I know others have talked about this, having the phone face down to mute it which does not work on my phone but all i really want is the "mute ring" button under the "answer"\"reject" buttons to work. right now when i press it, it does nothing. any thoughts?
can you provide more details such as your rom version?
usually you should be able to mute a call by pressing the lower volume key

well i figured out the problem... it was my 3rd party ringtone software RINGO Mobile. If anyone know of a good 3rd party software that does ringtones and text messages that works with the mute ring please let me know via PM. thanks all for the help
the tweaks for face down muting are here: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=903
If your ROM is somehow stripped on the ability to mute a ring they won't help but it's probably worth a shot

Does this happen to any one or is it just me?
I have an ordinary case for my Touch Pro. Almost 10 out of 10 times when the phone rings and I reach out to my phone, try to take it out - boom - the call becomes a missed call. I guess what is happening here is that once the phone rings, the screen is active and either your finger accidentally touches the volume key or any other key or even the screen, it makes it a missed call. It is very annoying and how to avoid this????
Thanks

there is a key disabler cab look for it
There are many options how to disable the touchscreen.
There was a topic not long ago about this.
Answerkey Disabler
PocketShield (I currently use this one)
TouchProLock
Sensorlock
Throttlelock
S2U2 (not recommended for TP, drains the battery for unknown reason)
All these deal with locking the TP.
Sorry for not posting links but I don't have much time. All of them are available on XDA though.
You do have the option of extending the time it takes for a call to go to voice mail, it can be extended up to 30 seconds. The option is under settings > phone > Services > Call Forwarding
There is also a lot of lag on between the time the caller's phone is ringing and you get a ring on the Fuze
I guess this is not because of the keys. Just keep the phone in front of you and try to call your phone and see your self, first you will see the incoming call indicator light, and after some time you will start hearing the ring tone. Now by the time you take the phone from the case - it's a miss call. I tried to search all over XDA but didn't find a way to start ringing immediately when call comes, I read some where that this is due to the dialer skin and by using default WM dialer this can be fixed. I didn't try this.

I think he was talking about the touchscreen being active on incoming calls.
If however the problem is in the delay, then the dialer skin is the key.
You have to change it to the WM default (it does work, the lag is almost gone) and have the ringtone in WAV format (not tested, I didn't bother to put any wavs).
if you get rid of the dialer and switch to WM
you will lose functionality including the symbol to show bluetooth being on or off
I downloaded and installed disableanswerkeys and it works fine. It took a while for me to understand the cryptic question it asks in the beginning - i get stumped if there are two negatives in a sentence So It is on and i tried and it works ok. I also downloaded sensorlock and throttlelock. Yet to try these ... will post my comments.
the lag in answering the call - i believe there is a separate thread about that, right?
Thanks for the help

Hi all,
Would like to know if there is any application for WM6.5 which can let me switch the Ring Type quickly instead of going deep into the Settings menu to change it?
My problem is normally I want to change the Ring Type to Ringtone + Vibrate, and sometimes to Ringtone Only (without Vibrate). The current setting available on my HD2 when pressing the Volumn Button is only either Enable Ringtone, Silent All or Enable Vibrate (without Ringtone).
If anyone know how to do it please share your ideas.
Thanks!!

Thanks for your recommendation. But I forgot to mentioned that I'm using Energy ROM with HTC Sense currently. I knew this application before, but feel don't like it to overwrite my Today's Theme as I still like the HTC Sense Theme very much.
What I'm looking for is maybe just an application which I can put it as shortcut on my screen. When run the application can switch the Ring Type directly.
Hi guys, for my x10 2.1 with z4root,
is there an app that puts phone to silent when you put ur phone upside down when you enter into a work meeting or when the phone rings during a work meeting?
I know the iphone has it but i dont know the name of the app.
i apologise if this has been discussed before.
Also some users are able to customize there signature at the bottom with previous phones they had and info on their current phone...how do i do that on my profile here on xda?
Yes, try Flip Silent!

