Call waiting won't inform me if I'm on the call waiting line? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Dead Diamond users and non Diamond users, can you please help me.
I, and I think not only me, have the following problem:
My phone will not inform me, if I'm on the others people waiting line, example:
I'm (A) calling my friend (B) whois speaking with a (C), and I'm on the (B's) waiting line, but I have not idia about it, cause my Diamond won't inform me about it in any way, but my Nokia or Samsung (with the same operator and the same Simcard) will inform me on the display, that "Call Waiting"
Any one knows a good solution to this? Maybe "CAB" or Reestor tweak?
(I've got this very good explanation of my problem from some one else post)
In my case, when i call someone that is on a call with call waiting activated on my HTC Diamond doesn't "say" anything. On my old Nokia it "says" Waiting.
Another think i noticed is when i receive a diverted call on the old phone says "diverted call" and then put a simbol before the number. On my new phone no information about it is displayed.
Can anyone know if there is any app that can make the phone "smarter" in this case?
_____
If any solution can be found, I'll donate with pleasure
Thanks a lot!

i think this is a problem with all Windows Mobile phones. as even my old i-Mate K-JAM (Wizard) was not able to do these things.
i agree its annoying, but i guess you learn to live without it eventually.

Yes, you right! I'll live without it, but maybe it is possible to edit something in a low level (like AT modem programming, or smothing like this, knew this stuff from iPhone at command),
Maybe some one can do this?
Thanks!

if someone ever figures this one out, i would happily pay for it.
its one of those things that always bothered me about Windows Mobile phones, and i never found a solution for.

So, If some one can do thin work, WE (now ME & pult) start donation
Help us and help the world please

any news on this ??
i'm need the info on the divert call... i have 2 # on my sim and they are redirected between them...
thanks

I agree with all of you,
"Waiting ..." and "Diverted call" are two messages I miss a lot after I moved to Windows Mobile phones ....
Time to time I'm searching for a solution, but nothing ...
I tryed to get solutions from Microsoft ... no answer.
Any news ?
HTC TouchFlo could manage it ?

Call Queue

Hi Before I purchased my Kaiser i had a Sony Ericsson phone, my old phone gave me a signal when the person I was calling was handling another call. This is not happening with my Kaiser, anyone know of an application that can make this on the Kaiser or can anyone develop one? (I know it still working because I just test it with my old phone)
Thanks
Bump, Anyone?
as far as i know, if you call a person who is busy on another line, my network plays a prerecorded female voice that says:
"The number you have dialed is busy on another line. Please wait."
i had a cheap-ass motorola phone and this is what i heard. after upgrading to the kaiser, i hear the SAME THING, nothing more, nothing less.
what i mean to say is that MAYBE the sony ericsson was doing something propriatory that might not be considered a "standard feature" and therefore the kaiser (and my previous cheap-ass motorola and countless other basic bare bone phones i've used) doesn't include it.
HOWEVER, when I myself am on the phone and someone calls me, the kaiser beeps/rings/vibrates (depending on the sound profile and settings) to indicate i have a call waiting.

ASCIIker I Completely understand what your saying, when you call someone that is busy on another line your carrier gives you a message saying that the caller is busy on the other line and to wait, in my carrier it doesn't happen like that, you get the same tone as if the caller its not on another call, so that's why this tools is handy at least with my carrier, In my case it goes like these, it rings and in the middle of the first ring it gives me a tone(and also shows a message saying "caller busy"), with my kaiser it doesn't do it.
Thanks for the reply
Anyone??? Bump

Tracing a mobile number!

Im in need of some assistance here, i have a nuisance caller txtin me all the time with silly things to say. Im a Team Leader in a Security Company and its my job to keep people on and let people go. Theres been lots of different people who have left due to my decision for management. Now im getting nuisance txt messages from a number which i would like to trace.
Ive looked at different types of websites, followus, trackme and all these need confirmation before the tracking process can begin. Is there anything out there that can help me in my quest for justice? Is it possible for someone to create a little app for the kaiser to get me some details regarding this fool who has not stopped stressing me out? Im a single dad with 2 kids to look after and im not getting any sleep due to this.
Any help would be grateful!
Before you ask
- I cant just turn my phone on silent as i am on call 24/7 also my mum is critically ill in hospital and i cant afford to miss calls.
- I dont want to block the number as i would like to know who this person is.
- Ive called my service provider and they have a 'all or nothing' policy
- I dont want to change my number because that means this person wins and i lose my number which i have had for 10years
Not sure if this is of any help.

Im gonna give this a shot, but im really looking for something that will give the senders location away. Also im not really getting much calls, most of them are txted messages.
But thank you anyway for your suggestion
Dont know if this will help but get a blacklist program for winmo and add his name to it. I can remember the names of some but there are a lot that work well, you add the phone number, and nothing more from this person.

outgoing call waiting notification

when i call someone and that someone is on a call with another person, i should get a message saying that the person is on a call so that i'd know that he is busy with another call ..
Would appreciate if anyone can be of help here.

