Missed Calls - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hello,
I'm on EE UK network and I keep getting text messages that i've missed a call even when i'm at home where i'm connected to wireless and also have 3 or 4 bars signal.
don;t understand why this keeps happening. I try calling my phone from another mobile and it works OK.
Any one know why this might happen?
Thanks

Are you sure its recent calls? Depending on your carrier it might log it and send it as a reminder later or something like that.

Problems like this are quicker to fix by wiping your phone, if you have data you want to backup either use titanium backup or do a nandroid backup (build into CWM)

I've wiped the phone but just found the problem still exists, any help with this will be appreciated. It's very annoying that people cant get through to me.

I read somewhere that the problem might be something to do with the 4g network. the network needs to switch from 4g to 3g to receive voice calls and if it doesn't switch quick enough, it results in a rejected/unconnected call but gives me a text to say someone couldn't get through.
is that possible?

I also have the same problem. While I was holding my device which had three bars of signal ,I was calling my number from a friend and kept getting the msg that it was not available, ..after 2 mins I received about 5 "missed call" messages. I think it's problem of EE though.

Can't Use Data While On a Call

I seem to be having issues using Data when I'm on a call. I'm on T-mobile in San Francisco running 2.2.1. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to remedy this?
Contrary to T-Mobile's position that I can do data while on a call, I typically have the same issue as you. I've only been able to get online a few times while on a call. Usually there's no data connection available.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
You can only use data during a call when you see the little 3g symbol at the top near your signal bars. If it shows E, then you can't.
I am not sure if the problem has anything to do with being on T-Mobile. I'm in India & I have observed that on all versions of android, there seems to be a problem in following cases :-
1. Making a call while an sms is being sent out. Try it, and your sms would be returned undelivered & call would not get through. You'll have to reboot the phone to make it work again.
2. Try making a call while data transfer is on. It fails.
3. If some one calls you while data transfer is on, he gets a busy tone.
I started off on my Nexus One with 2.1 & I'm currently on 2.2. My friend who owns a galaxy s and is on 2.1 also has the same problems.
None of these problems existed on my nokia e90.

1. Never tried, but happened to receive calls with SMS being sent. Worked.
2. Works fine.
3. Works fine. Moreover, I happen to use a lot of tethering, and tether for hours while talking on the phone - calling people and getting calls.
I guess it's your carrier to blame, not the OS and not the phone(s).
To the OP: as everyone said and will say in this thread, watch for your connection. Having 3G signal is a requirement.

You must be in a 3G area for simultaneous voice and data.

i dont get those errors, and i've specifically tested making a call while transferring data, and many combinations of that.
i have never, though, tried the sms send and call test. i'll have to try that out.
anyway, the nexus one can use data during a phone call on the 3G network. if you are connected to EDGE then it will not work and the data will pause.
My phone does show a 3G signal and I still can't do it. I know that T-Mobile throttle the speed. Do you think it has to do with throttling?

it must be some isolated case with your spcific sim card or something. when connected to 3g you absolutely should be getting simultaneous voice and data, its very well know. not sure what else you could do.
This is weird. Ive always been able to get simultaneous voice and data. Never had a problem.

[Q] JB SMS issue

Hi, having SMS issue with my SGS on Remics-JB 3.0.1 - I receive no SMS. When I put SIM in another phone SMS are finally received. Sending SMS is OK, i can send messages and they are delivered to addressee so it is not problem with SMSC. Only no SMS are delivered to my SGS although I test sending from web or another phone. I had this issue with all ICS and JB roms I tested, sometimes after flash it was all right and problem started later and sometimes the issue appeared right after flash. Got back GB and it was fine but now I tested JB again and the issue is still here, although I did all wipes and clears before and after flash, had made no restore via TB or Go backup. I am getting really anoyed from this, tried another SMS app and no result. Could you advise me what will help, I had an idea to try another modem but dont know which

I think so, in phone menu it is displayed, cant compare it now with box cause I am not at home. Flashing GB or Froyo resolves it and phone calls, logging in mobile network is OK.
Edit: Mean on ICS/JB phone calls and mobile network works, SMS sending works, SMS receiving NOT work.
On older android works everything.

its odd, looks like you have something installed to block out sms reception like this maybe ...which I doubt
IMEI does match with the one on the box. I use Root call blocker pro (some older version), SMS blocking is off but will try delete it and test if there isnt some bug, after that I will let know. Although it is essential app for me because of my work Dont know about another one like that which is function and reliable

So.. deleted Root call blocker pro, wiped cache, dalvik, fixed permission and.. OK It was some incompatibility of older version with JB.
Do you know some other call blocking app, which is reliable and blocks calls before phone start to ring? So caller wont hear ringing tone but "not aviable" or "busy" tone?

