Actually, call waiting works for me. Whenever I am on a call and someone else calls, I hear a beep and I can see on the screen that I have another call. If I don't answer, the other call stays in my call history as an unanswered call.

About the first issue, I wondered about that too. I had a really dumb Sony Ericsson phone which supported this feature.

P.S. I misread your call waiting issue... Whenever I call someone who has call waiting I get a beep that tells me I am waiting... However, as far as I know this is an operator feature. On another operator a voice actually tells you to wait because the other party is talking.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dubart:
I didn't switch to another operator, I just switched from Nokia E66 to iPhone and later to Legend when I lost that feature.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biomy:
i get another issu too !!

and am sure you all get it ..

in (smart) dumb phones when i call my manager (and my manager is already talking in a call with his wife for example) it gives me different call sound tone, to notify me he is in a call so i stop calling and wait to call again later ...

in (stupid) smart phones, Windows Mobile and Legend !

if i call my manager and he is already in a call, i never hear anything to notify me! so i dont stop my call , and it really seems so stupid and disturbing from me sometimes !

the reason is what ?

i dont really know ....

is it that much hard to put these simple options ?

:cool:

... suggests that the functionality is within the stock Android dialler, but not in the HTC dialler. Use a ROM that allows you to install the standard dialler and use that by default?
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapier:
I was talking about "call waiting" notification when you are calling someone that has call waiting function, not when you are the one that is called and you're notified about a second incoming call. biomy explained better the idea that I was talking about.

And no, there is not about the operator. You can have a nokia on any carrier, it'll work the same. It's just the way the phone or it's software decodes the incoming call signal. As this is received by all phones the same, I presume any phone/software can decode it in the same way nokia is doing if it has this implemented. As far as I know though, there is no application on the market (paid or free) that does this simple thing. I'm sure most of us will even pay for it.

If some android phones have the diverted call notification (galaxy s on 2.1) can the code be ported to other devices?

I divert calls from my work phone to my personal mobile, and really need to be able to tell when I'm receiving a diverted call from my work number
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapier:
Samsung is the second phone brand that includes this in all or most of their phones. Doesn't matter if it's Android or not, Nokia and Samsung has this feature (and as I know they're the only ones to do it).

Maybe there is hope if an Samsung Android phone (Galaxy S) has it...maybe there will be a developer that will try to find a way or reverse engineer the ROM to find the code for it. I am willing to pay for it for sure and I'm sure some other will as well.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ge0rG:
Diverted Call Display app for Android

After the issue bothered me enough, I have made an attempt at detecting incoming diverted calls.

The app is using the device log to find out if an incoming call is diverted, and thus needs READ_LOGS permission. READ_PHONE_STATE is needed to get notified about incoming calls.

So far the app has been tested on CyanogenMod 5 and 7 on GSM/UMTS phones. It probably won't work at all on CDMA devices and neither on devices which already implement any type of diverted call notification.

Please test if it works for you and tell me your Android firmware version (and if it's an AOSP-based community firmware).

That's a great thing, you've made...alot of people happy.

Unfortunately, I've changed my Legend and replaced it with a Desire S. Playing with other ROMs, I've finally installed a MIUI ROM and it seems this "diverted notification" IS integrated in MIUI. So for me the problem was solved by having a MIUI ROM. Though I'll ask my friend who's now the owner of my ex Legend to test this...he's still using CM 7.1 on it.

It depends on how the ROM configures the radio. To find out more, I need the radio log from the device, right after you received a forwarded call.

There is a new "Request device support" menu in the App that can be used to send the radio log. No more SDK / other apps needed.

Probably the timing was too strict in the old version. I'm attaching a binary with a less strict timing. However, please be aware that the new version only displays the notification once, instead of keeping it open until you accept the call.

When i put it from my pocket, i miss the notification?!
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapier:
I tested on ICS...it's not working.:( Application is installing OK but either due to the fact I have Desire S or that I'm using ICS...it's not showing anything.

Anyways, the call screen in ICS looks totally different from the one in CM7 or sense ROMs...
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ge0rG:
I know that this limitation is reducing the usability of the app. However, I have to pay my bills, and there needs to be a distinguishing factor between the free and the paid version. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I have had a look at the ICS source code. They have significantly changed the notification mechanism.

