Lync 2013 Android Client and simultaneous ring problem

Question

this is sort of a duplicate but since the other one was marked as answered when it was not I figured I'd start this topic up again.
I set up the Android mobile client on my phone and all seemed to work fine (apart from the know bu where it keeps saying "calls aren't setup to ring mobile device..."  whether the are or not) but I've run into the super annoying issue where
even if you turn simultaneous ring off for the cell phone number it still rings through when I get a call on my Lync work phone (a bit delayed so it rings just before voice mail picks up). What stinks is that even if I completely sign out of the Lync mobile
app I still get these ring throughs. The only solution was to reinstall the app with a bogus cell number (which is a bad way to go as it might be calling a random number if I'm not careful). the other thread had a moderator give the answer to create a user
level voice policy to not allow simultaneous ringing. Yeah, thanks. I'd actually like to use the feature sometimes and so would all of my users.
So, is this a bug in the Android client? In the Mobile functionality on the server? What? When I run SEFAUtil on my account it doesn't show any simulring or forwarding (my full Lync 2013 client agrees with that) so what the heck is going on. I can't roll
this upgrade from 2010 out to users until this can be resolved.

I think I found the solution to the annoying ring to the phone even when your turn off your call forwarding/sim ring.
In Lync 2013 desktop client, when you first setup SIM ring, it asks you to enter the phone that you would like to have sim ring. In this case, most likely your cellphone number. Then when you are sick of SIM ring, you decide to turn this feature off, but
you still get SIM ring to your cellphone which is very annoying. If I remember correctly, in Lync 2010, when you switch from SIM ring ON to OFF, the cellphone number will be deleted automatically. In Lync 2013, however, doesn't do so. Therefore, your cellphone
number is still there even though your have call forwarding OFF. This is a bug. The work around to it is to go to Tools > Options > Call Forwarding, select SiM ring; then from the drop down list, instead of choosing your saved cellphone number, choose
WORK number. Then select "Turn Off Call Forwarding". Now, go back to SIM ring option again, you will see the saved cellphone number is now gone. It will only display your work number. Now, try to make a test call to your Lync phone, it shouldn't ring to your
cellphone anymore.
To me, this seems to have fixed it. You can try this and let me know if that fixes yours too.
