MUSIC WHEN CALLS PLACED ON HOLD on Mogul

[Baffles]

Oh, I didn't verify anything. I was just making a joke. :P

[Scrufdog]

you can put people on hold with a Mogul? Did I miss something?

[medinatwin]

No, its when you receive another incoming call and the other person is placed on hold. Instead of silence, we want the ability to hear music while holding. Verizon and Sprint have a feature where if someone calls you, instead of hearing the normal ring, ring, ring, they have Call Tones (sprint) or Ring Back Tones (verizon). Similar to telephone systems in an office, where you can place a person on hold and they hear music.

I guess you can store it on a memory card, but you would need to switch between two sources, one for talking and one for music. This can probably work! If anyone is familiar with phone systems, you need to provide a music source that is always playing, so I think it can be made to fit on a chip and when the caller is on hold, it activates the chip and play the song or in this case MUSIC!

I think Im dropping too much science here! sorry for letting my GEEK side go all out!!

I disagree, I think it would be possible to do this with software. It would be like a media player cued up on pause, and just begins playing when put on hold. I'm no software expert, but I see no reason that additional hardware would be needed.

I believe the problem the phone would have is memory. The phone struggles due to not having enough ram. The phone would probably blow up if someone tried to make an app on the mogul.

lmao would like to see that

[JDM_SOHC]

they could make it like a seperate voicemail option, when creating a voicemail you should be able to create an on hold message.... i think im onto something..!!

example: when calling sprint, the operator tells you to HOLD and there's that damn elevator music playing while you are on HOLD. some of us know if you're calling someone you are able to hear music instead of a regular ring if that option is available for their phone, i think people are getting confused a bit.
