How can I increase the number of phone rings during an incoming call?
I just feel that 3 rings is sometimes too short to grab your phone, open it up, and decide if you are going to answer it or not.
call your phone company, they can do it for you immediately over the phone. some have a keypad phone combination that you can use, but they vary, call the phone company make them work for the money
Try this: Settings/phone/services. If you have "call forwarding" as an option then click on that and set the time before the call is forwarded to your voicemail
Thanks guys. I'll try it right now.
I tried it under settings. The longest phone ring they have is 30 seconds. I think it it too short, so I guess I'll give them a call.
I called Cingular (USA) customer support. Sadly the longest they can offer is 30 seconds. The only way I could think of is to disable my voicemail, and that should make my EXEC ring a lot longer. But can't, I need my voicemail.
Well, it's been a while and everyone's been tweaking their universal, so, have you tried calling yourself and see how many rings it takes before your universal really rings ?
After all the tweaking, it still takes about 2 rings before my Exec actually plays the ring tone. Has anyone been able to shorten this lag time further ?
When my Jasjar is still powered On it rings while I am still hearing the 1st call tone through the receiver of the telephone I have used to call up my Jasjar.
When the Jasjar has powered itself Off, then it is no later than the mid of the 2nd call tone and most of the time just before the 2nd call tone has started playing.
By the way I have done no tweaking in this regard.
Kind regards
Same here, before the 2nd call, acceptable for me.
I am using a device flashed to Jasjar ROM 1.13.53 WWE, Radio 1.04.02 and no extended Rom installed.

Ruud
You guys seem to get the ringing quite fast
I read somewhere that having many contacts can slow down the phone and therefore increase the number of rings before the exec actually plays the ring tone. I have about 230 contacts with average of 2 tel numbers per contact. Can I ask how many contacts you guys have ?
I'm just trying to figure how to make my exec ring sooner ...
I copied the choice of ringtone directly to my Device/Windows/Rings.
so far it has been ringing almost immeidately.
I have about 100 contacts with an average of 2 telephone numbers per contact.
Regards
Gave an answer on the nr. of rings above, I have about 1.300 contacts with average 2-3 numbers, mail, address.
Calendar is sync with ALL meetings, so also between 1000-2000 entries, I do not recall. I further sync notes and files, but have no tasks.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for sharing the info guys ...
Just found something odd after some testing ... if I use the "Ringer.wav" that comes default with the Exec, it rings just before the second ring starts ... but if I select the "Fantasy.wma" (also default on Exec), the ring only starts after the second ring ... If i use the "Windows Default.wav", the ring also starts at the end of the second ring ...
It appears the more complicated the ring tone, the longer it takes to start ringing ...
mine's varied...i've been using the same ringtone and it can take anywhere from 1 ring to 6 or 7... the varying in lag times has totally lost me. i'm on an old ROM however. could be the issue?
My Dopod 900 rings after 1st call tone when it is ON and on standby mode it rings after 2nd call tone.
My Dopod 900 exactly the same.

