Is it possible to stop the phone from pausing music when a call is recieved? If the ringer volume is set to 0 then the music just pauses for the duration of the ringing then resumes. I work at a club and I use slacker radio for the first hour and its kind of annoying to have random pauses if I get a call -- and I obviously cant use airplane mode.
Maybe in the Media player settings... i thinkt there is an option
What if you set all calls to automatically go to voicemail during that hour where you don't want to talk to them anyways?

Thats fine with me, how do you do that?
bump...anyone know how to send all calls directly to voicemail?
I found the setting to forward my calls to other numbers....but id rather not my friends be getting all my calls for me haha
Do you have wifi available?
If you do you could first enable airplane mode and then enable wifi.
Your phone will then be disconnected from the cell network but have a working wifi connection.
(haven't tested this on my nexus but it worked on my hero)
The wifi there is not as solid of a connection at my 3G and I dont know if I trust it....I guess I can just set my phone to forward all numbers to like 9999999 or something haha...Kinda sucks there isnt an option to forward all calls to voicemail though...
could have sworn i saw an option in there to forward to voicemail.
you could set your forward number as your voicemail number.. should work the same I would think
*edit* oh and yes.. i have tried the wifi after airplane mode trick and it works just fine on the nexus.

i know im not the only person that keeps missing calls, i have alot of friends call me and they say the calls go through but im dont recieve them, 4 calls and out of 4 i recieve prolly 2....is there a fix for this? or its a windows problem or is it sprints mogul problem?
yeah i have the same problem, but i think it's because of the way i have it configured with a bunch of little bells and whistles
I believe if you call your Mobile Wireless Provider and ask them the change the number of rings before going to Voicemail ie, instead 3 rings to 5 rings you may catch more of your phone calls altho it doesn't speed up your phone but give your phone more time to turn on and ring.
or you can change it yourself

I dont think you can. I assume what he is talking about is the time it takes the cellular system to decide your phone is not on the network and roll it to vm.
I want to stopp my HD to start outgoings calls because in the last weeks many times some clicks on buttons started calls without my consent. Is there a way to bar all outgoing calls but to keep gprs data connection active?
keylock your phone when its in your pocket? (hold the end key for like 5 sec)
I do not want to lock the phone just outgoing calls. E. g. I want to be sure that there a no calls starting while I am watching a video on my HD.

Try SPB Phone Suite, it can do the trick!
If you don't need any other connections like internet, Wifi, Bluetooth or GPS etc. you could also just put the phone in airplane mode (or turn the phone connection off) while you watch your video. Of course, you won't be able to receive any calls either. But - it's just a thought.
By the way, how do you accidentally call while watching a video? I have never accidentally called (except when in the dial pad with list of recent calls above it). But while watching a video??
You can try MagiCall.
I use it for exactly the same reason.
I searched around and was unable to find an answer to this.
When listening to streaming radio either through Last.fm or streamfurious I can not receive phone calls? If anyone calls me it goes directly to voice mail. As soon as I stop internet radio calls come through again.
Does anyone know of a way to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

If your not on 3G then it is because you are using all of your 2G service. If you use 3G then you can use it for data and internet and 2G for texts and calls.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
Bleh, wrong thread. Delete plz!

Not knowing exactly how our phones carry the signal for internet and voice calls that seems like a logical answer to me. Huge drag for me though I love turning on internet radio in the car and piping it through my system. Even on 2g it sounds and streams great. But the lack of not receiving calls I suppose I will have to stop that habit lol. Who knows when 3g will roll out in my area...
oh well. Thanks for the info.
Doug
It's true that it's impossible to use data and voice at the same time on 2g, but it's the app that should pauze itself for an incoming call. Or Android should have been able to do this! Atleast that was the case with my last phone. While checking something on internet, call display appeared on incoming calls and browser disappeared. Call ends, browser reappears.

Well maybe it is something that just has to be change with the current internet music streaming software. I have tried three different ones and they all do this so it doesn't look good for a pause feature when a call comes through.
I have no idea how hard that would be to add to the current software. I suppose if you had 3g you wouldn't worry about this but as we all know, T-Mobiles 3g coverage is lacking.

When Im listening to my Pandora internet radio from my G1 in the car, the worst thing I hate is when someone calls me! It stops the music, and sometimes it will start back up right after the call ends, but sometimes it hangs and doesn't want to reload, and I hate being interrupted in the middle of a good song, is there anyway an app can be created that you can turn on (preferably with a widget) that sends everybody's call to the voicemail? Then when im done with the internet radio, I can turn calls back on? I know that it can be done by using call forwarding from settings, but that's too much, I just want a one click app that can do it right away, besides Im on a month to month plan right now (called Flexpay with T-mobile) and call forwarding doesn't work with it.
if one already exists please share...thanks.

