There's apparently a way to figure out why the call ended (hung up or cut off). If you go into airplane mode, it will seem like it was cut off.

And Samsung, with all its wisdom disabled that "feature". You can't turn on airplane mode while on a call

I think it's the difference between the call ending suddenly (hang up) and the call not responding for several seconds before dropping (lost connection).

This ain't even a meme. It's straight up a tip for when you're about to call someone you hate

It is actually how my teenage daughter avoids calls with me, and only uses IM, when she is out with her friends.

I'm just wondering why she thinks she needs such tricks at all lol

That’s a good one but I’m still leaning towards just not answering the phone in the first place

My voicemail says, "Sorry, if you're getting this message you're not on my contacts lists. Please text and I'll get back to you."

Even for people on my contacts list. This filters only real people and let's me text instead of talk.

You guys have phone service on your phones?

Anwser the phone like "Hello, Justice Department, how may I help you?" for a 85% chance for a "Sorry wrong call" :D

"Welcome to Papa's Pizzeria and Abortion Clinic where yesterday's loss is today's sauce. How may I help you?"

" you've reached the state justice department, this is Maurice speaking, this call may be recorded, how can I assist you today "

And always disconnect while you're in the middle of speaking.

"I hate talking on the phone and won't pick up, text me." also often works.

Spoken like someone who doesn't get calls from older people

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Damn right, because I don't pick up.
