My Phone Rings Once and Goes to Voicemail - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, like the title says, whoever calls my phone basically gets sent straight to voicemail. On my side, the phone rings once and stops.
I have the latest NRG GTX ROM installed and hard reset the phone every time flash it. This probably has been happening since mid April and I have been flashing my phone since late December and had no problem until mid April.
I called AT&T and asked if they could help and they tried giving it different amount of rings before it goes to voicemail. That didn't work either... I have posted in the NRG forum and nobody could help, besides telling me to hard reset and Vol up+down, which didn't work either.
So... if anybody experienced the same problem as me that fixed it or have an idea on how to fix it, please respond! I need your help! THANKS!!

Its in the Call Forwarding settings.
Hi there.
The answer to your issue lies in the Call Forwarding settings.
Use Touchflo to go to @Settings' and hit 'All Settings' to enter the Windows menus. The following is in WM6.1 so maybe slightly different if you are using 6.5. Hit the 'Personal Tab' and select 'Phone'. Then select the 'Services' tab, highlight 'Call Forwarding' and then hit 'Get Settings...'.
You will then see a variety of settings and tock boxes that relate to call forwarding and in particular. In the drop-down box for 'Forward After:' change the value to something longer - like 30 seconds...hit ok, hit ok. Done

OMG! Thanks, left of centre. You saved me the trouble of returning the phone for a new one. Idiots at at&t should learn from guys like you that know whats going on. Much appreciated and thanks again for your help!!

Sorry for bringing this up from the dead but this was the only thread that was right on with the problem.
I have a captivate running perception and same problem.
I was just wondering if anyone knew how to fix or change the forwarding settings on this phone to prevent this exact problem?

I have the same problem with my xperia x10i. when someone calls me it rings once then just goes to vibrate mode...can someone help me fix this problem please Thank you in advance.

Kaiser ringer randomly swithces to vibrate! HELP!

This is my first time using this site and it's great! I'm sorry for any stupid questions I ask that may have been answered somewhere else already. I have the ATT Tilt/HTC Kaiser 8925 and love it...recently the ringer randomly switches to vibrate. It does it sometimes when I'm using the calendar/appointments and sometimes when I haven't even touched it. I've seen tons of posts on HTC Home versions that affect it but I found (then lost) a thread that said something about about a Registry Edit you could to to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated or any other thoughts that may help fix this. I keep missing calls and it's driving me crazy!! Thanks so much!
i haven't searched yet, but mine will switch to any level, i keep it on vibrate while at work(Kohl's) and today it switched to loud while in my pocket and i didn't realize it till my VC started to read an extremely long text in front of my boss. fortunately he thought it was the coolest thing ever but he said it will never happen again or i'm fired(ass hole) but yeah i will post what i find when i search later

Thanks so much for your help! Yeah, this is driving me crazy..pretty much every time I'm using the calendar/appointment fucntion, it switches automoatically to vibrate from ring and vibrate. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!!!
Are you using a stock ROM?
Unless people have had the exact same problem, it's going to be hard to help you without more info on what software is on your device.
If it does happen to be a random occurrence, a hard reset usually fixes it.
i have a similar problem with my tilt
i have noticed this hapening on my tilt which is running duttys latest rom. its only been happening in the last fed weeks.
ive also noticed that sometimes the phone will ring for a couple of seconds then go into vibrate mode as well.
i found my problem to be the settings in spb phone suite. if you have any profiles set etc if you change the system settings spb phone suite will automatically change them back after like 10-20 minutes. hope this is a help to some people. but i was about to go crazy till i sat and stared long and hard at my phone and realized what could also be the problem. i no longer have the issue!
i think this happens when your profile is set to automatic... it takes your status from your calender (if you have set it to busy in some meeting) it will switch to vibrate and if there is nothing for you in the calender it switches to the normal mode.....
I had the problem, then I flashed to L26 v6 and no more problems.

