case of roaming it also shows the original SIM's operator name. If you swipe (dismiss) the notification, a new one will be displayed when a change in the conexion occurs. To remove the service from memory and avoid further notifications, just tap the notification.
SMS Filter
SMS Filter can filter incoming SMS messages before they reach your inbox. You can filter by address, and optionally add parts that must occur in the message for it to be blocked. By default, SMS Filter will not delete incoming messages. You will get a silent status bar notification when SMS Filter has filtered an incoming message, which you can view by opening the notification or by opening the application. You can also tell SMS Filter to delete incoming messages, in which case it will happily do so for you. To do this, just turn off the 'Save messages' preference.
