The 4.4.0.68 OS update now officially includes your patch and entirely solves the issue with rejected calls coming back and ringing again. Thank you @dcaliste so much for all your work!
Given how much faster the X10 III is compared to previous models, I was hoping that it would also finally be fast enough to be ablle to programmatically reject calls quickly enough for the ringtone not to start ringing before the call gets programmatically rejected. But sadly no, it does not differ compared to previous models and OS versions, i.e. once every couple of times there is still 1-2 seconds of ringing before the call gets rejected Enough to e.g. wake me up when I want to have some sleep (or if I am in a place where my phone should not be disturbing if not really necessary) and I use the call blocking app to only allow important calls through. Unfortunately, handling the D-Bus call is too slow to reject calls before they start ringing.
Does anyone know any way to speed it up?
