    Hi. I have an iPhone 5 and looking for a bit of info. If I ring someone and they are on a call already I have no way of telling. Is there any way to activate a screen message for this.

    I think that's more of a carrier thing.

    would that be called an engaged tone ?

    The narrower a man’s mind, the broader his statements.

    No, that's a sound. OP clearly stated they're looking for a display on the screen. The bad comedy forum closed a while back, by the way.

    When you ring mobile to mobile you never get a engaged tone. If I ring someone and they are on a call I have no way of knowing but with the older phones when someone I was ringing was on a call it said so on my screen.

    User busy is when they are on the phone and don't have call waiting enabled I think.
