What is the benefit of accepting a call with the Moto 360?
Lets say my phone is in my pocket book, and a call comes in.
My watch buzzes and lets me know a call is coming in. I accept the call, and then I try to get into my pocketbook, find, my phone and speak before the person on the other end hangs up???

this happened to me, though im always using a bluetooth headset aswell so, everytime I answer the call using the moto360, it pops up in my ears the person who is calling, so pretty awesome. no need to check the phone who's calling

O.K. but wouldn't it be great if the Moto 360 could have answered the call directly. It already has the Mic. It is just missing the speaker I think.
Maybe the next version (Moto 720) will have that!!! lol

God I hope not..we will be back to the Nextel days.
I don't use it when my phone is in my pocket. I look at my wrist to see who it is though and to decline it if I choose. If I happen to have a corded earbuds with mic in, I'll use my watch to answer and I use it in my car as well. For me its a situational feature.

Hi guys,
Since a few days, for some reason my phone automatically turns on the speaker when I either make a phone call or am being called. I tried turning off the car mode auto-launch and I downloaded a free app called Car Mode which also didn't work.
I also searched some other forums, it seems that this is a common issue on the normal Desire. Some people state it's a hardware related problem, others say it's software related.
Does anyone know what's happening here?
Thanks
When your phone is on call, and you flip your phone over face down, the speaker would activate. Please use the search before posting for god sake.

I have tried during call a few times but it did not switch to speaker mode.....why ?
audio defaults to speaker
this has just started happening for me too... hence coming across your post...
feel like a **** sometimes when I pickup my phone and put it to my ear to start talking and the voice blasts out the speaker instead
Did you find a solution?? I'll post back here if I find a solution....
On another note.... thanks for the help LittleJerc...

solution...for me anyway
I feel like a little bit of a LitteJerc now myself... I just restarted my phone and phone calls dont automatically go through the loud speaker anymore... why didnt I try that before.... the classic 'have you turned it off and on again'.....
See if that works for you!!??

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 ?
curious to see if anyone has heard any sound coming from their Moto 360? I ask b/c I have not heard anything aside from the vibration when receiving a text/e-mail, and I see a "mute" option when pulling down.
thanks!

Good question, maybe the mute is for when you have bluetooth headset or to mute notifications?

It has no speaker, so it makes no sound. The mute option keeps notifications from showing on your watch screen.

As above. It has no speaker. Muting hides the cards you see on your watch so you always see the clock face unless you tap or swipe up.
thanks for the responses all - I guess if I wanted to mute the cards, then I can do so via the app on my phone. just thought that if you show a picture of a bell, that usually means a sound of some sort.
i guess it's interesting that the watch has a mic, but no speaker.

Well it vibrates, so you dont need a speaker, and since it's tied to your phone your phone could always make the sound. You wouldnt want them both beeping would you?
Well, I don't keep my phone on me at all times. I often times leave outside my bedroom.

right - plus it's not unprecedented to have watches emit sound.
Hi guys,
I noticed that some days I can only reject the call and not to accept it.
maybe since I updated my lg g3 a lollipop but not sure. is this normal? what can I do?
I've not toyed with using it to answer, I've only rejected but it would make sense to me that if you have a Bluetooth headset attached, then the answer should appear. If you don't, then only reject should appear. I don't know if that's how it works but seems most logical. I don't understand the necessity to have the ability to answer on the 360 when you're gonna have to pick up the phone anyway?

Imagine you are driving. Phone is connected to Bluetooth in your car. Phone is also connected to your moto on the wrist. You get a call and moto360 vibrates and then you would like to answer it. I don't want to fiddle around to pick up the phone. I should be able to swipe on moto to answer the call.
You used to be able to do this.
Since I've upgraded to Lollipop it has not worked. I'm not sure if it's Lollipop or the Android Wear upgrade that has disabled it.

Just wanted to let you know that I too have not been able to answer ANY calls since my Nexus 5 upgraded (OTA) to Lollipop. I have seen a scattering of similar messages but I guess not enough 360's with Lollipop yet to make a dent. I can decline calls but definitely no way to answer (The green "blob") is not shown
Fingers crossed for update soon!

if your phone is connected to the bluetooth of your car, then your car speaker will ring and display the call with an option to answer or reject. usually there is a button on the steering wheel to do exactly that...don't even need to bother swiping the watch

Then AW shouldn't even give an option to pickup for reject on the watch as you can answer and reject using the steering wheel buttons . AW should give answer/reject option or nothing altogether.
I've set it up in a way that any inbound call is accepted automatically after x seconds (being the time to reject it manually).
Issue is with lollipop... Never had the issue on my Note 2 with touchwiz roms... Had this issue on my phone with CM12 lollipop rom

Another big problem with voice call in 1.4 release. In I enable voice call on watch, I can't make voice call with Viber, because sound always goes through watch. Only i can't change to phone loud speaker, but not for ear-speaker. I don't know does other app's like skype has same problem, but I think can.

I'm not sure if it's the same thing but what I find to be frustrating is with the gear 2 I could go back and forth. But with this it's one or the other. If I initiate the call with the watch it disconnects the bluetooth call audio on my phone and then I have to manually reconnect them. but if I do this I can't have the watch answer an incoming call (when I answer using the watch it is picked up on the phone only)'
I guess what I'm saying is that with the gear 2 I can have bluetooth call audio connected to both the watch and the phone at the same time (maybe because watch and phone were both samsung). With this bluetooth audio can connect to only one device at a time..