Who says that you should receive a notice as to what the other person is doing when you call ?

yes, but that doesn't have nothing to do with your phone. It's a provider's (vendor/operator) service. And only some of them support it
Actually @t_assal is correct, he meant if I call a guy who is calling someone else and this guy is activated the call waiting function, I have to get a message "waiting" and then you decide to continue disturbing him or to hang up.
Also @papo is correct that his is an operator thing.
But the problem that the operator send me back this waiting signal, and neither my iPhone nor my Nexus one shows this message, but my 10 years old Nokia show it. the same sim card used in the three phones for this test.
Which means the waiting signal which sent by the operator "maybe only Mr. t_assal's and mine" is not recognized by neither iPhone nor nexus1 (also winmo)

we need to make clear about this. Just to make post short and spare my brain waves, I supposed (wrongly?) he messed it up and is referring to sms which called party get after finish his call.
That's the service I've wrote about.
It's handy if you are off, turn phone on and receive message from Bob, but it's automated and saying he tried to call and you can hit call back btn. In some countries/operators it's common.
Why would I want a message saying Bill is busy on call, 5 secs after I hear beep beep from the line? But yes that would be phone function and it's possible to handle. It's a network message, nokia is showing them by default (and can't be turned off!!!! :-S )
Make an application showing message such as this is possible and there could be one. Just what the purpose?
Though there is one useful info there. After active call ends, phone will receive network message containing code, which describes reason of ended call: red button by called, caller, lost reception (out of coverage or battery), network error, network busy
If you often make people angry over line and they hang on you, with this cell code you can have an monthly statistic of upset people or whatever you want. aah just cant see any reason to have this eather
run windows\fieldtest.exe and check it there, that's good enough.
sorry to hear ppl who thinks they know it all and says bull****..
The fact is clear, whe u call some one who has HIS call waiting service active UR phone MUST indicate U the other person call status. that's what call waiting means. usually "call on waiting.." or something, but STILL ringing and the othrer person hears some indicator beep or someting , and HE desides to take the call or not.
the bug is Iphone 3gs, 4g (and nexus aparently) don't show this message "call waiting" like ALL other phones, in my case, OMNIA II, nokia, (with the same SIM card) shows the msg.
please don't coment if u dont know and PLEASE lowercase and regular font. NOOBS.
sorry for my bad english.

Who's the noob? You double posted and no this isn't a fact, I've never had a phone tell me when someone is on a call. There are some carriers that have a tone at the end of the ring to let you know they are on another call..
I think you are confusing your words, your phone should alert you (the person getting the call) that someone is calling you while on another line, it's not the other way..
Provide some info stating other wise that isn't half ass typed like the **** you are posting.
Yes it's true I had this problem since i started using PDA phones only (HTC Mda compact, then HTC Tytn 2 and the HTC HD2), I think problem only exists when using PDA phones because ''call waiting'' function is working on my all other symbian phones like (Samsung, Nokia, .... with symbian)
It might be with Windows mobile phones not sure, but don't know if there is any fixing for this specially for HTC HD2 ..
thanks

SMS Timestamp Help

Hey Everyone,
I'm hoping somebody can point me in the right direction.
The issue I have (it's on ALL of my WM phones) and it's an issue with my provider. Anytime I am on 3G, the timestamp of my received SMS' are exactly one hour behind. So if my phone drops to EDGE or GPRS, my received SMS' timestamps are correct. My provider, no matter how much I complain (this used to even happen with a WM device I bought from them!) they always say they will do something about it yet they never have. And a FYI for anyone that is going to recommend me using the timestamp cab fix, that does not solve this problem.
Now the only workaround I've been doing for a the longest time is forcing all my phones onto 3G however there are spots which have no 3G so if I'm in the middle of a phone call, my call drops or I don't get any SMS', etc.
I've gotten sick of the dropped calls (I'm mostly in my basement which gets 3G only in certain parts of it) so I've been using my backup iPhone 3G (which doesn't have this problem, go figure) until I can find a registry tweak or something to force my Blackstone to use the phone's actual time vs my providers SMS timestamp.
Is there anyone that can give me any place to start looking in the registry that I can play around with the figure it out?
Thanks in advance for everyone for their help. I love this community!

[Q] Caller ID Problem

Hi,
My HTC HD7 is having a bit of a problem. The caller id does not funtion properly all my contacts have the area code prefix for all the numbers. When I receive a call the caller name is not shown only the number is shown. But if I remove the area code the caller name is shown. But then all the sms (text messages) I receive shows only the Sender's number and not the name. Please let me know if there is a fix for this.
Thx
Well known problem and still without solution.
Probably we'll need someone to hack the registry and we can find the key where the caller ID match the number.
Mine also has the same problem.
same here
Mine is having the same problem... is an HTC issue... I searched everywhere and there's no solution yet available... Can't believe HTC made this error....
Hi,
Any news about fix the caller ID problem on Mango Update ?
mango 7712 still has that problem
Having updated my phone to mango 7712, I´m still having this problem. I wouldn´t say is and HTC problem but a windows Phone 7 bug. It´s hard to believe they did nothing about it.
Turn off international assist under phone settings and your problems will disappear. Once off, power cycle your phone
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I have the same problem and turning off international assist won't do anything to help. I've reported this twice to HTC and once to @winphonesupport on twitter (lots of back and forth and made them understand that many people are having this problem and they said they were aware that other people are having this issue and that they will let the right people on the WP team know).. Yeah so hopefully this gets fixed with mango, but im not too optimistic about that.
Have you tried? I had that problem as it adds characters in the numbers, then it does not recognize from the list of contacts. It worked for me, all works now....
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I have! i wish it did work! you're in australia which is probably why it works. An htc rep actually called me (i was really surprised) but i was running late for a dinner so i barely heard what he had to say. he was like yeah we have that problem with some countries like lebanon(mine) and iceland and htc is working on it for future phones but not this one or something like that. i was late and couldn't talk so i said ok thanks and hung up.
