[Q] Hanging Up on Call Waiting

If you are on the phone and get a 2nd call on call waiting you can answer it and the phone will automatically put the first call on hold. Say you tell the 2nd caller you will call them back and then want to switch back to 1st call. If you press "End" it hangs up on both callers. If you press "Menu" there is an option to "Hang up all calls" or something similar which again does the same thing I don't want. I can't find a way to just hang up on ONE call. Is this a bug or am I just missing something?

Ok, so no one uses the phone feature of the EVO? No one has ever had a call come though on call waiting?
Can anyone just help me verify whether this problem is just my own or happens for everyone?

Press talk to switch back
You can't hang up on the held caller only

Thanks for the reply. I don't want to hang up on the held caller, but I want to hang up on the active caller. Every other HTC phone I've used in the last 5 years will hang up on the active caller and then switch you back to the held caller. Did they really mean for it to hang up on both at once? Does anyone else's phone do this?

My understanding is that this is some limitation of CDMA. All my sprint/verizon phones have had this same issue.

Every Sprint phone I've had has been this way. I think it is an issue with their network and not the phone itself. There is no way to hang up on just one of the callers.

Thanks everyone. The carrier is the problem then. I was with AT&T before this phone and never had Sprint before. Not a huge fan, but its ok.

That is really annoying because I'm constantly hanging up on my friends when my girlfriend decides to call and tell me some lame story that happened to her.

Cool, Thanks for the info guys. I thought my Evo was retarded or something.

Got the same problem here on my evo also had three problem on my hero...
Question though will it burn up minutes with both calls sitting there?
Ive had where I was done with one call and switched back to thee one that was on hold the whole time just to heat their voice mail giving me options

[Q] Call muted when there's another incoming call

After 30 minutes of going through posts in this forum trying to look for a solution, and apparently I couldn't find what I was looking for, I've decided to create this post.
Something really weird started happening to my arc recently. Whenever there's an incoming call (call waiting) while I'm talking on the phone, everything gets muted immediately. I cannot hear the other party, and vice versa. Even though I answer the call waiting call, we couldn't hear each other at all. I had to reject the call waiting call in order to be "connected" with the current call again. At first I thought it was some carrier, reception issues, but it's not. The bars were full and I've tried restarting the phone, but it didn't help. I was wondering if anyone has the same issue after upgrading to 2.3.3 and how did you fix this? I didn't notice anything like this before I upgraded. Any help is appreciated!

Do you have the Viber app installed? I saw somewhere that some phones react like this because of Viber.

Sorry I don't seem to have noticed that either and I recieved a call waiting bleep while I was on a call just yesterday

I can confirm its the Viber app, I just uninstalled it and the problem is gone!

Yes, I can confirm this as well, but the problem is fixed on the latest version of Viber. Happy with regular call and Viber now. Thanks to everyone who tried to help

stop phone from telling me who sent message

all of the sudden while using go sms pro, when i get a text it does the alert sound but then tells me the name of the person that sent the text? Why does it do this and how do I get it to stop because it is annoying. I installed box today, and updated grooveshark...Those are the only two new things to happen on the phone today before it started doing this.

ah im an idiot

Nexus 5x goes silent by itself.

My phone goes silent by itself
And by silent I mean the volume is all the way up, but the bell sign has a cross on it...
So I don't hear incoming calls or messages.
I don't understand how this option even works because there is no way of manually doing It that I figured out.
Need help.
It happens in two nexus 5x i have and on the old nexus 5
System in 6.0.1

The widget on the lower right corner is something I just installed a few days ago trying to fix the problem, but it didn't and it is not the cause of the problem of course.

Repeated Double beeps during calls?

When making calls with this phone I get a quick double beep during any phone call I make - I thought it was a minute minder type of thing but it's not occuring at the minute mark, though at apparently regular intervals. Anyone else have this? It's driving me nuts!

I've noticed this as well, also while streaming music...I think it's when the phone bounces between LTE and Hspa?

It's a text notification. I had the same problem, took me a while to realize what it was.

I have same problem with beep but no any text notification pops up.

It is all notifications. FB, text, whatsapp, all of them.

What do you mean?

I noticed this to but on my LG watch sport. I thought it might be because of me running the beta. Normally it means I'm getting a notification but I'm not getting anything. Weird!

Every time your phone gets a notification while you are on a call you will get the 2 beeps. Hopefully they give us the option to turn this off soon.

Oh snap! That's what this is?! What an idiotic "feature". Thank you for sharing this discovery - I was worried that I was missing a minute minder setting somewhere or my calls were being recorded or something, though unlikely.
