Hello
Is there a way to stop the phone or text, etc. from interrupting me when I watch a movie? It's really annoying to be constantly kicked out of Netflix let's say.

Thank you

Whenever I don't want to be bothered when playing games or when watching videos, I put my phone in Airplane mode.

I don't think airplane mode will work for this...because don't you need your data to work so you can watch the movie???.....unless you can download the movie....then it would work...idk..

You could go in and turn off all of your notifications...idk how well that will work..

Data (3g/4g) doesn't work in airplane mode but WiFi does. So if you're watching Netflix via WiFi then using airplane mode would work.

Turn sync off to keep from being interrupted by email. For those with s3 and note 2 turn blocking mode on. For others I believe you should be able to put it in silent mode to keep texts from interrupting you but not sure about calls. Only way is to turn airplane mode on and watch movie via wifi. I am sure there is a copycat blocking mode app on the market by now.

Look on the Play Store for a free app called Network. I use it on my Inc to turn off the cdma (calls and texts) radio. If you're watching over LTE, use it to change your data radio to LTE only. If you're stuck in a 3g only area you can use it to change your radio to evdo only as well.
