[Q] Outgoing call ring once then drop-SOLVED - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, I need some feedback here. Backstory. I flashed about 6 or 7 times today while working on Firefly and modem/kernel combinations. I had to problems with some of the combos, but eventually went back to Cog 3.
Now, at some point during my flashing I tried to call my wife. When I selected her contact and dialed, the phone would ring one time then disconnect. I tried a couple times and figured I needed a One-click to stock. So after loading stock I tried again. I get the same problem with a stock rom. To test things out, I tried calling other numbers. I can dial any other number but my wife's. She can call me just fine. So I tried a few experiments, flashed Firefly, Cog, Phoenix, nothing works.
**Disclaimer** My wife is not a techy. She swears she didn't block me, and I'm sure she doesn't know how, so if she did it must have been an accident. She is using the HTC HD2 with and Android ROM.
The only odd thing I can find on my phone is that when I use the secret code to check phone info, there is no CSC code, the field is blank. So, flashed stock again, still no CSC, flashed a few others, still nothing.
I'm downloading the odin version of stock from Samfirmware.com because it used to have individual pda, csc, and modem files. I plan I flashing the CSC manually, of course I'm in a hotel and the download is taking about an hour and a half.
Has anyone experienced anything at all like this? If so, any suggestions? Also, is there an option in android to block calls like that, not send to voicemail, just ring once then disconnect?
Thanks
Solved- I was on the auto reject list. She has no clue how i got on it, sure. Anyway, Settings, Call Settings, All Calls, Auto Reject. For those that aren't familiar with it.

I do not know what to say about your issues.
To get your csc back flash docs rom from the kitchen. You can select csc jh7 which will return your product code. Do not know if that will in any way fix your issue though

Thanks for the reply. I've found that most ROMs include the CSC info, but for some reason my phone isn't taking it. That's why I'm grabbing the odin files.
I did find one thing. I went into Settings, Call Settings, All Calls, and Show My Number. I selected Hide. Then I called my wife's number and it went through. I'm guessing now I am blocked somehow by number.
Haha, I realize how this sounds too, wow, should I worry?

Calls going straight to answerphone?

Hi, can anyone help me please?
I'm losing my company voda phone (sim card) as I'm being made redundant, and swapped it out for an Orange payg sim last week. All seemed to be working fine. However, I tried to call my phone today, and it just goes straight to answerphone. I contacted Orange CS, and they sent me some sim updates. Rebooted, and Orange CS managed to place a call to my phone. Sorted. Or so I thought. Just tried again, and it's still going to answerphone. Have I messed my phone up somehow? I know my 2 year old daughter was palying with it at the weekend, and managed to call one of my friends for 2 mins!! Could she have changed something else?
Check call forwarding in the phone settings.
You can adjust how long it takes to divert to voicemail here. Perhaps this is your culprit?
Make sure that the top checkbox (forward all incoming phone calls) is unchecked also.
Thanks for the suggestion, but seems to have sorted itself out now
I have been swapping the sim cards around, and trying different phones. I guess one of the reboots must have done something? Anyway, all working again
Check This Out
All folks who have this issue may want to check out this thread.
The calls going straight to voicemail may be a symptom of NSI as defined in the thread linked above. As of right now, there is no cure except a soft reset or perhaps going back to a 6.0 ROM.

Phone rings twice and sends to voicemail.

The caller on the other end says it rings all the way through (5 rings and then to voicemail).
It has done this with several ROM's, the stock HTC cupcake, to JF 1.5, JACHero, and now I am on cyanogen's 3.62 ROM. The radio is 62.50S.20.17H_2.22.19.26I.
The phone will do this even with a clean wipe. No apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Check your call forwarding settings. Sometimes, they like to play with themselves and set it as "forward all calls to voicemail". These settings won't show it, because the changes are on the T-Mobile server, not your phone. Only having 2 rings sounds like it connects to the network and then gets pushed away from it, so most likely it's not a problem with your phone.
If you happen to have an old T-Mobile phone laying around, trying switching SIM cards and see if anything changes.
Figured it out. Ran a GSM code
*61*1[vm access number]*11*n#
n= seconds before forwarding. Set it to 25 and it rings all the way through.
Thanks for the info lukekirstein

Where would you run this code at? I want to be able to set my ring time longer so that it takes longer for it to forward to voicemail.

Open up your dialer and dial it like you would a phone number.
In my case I entered *61*18056377243*11*25# and dial. Runs the code and then in a few seconds it is done. But check to see if your voicemail number is different than mine.

Cool, was able to set the Voicemail to connect in 35 seconds. Thanks!
I get the error:
Call forwarding.
Connection problem or invalid MMI code.
I've carefully entered the code three times, always get the same reply.
I checked my voicemail number, and it's correct.
Any ideas?

What are you trying to do?
Trying to get my phone to wait 20-30 seconds before going to voicemail.
I get, maybe, 2 rings before people are transferred. If my finger isn't already on the button, chances are I can't answer the phone.
These are the codes I tried (as per the instructions above):
*61*18056377243*11*20# (for 20 secs) -and-
*61*18056377243*11*25# (not to go to voicemail)
18056377243 is my voicemail number.
Neither worked.

