Hi All,
I have this problem with my SGS that a call gets disconnected too frequently. I have found it difficult to have a conversation more than 20 mins without a call drop once or maybe sometimes even 4 times. I think i have traced the reason for this after many months of noticing... Every time the call gets disconnected, i see that "E" symbol that pops up on top. You know... the one for data transmission? I think every time some data is transferred on to the phone during a call the call gets disconnected. Is there a solution to this?

Two nights ago my tilt was charging and the red light was constant and would not go away.I read on the forum that if i inserted the battery in and out numerous times i'd hear a pop and the light would go to green which it did.i started to make a call or two and no problems. Next morning it showed the 3g on the top but when i tried to make a cll, it would not even ring on other end and it would say call ended. This happened a few times. I did a oft reboot and this time the Edge network showed up on the top and the phone worked ok. next call, it automatically switches to 3g and nothing .I called attech support and after 45 mins they said that it must be a tower problem. i said how hell can that be when my son's lg vu is on 3g and it works perfectly.so tonite i go for the 3rd time to the att store and the guy does a hard reset and for next 6 calls it works great. Now again when it shows 3g on top i cannot make or receive any calls but intermittently it goes to edge and it works. What in the world is going on? I am about to toss this bloody thing intothe river!!!
I've had this problem with my phone for a few months now and I've determined its not specific to any certain ROM. Currently I'm running Manup's eclair ROM, but I've had this happen on every rom.
The problem is that my phone will ring, signaling someone is calling, but will not show who is calling for a good 3 or 4 rings, then when I try to answer it (using the hard keys or the answer button on the screen) it does nothing. Then it goes back to home and says I missed the call.
After this happens I am unable to make any calls after, and the phone seems to reset it's signal, or sometimes the whole phone will reboot. When i say reset it's signal I mean that the phone will lose service then find it again, as if I were to change the data connection speed (2g or 3g) in the settings pane. Then for a good 5 mins I am unable to make or receive calls, dialing a number and pushing call does absolutely nothing. Then suddenly it will all start working again.
Its very annoying and usually happens when the phone is sitting idle, but I've had it happen when I've been using the phone, like typing a text message. When it's ringing I will sometimes get force close message saying that the phone.apk process is not responding, which makes me believe that it's just a problem of the phone app not getting enough resources, from the cpu or ram, to run properly and causing it to time out.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
hi,
I've got some problems with my G1.
Recently i used CM 5.0.8 where i had some problems with calls.
From time to time my phone just mute the call so that i can't hear the other side, and vice versa.
Some times it even disconnects the whole call.
it doesn't matter if i'm calling to a cell phone, or normal phone...
I read (and thought about that already) that the call gets muted for about 5-6 seconds when a e-mail is pushed to the phone, but i'm not shute if this was evry time i got muted.. (at least one time saw that i got an email)
i tested it a few minutes ago, and after around 30 minutes of sitting and holding my normal phone, i decided to switch the phones, so i replaced my short usb cable (front panel) with my stock usb cable, because i can sit normaly while holding it with this cable. i sent a e-mail to my own g-mail account and after 5-6 seconds of no sound, i could here me saying "test, te" and then got disconnected...
anyone got ideas what this could be?
here is the relevant logcat log.

P.s.: atm i'm on FroYo SPF 2.4 (with full wipe) but nothing changed..
Hey there.
I have a stock Samsung Galaxy S4 Active on the AT&T network. Recently, I've been plagued by a number of troubles.
Bit of background:
For a while, I had the most bizarre issue: the screen thought I was touching it when I wasn't, near the bottom-middle of the screen, and would attempt to open/click on anything in that area. Often turning the screen on and off would help, for a little while. I was reaching my wits' end, because that would obviously be very frustrating to someone who uses their phone frequently throughout the day.
I thought maybe it had been new software I had installed, so I did a factory reset. Problem remained. I factory reset with NO backups. Problem remained. I updated to 4.4.2 via OTA. Problem remained...
And then mysteriously went away on its own.
I've been working in tech for a decade now, mainly in PC and server architecture, so I know better than to look a gift horse in the mouth - but I also know better than to think a problem that "mysteriously" goes away is gone for good. So the first part of my question: does anyone know what could have possibly been causing this?
I'm not super phone-savvy. I've rooted and flashed a few phones in the past couple years, but I'm by no means developer-level.
---------------------
Which brings me to my next problem... around the time that this issue went away, another one cropped up. Randomly, my phone will stop sending/receiving texts/calls, and the data connection will not function. This will continue until I turn on airplane mode and turn it off--at that point I receive all my missed texts, and it works again... sometimes for 5 minutes, sometimes for nearly 2 days. It's really frustrating. I've tried factory resets, I've tried restoring default APNs... but I'm at my wit's end with this. Can anyone help?
Thanks!
I should add that, with my last issue, it still shows a data connection in the notification bar - but there is none, or at least, no activity on it. It doesn't simply act as if it's in airplane mode and go "wah no data network" as soon as I try using it--it just simply hangs for ~30 seconds, then times out. Messages don't get received, webpages don't load, calls don't get placed, etc.
Hello all,
i spent quite some time researching my issue and found out that there is a bunch o people with this problem. The downside is, none of the recomended fixes seem to work.
Description: I recently got a S4 active i9295 with stock rom. Everything clean, nothing custom on it(i belive). For a couple of hours it worked like a charm, then, when i want to call someone, the transition from contacts to dialing screen lags a bit and then it goes into dialing and thats about it. Nothing else happens from there on. I loose signal and it keeps showing that it dials (i let it like this for about 15 minutes and nothing happend). I cannot end the call, it remains stuck in "dialing" mode, i can use all the other functions though. After a restart it works again. Same goes for sending SMS. The icon spins and spins but never sends the SMS, only after a reboot. Also when someone calls me, they get a "no answer" signal and my phone just looks ok, like normal standby but when i want to call back, it freezes at dialing.
I tried 3-4 different stock 4.4.2 roms, hard reset, wipe/clear cache, safe mode... It works fine for 15-20 calls/2-3 hours and then it does it again. After that point it only gets worse and it happens more frequently.
Any ideas on what could cause this or how to permanently fix it? Unfortunately, returning the phone is not really an option.
Thanks to all, best regards.
No one?
