Hello there.
I have a big problem, recently i decided to root my X8, install xRecovery, and finally flash GingerDX v019 so i could enjoy the benefits of 2.3 on my phone, since SE's costumer service and device support just suck.
Everything is working just fine, including wi-fi and data transmission, bluetooth, etc, except for one big thing: the phone calls (incoming and outgoing)
The weird thing is, after i reboot the phone, i can make or receive one call, but just one... after that if i try to call anyone it just says "call ended", and if someone tries to call me, they hear the service providers message instead of my phone ringing.
I have GingerDX v019 with no add-ons and stock kernel, i've installed a few apps but no task manager/killer... Help?
Thank you in advance...
P.S: I can however send and receive sms's without problem, and i've installed Go Contacts EX/dialer as suggested in another thread to a user with this problem on GDX v015.
The only way for now that i found to prevent this bug is to have the data connection always on (on stock 2.1 i turned everything off when i was not using and never had a problem)
Full wippe install again gdx via cwm full wippe and it should work

I installed via xRecovery, you think that might be the problem?
Yes it is. You must install gdx via cwm. Try and you will see that everything work

It will be a major pain in the a** installing and configuring everything again, but if that's what i have to do... Thank you very much
UPDATE: Just installed via CWM, and my little-big bug seems to be dead and buried, Thank You once again :-D
No problem....

Hey, I am wondering if you can help. My mate just got an X8 from ebay but cannot make calls from it, much like what is described above. Is there a guide on how to fix this?
Thanks in advance for your time and help
Cheers
Chris
The problem i had was caused by changing the software and flashing a custom rom the wrong way. If your mate cannot make calls from it and the phone is in stock condition (with the original software), then the problem is the phone itself. I suggest a complaint to the person that sold the phone and if that does not solve the problem, report the person to eBay. If the payment was made via Paypal, the refund is almost immediate.

I'm having the same issue too for com.android.phone. EXACTLY the same as u. I lose signal for a few secs then it's ok again.
Look in the "Stock 2.3.4" thread, there is a cmw.zip with a fixed Phone.apk, just flash it via CWM...

Next time you may should effort more time and search for it by yourself instead of letting others do that

your kernel??
I also get this on JVH (and JVB before that) - always phone dialler searching for contacts by entering digits. Also using Go SMS or stock SMS client it sometimes happens.
CF Root.
I have even flashed 2.2.1 and upgraded to 2.3.3. though Kies. Still the same. It's driving me nuts.
Same fc issue. I had to revert back to 2.3.3 again. Very annoying. Another thing everybody i am talking told me to speak more loudly because they can not hear me and that my voice is not clear.

I had the exact same problem with JVH (but not with any other firmware, including JVP). I tried to re-flash JVH (with re-partition), but it persisted.
I then went for an even older FW (an Eclair ROM), then re-flashed JHV (with bootloaders) and it worked just fine.
I still don't know what caused the problem, but that's how I solved it... Hope this helps!

i did the same thing yesterday night and now testing the jvp..

Why you guys even did not read the first page instead of posting rubbish?
Shame on you!
I was on a call and it FC'd and network signal was lost as well.
I dont know if FC was due to lost signal or lost signal because it FC'd, either way its a major bug in JVP.
Sorry man but are you stupid?
I had that too but only 1 time, after i hang up phone suddenly lost network and after cuple of seconds it was back. No FC no errors. Maybe it is becouse of dirty sim card, i had samsung i5700 before and had to clean sim card, after cleaning it never happend again.
anyone experiencing this problem? I'm getting A LOT of crashes.
I'm not using any task killers what so ever.
Rooted or not rooted? Stock ROM? Custom ROM? Under what conditions does it crash?
Stock ROM and I have no idea what the circumstances are, it seems sporadic.
Hmm. Are you rooted? You could try fixing the permissions using the ROM Manager app if so. If not, perhaps a re-flashing of the RUU might be in order to fix it.
Hi!
I am having the same problem. My Acer Liquid E keeps crashing. It is reproduceable: when I log on the network the first call I receive is without problem, when I receive the second call com.android.phone crashes and the network is dropped (input SIM key). Then I can again receive one call without problem.
My phone is rooted (z4root) and I use Titanium Backup. I can solve the problem by resetting to factory settings. But it keeps coming again after a couple of days. Of course I would like to know what causes this but at first I would be very happy to know how to get rid of the problem when it is there ... Titanium is not so helpful:
When I restore the Titanium backups:
-I first restored my user applications plus settings without problems, after this everything still works
-Then I restored some of the green marked backups in Titanium Backup. After this the phone starts to have this problem again.
Does anybody know which backup this might be? I mean: solving the problem itsself would be great but at first it would be nice to be able to get the phone working quicker than factory reset. Maybe this could be achieved by resetting to an old backup with Titanium Backup (just need to know which one ...)
Help would be appreciated! Been browsing the net a long time and could find lots of ideas how to solve this but none worked so far.
My system settings:
-Acer Liquid E
-FroYo from the start (updated from .8 to .14 when I first had the problem)
-removed some apps from the rom - but nothing essential and I know that non-essential sounding things like maps or talk are actually essential. I removed things like twitter, roadsync, etc.

daniu, unfortunately it's unlikely anyone here will be able to help you as you have a completely different phone. This forum is only for the HTC Incredible S.
Hi!
I know ... but I am not really sure this is a problem of my specific phone. I read a lot about this kind of problems for many different phones. Mine is not really that common - but I think I will crosspost - thanks for the hint
Daniel
Actually this is also happened to my IS, running ARHD 1.1.5 with latest radio.
I notice this bug after i flashed my radio to non-stock radio.
I haven't try to revert back to the original radio, and the bug remains mystery.
com.android.phone FCs can be caused by incompatible older version sim cards. Try consulting a retail store of your carrier to check if there's a need to upgrade your sim card.

