[Q] Cannot receive calls with Perception 10.3 - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I just flashed Perception 10.3 and I can do almost everything (make calls, send and receive SMS, data up and down) but I cannot receive calls. When I call from another phone, if I am on the H network, it rings for about half a second, then the screen goes black, sometimes there is a message that pops up but it goes away before I can even read a word, the phone vibes 3 times and then I lose connection until I hang up the phone I'm calling with. On the calling phone I get this message:
"The number or code you have dialed is incorrect, please check the number or code and dial again. (message 7, switch 076)"
When I'm on the 3g network, nothing happens on the Cap, it just goes to voicemail.
Any ideas what I can do to fix it?

Did you try a factory reset and then reflashing?

Flash to stock, Master Clear with Odin or GSM Master Reset with the dialer code, and reflash Perception.

And probably not a good idea to restore system data with titanium if thats what you did.

Yeah thats a problem when reinstalling system data from TiBu on a different system.
ie. 2.1 --> 2.2
When your using TiBu only backup Apps/Data

Thanks for the response!
I did Master Clear and flash back to stock with Odin before flashing Perception, but I also backed up/restored system data with TiBu, it looks like that's where I went wrong. I thought since I was going from a 2.2.1 ROM to a 2.2.1 ROM, it would be alright, and since I didn't know what was considered system data and what was app data, I just went ahead with the whole Maryanne. I guess I'll have to re-flash tomorrow.
Thanks again!

[Q] SGS issue force close on receive call

Hello
I just installed Darky's 5.2 ROM over my stock 2.1-update1 and everything works fine, but whenever I receive a call something (dialer?) gets a force close and the call is rejected together with a temp. loss of signal.
Then everything is back to normal...
Any steps I'd take? I'm pretty new to this.
have the exact same problem... can dial out no problem but only receiving calls. so thinking about whether I should flash another rom until this is fixed.....
I was wondering could I just do a factory reset and then flash the rom over again? Do I have to disable the voodo lagfix before? Not too sure how this works heh.
I don't have this problem. But whenever i am in the game "flick kick football," I get some random hangs, and is forced to close. I suspect that happens when I get incoming calls. Anyway to confirm this?

I have the same problem. I recived a call, something force closed, the signal dropped and i lost the operator. I had similar problems with bluetooth and file manager before on this ROM, but I re-flashed it and everything worked again.
no problem here with Darky's 5.2 ROM and the Clean Guide Instruction, i just received a call without any problems
I used the easy guide and did not clean anything or do a factory reset, I just followed it like a dumbo. I came from 2.1-update1 stock JM5 kernel with a ton of apps installed, if that helps.
hey I think I found a solution to this. I went to recovery mode, wiped cache, wiped dalvik, did a factory reset and voila, receiving calls works without force closing.
phew.. was about to download another rom. anyhow, hope that works for you Jule!
still a few problems with the ROM that i encountered:
- my AT&T home button is not working.... not to sure whether there will ever be a fix for it
- media volume, even set to max, is not working when playing movies and youtube.

[Q] I cant download my SMS messages!?!?

My captivate wont download MMS for some reason. It just says Downloading for a while then itll go back to the download button. no picture will pop up.
Im running Phoenix Ultimate 2.2.1 with hardcorespeedmod
But i havent had any problems with it so i doubt its the ROM.
I have tried downloading thru wifi, do i have to have connect to atts 3G to download them?
ahh please help.

boot into recovery, wipe cache then go into advanced menu and wipe dalvik cache.

I had this happen once also. I flashed several different ROMs and even went back to stock twice. It would refuse to download MMS at all no matter what I did. It saw the messages but wouldnt download them. SMS still worked fine.
And then it just started working again. I attributed it to some glitch within ATT.
However, I never tried wiping the caches as suggested above. I would try that for sure. If it doesnt work, try calling ATT? My phone was a work number and customer service wouldnt talk to me about it without the password which I didnt have.
Report back if the cache clearing works in your case so others can learn.

Yes you have to be connected to att 3G. Mms doesn't work on wifi
wiping the cache did nothing, i guess it requires att's service because i broke and gave into their stupid 2gb plan and now i can recieve them. thanks for the help though guys.

Yes it does require an ATT data connection. It was one of the main things I tell people when they want to block data on their contracts. If you have data blocked then mms don't work as each mms uses 1kb of data that you don't get billed for as it is covered by the messaging plans.

No phone calls after Superuser update.

Hi,
Today I updated Superuser to v3.0-beta 3 (33) binary v3.0.3.2 and now I'm not able to make phone calls and when reboot or turn off phone, it frezzes (semi-black screen) and I need to remove battery.
I was on Market looking for some apps, when suddenly the phone started to be slow, then I got Superuser fail message and it offered me to updated, which I did. Everything went smootly, no error messages. After some hours I tried to make calls and found I'm almost not able. I say almost because for some numbers, after 20 or more seconds, the phone makes connection and releases the call. I tried also with 3G and Edge.
However, after all this I'm still able to receive calls and send sms.
This is my info:
Android 2.2.2
Kernel 2.6.32
SW Nova v7
What should I do? I'm hesitate to wipe out because I'm not sure if it will help, as SU does not modify when wipe out.
However, if flash is needed, it is ok. I don't have so much apps or info.
I appreciate your help.
Thank you.
Try a different card (SIM i mean)
If it's not working either, then do factory reset
AFAIK, factory reset in setting->privacy is more powerfull than wipe in CWM

try to fix permissions too. Either via ROM Manager or CWM.

MMS Not working

Hey all, I installed JB a few days a go (LQ4, rooted) and it has all worked just fine until now since I can't seem to download or send MMS messages. I've tried just about everything, including changing the auto-download, using WCDMA only and so on. The APN is correct.
The weird thing is that when i try to download a MMS the cell reception just completely dies sometimes and shows me that "not available"-sign before "rebooting" or whatever and giving me back the signal. This makes me think that this problem lies deeper than a few settings in the phone, but is there anything i can try before i restore it back to gingerbread?

Have you done factory reset in recovery after flashing JB with Odin?

No, worth trying? I figured since the LQ4, as far as I know is straight from samsung it should work fine as an update without a reset.. What will I lose from the reset?

You will lose apps installed, its data, your data (not from internal memory) like phonebook etc... But you can backup apps with Titanium Backup, and other stuff too.

Flashed to Page Plus but no Incoming Calls

I flashed my phone HTC one to page using DFS and I pretty much just copied everything from the donor but everything works but I just cant make outgoing calls. I get a message telling me that there was an Error and i should turn my phone off then back on. Do you have any idea of what went wrong ? I tried changing prls and radios and restarting the whole flashing back to zero and even resting the phone back to zero with the RTN menu. i flashed this phone the same way to Verizon and worked fine but outgoing calls not working. Anyone have an idea what could be the problem ?

Hello
Make sure you have the correct ESN in the phone. Also make sure your phone number is attached to that ESN.
