I was wondering if someone knows how to manage calls when you have one person on hold and you're talking to one person. There is no way to switch between calls but this was an option on the old note what happened or am I missing something? The only option I have is to merge the calls.

I think conference calls are network dependent. you make a call then call someone else and then i think you press menu key and merge calls. T mobile does not allow it.
Instead search for hullo group call which might work for you.
hope that helps.
I do conference in this way (I use HTC Legend):
- Make one normal call with the first person of the conference. Wait him to answer the call. Then:
- Click on Apps/Phone. Enter the name or number of the second person and click on "Call" (sorry if it appears a bit different in your phone, I am translating from my Spanish phone). Wait this person to answer the phone. The first call will be automatically on hold
- Now, in the bottom right corner of the screen, you will have an icon to "join in conference". Just click on il and the conference will start.
I think conferences are really useful. With Android need to do several clicks but works fine (the quality of the conference will depend of the network. Usually conference are enabled on networks because operators gets more money -they get more calls at the same time)
It should also work in a similar way if the people of the conference calls you, instead of you calling to them. But you should enable "waiting call" option on your phone network options to be warned when the second person call you.
Hope this helps.
Hi,
I would like to ask if any custom ROM has this option. If you dial someone and he is already on call, normally we used to get a notification that call on waiting. I am missing this feature from very start of Android Family.
Is any body has an idea if any custom ROM or app for that purpose.
Regards

hey developers can you guys even guid us how to do this
I suspect(and hope) that feature has been permanently removed. After all, if you call him and it tells you he is on the phone, then you know he isn't too busy to talk on the phone and that he has it in his hand and can either answer or call you back. So it invades his privacy really. What if he doesn't wanna talk to you? What's next? Phone going to tell you when someone else is declining your calls? "The person you have dialed has received your call and declined to answer at the 4th ring". To be honest, when people call me I either want them to get me, or get voicemail after 5 rings, and NOTHING ELSE.
Its not a privacy issue
Developer plz create mod for phone app that shoving outgoing call waiting notification
Samsung roms have this feature
AOSP /AOKP roms dont have this feature
so why u guys cant make this work

My Evo had a nice call blocking setup built in (may have been after I rooted but am not sure) where you had the option in the edit contact menu to block them. It would not ring through unless I was on the other line which was fine and it would push them right to voicemail.
I just got my Note 2 and have not been able to find a way to do this. It has that block call built in that will disable all calls but that is far from ideal because I would need to allow permissions for every other contact and then I would have the call block icon on the top all the time.
Any ideas? I already did a search and came up empty save for a few apps that have their own caveats.
I use Google Voice for this. I think is better than blocking on the Note 2 (dunno about the setup on your Evo) because all blocking on the Note 2 does is make it so you don't get the call. On their end they still hear it ring four times and then go to voicemail. With Google Voice if you set it to block it tells the caller that the number has been disconnected. If you set it to send to voicemail, it doesn't even ring on their end, it goes straight to voicemail.
There is also call screening. You answer the call and then press 1 to let them through or 2 to send them to voicemail. I you send them to voicemail, you can hear what they are saying and can pick up at any time. And there is setting to have unknown callers say who they are before you decide to let them through or go to voicemail.
Plus it has really cheap international calling (my Dad goes to Thailand all the time for work and I can call his Thailand number for $.03/minute (yes 3 cents). I think Sprint charges over $3/minute unless you sign up for their international plan for extra monthly, and even then it is a lot more expensive).
And you can send and receive text messages for free from any computer in the world (and it will show up as your Sprint number so long as you choose to have your Sprint number be your GV number.
And probably more I am forgetting.
And all free. Well, except international calling. You have to pay (a little bit) for that.

I hear ya on that one, I came from the Evo4G also and no you are not mistaken it was a stock option to send contact to voicemail. I too was amazed that this phone didn't have that option in the contact window/menu. As of right now unless you download a 3rd party app to setup a call blocker/blacklist that will either send to voicemail, answer+hang up, or block. Otherwise you have to do like you stated and create a block list and allow everyone but the specified contact which is just ridiculous. Cause in that instance you cannot let through people who are not on your contacts so basically if you want to block a certain contact you have to go to the market to the best of my knowledge. But I had the same issue the other morning, I had someone blowing my phone up when I was sleeping. I looked on my phone forever then went to google search and the forums, and came up with no STOCK resolutions to the issue.
Try hitting menu from the call log screen then call rejection

Hey guys.
I have an E250K note II phone (purchased from Korea). I had all sorts of problems with it
- korean apps that i couldnt remove (even after rooting)
- voicemail option (number 1 button), does not work
- OLLEH logo on bootup
- when i get a call, and reject it, it hangs up on the caller, not forward to the VM (my mobile provided reset my account 5 times, no help)
all sort of things
now i installed the Milan 3.0 ROM, and it was magic, EVERYTHING got fixed, with the exception of, receiving a call, and rejecting it
I think it is a feature in the ROM that i cannot find out a solution for
I think the Milan ROM is a chinese one, but it is way better than the stock korean one
So now, what i am looking for, is if someone calls me and i cant pickup, and i swipe the reject button, i want the caller to be able to go to voicemail, instead of hanging up on them
when i even look at the call log, it shows, "cancelled" as the call status
I am not looking for google voicemail or something like that..
i just want the basic functionality of the phone to work i guess.
so i am pretty sure there is something, a hack, or something that would allow the forward calls when busy to VM
when not available or unreachable, it takes the caller normally to VM, it is the call forward when busy is what i am having trouble with
Any help with that, i would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
wow 86 views.. and no one knows....
I seriously need help from anyone please.
Thanks
I'm interested in this too. I wasn't aware that rejected calls didn't go to voice mail until recently and that's not what I wanted to happen.
Edit:
Hmm. Maybe this depends on where the call originates from. I just tried calling my phone from Skype and call reject sent it to voicemail, but when I get a forwarded call from work it just hangs up.
Can anyone else confirm?

anyone cares to chime in and tells us something on how to fix this?
is this caused by ROM maybe?
I tried a US rom made for the 7105 models, (i didnt install the modem), and the voicemail option VANISHED, got back to the original rom i had, VM is back, but back to square one, which is hanging up on rejected calls, normal calls that is.
Hello,
I'm curious if anyone has come across a way to enable the phone to ring if a number has the correct prefix. Where I work every number has the same area code (US) and first 3 digits of the phone number, so I was wondering if there was some way to enable them to ring. I'm constantly moving around, so I have asked them to call my cell phone, but I also don't want random calls to cause my phone to ring in meetings. I tried to create a contact that had the prefix and then **** for the extension, but it hasn't worked. If there is some app or some way to enable this functionality, I would appreciate an assist with it. If not, hopefully we can get a feature request or app started.
I should mention that I have the Pixel XL on the most recent Verizon Android Oreo OTA. OPR3
Thanks for the help!
I actually would like the opposite because the majority of my spam calls come from my area code and first 3 digits of my phone number.
