That’s the thing I hate about modern computers (phones). Music? Oh man, it’s ringing. Being creative? No sir, you got a call. Want to watch a tv show? Sorry, better luck next time. Jerkin’ yer gerkin’? Work is calling. Playing a little game? Well I’ll be damned, bzzzt bzzt. Wanna ignore it? Better wait for it to stop goddamn buzzing or they’ll know you sent them to voice mail. Listening to a podcast over Bluetooth? Better ring as loud as it can and interrupt until they give up.
Gah.
Pressing the power button on the side of your device should mute the ring without rejecting the call allowing it to ring out in silence. Hope this helps.
No way
Volume down does this on most Android phones. Just tap it once and it will mute the ring till it goes to voicemail. It will still vibrate though.
