[Q] Cognition 5 - no incoming calls - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just moved to Cog 5 1.00 and now I cannot receive incoming calls. The screen goes blank save for the status bar and rings very quietly for a second and then drops the call. I unfortunately did not try calling it before I restored apps and system data. Could be the issue. Has anyone else seen this issue?
What would be the best way to roll back to an earlier status point? I assume I will have to set it back to factory but I'd rather try to identify the cause of the issue. Ideas?

This happens to you on on cog5? Did you touch any settings like band selection ?

The Cog chat room. The link was taken from the COG THREAD, where it would be more useful to post this since the devs monitor the thread.

Looks like it was a Titanium backup issue. I brought some settings along. The problem is I could not ID it. I went nuclear on it and wiped the system settings. Fixed now though.

Delayed Notifications in Cooked ROMS..

Hello,
I've been having a problem with a few of the custom builds (Timor, AthineOS, CellPro Evo), and one problem I've noticed with each of the ones I've used is that when I get a text it doesn't notify until I wake the screen back up. Once I do that it vibrates and rings, but its up 30min after I got the text. Is this a known problem with a fix or am I better off sticking with a stock ROM?
Thank You
Funny you mention this, because I'm having the same problem. I thought it may have been a tweak I'd done and was going to do a hard reset today.
The only cab I've installed is Microsoft MyPhone. And had to edit the reg to allow the changing of the notification light timing in the Sounds & Notifications settings.
Do you know if this happens before you've made any changes to settings or installed any software on the phone? I don't recall having any problems like that myself with Timor installed, but I'm also not sure I received a text in that time. I haven't tried the other ROMs you listed.
It seemed to happen after I edited the reg settings.
Doesn't seem to be a constant occurance though. I happened to me 12 hours ago, even after a soft reset. But now I just sent a test message to myself, and all is ok... weird
Well I've regularly installed My Phone, Marketplace, Bing, Groovefish, and MP3 Trimmer, but I'd rather not delete and hard reset everything to do a test if someone knows a fix
I haven't had this issue...I am using the Valkrie Firestorm 5 and even when my phone is sleeping my phone vibrates as I get SMS messages and emails...
Well I have hard reset and held off installing using the My Phone. Everything seems well with recieving on time...but now the screen turns on everytime i get a message. It didn't used to do that and I find it quite annoying..I looked around my settings and Advanced Config and couldn't find anything.
It happens in the stock HTC rom too.
It normally doesn't happen if you come out of the text messages and go back to the home screen after you reply to someone. It's a really annoying bug
Me too...
I thought it was the result of all the hacking, tweaking and breaking I've been doing on this flash since I've been using it as a "scratch pad" but the problem you are all describing sounds identical.
I will also second the Home screen suggestion. Hit 'End' after you are done messing with the phone to go back to the Home screen. There is definitely a notification bug related to not alarming/vibrating when not on Home screen.
Though I have observed this issue, this does not completely explain my problems. Sometimes I don't actually even receive the SMS or MMS until the next day or after rebooting my phone! Most of the time it's fine though. I'm going to do a clean flash and see if that gets rid of that issue.
Same Here
I have run across the same problem with a number of the cooked ROMs. I never really noticed the problem with the stock ROM though. In my experience some of the cooked ROMs are having a problem handling the text messaging. I have over 3000 text msgs in my backup and as soon as I try to view an older text, the systems tend to lag and freeze up to the point that I need to soft-reset. Im using Athine right now and so far it has handled the text msging just fine without freeze or lag, but it also seems to have the same notification delay bug that the other ROMs have.

