Handling calls in Dual Stand by phones

Though this may be an amature technique in handling calls in dual sim phones, I post this here b'cause it may be very useful for our spice mi350 owners:

If your are on a call or in data connection with sim1, if somebody is calling in sim2, they may hear that the person is not reachable. In smart phone we are in need to be connected almost time to data network. So i gave you 2 solutions

1) First goto settings--> Wireless&networks--->GPRS prefer(select call prefer)

(because if you are downloading a file if someone call you Sim1 itself say you are not reachable). Then go to sim2 call settings and choose call forward option and choose call forward when not reachable and enter sim1 mobile number.

If someone call to sim2 if you are connected in sim1, the call will be forwarded to Sim1 and you will get a notification that call forwarded from no **********(your sim2 mobile no), do not attend the call, you attend the call in sim2 after disconnecting the call in Sim1 to avoid extra cost for call forwarding.

2) Activating Missed call alert in Sim2(it may be charged around rs.15 to rs.30 among most of Indian operators per month), then you cantact the persons you missed after getting the alert.

So we have no options other than this in this Dual stand by Android mobiles, or you have to wait for Dual active Android mobile I think the work is going on for that, Our mobile is dual standby dual active but single connective, we in no way can alter the hardware with single transreceiver, It is not possible to get calls in both Sim in Spice mi350..

I am searching for any possiblities to handle calls in both sims,

Hi ashokjagan

Thank u for all ur help. In my phone i am getting error when i try to enable forwarding when not reachable. there already seems to be one number and i am unable to update.. error and closing happens
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashokjagan:
It happens because some operators like airtel doesn't support call forwarding to other network number, or cancel all diverts and again activate call divert,

SMS / Calls - Time Lag

Hi!

I too had the above problems. It was very irritating. I remembered that in BlackBerry phones we used to pull out the battery once in a while when the phone is on. Subsequently, there came a application to do the "Battery Pull" automatically (of course not physically, the same effect is generated through software) at defined intervals. I tried the trick and it very much worked with our Spice Mi 350. While the phone is on and in stand-by mode remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Put the battery in and reboot (switch on) the phone. For my phone I have got to do this roughly once in a week.

Pl. try it and if it works hit the thanks button!! :D

Hi Guys!!

This may be slightly out of topic, but did anyone come across Spice Mi-350n? It looks pretty good and is slightly cheaper also. Rs.7638!! USB port shifted from the top to the left. The back too is beautiful. Never knew that it is going to be launched, would have waited!!

The mobile is avilable in India now, you can buy it at saholic.com at price 7638 INR, The major difference is it comes in nice finish and the three buttons are touch sensitive softbuttons(menu, Home and back) (not clear about it).

How to backup

Hi all, thanks to all of you people for contributing so much to this forum. When I bought this Spice Mi-350 mobile, everybody around me was advising me against it (Buying a Spice mobile, that too for Rs. 8000/-, better buy Nokia or Samsung ;) ). But I went ahead after going through all the specs of this mobile, and I really feel satisfied (except for the camera) with this.

When I found that this mobile is being discussed in this forum, I immediately joined it, and have found you people very cooperating. :)

Anyways, after reading all your posts, I finally rooted my mobile with Superoneclick (for the ultimate purpose of reverse tethering it with my windows xp PC).

Now, before moving any further, I would really like to backup all my ROM, settings, Apps etc, (Preferably making backup on my PC), like in Pre-rooted mobile it was, so that in case I have to use warranty, or something bad happens, I can revert to the originals. Please help me to do the same. As such, I am not very much proficient in computers, and don't know Unix at all. So Please describe your methods as much as possible.

Hi Sir Mohan,

I have purchased a Lenovo A60 which has 2.3.3 Stock Rom from EtoTalk

known for its GMS Weak signal issue. Asked them for support, they then send me

2 steps fix, first step by flashing with Flash_Tool_v2.1134.00 A60 V80 ROM

then 2nd step only system.img from Multi Language ROM A60_Multilanguage_for_V70.

I succeed to do the step 1 without any issue, but for 2nd step it won't!

Following their recommendations, I loaded the scatter file, unticked all options except "system.img" then :

Power off the phone, put out the battery, contact the phone to your PC by USB Cable, click Download... put on the battery, then the process bar will runs.

>>> it never happens something... When phone is connected, I hit download and

put on the battery, the Lenovo Preloader USB COM port is detected and then goes straight away and SP Flash Tool seems not to detect or find the USB COM Port...

I have really no CLUE why I can't perform this update???!!!

Any help or suggestion will be really appreciated.. It couldn't be a driver issue

because I can update the stock rom without any issue..

For the moment, I'm using the A60_PH_ID_VN_S105_111117 which is quite stable...
