I can’t put a call on hold to answer an incoming call
While on a call, if you answer an incoming call from a different app, your first call might be disconnected
instead of being put on hold. For example, while on a phone call, if you answer an incoming
BBM Voice
call, your current phone call ends.
A message appears on your device to notify you that answering another call will end your current call.
Notifications and ring tones
You can personalize your BlackBerry device by customizing your notifications and ring tones. You can
also turn off all notifications or set your notifications to vibrate. The Instant Previews and Lock Screen
Notifications features allow you to stay up-to-date and manage your inbox without having to leave the
app that you're in when you receive your messages.
About notifications and ring tones
The global notification settings on your BlackBerry device work like a master switch that either turns on
or turns off the customized notifications that are currently set for apps or contacts. Customized contact
notifications override customized app notifications. For example, if sound is turned off for the Phone app
but is turned on in a customized notification for a contact, the phone still rings when the contact calls
you.
If you want to customize how you receive priority messages in your BlackBerry Priority Hub, you can
create a rule so that messages sent from specific accounts, with a specific subject, or with other criteria
are sent to your BlackBerry Priority Hub. You can also turn on a Level 1 alert for specific messages so
that you receive a custom notification for these messages.
Note: Level 1 alerts override existing notification settings.
Change your notifications or ring tones
In the Notifications settings, you can change the settings for your sounds, notifications, and ring tones.
You can also set the volume level of the notifications, number of vibrations, and more.