Yeah I'm familiar with that bug. But I go back to the home screen 99% of the time then shut the screen. I'll get a message and the LED will start blinking, but only when I turn the screen back on will it ring and vibrate.
Same problem here with the cell pro rom

I have the problem with almost all of the ROM. Does anyone know if it could be a result of not using the right radio?
I could be wrong.. but I don't think it has anything to do with the radio. There doesn't seem to be any problem is receiving the message from the carrier, it's more-so the OS not notifying. This has only happened to me since trying the new WM 6.5.5 builds with Sense 2.5. Previous to these builds I have never had any issues, and only used EnergyROM with a COM2 build, and Sense 2.1

Im not sure about all the technical stuff your talking about...I just know that on almost every ROM I flash, when the phone goes to sleep, they seem to not do anything. Its only when I wake it up do I receive text messages, notifications and the weather doesnt update on its own in the prescribed time its supposed to according to the settings I have selected.
The radio version may affect the quality of your reception. So if you have no reception then that will obviously delay texts getting through, and stop you being able to get to the weather servers. But I can't see why it should have anything to do with delayed notification of texts that are already on your phone.
I realise this might not help you much, but on my EnergyROM (see my signature for full details), my phone gets texts fine when it's asleep.
The weather isn't designed to get automatically updated when your phone is asleep though. There was a recent thread on how to change the registry to make it do so, if you haven't done that then your weather stuff may well be acting correctly.

Awesome...thank you so much for the information and help

WHY DONT YOU JUST USE A ENERGYROM????? I dont have any issues with those roms and i just updated to the .88 radio. no issues as of yet.

How do I do a reinstall of FRF85B? Weird buggities.

I did manual updates all through the Froyo pre-release process, and now I am seeing these bugs that others apparently see fixed with FRF91:
- WiFi disconnects from my home router randomly (was fixed in FRF83, broken again now for me in FRF91)
- Car Dock nightmares - it keeps forgetting the speakerphone settings, touchscreen unresponsive until off/on action, randomly uses N1 speaker instead of dock speaker for navigation directions
- Vibrate 2-step volume down option lost (this may be a feature but still I hope not)
Is there a SIMPLE way for me to just 'reinstall' or 'repair' the OTA FRF85B, much like you can reinstall Windows over the top of itself without losing all your settings?
Key: I don't want to lose my apps and settings at all!
If you're rooted you could use titanium backup and flash an earlier build.
If not, you probably would have to use a PASSIMG then update to 85B - but you'd lose your settings. The market sync will give you all your apps back once you sign in though.

N1 w/ XDA App
Thanks. Is it actually possible to have a botched install of FRF91, leading to the above possible issues, or would my Froyo update either 'work properly' or 'not at all'?
Just don't want to go through all the trouble of reinstalling from a clean factory build for no reason.
And if it is possible, can you clarify how Titanium Backup will help me? Will it provide a simple way to just 'install 2.1' in a few clicks?
not sure what you mean about the vibrating deal, but on my phone when i press down volume, it never shows a silent icon, the lowest i can get is the "vibrate" icon, its still silent but it reads like its on vibrate. I cant remember if this started at the initial unofficial froyo or one of the later versions. Does anyone else experience this, or maybe its supposed to be this way? i can live with it (not important enough to start a whole thread), its just annoying...
Well for some ridiculous reason Google removed the lovely 2-step vibrate option (where you would press volume down once for vibrate and again for silent), and changed the Sound settings area so that you can now only choose whether the phone vibrates in silent mode or doesn't vibrate in silent mode.
I loved this feature before. The iPhone had to have a dedicated switch for this, but Google solved it with ingenuity. Now in their infinite stupidity, they removed it completely. Doh.

HELP. all incoming calls go to speakerphone in CM7

i'm not completely sure, but i remember seeing an option on CM7 somewhere that said incoming calls to speakerphone. i turned it on, then i updated to 7.02, now i can't find that option anywhere, but it's still turned on. and ALL my incoming calls turn the speakerphone on without any way to stop it.
i've spent hours going through all 120 apps in my phone and in every single setting trying to find something to turn it off. I've even used titanium backup to try and wipe the settings and CM settings with no luck.
I don't mind this being a toggle on/off like the carmode app, but i can't have it always on. I have to ignore important calls now just because it takes 10 seconds for the phone to actually let me turn off the speaker.
so please, if anyone can help me here. i'm about ready to wipe the phone but i seriously don't want to waste and entire day doing that so someone please help.
I font remember ever seeing this option in my cyan 7. Interesting.

