Hi.
I've got an HTC Desire, and have been experiencing some very weird but cool behaviour from the phone recently.
Sometimes, when I receive a call, my phone will ring, but at the same time I can hear the calling person talking over my phone's loudspeaker. The calling person has no idea that I can hear them. For them all they hear is the usual ring ring in their own phone's ear-piece.
However, on my phone, I can listen in on their conversation with others, before I choose to answer the phone. I can scream and shout into my phone, and they are unable to hear me, unless of course I answer the call.
How the frikkin hell is the possible?
I recently updated the phone's firmware to Froyo. My SIM Card/phone number was originally with Vodacom (years ago), then I ported to Virgin Mobile prepaid, and then I ported it to Nashua Mobile on an MTN Contract, then to MTN SP on prepaid, and then again back to Nashua Mobile on my current MTN contract.
Oh, and my phone also suffered some water damage when it was left on the bathroom window sill and some rain got onto it. It stopped working for about 6 weeks, but then magically started working again (after some occasional hair drying, lots of rice, and some silica dessicant). It was after this that I upgraded the firmware to Froyo.
Any ideas? It doesn't happen very often, jmaybe about once a week.