*Dumb question, but how and where do you SET your PROFILE? There's tons of options on the phone, but I don't know of anywhere to change something that says profile from automatic to something else? Any info. on that would be great and I'll try your solution. I'd rather not do a hard reset if I can help it. Thanks!
Having the same issue. Saw this post:

Not sure if it works yet, but good luck to others!

Looks like this might be due to HTC Home. It appears there is an update / fix:

Sounds like a network problem. Can you call out?
sorry about the really late reply the cable line went down leaiving me without internet.
yes i can make calls also i've notice if i press the volume key before the answer key i am able to answer the phone sometimes. though i would relly like to figure out a way to get it working regular.
Wipe and reload your rom and see if it still happens.
no problem solved i feel like a idiot for not doing that. i had ruled that out since i've been using the rom since jf released it and the problem only occured yesterday. thanks

Text msg problem!! help?

I've been having this problem for a few months now. I'm from holland and I already emailed my provider but the told me they can't help me.
So there are a few things happening:
My screen lights up but there's no message coming in. A few minutes (or hours) later I get the message that was supposed to be received at the time it lit up. Sometimes when I go to comm manager and turn the radio on and off or just soft reset the phone, I also receive the texts.
I send/receive messages when I start using the phone, like when you open a menu or something.
Sometimes I keep getting the same texts over and over again from the same person.
I've tried a few different ROMs so that can't be the problem.
Someone told me about flashing a new radio maybe that could do it?
Please help me??
Thanks!
Seems like the same problem as me
i'm also from the netherlands..
i hope someone knows a fix.

long delay placeing call? thanks

Can someone help me how come every so often I place press call after entering a number there can be a delay of 5 to 30 seconds where nothing happens. Or of I push the name of a recent call it has the same delay. If I push it many times sometimes it will continue placing new calls while I'm already called. I'm running Sprint 2.1 official. Thanks
you probably don't have very good service where you are, unless you deny that statement.
Only hit it once and you'll only make one call.
Sprint's rom is ridiculously slow and laggy.
More peopel could probably help you out with specific problems with sprint's rom on sprintforums.com or somewhere like that. NOT that we don't want to help, but problems often have different levels of depth, if you know what I mean. Or root and get ever CRAZIER problems and then stick around here!

thanks, but i think its the phone, because now when I click the green button the phone comes up immediately but nothing on the screen works. Its almost like clicking an image no beeps nothing.
Below is more detail of my problem
Can someone help me. How come every so often I try to place a call their is a long delay.
For example I will push the green call button to bring up the phone. Then I will click on a name from my recently used numbers and I will click the number I want to call and it will highlight then nothing. After 10 to 15 seconds does it vibrate and place the call and go to the screen with the timer and the end button. If I get impatient and keep pressing the number (selection goes green for a second) nothing happens for 10 to 15 seconds then the call is placed and it will continue dialing, holding, and conference call as I try to talk to that person.
This delay also happens when I dial a number, and the number keypad is slightly sluggish when dialing.
Please note I a running Sprint Official OS2.1 and even though the Phone Application is sluggish outside phone mode the device seems to run when when using other internet. I am also getting strong bars and EV.
I would really appreciate your help; I just got this phone 2 days ago and really like it, but this one fault is killing it for me.
Please Help me.
Thanks
please somebody help me other than that i really like this phone.

