Well, I'll amend my previous remarks and saying it is rude to hang up if it isn't obvious the talking is done now.

So for me it might be:

<ring>
<phone picks up>
Hey John, quick question. Do you know X?
Sure, answer is Y.
Thanks.
<phone hangs up>

So, in my opinion that had the indicators that talking is done. But I never said a verbal equivalent of "ok, we're going to hang up now. No, you go first! No, I went first last time, you hang up first this time. Ok, on three! 1, 2, 3 ... you didn't hang up!"
