Huawei How to Adjust Call Settings

If Quick calling is activated on your Huawei device, you can make a call while the display is on standby. To start a quick call, you need to press and hold the volume down key and say the name of the contact you want to call.

If voice broadcast is activated and your Huawei device is connected to a headset, you will hear the default ringtone if a call is incoming instead of the custom contacts ringtone.

By default, call forwarding on your Huawei device is set up by mobile carrier standards. Usually, calls will be forwarded if your line is "busy", there is "no answer" or your device is "not available". The forwarding can be (de-) activated for each case by itself, or you can set up a different phone number as a call receiver.

If calls over Wi-Fi is activated on your Huawei device, you can, depending on signal strenght, make calls within a Wi-Fi network.

Note: If you activate Wi-Fi calling for the first time, you will be notified that it is not possible to make emergency calls using Wi-Fi calling.

If someone calls you, while you are already phoning with someone else, your Huawei device will notify you optically and acustically that another call is incoming. You can turn on or off this little knocking sound in the settings.

Note: If you are using dual SIM cards, you can activate or deactivate the Call waiting function for each SIM individually.

By default, your own phone number will be transmitted to your interlocutor. The Huawei device uses the standard network settings of your mobile carrier. Sending the caller-ID can be surpressed if wished. This setup will be saved on your SIM card. 

Note: If you use dual SIM cards, you can activate or deactivate sending the caller ID individually.

To save money, for example if you are in another country, you can activate call barring on your Huawei device. The following options can be (de)activated individually:

• All outgoing
• Outgoing international
• Outgoing calls when roaming
• All incoming
• Incoming calls when roaming

Note: If you use dual SIM, you can set up call barring individually for each SIM.

Please retrieve your call barring password from your mobile carrier.

If this function is activated on the Huawei device, we can end a call by pressing the power button.

Like the title says, you can forward calls from one SIM card to the other SIM card on your Huawei device, if one of the two is not available or defective.

f this function is activated on your Huawei smartphone, incoming calls, timers and alarm clocks with associated vibration are muted when you turn the Huawei device over. For this you can individually determine whether only incoming calls or the alarm clock should be muted.
