It should work by default, maybe check to see if you have internet calling enabled... if you do then you would be using a data connection for your calls, if you get a call come through while during a data connection there is a setting to send it to voicemail... I don't know if that helps at all but other than that I am at a loss as well.

Tethering and Phone Calls

Another thread about tethering...
I'm curious if anyone does it as much as I do...
Anyway here's my problem. It seems as if when I use Internet Sharing...any phone calls I get, I would miss without notification. And when I get the call, it doesn't go straight to voicemail...it will ring a few times and then voicemail will popup.
I know the nature of GPRS and Phone calls not working together at the same time...but is there a way for me to be notified of a phone call during Internet Sharing? Even if it means I would get disconnected...I'd rather not miss my phone calls.
right now i use it alot at home. what i do is set my phone to forward calls to home phone while i'm using internet sharing. But for some reason i cant use the first option under call forwarding. the other remaining options i set to a phone number and the time span to 5 seconds.
Ahh call forwarding...good idea...but is that my only option available right now?

This doesn't sound like it would have anything to do with your phone at all it would have everything to do with your service provider. I would call them and question them if this happens and ask them to stop it from happening.

Not Receiving Incoming Calls

So for some reason, my Evo just stopped receiving incoming calls. I can make calls fine, but when someone calls me, my phone doesn't ring. I tried using my land line to call my phone and it rings 4-5 times and goes to voicemail. However, the phone never rings at all. I'm not sure what the problem can be and how to resolve this issue. This just started happening today.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
edit:sorry

Thanks for the suggestion.
I called sprint and got it fixed. Had to restore everything by doing ##3282# and entering MSL and restoring the data profile.
Are you on 3G only? I've had similar problems. I think what happens is that the phone gives priority to certain data activity (like account syncs) over voice (and SMS). And depending on what you're syncing and what kind of speeds you're getting then it could block you from getting calls for several minutes at a time. I use the hotspot a lot and I basically can't receive calls or SMS when I'm on 3G using the hotspot.
Try turning off all account syncing stuff (or go on wifi) and then try calling your phone. See if the calls go through. That's not a fix, really. Just a way to figure out what the problem is.
If this is your problem then one kind of lame work around is to go to Settings->Call and switch the voicemail provider over to google voice. This way your calls will automatically roll over to google voice and from there you can set it up to fwd calls to either your landline or gchat or something. Also, you'll at least get missed call notifications. I haven't figured out a way to handle SMS though. I routinely get them delayed by at least 10 minutes. I've just been telling people to text me on google voice. But that's a pain.

Calls dont go to voicemail they get disconnected - HELP!

I am running Synergy with Device 003. This is my problem. Over half of my calls, if I don't answer the phone, do not go to voice mail, they just get disconnected. If I turn my phone OFF and call the phone I get the same result, sometimes it goes to voice mail sometimes it just disconnects.
I have contacted sprint and they reset my voice mail. Same problem, they claim it's a hardware issue which it can't be hardware or Rom issue if it happens when the phone is off. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Just had this happen to a customer just yesterday. Their HTC Shift would direct the call to voicemail when the call was declined, but when ignored/missed the call would go through intermittently. When it did not make it to voicemail, all we got was a disconnect/fast busy tone.
Updated PRL & Profile
Reset NAI values via ##SCRTN#
Had the account/device refreshed via Sprint customer care
Ordered new hardware
I tried to explain to the care rep that the phone could be turned off and the call should be directed to voicemail. "Phone designates when/where the call goes", I said, if the phone is off, what does the network do? "We recommend a new phone for the customer".
I've done all of that also. So how can it be the hardware, it doesn't make sense if you can turn the phone off and it happens.
The call forwarding settings on sprints side could be corrupt. Call them and ask them to check check ESM for call forwarding default, no answer and default. Sometimes this tool is overlooked by reps.

Thanks for the replies everyone. So 2 hours on the phone with tech support yesterday. They checked all the forwarding in fact took my voicemail out of the system and re added it. Same problem, most calls don't make it to voicemail and it takes several people multiple calls just to get my phone to ring. I will borrow someones sprint phone tomorrow and change it to my number and see if that helps. I still believe it must be a network issue.

Changing hardware to thay other than Android would be beneficial. 1) would definitely prove hardware/network issue B) if the 2ndary phone's voicemail works, and it's a different OS(even basic) you change what server voicemail goes to. If it doesn't there's more to be had on your issue
Either way, switch back and test.

Make sure that you use a sprint phone that has visual voicemail. If you don't it will provision you on the other voicemail server and taint your results.
I honestly believe you need to to call sprint back and have them open a ctms ticket for your issue. This is something that they should have done during your first call.

Isn't that something you have to manage with your provider? Your phone will unlikely be monitoring someone elses phone network availability and thus polling constantly to the other number. I know some providers give you these possibilities (at least I had it once here in the Netherlands) by pressing a number and then hang up and then a call is buing set up between you and the other person as soon as he is available.
Or do you meen something else?

Am still searching too ... I know that no nexus or iPhone have this feature thus its coded into some Roms I used before but I was looking for a mod or something that can configure this easily without flashing a full ROM
Hello ,
No provider issues , on galaxy S3 short 1 sec notification. But u have to glance into the display for that.
Is there no app that can enable a sound notification also on Anrdoid for calling somebody who is already in a call
so we can detect that we are in call waiting ??
Thank you