Hi!
I read about the old SIM-Card idea but I doubt it in my case cause the problem can be reinstalled with Titanium ...
EDIT: this link may be interesting for this problem.

I have had the same prob on virgin AU stock rom. Did factory reset and kept getting the same problem. Sent the phone back and they replaced it. Getting the same FC after about a month on the new phone :/
Hi!
I don't think that this is a hardware problem. That's why I think you can send your phone as often as you want. They cannot give you other software than the one you can get yourself ...

Hey!
I was wondering, did anyone have this problem? After a few days of using it, my SE x8 is unable to recieve calls. A reboot solves it for little time, but it always happens again.
I'm on GingerDX v011, all the requirements are met (xrecovery AND cwm recovery, tried both, correct baseband as well).
It did this, while i was on v009, did a fresh reinstall with v011 and here it goes again.
I'm thinking about going back to the original firmaware, but its a hassle, so i was wondering if anyone had this problem before!
thanks in advance!
Hi everybody!
I'm facing a big problem with GingerDX V19. For some reason, after a time of use (a day, a week...) I can't receive calls.
The phone rings and vibrate, but the screen is black. After some seconds, I receive a force close from com.android.phone. Then, the signal is lost (a small red 'x' appears on the status signal), and some seconds after I get signal again.
The persons who call me listen a one call sound, the the call drops. I can't see who is calling me, and the call log don't register anything!
It happens from nothing. The first time I install GingerDX, take 2 days. So, I upgraded again, but with LinuxDX kernel. Some days after, the problem appears again. About 5 days without problems, but yesterday the problem re-appear. So, I decided to unlock the bootloader, and try GDX with Alfs5 kernel.
I flashed yesterday, about 15pm. Today, about 13pm, the problem appears again!! I can't understand!!!
The only way to solve this is re-installing GDX with full wipe, but I have to re-install and re-configure ALL my programs. I read a lot of posts on GDX thread, but nothing solve my problem until now... "Force touch UI", disable "call me louder" or "looping ringtone", change the in-call screen... Nothing...
BTW, I CAN MAKE calls, send and receive SMS... But not RECEIVE calls!!
Any ideas?? I love that ROM, but I can't have life with this problem!!!
Thanks in advice!
try new [ROM] GingerDX | v021 | 05-12-2011 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486
hit thanks
I have upgraded to V21, but the problem persists...
This time, I'm using LinuxDX kernel instead Alfs5.
Any ideas??
full wipe~~
Already tried.
When I upgrade, I do a full-wipe, clean cache, format data / cache / system partitions, as well clear dalvik cache.
More suggestions?
Found one reason: the "Call Me Louder" option on Cyanogen Configs.
If I turn it on, problem happens. If it is off, I can answer calls.
I can't post on dev section for X8 yet, can anyone report this to Doixanh on GingerDX thread??
Tonight I'll verify if another setting will be problem.
Thanks!
If you want to full wipe, just make a backup of all your apps using titanium backup. Not sure if the feature exists in free version, but hey! You can give it a try

Hi all,
Last week I upgraded my Note to new LT4 rom.(s). Couple of days later, my Note was unable to make calls. When I try to make call or receive a call, there is no sound neither from earpiece nor from the speaker. If I reboot the phone I sometimes be able to make some calls with a great noise on the background then it stops.
I re-flashed the rom and flashed other roms even re-flashed LZS roms with all clean install even finally formatted the internal sd card . No change.
Since I can make one-two calls after each reboot I still think it may be a software issue rather than hardware.
All other functions including cell reception, 3G, internet, wireless all working very well but cannot use it to make phone calls.
If you have any suggestions I appriciate.
Best Regards
Update - I installed the stocked LZS Rom but the problem still continues.

have you checked that your IMEI is the correct one? maybe it got corrupted...If that is the issue, should be solved by restoring your EFS backup .

No, I haven't checked. But I don't know my previous IMEI . How am I supposed to know if changed or not? I haven't backed it up. How to restore to original status?
Thanks

Below the battery you have the original IMEI number...if it is changed, then that is the issue. If you don't have a backup of your EFS, I am not sure but you can try to flash the stock rom by selecting EFS in ODIN PC. That is stuff is quite delicate, so I would recommend you to ask Dr. Ketan that he is more familiar with it.
But again, make sure that your imei is fine first. If that is not, then might be a hardware issue..
Thank you for your kind suggestions. I checked and it looks O.K. there is no change on IMEI. Actually I can receive SMS and 3G is working very well, my phone rings if someone calls but cannot talk.
Problem continues
Hi There,
The problem still hasn't been solved. Somehow all is going fine and suddenly re-occures. Has anybody come up with same problem and found a solution? Please share.
