Flashing others on their Phone over here simply means an activity whereby one picks up their phone to call or dial another number and on the process whereby the receiver’s phone rings, the caller immediately cuts the call in order for the receiver not to pick the call.
It is a means of alerting a call receiver by causing their phone to ring out shortly without allowing them pick the call before ending the call on the callers end. This is mostly done whenever a caller has very little Airtime on their phone and unable to put a full call to the receiver, thereby using this method to alert the receiver, hoping that the receiver on the other hand might have enough airtime to call back.
Although, sometimes, people just use this method to preserve their airtime or for other reasons best known to them.