Since you are not rooted and not running a custom ROM, this is probably not the best place to ask for help. You should call Sprint directly or check out the website/forum listed above.....
This lag is common on this particular phone. Just look at all the threads about dialer lag. 2.1 made the dialer lag even worse IMO. A custom ROM may or may not fix it for you.
i'm run Aloysius and Darchdroid I have the lag too. I dont know the problem i just wait.
i run DC and its laggy too... i bet its the dialer app...
that huge delay in actually dialing the number is an issue with all of the ROM's based on the official 2.1 (and the last leak as well I believe). No idea why it happens, but I hope a dev manages to figure out how to fix it soon, because it's the biggest annoyance for me
lag everywhere
i agree, the dialing lag is very annoying. also I have issues when im using the web browser while trying to tap on the url bar or in a search field the phone just hangs and doesn't bring up the keyboard.
while my buddie is already looking at a web page or search results on his very responsive palm pre webos im stuck waiting swearing at my phone lol.
But given all the things you can do to androids compaired to webos ill take the lag.
It was so bad for me that I took my phone into a sprint store and showed them how f'ed up it was. They said that it was happening a lot...evidently they have an internal forum where these issues get posted and the tech I talked to at the store said he saw a ton of posts referencing this same issue. They told me, however, that my phone passed diagnostics and that I could make and receive calls, to which I responded, "sure, I can make calls, but it barely functions as a phone." They sent me on my way, and I figured that was that until I got a text 2 days later saying that my replacement phone was in.
When I went to pick it up, the store rep said, "We'll have to reload the update for you" and I told him not to bother. Whatever issues 1.5 had, they were better than the enourmous issues with 2.1. Of course, as soon as I got it home, I rooted it (the 2.1 root came out the next day) and had 2.1 running quick as a fox anyway.
I have had the same issue, but have discovered one important thing by looking at the logs and just observing... This does not happen when using WiFi. I have a log showing that this problem is related to turning the radio off in order to make the call. For those who do not know, this is unique to CDMA in that it cannot use both data and voice at the same time. For some reason it is taking forever to turn data off in order to make the call. This has been reported to Flipz and he is looking into it, but until then I guess you just have to put up with it or go back to a 1.5 rom.
For those to say that the problem doesn't exist on rooted phones or that he should go somewhere else is not giving any good advise.
I have been rooted for several months and never really had any problems with an extremely long delay until recently. . I know if I am rebooting my phone I have to wait a little bit to do anything, even after Sense has finished loading or i will have the same problem. I'm sure you were not rebooting your phone when this happened.
Here was my experience 2 days ago...
I tried making a call and pressed on the contacts name. It was just sitting there. After 20 seconds it still wasn't calling, so I pressed the name again and after 15 more seconds it began calling the person. And then it started dialing again. I hit End Call and attempted to do it again. I had the same problem. I then rebooted my phone and waited 5 minutes and tried again and had the same results. In between pressing the contact and the phone actually calling it just sat on the contact screen. I have had the same ROM running on my phone for 3 weeks and this was the first problem I had like this.
At first I thought it was with Sprint, but it should have atleast gone to the calling screen and said dialing if it was even attempting to call.
If you have had this problem was it just stuck on the dialer/contact screen or was it on the screen that says dialing/calling?
It gets stuck on the dialer/contact screen. I had this problem slightly with 1.5, but it is far worse in 2.1 including all official 2.1-based roms. The problem is present in all 2.1 based versions of Fresh and Fresh Toast.
I had this problem on every 2.1 ROM. It went away with Fresh Toast and the 710 Kernel. Now the most lagg I get on the dialer is between 1 or 2 seconds. Before it could be 10 seconds before the call placed. I am extremely happy with that overclocked ROM. Try it out if you want.

[Q] I can't answer incoming calls, no button works.

I am not sure how this happened but,I am unable to answer incoming phone calls. No matter what button I press, and I have answering mode enabled, also having answering key enabled or not I still can't answer. I don't know if this other glitch will help as a clue to figure this out or not but, the ringertone is stuck on default and rings as one long continuous ring with no break. If I go to settings and try to change the ringtones or notification tones, I'm unable to do that either. When I am selecting from the incoming calls section of sound in settings, in either phone or notification ringtones, when I choose between android or zedge the phone just freezes or sends me back to main settings screen. When it freezes, it really freezes. I have to pull the battery because the power button does nothing.
I'm about to flash a new ROM (not sure which yet), and was wondering if this problem will go away, or will it be persistent and plague me in the new ROM? Thanks in advance to anyone who wants to help me with this one. I'm trying to do things without having to ask for help, but sometimes being a noob has its limitations.
Anytime any of you need answers about your electrical in your house or business, I'll be glad to answer your questions. 17 years as a union journeyman electrician has taught me a few things. LOL
Full Wipe Rom should do away with the problem. Just watch as u restore apps and see if u got a bad app causing the prob.
