Call Settings - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

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.

miss calls while in-call

does anyone experience similar problems? when im in a call, any phone calls that i get automatically become missed calls for me.. sometimes if they call a second time, it'll go through and i'll get it, but i seem to always miss the first call...
im also wondering if this is an att issue or my phoneissue. also, im flashed to energy rom..
anybody? im missing a lot of my calls this way! nobody else using att or energy rom has this problem? ALL call waiting calls come through? :"(
i got the same prob. no audible call waiting notification, the phone shows incoming call, but no audible.
I have to set mine to notify me of second call. Go to phone then to services I think then to call waiting and have it turned on by provider.

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?

[Q] Is there any way to have the phone notify me when another call comes in?

If I'm on a call, the Epic doesn't alert me if I have another incoming call. Out of sheer luck, if I happen to have the phone away from my face, I can see another call coming in. However, I don't have any audible notification or vibration. Is there any setting to change this?
Also, say for example you're calling someone. You get their voicemail and start leaving them a message. They immediately call you back. You switch to their incoming call. After you're on the new incoming call and if you try to hang up on the voicemail that's on hold, the entire call is terminated. Anyone else getting this error?
Is your phone normally on silent? It should give you an audible beep.
Nope, not on silent. However, I am running Froyo with the DK28 modem. Perhaps that's the culprit?
I'm on 2.2 also and I don't have that issue. Maybe reflash?

incoming calls getting canceled

Hey guys something weird is happening that I've never seen before, When someone tries to call me my phone doesn't ring. When I look at the logs i can see the person that tried to call with a blue circle with a A next to their number. when I click on it it says canceled and the time. I don't have call block on so I don't know what's going on. I can make calls just fine but for some reason my incoming calls are getting canceled without my knowledge or the phone ringing. I'm running stock 4.1.1....any thoughts

Strange call waiting behavoir after upgrade to 11

Standard phone no customisations.
Really strange behaviour after recently upgrading to Android 11
If someone calls me and I answer, then after abut two minutes, while still on the phone, I get the call waiting tone.
When I look at the phone it is always the same person that I am talking to calling me again, even though I am still connected to them.
There is no way of getting rid of this second call, the only solution is to reboot the phone.
If I answer the second call the caller hears the "please hold message" and the call goes silent and a reboot is the only way out of it.
Anyone else seen anything like this, I have turned of "call waiting notification" to see if it stops.