Are you on a flex pay account? Also, you should only need one 1 MMS number, because that's the immediate point it re-routes to voicemail.
re Flexpay, to be honest, I'm not 100% sure. The wife set all of this up before we were married and we've just continued it. I seem to recall a mention of something like that, but I could very well be wrong.
I'm assuming that this option wouldn't be available to FP customers. Would 611 be able to make a change to fix it? The 2 ring thing is seriously causing problems on this end.
TIA

Call forwarding is not available to flex pay customers and thus, custom MMS coding will not work. If this is the case, you should contact T-Mobile (either way, probably a good idea) and talk to them to see what might be causing the problem.
What ROM are you using? Some of the slower ROMS can create dialer lag.
Asked my wife. It is Flexpay. So that solves that.
Thank you so much for your reply.
That got us going in the right connection.
I am using Cyan's rom right now. But this was the way it was ever since we got into any 'Cupcake" versions (OTA or modded). My thoughts are the radio or a tower issue, but that's an uneducated guess. I rarely get phone calls anytime except when I'm home, so it's hard to pinpoint. So I followed your suggestion and tried to call 611 a short while ago. Got through to CS who walked me through some stuff (their basic scripted thing, all of which I've already tried), and it didn't work. So they tried to send me to tech support, and I guess it was either to late or they couldn't connect for whatever reason, so I have to call back in the morning.
Thanks again for heading me in the right direction.

[Q] My Galaxy S auto-rejects all incoming calls

Hi there folks. I got a Bell Samsung Galaxy i9000M about a month ago or so. Initially, I was very disappointed that Android 2.2 wasn't available. After some digging through these forums, I discovered Doc's Froyo ROM thread and read that some people on Bell had used this successfully. I followed the instructions from his thread (am currently uisng Doc's Froyo v7.6.2 JPO, and my phone is rooted as well). Ever since I changed firmware to Doc's v7.6.2 Froyo versus the original Bell UGJH2 (i believe that's what it was called) Android 2.1, my phone auto rejects all incoming calls.
What happens is that any time someone calls my phone by calling my phone #, my phone rings once, then the call is rejected (the phone I call from says it got rejected), and on my Galaxy S, I lose network signal completely (3G/phone signal) for a few seconds when this happens.
Is this a known issue with the ROM I am using.. do I have some sort of option turned on that I shouldn't? I need some help here. Is this something my phone carrier (Bell) is doing cause I hacked the phone?
To clarify, I am perfectly able to make outgoing calls to phone numbers, and I am able to browse internet with 3G/HSPA just fine using Bell's network. Before I did the upgrade to this Froyo ROM, I was not experiencing this issue. I hope someone here can point me in the right direction, I really need to get this fixed because right now, no one can call me.
Really, no replies? There's no one else that has had this issue? I want to flash my phone to the new-er Froyo JPK3 that's supposed to be for Bell.. anyone have a clue whether that should fix it? What about just doing a factory reset?
i have the same problem, different carrier though, german o2
i think it might be cuz of a wrong CSC
i reflash now and report back
My initial guess was that my ROM is not suited for my phone/carrier.. but since I was able to make outgoing calls, use 3G and send/receive texts, I dismissed that idea. Especially since there were other people using Doc's v7.6.2 on Bell with supposedly success results.
So what I did was I went into Clockwork Recovery Mode, and did a factory reset. Now my phone works fine. Beats me what the problem was. Must've been some app I installed I guess.
i had the same problem. i did what you did. factory reset. then used titanium backup to restore all my apps and system settings. thank God for titanium backup lol.
I happens to me too from the 1st time i flash my phone to froyo.. u need to reinstall the correct csc. After a clean flash insert your sim card then dial *#272*IMEI No.# then choose the right csc of your phone. It will make a factory reset after the installation of new csc.

[Q] Unable to Accept voice calls

Flashed Cognition 3.04 over the weekend. Love it!
Just one problem, any time I get an incoming call, the phone will ring and then the app will crash. Users go to 3rd party voicemail, so I can get messages. I can dial out without a problem.
SMS and other data seems to work fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm on ATT in the US.
Well, I just saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926513
I did a search - didn't see that.
Looks like I'm reflashing.
I think I know the answer, but I'll ask anyway...do I really need to go back to stock, root and reflash, or can I just reflash since I'm flashing the same ROM?
Reflashed Cognition and everything is golden.

[Q] Can't send text messages on vibrant? please help

I got a new galaxy s bell vibrant today because i lost my old one :'(. After unlocking and flashing for hours (it was difficult because it came with froyo 2.2 and was hard to downgrade), i finally got it running darkys extreme 9.something and I've got data, calls... everything working well with good reception.
The Issue: I cant SEND text messages, but I can receive them
i've checked my APN settings and they seem to be fine.
Any ideas?
Edit: I've noticed that my phone does not know its own number (shows up as unknown)
Put A ROM ON that does not break your phone .

I encountered a similar issue just yesterday after weeks of no issues. After some digging, found that the SMSC number is missing.
Which provider are are you using? Once you know, do a search for <provider> smsc number.
I presume you may be using the stock messaging app. If so, go to Menu, Settings, Message Center. Enter here.
When I tried via codes option, it would not work.
I hope this helps.
resolved!

Thanks for the input, I ended up calling rogers before reading this and the problem was i didnt have the messaging centre configured, like you suggested. adding the number fixed the problem, thanks!
Yeh you could have read that on the Darky rom posts .
