Automatic pickup does not work

[jmeader]

I have an 02 XDA Exec & I want to enable it to answer my incoming calls automatically without me pressing any buttons on the handset or my bluetooth Sony Ericsson HBH-610 headset

Infact I have 2 of these now, one of them was replaced because I found myself having to align the screen 5+ times a day and they both do not auto answer

Would someone be kind enough to suggest anything that I may have missed

I've done the following so far:

1. Start
2. Phone
3. Menu
4. Options
5. More
6. Ticked the box to "Answer incoming calls without pressing Talk after 1 rings.

I then pressed ok it carried on ringing until the answerphone kicked in

I did the same procedure again and tried a soft reset with the same results

I've also tried it with & without the bluetooth headset paired to the device

I can't see anything else that I can try :o(

Regards

I have been looking for a way to get my SPV M5000 to ring for longer, when it rings I have to run to it and open it as fast as I can before it cuts off to answer machine.

If it's like any other phone I've had with auto-answer, you'll find that the Universal needs to be in a proper car kit for that function to actually do anything, whether you've switched it on or not.

Thats a shame as it is bluetoothed to the Autocom system on my motorbike,

With the phone inside my leathers I know that a call is comeing in as it cuts the music and rings but no answer :-(

I am sure that we will find an answer soon

Call your service provider. They can increase the number of rings from their side, not from yours. That's what I did.

you can extend the phone rings by going into the phone settings, services, select call forwarding, get settings, it will take a second or two, opens a dialogue box where you can change from 15 seconds to 30 seconds.

never missed a call since.

That is not what I am looking for.

I want the phone to answer the call after a certain amount of rings.

That way I can leave one of my Mobile phones at home, call home and listen if my dogs are barking...

This feature can be found in the QTEK 9100 at:
Settings --> Phone --> More --> Rings before answer...

But it does not work!

please help!

Why not train your dogs to answer the phone? lol :D

Sorry, but this was too good to make a pass. OK, let's find the solution everyone.

[cuteangelika]

wow, i envy the dogs... they get a uni? 1 for each??? sorry, too good to not ride on this too.

hmm.. I have this problem too. By the time, i open my fone, i missed the call already :(

i am also looking for the software for HP ipaq 6818 cuz in this set

there is no option for automatic pickup in
1. Start
2. Phone
3. Menu
4. Options
5. More

i am also very confused that this future is not available in hp ipaq 6818

[Awais]

or is there any third party software available for automatic pickup

just like in symbian, advance call manger or car manager (for bluetooth) etc???????

[kikkegek]

I checked my iPAQ hw6515 from work.

It "does" also have this option under "settings --> phone --> more".

But here it says that it is only available when a wired headset is connected.

I think I am going to try this at home tonight.

I will let you guys now if this works...

[kikkegek]

the solution was found by me in the manual of my iPAQ 6515.

It says there that a wired headphone needs to be connected for this feature to be activated.

I connected tghe headphones to my phone and now I can listen to my dogs, when I am away from home....http://bestanimations.com/Animals/Mammals/Dogs/Dog-03-june.gif

HI Guys, I ride a bike and the automatic pickup on my V1615 (tytnii) was spot on. WM 6.1 appears to have stripped the facility out. Have tried everything. Is there a way of resurrecting this useful and safe feature? Regards