Edit: I have implemented what I think should work on ICS, the new APK is attached. In case it still does not work, please follow post #22 and send me a radio log.
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rapier:
I was testing with the old version initially, after your PM I've downloaded the FCA version and I can confirm it's working on ICS (and Desire S because I no longer have the Legend)

Now the feedback:

I don't know if it's because of the free version, but the message is appearing only on the bottom of the screen and even if I set it to "center" or "top" it stays at bottom. Also if I set is as arrow instead of text only the text appear.

I'll attach print screens to see how the incoming call screen looks on ICS. This way you can develop the appl to integrate the message in that screen and look nicer not just as a text placed somewhere. The current position of the notification is not good since it stays exactly above the ring that you should drag in order to answer/reject a call (I've managed to catch the print screen so it's shows up). The ring is functional even with the notification over it, but it's not looking nice.

On the top, there's a light blue band when calling or receiving calls, a band that display the call status (Incoming or Calling/Dialing). That bar disappears when the call is connected. I think that's the best place for the notification, you can just write the word "FORWARDED" before the already displayed text with the same characters and capital letters to match that text.

You'll see in the print that it's written "INCOMING CALL". If you set it like in my recommendation it will show "FORWARDED INCOMING CALL" when such call occur. In my opinion will integrate perfect with the screen (of course without background and in white like the text there)

If this is not possible or takes too much you can leave like it is but place it just BELOW the ring. On left, right and top are the icons for reject/accept/reject with SMS icons (check those in the Icons.png attached). To integrate it better, you can leave out the dark grey background. The whole area there is black so a pure white text will look much better

Is it possible the same way to identify also when the call is waiting? You know, when you call somebody and that person is already engaged in a call and has call waiting option active. On the same phones I was mentioning initially, there is a "waiting" notification on screen. If the mechanism is the same it will be useful to integrate this as well.

Hope that this will help, in case you need me to test anything, just let me know. Your application is great

P.S. The ROM I am using is the latest ICS beta from my signature
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cqf66:
hello Georg,

i have sent you the log.

tnx
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ge0rG:
Yes, this is a limitation of the free version. I have modified it now to display the notification in the screen center on ICS, so it does not cover up the button.

Regarding "real" ICS integration, it is unfortunately not possible to change the call screen, so a popup is so far the only way to achieve my goal.

I am not sure about call waiting notifications. I will have to test that first.

I am reading my email more often than XDA anyway, and I have email notifications enabled ;-) No need to clutter the thread.

I have moved the app to its own thread now! It seems, solving a problem and being a long-time open source author does not suffice to be allowed to post in the "commercial apps" forum on XDA. Obviously, I have to have 100+ posts first. I will not be posting any new versions of the app to this forum. You can get it from Android Market (paid version), or from its home page.

Feel free to ask questions about the app here, unless I am violating even more rules...

Hi folks,

I am really sorry for the confusion. I have disabled FCA on JellyBean phones because Google changed the way how logcat reading is working.

If you have the app (free or paid), you can also run the following via adb/terminal to make it work:

Forwarded Call Alert Paid:

sudo
pm grant de.duenndns.forwardedcall android.permission.READ_LOGS

Hi Georg,

just thought I'd say that i have got your app working on my galaxy s3 running stock jellybean by converting it to a system app with titanium backup ( suppose this is the same as copying the app from data/apps to system/apps as already suggested in this thread.

As you've removed it from the market for jelly bean users, it would be useful if you could offer a means of paid users to get updates.

I had to roll back my rom to get the update, then take a backup of the app using titanium, re-install JB with CWM then restore my backed-up app; a bit of a convoluted process to say the least

great app
[Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ge0rG:
Starting with version 1.5c, there is no more need to convert the app into a system app; it will request root on first start and work from there on.

I am really sorry, and I dislike the situation as much as you do. Unfortunately, there is no way to limit the app to rooted devices, so I had to disable it for all JB users.

If you bought the app and run a rooted JB device, you can email me from the gmail address associated to the purchase to get an up-to-date APK file (1.5c). Otherwise, you can star the Android bug in the hope that Google is going to fix it one day:
