Auto answer setting in iphone 3G

I ride a motorbike and have a bluetooth system to my helmet. I have the phone in the back of the bike or in my pocket. Phone rings but I can't answer it because of where the phone is located. I know with the other phones i have had in the past they had a setting to auto answer the phone after 3 rings when connected to a bluetooth headset. Is this possible running 3.0 on the iphone.
I realy don't want to have to purchase any more equipment to get this to work.

Short answer: Regrettably, not from the iPhone itself. There are a couple Bluetooth earpieces that have an auto answer option and will work with the iPhone (Cardo S-800, some BlueAnt models). I have tried both, but have found them not to fit well with my ear, so I keep on using a Nokia 6300 and Jabra BT 5020.
I have numerous times asked Apple to include auto answer as an option on the iPhone (through http://www.apple.com/support/feedback/), but without tangible results. I would suggest that any who wish this feature also ask for it through the above mechanism. Perhaps numerous requests will bring results.

  • How can i set Messages to auto answer video chats?

    I used to be able to have iMessages and iChat auto-answer incoming video chat/calls.  I use this to communicate with staff who may not be able to quickly accept the incoming event.

    Hi,
    The AppleScript for this is still  there.
    It can be set in Messages Menu > Preference > General Section in the bottom drop down.
    The Sound/alerts pane has gone in Mavericks and sound can now only be changed for  "Messages Received".
    Although I must admit to not trying it I have presumed the AppleScript would then only work for Text Invites.
    Having said that the AppleScript should be able to run as a separate even like an App from the Dock.
    The Drop Down in Messages has an Option to Show In Finder effectively.

    Thanks but this is not what I am looking for.  I am looking for the settings - setting that allows our iphone to auto sync with your mac book when you make a puchase on either device.
    You aren't going to sync with my MacBook when I make a purchase.
    And you are not going to autosync your iPod with the MacBook unless you tell it to sync or plug it in.
    You can enable Automatic downloads when you make a purchase.
    iTunes settings > Store.
    When you make a purchase, it will automatically download that purchase to devices set up the same way.
    This is not the same as autosyncing your device to your computer (as you first asked).

  • How do I set up a port on a SPA8000 to auto answer for a 2 way intercom/paging?

    I have a customer with an analog pbx system now that I am changing over to a sip system. They have a few lines that need to still have analog connectivity so I am installing a Cisco/Linksys SPA8000. One of my issues is with a 2-way PA system between their main office and shop. They have a Viking Model HF-3W paging system presently that allows them to communicate both ways without having to pick up a phone at the shop. I need to set the SPA8000 to have one port auto answer for this paging system but I am not sure how.

    See attached LV86 example. Open the properties dialog of the knob for more info about its configuration.

  • DOES THE IPHONE 6 HAVE AN AUTO ANSWER FUNCTION

    I just bought a portable speaker for my iPhone for use in my shop.  It is not blue tooth and the phone must be connected to the speaker through the earphone jack.  The speaker has an answer function that interrupts the music for an incoming call and a microphone to facilitate hands free usage.  The big catch seems to be that I still must push the answer button on my iPhone screen to answer the call.  I hope I am missing something.  Does the iPhone 6 have an auto answer function?

    This seems incredible. How could Apple pass up such a basic function.  I don't have a car new enough to integrate with my phone so I just assumed that auto-answer was a common feature in all smart phones.  I seem to remember disabling this feature in an LG android phone several years ago.  What am I missing?

  • Auto answer after a few rings?

    I use to have a phone that had the autoanswering option in the setting while hooked to a headset. It would be very convenient on the IPhone cause I have a telecom system for my motorcycle and i'd like my IPhone to auto answer after a few rings.
    Any idea how-to do that if possible?
    Thanks.

    It's not possible. that's not a feature of the iPhone OS.

    how to fix ?

    Im not sure what you mean restore but not fix. I would suggest you set your iPhone up as new, you will loose all your information. Then sync contacts and add your apps back that way you will get rid of any corruption from previous backups. If that fails a DFU restore might be needed.

  • UCCX 8.02 - call volume on the tone for auto answer

    I have UCCX r8.02. Our agents are configured to have auto answer and calls drop into their headset, the agent set does not ring. The agents hear a tone and are alerted of the call before the caller is connected. Is there anyway to turn up the volume on the tone the agent hears?

    I don't believe so. I mean, outside of turning up the headset volume. Of course this is not a UCCX question, rather a CUCM question. There's a separate forum for that, and those guys may know.
    The hacker in me would root the CUCM and search for the audio file on the disk and modify it. But, that's more than most will risk for a simple audio increase.

  • Can I have iPod over-ride the auto-lock setting?

    I use my iPhone to play music over my car stereo via the aux input, and have the auto-lock set to 5 minutes. I want to leave my auto-lock setting on, but have it not lock when the iPod is playing. I think some other apps know how to over-ride this, but my iPhone is always locking me out when I'm driving and it's not safe to be unlocking it while driving.
    Of course I can turn OFF auto-lock in settings, but I'd rather not have to do that every time.

    No.
    If you do not want it to lock, then turn auto lock off.