Not sure about an app, but the MIUI rom has both these features
Is the https://market.android.com/details?id=org.failedprojects.flip4silence one you are looking for?)
Just turn off the sound in the lockscreen before your meeting starts...
Or Press Volume Button when someone calls to mute
thanx mate

I'm having trouble with my speakerphone. It works fine if I turn it on touching the screen while calling but that's not the problem. The problem is doing it without touching the phone. Tried doing it in different ways and always failed:
1. Tasker can't control my speakerphone. Tried automating a call so that was always on speakerphone ON, Didnt work.
I know it's something wrong with the phone since all other Tasker automated profiles are working fine.
2. Another symptom: Wear speaker (which is an app for Android Wear that does exactly that - turning speaker ON automatically when answering a call) also doesn't work.
3. And another thing: Voice answering also doesn't work. Call rings, but neither "answer call" nor "reject call" voice command do a thing. At one time that DID work, but ONLY when phone wasn't in silent mode - when the call ringing was silent or on vibrate it would not work. So one day I let it ring on silent and enter quick toggles (while silently "ringing") and turned on sound hoping it would than accept voice commands( answer or reject), but I did exactly the opposite. Since than it doesn't work AT ALL (silent, vibrate or not).
Edit: In safe mode "accept call" works, but again, only when not in silent mode
Non rooted Huawei Mate 9. Emui 5.0. Anroid 7.0
Hope I made myself clear. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks
Trie Tasker too, my phone is rooted. Tasker works but not with speakerphone.
And I just noticed I cant boot into safemode. Holding volume down while booting did nothing. Tried 5 or 6 times.
Edit: I did manage to enter safemode. The trick is to wait untill the blue screen animation to press volume down, not sooner
Nobody can help me? I would be extremely happy if somebody could just confirm that Tasker Action: Speakerphone ON works or doesn't work on their Huawei Mate 9.
Please!!! Anybody?!? ;(
I confirmed, it does NOT work!

That is extremely disappointing. Is that something Huawei is aware of? Do they intend to fix this. It's incredibly stupid to have to touch the phone to enable speakerphone. If I have to touch it than I may as well bring it to my ear, I dont get it. I can imagine countless scenarios where for me, this is a must have feature. All the other phones I had in the past were able to work that way, I may have to change phones if I dont find a workaround of some kind
I really have no idea. In my wonderful world this had to be a feature since the beginning of calling phones smart. Cant imagine why this isnt state of the art.
Everything working fine for me.
Did you try to set up this in settings?
The settings option only disables speakerphone when putting phone to the head. What we are looking for is the automatic activation of the speaker.
Yes, automatic activation of speaker when you answer the call with "answer the call" , voice comand

Hello guys, iam an Pixel 2 XL owner since 3 weeks. After the first usage of my phone i get a call and i must see that the top speaker isn't making any noise during incoming call and alarm-clock.
So after that i start developing and application which can workaround this problem. Iam an hobby programmer from germany and ich want to show you my application:
My application will work with the top speaker. During an incoming call and alarm-clock my application will enable the top speaker. If you accept the call and activate the "Freisprech-Funktion", i do'nt know how it's called in englisch, the top speaker will work too.
I give my best to include an englisch translation. So iam sorry for this translation but i hope you can understand what i mean.
http s://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.loudspeaker
That would probably be "hands-free" in English. Did you post this in the non-XL section on purpose?
I am looking for an application that can check both microphones separatly, if anyone knows an app that can do this I would be grateful to know.
Just tested and it seems to work for ringtones for standard (non-xl) version of Pixel 2. Thank you, this is something I was looking for
To confirm, app works perfectly fine but there is few things that need improvement: App plays ringtones and alarms as media so if media is muted ringtone or alarm won't sound at all. There would have to be mechanism implemented to check ringer volume and set media volume to the same level otherwise phone ringtone volume setting is completely disregarded
OK, i try to check the ringer volume and set the media volume to the same Level.
Thanks for your reply.
Thanks for the english word "hands-free".
Iam from germany
Absolutely brilliant idea ?
After latest update the volume of your main ringtone... Fantastic.
Your contacts ringtone are equally as good!
Well done.
Can anyone please send me the link of this app?

Hey great fix! But I did just notice a bit of a bug, when adding a ringtone to your contacts it adds the phone number all wrong IDK if it's adding the phone number for your region
EXAMPLE : 1234/56-78-90 (this is how the app adds them)
123-456-7890 (this is the way I need the phone numbers to be added)
IDK if there's a fix or an update.
Also not to nitpick but it'd be great if there was an option for the NOTIFICATIONS tones as well.