Yeah I don't recall that settings.
maybe it wasn't and i'm just crazy, but i'm still having this issue, and i'm about to wipe my phone to fix it, so if anyone knows any other way i'd seriously appreciate it.
Maybe try to wipe Cyanogenmod Settings using Titanium Backup? If all else fails...instead of doing a full wipe...try the /system only wipe that tamasek has in the nightly forum somewhere...that way...your data and apps are still in tact...and can just flash a new nightly...then if it still doesn't work...I guess you already know what to do.
I can't believe it but this actually happened to me today. I hung up and had the caller call back and it went back to normal.
Did you ever get it fixed? I put the newest stable version on my EVO and I have the same issue all outgoing calls go right to speakerphone and all incoming go right to speakerphone..
Also I notice carmode starts up on it's own as well.. but turning it off incoming/outgoing calls will still right to the speakerphone

[Q] No display on call receive

I looked around but couldn't find any one else having this problem.
On my Note since this morning whenever I receive a call the display is blank. No information whatsover. Also there are no buttons to answer/reject the call. I'm left with no option but to wait for the call to end and then see in the Phone application who called. Even that doesn't always work since a lot of numbers appear as Private.
Please help. I have no idea how to resolve it without rebuilding it.
Device - GT-N7000
Firmware - 2.6.3 KK5
Kernel - Franco 9
Unfortunately since I could not identify the cause of the trouble I reverted back to a really old Nandroid backup and everything was fine. Not content with being unaware of the cause of the trouble I used Titanium tool to start uninstalling apps and checking. After close to two hours of testing I realized that if the StatusBar application is crashed or disabled, the call prompt stops appearing. I can only imagine that something went wrong with the StatusBar in the configuration I had. It's a pity though since none of the apps were frozen or removed.
Anyway hope this information helps anyone else having this problem.

Can't Answer Incoming Calls!

This ones throwing me for a loop
Turbo has been brilliant aside from one tiny issue that i'm only now realizing...
Upon Receiving an incoming call my phone rings & vibrates - but will not display any alert on the screen (or lock screen) that there is an incoming call. If I unlock the phone as it's ringing the normal home screen is displayed and after a ring or two I receive the below "Mobile Data not available" prompt. Pressing ok results in the phone going back to the homescreen with once again, no further dialog to answer/ignore/mute the call (nothing in the notification bar either). Eventually the call will make it to voicemail as i can't answer it, and i get a prompt missed call notification.
Items i've checked so far:
disabled apps - re-enabled to make sure nothing got zapped that's interfering
Mobile data is enabled under settings
OTA Update was applied & Phone works fine otherwise, solid 4G service in populated area...
Thoughts/ideas?
TIA! :good:
Edit: (can't post images/links as i don't have enough posts)
Note the missed call notification icon is displayed from a previous call when as i was trouble shooting:

Have you tried a factory reset? -- Don't install any apps or change any settings, give your phone a ring after the reset, if it goes through then start installing or changing whatever settings, BUT while doing that if there's anything you suspect may alter the phone calls; test it again and see if you can find the culprit.
Solved!
Dialer app had "show notifications" box unticked
Not sure how that happened
for anyone experiencing the same issue:
Settings>Apps>All>Dialer - confirm the notification box is checked
was right about to wipe the phone and reset, glad i stumbled across it:good:
Wished I would have seen this thread yesterday. I had the same problem. Phone would ring, but I had no answer icon show up for me to click on. I finally took the phone into Verizon and they did a full wipe or factory default. That fixed the problem, but, I had to redo everything.

My Turbo had same problem. I stopped by Verizon store in mall and 3 people looked at it and they are sending me a new one. After reading this post I checked notifications on dialer app and its fixed. Guess I'll give them the new one back when it comes.
