[Q] Incoming Call Replacement Application?(Samsung Vibrant)

I tried Incoming Call Plus Beta, and it was horrible, it would mix my contacts up when I was receiving calls. Is there another Incoming call app available? Because I am looking for something sort of like the iPhone when answering phone calls, instead of sliding left or right to answer the phone, because for some reason I sometimes do not answer the phone call because I do not slide/unlock the phone fast enough to answer, I want to be able to just hit answer, or end call/ignore, one button, any suggestions?

Try using Fullscreen Caller ID, it displays a full screen picture along with 'Answer' and 'Cancel' to replace the Sliding OPtioin of Samsung Vibrant

Not happy
Anything else ?
What you mention doesn't have the level of polish I am looking for.

Incoming call plus beta, available from the market.

I'm not sure what you mean about the first question, but I'll attempt to answer both. I don't believe there's an app that tells you when someone is on the phone, but sometimes (depending on carrier) there will be a beep after each ring that signifies the person you want to call is already on the phone. The other indication is a busy signal, your phone will hang up almost immediately after receiving it.
I believe almost all call rejection apps have the option to send texts to the caller once it has been declined. Search the market for 'call rejection' and download whichever one that doesn't require root.

alert/buzz when someone you dial picks up?

i was using CM7 on my LG thrill and they have a neat feature that when the other end of a phone call picks up, the phone will vibrate letting you know so you don't have to put the phone to your ear when it's just ringing the other party's phone. Is there a way to get this feature in my stock rom?

That's a feature of cm7 and any of the cm7 based roms for the skyrocket have it. As for the stock rom, it does have an audible tone when the call connects, but no idea how to change it to a buzz.

I found the option in settings > Call > Call alert
- theDXT

DXT ftw. Yup.

awesome! Thanks!

So I found out that 'Call Alert' option is for something different, it alerts me when the other side starts ringing - Not when the other side has picked up. Anyone other ideas how I can implement the CM7 buzz on pick up?

I have had it activated on mine since this thread and it works for me, though it's not very noticeable.

[Q] Can't "swap" to incoming call

I am running a stock (VRBMA2) rooted TW ROM. When I receive a call while I am on a call a tab appears that will "pull up" allowing me to reject the call with a variety of messages (I'm away, etc.) but no way to answer the 2nd call without terminating the 1st call. Others I have spoken to with the same phone say for them a "swap" option appears. Am I missing something?
Thanks for any help.

[Q] Lost Incoming Call default settings - now Phone rings - but cant answer.

ok this is a weird problem
my own fault
phone is the OnePlus one obviously.
have been having ongoing small problem with the dialer, as i use DW dialer.
sometimes when i went to make an outgoing call the stock dialer would also load and i would have to push the call button twice.
small problem but annoying.
so i went into the settings>apps>phone
and cleared the phone setting >launch by default.
this has fixed the outgoing calls problem
however now when i have incoming calls it doesnt bring up the window to let me answer them. the phone kind of hangs while the incoming call is ringing.
i can get back to the home screen. but there is no way to answer the call.
so i need a way to reassign the incoming calls to the phone.
i dont get any notification on the phone itself. just the ringing phone.
there is no way at all to answer the call - cant swipe down.
the only thing i can do is wait for the call to end. then see who is in my missed calls and ring them back.
please help
cheers

I've been having this problem for a few days now. Phone rings but no UI for me to answer the phone call. Any solution to this yet? Thanks.

U have to tell which ROM u r using. There should be some option in settings for accidental phone wake up (Something like that), you have to disable that. Search in the settings.

I have updated to 5.1.1 but problem is its not showing the name when incoming call....only showing first letter of the name how can we find who is calling

I've just solved this problem on my phone - I'd blocked notifications from Dialler:
Settings --> App Notifications --> Dialler --> Deselect Block

Man!! This is a lifesaver. How come this solution is not available elsewhere. Thanks a lot!!!!