That would turn off all wireless connection and kill his internet radio..
Well its quite simple to come up with a convenient way to forward the calls straight to VM and deactivate that mode after you are done listening to Pandora.
Tmobile has a series of star and pound codes that allow quick configuration of call forwarding/cancelling call forwarding. You could use the shortcuts to create a one click dial for two different numbers. One to enable the mode "Straight to VM" and one to disable this mode.
This may not be what you are looking for but is definitely an easier way to help you out.
This is your activating number if you are using Tmobile VM system:
**21*18056377249# (Note some may provide the same number except with a "3" where the "9" is at the end, they both should work)
This is your deactivating number:
## 21#
***SORRY! I did not realize you were Flexpay until just now. This would only work for Postpaid accounts. Tmobile just recently started the ability of letting Flexpay customers convert their accounts into postpaid. Your account may or may not qualify to do this and there is no extra charge of course to convert. Contact customer care to check and see if you would be eligible.
Hope this helps.

Call Blocker - Free - you might here it ring once but after it sends the calls directly to voicemail.
set the option to Block Phone numbers or something like that.

Only problem if it rings once first is that would stop the music for the OP. But thanks I didn't know there was an app like this!
maybe try this

this will do right here my friend, Thank's so much!!! gosh...how come I couldn't find this, I been surfing the market back to front, oh well, I knew someone would come through.
Edit: only allows wifi, can't get my edge/2g/3g services,....but ah well that'll do for now, I've found that Pandora loads much quicker on wifi anyway, with my extended battery I can run wifi all day, only thing is Im constantly connecting to the closest signals in range, anyway I could set up unlimited wifi access with T-mobile?
Anybody else having issues with T-Mobile Wi-Fi Calling? Mine connects after a reboot, stays connected, but after a while it disconnects from WiFi calling and more often than not it doesn't want to re-connect again until I reboot the phone.
I suspect it may have something to do with the Doze mode in Android M, but I'm not sure. It feels like once it gets in doze mode it doesn't want to connect to Wi-Fi calling again.
Any known ways to force it to reconnect to WiFi calling, without rebooting?
Not sure what's happening, but I'm not receiving incoming phone calls when connected to WiFi calling. I've turned it off at home (have decent enough voice service) for the time being.

I've seen that too, it's definitely flaky.
Came here just to get more info on this issue. Flaky on mine as well. I'm on T-Mobile. Sometimes users will hear me well, sometimes they cannot. It's typically most flaky when I'm right on the cusp of getting a tower signal. I'll receive a WiFi call and all will sound fine, but as soon as I move close to a window the call quality drops and users on the other end can barely make out what I'm saying. Almost like it has a hard time deciding between WiFi or the cell tower.

Do you have it set to prefer wifi calling?
First day in office tomorrow on a 6p, will test this.

I've had it set to both at different times in the past few weeks. Right now it's set to prefer WiFi because I have poor to non-existant celluar coverage indoors (both at work and home). My wife's old LG G2 has flawless WiFi calling at home.
I have mine set to "Wi-Fi Preferred". It's worked without any problems that I know of both at home and at work, for both calling and text messaging.

This has also been my experience, Connects instantly and stays connected. This is also the first phone I have had that actually hands off to mobile network when leaving a WiFi area without dropping the call. The galaxy s6 advertised this but never once did it work. I get pretty good service at my house and honestly didn't know that I would be able to use WiFi calling when I bought my 6p. Pleasantly surprised.
After a few days, text messages won't send. I get an error -1 code. Had to turn off Wifi=preferred.

See whether this helps:
Dial *#*#4636#*#* as a "normal" call from the stock phone dialer
You should see a menu
Tap Phone information
Scroll down
Tap "Turn ON SMS over IMS" button (make sure that after the button actually says "Turn OFF SMS over IMS" -- this means it's currently ON)
Based on info from this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Nexus5/comments/1vahlr/fyi_if_youre_on_tmobile_your_sms_is_sent/
I would not touch any other settings in that menu and if it doesn't help, you should probably revert it back.
Now I'm not sure where these settings are persisted and if they get reverted back when a new radio is flashed for example. Does anyone have more info?
It works but I've found that it causes my phone to stay awake, so I've turned it off. I'd rather lose 1-3% overnight and not 8-10%.

Gave it a try and re enabled wifi calling preferred. I'll post an update, but the error usually takes a few days before showing up.
My Wi-Fi calling was working fine, then I flashed the update to 6.0.1 and it doesn't work at all. It's enabled in settings, strong WiFi signal, but it never indicates Wi-Fi calling.
I had the opposite experience, I updated to 6.0.1 and now WiFi Calling is a lot more reliable than before. Still not perfect, but much better.
