You may have motion control on, "settings-personalization-motion" if on you can answer calls by just picking up the phone and putting it to your ear.I believe this works with the proximity sensor, so if a second call came in and you pulled the phone away to look at the second caller then put it back to your ear it would answer the second caller.so either shut it off or don't pull away when in call.let us know if this works.

Couldn't say about auto answer but if you don't EVER want to answer a 2nd call you can set Call Forward Busy to your voicemail number. If you'd rather callers get a busy signal turn off call waiting (*70 for next call, *43 I think for all calls--might have to get CS to turn it off). Wait-there's a call waiting check box in settings-call-additional.

Under Settings-> Call -> Answering Machine, make sure it's disabled. Otherwise the phone might try to take messages while you're on a call.
