I want to drop a particular call if caller number belongs to some 'black-list'.
Is there any such possibility to do this programmatically on iOS (iPhones and iPads)?
From my understanding, such program must be running all the time like system service but I've never seen such apps. If no, then I could run app by myself and put it in background, but will the app from background be able to do this, and finally are there ant methods in API for performing this?
There's no public APIs for achieving anything like that.
Moreover this is a functionality that Apple will embed in iOS7, as per the last WWDC conference.

I need to add unlockables to my application, but the problem is that I don't want to have to send out an update every time that I want to add something new. I have read a bit about servers and JSON and XML. I just wanted to check to see if anybody else had a better idea?
If you are talking about something like a logo change then, short of an app update, the only option you have is getting it from an outside source such as a server transmission. But now you are talking about in-app purchases which, if you have not already, should read up on.

Server based image and/or text transmissions are easily done and if I understand your last comment correctly, these updates would not be very frequent anyway.

I want to run my application every minute in background on iOS. Can I do this ? Is there any example ?
Thank you.
Check out https://developer.apple.com/library/IOs/#documentation/iPhone/Conceptual/iPhoneOSProgrammingGuide/ManagingYourApplicationsFlow/ManagingYourApplicationsFlow.html
for a look at what you can and cannot do in the background on IOS.
Many tasks which you might want to do in the background can be done through the OS, such as notifications, but when your app is in the background, it should spend the majority of its time in a suspended case unless:
You need to implement at least one of several specific user services.
You need to perform a single finite-length task.
You need to use notifications to alert the user to some relevant piece of information when your app is not running.
(these were taken from the site I linked)

I am trying to use the UIGlassButton on my iPhone 5 running iOS 6.1 final. There are no errors, just that the UIGlassButton doesn't show up. I also tried this and many other yet finished GlassButton proects on GitHub etc., but none of them works.
What am I doing wrong?
This is exactly the reason why you shouldn't use private API's. Because classes like these are for internal use only, they could change or even be removed in between OS updates.
Imagine you would have used this in an application already in the store, it would either crash or just not show the buttons. A good way to treat your users.
UIGlassButton is a private class and should not be used. To create a similar effect build the button yourself or use images.

I want let users make calls through my app. Is there a way to hide the number being called, so that the privacy is protected?
Thanks
I don't think that this is possible, as it could be used for malicious purposes.
If you want the privacy of the person making the call to be hidden, you can use a *67 prefix on the number when you dial. Basically, just add *67 to the beginning of the number. Most US carriers support this.

I am developing an iPhone app and I need it to call a number that starts with *, is there a way to overcome Apple's restrictions (I know they prevent that)?
If Apple has explicitly restricted something then you can't just "overcome" it in the build in SDK. Usually the only way to get around Apple's security protocols is to develop an application strictly for Cydia.
