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 ?
You can Automatically put a Call on Speaker using Voice Command
Good find, thanks!
Found it but only by accident.
Oho, very usefull, i'm gonna try it on lumia 800
Very cool. Anyone know if you can answer a call on a sleeping phone with a voice command? That would be handy for an incoming call when driving. Something like "answer call on speaker".
Or you can just click the speaker button.
I always accidentally put it on speaker mode using voice command but never knew how to actually trigger it

Well I'm glad they did, I had no idea you could do this. And it saves from that second of looking down while driving to hit the speaker button (sometimes it's just not an option to pull over).

I sure hope you're not driving in the Miami area. Ever heard of bluetooth?

Well after some Minutes I figured out the German command:
I didn't work for me very well, he told many times, that he can't find the contact, because he recognizes "lautsprecher" (ger. speaker) as part of the name.
"ruf X an auf Lautsprecher" (ger. "call X on speaker") did not work at all, I had to say: "ruf X an, Lautsprecher" (ger. "call X, speaker") but even that didn't work very well, like I said above.
Anyway, good to know that there is a function for that, but I think I will still use the button for that.. :/
Thanks anyway!
Cool
Press the Windows phone button and say " What can I say" when it asks you to speak.You get the complete list of commands that you can say to you phone.Be sure you scroll to the left and the right to see the other commands other than call.
I remember stumbling upon this by accident when I said "Call Michael R." but slurred momentarily afterwards, and then my WP responded by saying "Calling Michael R. on Speakerphone". Cue epic "WTF?". Still, it's an impressive feature to have.
A thing for headset users (like I have the HTC headset for my TITAN), the "Play/Pause" button on the headset may also be able to trigger Microsoft TellMe. A tip for this though, if you're planning to do this I recommend going to Settings -> Speech -> and make sure "Use Speech when the phone is locked" is checked.
P.S. I do have the contact's full surname in the entry, but have simply put the initial there for the purposes of respecting his privacy.
thanks for an information thread
The way windows phone handles voice commands over Bluetooth is one of the big selling points for me. I like the way it reads out SMS over my car speakers and gives me the option to respond by voice. I also have an HTC one x but never use it in the car (I.e most of my working day) because I cannot find an android app that replicates this function with the ease if use that wp has built in out of the box.
(P.S. before any flame wars start, I am not not knocking the One x or android, I love the hi Def screen, some of the games and the text ref low in the browser, the industrial design is also second to none IMHO.)
So after having a listen to the response to pressinf the centre (windows button) and saying "What can I say?"
You can do the following (some things are more obvisou that others):
"Call xxx" - preforms the standard call a contact. The only difference is that the first time you say a contact name you have to select which of their numbers you wish to associated with their name.
"Call xxx, mobile" This way you are accepting they have more than one number so you could choose to say call and a different phone type I assume.
"Call xxx, on speakerphone" Well this one is what started this thead in the first place.
"Redial" Another pretty obvious one really.
"Find xxx in xxx" Find something somewhere.
"Find Weather in xxx" like Siri on iOS proving you weather info.
"Open xxx" or "Start xxx" Enables opening an app handsfree. This works well with "Hey DJ" which is a handsfree music player. (Nice!).
"Text xxx" I like this one, as it enables you to text someone handsfree.
During a call you can start speach and say "Call" to call another person or "Press" to press a number.
Hope this helps those that haven't or don't want to listen to the "What can I say?" response.
This is based on using a Nokia Lumia in the UK.
Cant get it working.. help lol
Here's a discussion about it
http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s3/595282-incoming-call-accept-reject-voice-not-working.html
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Saw that yesterday. Ive tried mute, ring on, vibrate.... nothing works
Make sure you don't have it vibrate in call settings.
Tried it....
When a call comes in does it say at the top something like "say answer to accept call, reject to reject call"?
No is there a setting im missing
Make sure voice command is on in settings, and make sure you don't have the phone vibrate at all in call settings. Just melody, no vibrate.
Solved! Thanks.. even smart people do stupid shhhhhhh..... lok
Glad to hear you got it working! I didn't figure it out for a while either, lol.
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.
