[moved] Is ETEL supported by S60 5th ed?

[Sergey_Burish]

Test application makes GSM calls using ETEL (RTelServer, RPhone, RLine, RCall). Works fine on S60 3rd.
But on S60 5th no call can be established: after RCall:ial I get iStatus==KErrGeneral in RunL.
(Tested on 5800)
What is wrong?

you could check the 3rd ed documentations for the APIs, they should say that the APIs are depracated. Anyway, you can use CTelephony API for dialing, it should work just fine, also Wiki should have working example for it, so have a look into our wiki.

Important note: It stops to work after software of device was updated from V 10.0.010 to V 20.0.012

What exactly stops to work? Is the library missing or are you simply getting some error when accessing [one of] its methods?

[Sergey_Burish]

To ltomuta:
ETEL stops to work: it returns KErrGeneral (see post #1 here).

To All:
we used CTelephony initially, but it has severe bug, so we have to use ETEL instead (despite of depracating).

The bug of CTelephony we found: application can make 2 calls (active and hold), and native dialer can "see" only 1 (hold). As result:
1. user can switch to native dialer, hang up the hold call, and he can't see, that there is another call left.
2. it isn't possible to make conference.

So, can anybody make clear answer: Is ETEL supported by S60 5th edition? And if it is, how to force it work?
