Call Waiting Problem ! - HTC Excalibur

So, when i call someone that it's already engaged in a conversation, why i don't receive the message or the tone that tells me that ? it keeps ringing but with no alert what so ever so i can know that he is call waiting.
is it a way to have me alerted ?

what exactly is your problem? When I receive a call while in conversation it beeps and shows the caller.

yeah, but when you call somebody and he's in a conversation you don't know that because the phone does not tell you that the one who you are callng is engaged in conversation.

if it rings and rings then he is ignoring your call. Thats not a problem with your phone. When you dial a number and it rings your phone is doing exactly what its supposed to be doing.

How to disable Second Call notification?

When we are talking, and the next call comes it gives the notification of the second call with a sound, which can be heard by other person also with who we are talking....
Is there any way to disable the sound notification so that other person wont be hearing it.... Its really annoying when we are in the middle of the converstaion and it gives... also we dont want to know others to know we are getting a call...
Does anybody know how to disable this?
MNIKO
Disable Call Waiting in the Services function of the Phone.
No...Not there Call waiting....
Just the notification sound we get in the middle of the call... Its ok we know we have second call, but why is it necessary for the other person too?... Some times I really dont understand things with HTC ideas....
It works perfect in Nokia, where only the caller can get the notification not the other end....

Call Waiting Issue

While on the phone with someone, if someone else calls, the current call goes completely mute.my girlfriend can't hear them and they can't hear her. Is there anyway I can fix this?
I have a Nexus One and I don't experience this issue.
This happened to me today! Ended up having to hang up on them and callin um back. Wonder what were doing wrong?

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but this sounds like normal call waiting behavior to me. If you want the current and incoming call to be able to hear each other you need to conference the calls, not use call waiting...
I'm having the same problem on my TP2.
What happens is this... You are on a call with 1 person... Another person calls, call waiting shows that another person is calling, BUT the problem is that my phone gets muted. You CAN hear the person you are on the line with, but they CAN NOT hear you, and turning your mute on and off does not help. Also, even if u take the other call... That person also can not hear you.
This is a big problem because you must end the call and call back the person u were on the line with... also, if the other person keeps calling... it turns into a real mess...
Any ideas?

You can normally tell when someone does receive a call waiting notification either from the conversation cutting out or hearing some other anomally. I don't think that this would be a software issue for Google to fix though.

I turned the call waiting off , then i called myself and picked up, and then called from another number at the same time then it just say user is busy it gives no beeping or any kind of notification when i am on a call, this is one of the issues with android. and definately a missing feature or havent been looked at.Cause only i should get the notification for beeping not the caller who is on call waiting.
i havent used any androids before but in any other phone i used there is no notification to my caller that i am receiving a call just to me i get a beep sound that someone is on call waiting.
No one has an answer ? Common guys I am on the biggest websites for android.
Anyone of you tried what i am talking about ?
I use the settings you were describibg and i get an anoying double beep sound when someone else calls me...
Just by "phone-app > settings > adittional >".
Remember that some serviceproviders don't support this feature though.

yes thats the exact setting i am goin too.
well i am sure my service provider support what i am talking about as my previous nokia 5230 is working fine,
is there any develpor even looking or understanding what i am trying to say here ?
or can someone point me in a direction so i can atleast point this to someone who can do something about it ?
have anyone tried or tested what i am talking about ?
ok again i ll try to elaborate my question again.
i am on a call with 1st person , a second person calls me i can hear the beep that someone else is calling but the 1st person i am talking to also gets a beep that another person is calling me. why ?
and if i turn off call waiting is settings>additinal settings then i dont get any notification and i cant pick up the call ,as i am not notified,and the second user just get that i am busy

Wauw I never knew other hear the beep as well. But as fast as it happens i tell the person i'm calling with to wait for a second (unless that call is more important) and then i click the on hold button. After 2 or 3 seconds my phone will ring and I can pick it up...
how long are people allowed to dial in, and have you got redirect (wich standard goes to voicemail) on at your phone or provider? Check that up by dialing your voicemail and checking the spoken information. As for the beep... i can't reproduce it nor know it... how loud is your speaker?

Basically what he is saying that both parties hear the beep when someone is calling him. I hear it too in my phone, I think its a service provider thing because in my country, every phone I had switched on call waiting both parties will hear the beep.
P.s even when using my Bluetooth so there is no way they can hear it from my speaker.

exactly, but if i put my sim in my nokia phone only i hear the beep that someone is calling the other person doesnt.
So i am sure this is not related to service provider.
I am in canada and with WIND
Then long gone the feature phones. Welcome to the smart phones world. I don't think you can get rid of that, I'm stuck with it so I stopped paying attention. You should too

Well how can you say that this is a feature ? lol......
I know this is a smartphone , but right know i can see this is a dumb feature(if you call it a feature),or i can say this havent been looked into at all by google.
So now my question do all androids have this same issue ?
Can some pro-dev tell me if there is anything that can be done ,any tweak any software ?

Call Settings

This has always been a problem I am just now getting around to posting it. I must be doing something wrong. If I am on the phone with someone and someone else calls. I tell them I will call them back and take the latest incoming call but it never hangs up. I sit there and talk to the other person and it will continue to say they are there. Then once I am done talking to that person what will happen is I will hang up and the first caller will make a dial tone like beep beep beep then hang up it's weird.
Have you tried hanging up on the existing call, then accepting the incoming? When that happens [rarely ever for me], that generally works, and no issues.

I never have. I always just accepted the call. Also, I noticed lately that whenever I get a call a voice comes on and asks do I want to accept the call. Must be a setting I changed but I thought that I changed it back. Doesn't matter if it is a contact or unknown number or landline or cell.

Hmm, maybe a bug? Oh, well to fix the voice issue:
> log into voice on the chrome browser
> go into call settings
> UNCHECK call screening
Someone told me it could be Google Voice which I recently installed. But I uninstalled that and Skype and I still get a message once I accept a call. It says press one to accept or two for voicemail. Never used to do this. I am on FreeGS3. Not the latest update.

What you've found is the call waiting feature. When you accept the incoming call, it places you current conversation on hold while you answer the new call. If you would complete the second call and end it, it would reconnect you to the first call. Since you told the first caller that you would call back, he hung up but you placed that call on hold, hence the dial tone. If you would actually "end" the first call before taking the second on you wouldn't have the issue.

Hi, can you check if the hear phone work fine? I suggest you to carry your phone to assistance workshop. Regards.
In your dialler type in ##634# and check the issues there, Then you can send off for repair through Nokias website etc.
Might be a long shot, but worth trying:
When you call someone, check incall volume (WP has 2 different volumes, normal 0-30 and incall 0-10). Just push volume up button when you've started the call and make sure it isn't on 0.

This was exactly my problem, I worked it out whilst doing that system check up there. Then came back after success to finish reading the thread.
