call waiting problem:wtf??!!

6 replies · 2,803 views · Started 27 August 2005

Hey guys, just bought a nokia 3230, and pretty pissed of with some of the shortcomings of this phone...

I dont mind the other ones but this is really irritating....When I'm talking to somebody else and someone else calls up,there is no beep,telling me that a person is waiting...whats the f**king point of call waiting if it doesnt tell you that someone is calling....

Is this a problem with my phone alone or do all you guys have it too?

Can this be rectified,should i change my firmware?? the version i have is 3.0505.2 19-2-05...

I dont mind the other shortcomings....beep before ring tone,slow camera,and tough keypad,bad mp3 player...

P.S:have to guys noticed that samsung d500's display is atleast twice as bright as 3230's??

Have you turned it on/activated it in menu > Tools > Settings > Call > Call waiting?