my imate (no extended rom features whatsoever), spb pp, diary and weather, using msvc, about 20 meg ram standard boot up.
exactly on the second ring when opened up and screen active.
immediately when i called again the second time to type this email with the lid closed. i assume this is cause the phone and everything was still active cause all i did was close it which really only deactivates the screen.
on the second ring when i turned the device and closed the lid.
so in summary, and i generally dont have much of a problem in this area is at the beginning of the second ring.
I dont have memory card readers running and somebody indicated that this is also a cause of lags.
I am using Wizard with WM5.0. The phone software is the default one.
When you dial a service hotline, you normally hear the voice prompt: "English Press 1, French press 2"... How to press the 1 and send the DTMF touch tone over to the service provider? I tried press 1 but there is no DTMF tone generated?
Thanks in advance for anyone who can answer my question.
Strange - it's working (and has always worked with all the ROM's) great with my Wizard. In addition, Menu / Options /Phone / Keypad doesn't have any effect on what is sent out to the other party.
Try doing this with as many DTMF-based services as possible to find out whether it's a problem with the particular service you've called up or a generic one.
In the phone app, you should press "keypad" button to bring back the phone keys during the call to generate DTMF.
Hi, Menneisyys,
I have tried to call two different hotline. I failed to get throught the first question such as : "Press 1 for English, Press 2 for French...". It seems that these two service provider do not have problem as I can call them by my land wired phone.
Hi, micvario,
Yes, I am able to go to the Keypad. But pressing any digits does not send any thing to the hotline...
Very strange....
Hi, when you use the keypad, do digits appear on the screen and can you also hear the tones from the speaker? If so, I suspect the problem may be with the signal quality..
Hi, micvario,
Yes. The digit appear on screen and there is tone from the speaker....
ok,
1) you can call your own landline to listen if tones are really transmitted
2) check signal strenght; i guess if its zero or one bar only, you may not notice in speech but it could be a problem for tone processing at the other end... try to increase and try again..
3) if there are loud background sounds like music, traffic, this may also interfere with the tones..
Hi, micvario,
I made a mistake last time.... (Haven't try this for a few days).
When I press "1", "2".... during a call, I can't hear any DTMF tone generated.
Is mostly a hardware error or software error?
Thanks

I'm having the same problem
I'm having the same problem. Since I'm using PV4 when I press the keypad I can hear the tone, but no DTMF are sent to the other side of the line.
No DTMF during call
I'm having the same problem. I can hear the tones and the numbers are displayed but not sent across the line. So, I can't delete voice mail. HELP! I also had some one on a voice call tell me they couldn't hear the tones.
Anything further on this? I have the same problem on my desire z. Can hear the tone on my end but no recognition on the receiving end...
no matter what ringtones i use they only ring for 17 seconds is there a setting or way to alter this.
and how can i silence an incoming call. id like the option to answer the call or press a silence button so the other caller still
thinks the call is ringing and that the call has not just been rejected.
thanks

Sounds like your calls get diverted to voicemail after 20 seconds (takes approx 3 seconds for the phone to ring on an incomming call). Setting your divert can be network dependant, but if you go into phone settings, there is an option called "divert" which yoy can change. Be warned - if on vodafone or other similar networks, the network handles the call diversion. However if you change this, you may be charged for the phone diverting calls to voice mail.
To mute the phone on incomming call, simply turn the phone face down on the desk. This should mute the ringer. If this does not work, you need to install HD Tweek or similar to set this option.
yes mate your right my phone does get divertd to voicemail but i was getting 29 seconds i think it was on my nokia n95 when that was set to divert. on orange you cant set divert on or of by the phone you have to ring the network but cancel divert.
as for the silence calls on flip if i have the phone in my pocket and someone calls the flip does not work as i have no surface to lay it flt on i just tried it .
so if anyone else has no solution the only thing i can think of is
1 cancel call divert with my network and hope there is a third party software that can manage my voice mail . any recommendations ?
2 any recommendations of any software to silence calls by press of a button ?
thanks
ok i managed to get the ringtone to ring longer before it goes to voicemail .
the settings for that are acually in the phone ardsar says but how can i get the
phone to silince callls without turning the phone over .
im looking for a press of a button method.
thanks
Press one of the volume buttons when your phone is ringing
blimey so easy eh when you know how .
cheers mate appreciated
or you can dial this number
**61*insert your voicemail number here*11*30#
if you then hit the call button and enter this your phone will ring for 30 seconds before going to voice mail.
cheers
How do I increase the ring time before the focus goes to voicemail? Everytime my wife or I get a call we miss it.
This is not from the Focus, It's from the carrier operator.
You need to call them in order to cancel the voice mail or to increase the time if such a thing exists.
If you have AT&T, then try this: http://sketchstudios.net/wordpress/2009/07/att-iphone-users-add-ring-time-before-voicemail/