I don't have any advice except that I'm pretty sure it's NOT the IMEI that's the issue.

got the exact same problem
Phone seems fine for a few hours after a reset so have resorted to resetting it a few times a day now. The only other commonality was that this number was used in an iphone 4s previously and i am wondering if there are any iphone specific carrier settings which could be causing this.
Will try buying another carrier's prepaid sim to see if that would solve the problem.
Meanwhile if any of you gentlemen find a solution I'm all ears.

Sms sending problem when using on Verizon LRA partner carrier

My carrier refuses to help me with this issue since it's not a phone that they carry.
First some background info. I have a problem using the Nexus 6 on my carrier, "Bluegrass Cellular" which is a regional cdma/lte carrier partnered with Verizon Wireless under their "LRA" (LTE in rural America) program. This issue I can guarantee happens with every user using the device on other carriers under the same agreement. Friend who uses a n6 on another partnered carrier has the same problem. The Issue doesn't seem to be ROM dependant either. If more carrier specific info is needed I can provide it.
Before a wonky work around mentioned next, this is the issue. Problem is if connected to LTE, everything works properly, calls in and out, mms in and out, and receiving sms as normal. But you cannot send sms (pre 14r radio, after 14r radio sends but delays). If you are connected to LTE, when you send a sms it will fail with the message message, "cant send message (insert carrier name) error -1. But you could downgrade network to 3g and you can send fine. But back to LTE sms lags.
Only fix/work around is to flash any m preview radio. Which leads me to think it could possibly be radio related. With those, sms sends, but it takes 40 seconds to send per text. Does anyone have any ideas? 14r+ radio with delay is better than nothing, but it's still rather frustrating.
Outgoing sms on LTE/cdma: average 40 second delay to send message, with higher than normal send failure rate.
Outgoing sms with LTE disabled: sms sends within 5 seconds.
Still when on LTE there is no delay on receiving texts. Only sending.
I Tried sms over ims on/off and a few other pokes and prods, no different. Can provide logcat or anything else if desired. Just trying to get an idea what's going on.
Tl;Dr
APNS are set properly, mms in/out works fine, calls in/out work fine, receiving sms is fine, sending sms on cdma 1x/3g is fine.. Just sending sms on LTE has a roughly 40 second send time with a abnormal send failure rate.
Sorry for the long post I am just trying to cover all the bases for which could be applicable to finding a solution. Thanks in advance for any inputs!

Same issue
I just switched to Bluegrass Cellular today and brought my Nexus 6 aboard and am experiencing the exact same issue. I am running Android 5.1.1 with baseband: MDM9625_10446.01.02.101R and cannot send SMS outbound at all. I can receive SMS, calls, and data all fine, but no outbound texts will go through at all. I will follow the advice already in this thread and update to Android M preview to see if the updated baseband will "sorta" fix the issue so I can at least send outbound, even if it is delayed. I am willing to provide logs if anyone can look into this issue and see a possible resolution.
M preview radio will sorta fix it and make it so it will send on LTE after a delay of like 40 seconds. If you are on 1x/3g sms will work fine.

No need to flash the entire M. Just flash the radio unless you want more that don't work.
I just wish we could figure out why it delays and how to resolve it. Any radio but m preview sms will just fail after so long. M preview radio will delay but eventually send after average 45 seconds. It's just so odd to me.
Calls in out fine
Mms in out fine
Sms in fine
Sms out 1x/3g fine
Sms out LTE no m radio no send
Sms out LTE m radio 40 seconds to send but will send.
Interestingly enough if you go into network settings and set to LTE only rather than LTE cdma sms will not send. So I can't tell if it's radio or it not wanting to use the ims features I'm really lost at this point

If it is delayed it is carrier. Nothing you do to device outside APN and PRL will fix in my opinion. Carrier/tower problem.
Progress
Ok, I flashed the 24R Android M Preview 3 baseband to my phone last night and texts were still failing altogether this morning when on LTE. I had alot of text messages on my phone (over 21,000 total according to the SMS Backup and Restore app). I deleted alot of old text messages on my phone and my texts are now going through without delay. However...MMS is still not working, but I suspect that has something to do with me not having a Bluegrass APN setup on my phone (if anyone has BG's APN settings, I would be happy if you could provide me a link to them, because I do not see them on their website).

If you want to use mms on a non bluegrass phone you are limited to one specific texting app "8sms" with mms settings as shown in picture. Make sure you don't forget the last setting X-MDN:##LINE1#. Mainly you need the mmsc mms on wifi (yes bluegrass supports it) and the extra http header above.

Why would it work fine in other phones across multiple carriers in this instance? I've tested several different phones also and I've noticed this happens only in Motorola phones not made specifically for Verizon lra carriers. I've used a Verizon galaxy s4 and everything worked great. It feels like somewhere in the radio software or wherever is not letting the ims feature work.

Still Occuring on Android 6.0
So here's an update. I had been running Android 5.1.1 on my Nexus 6 for months with the 24R baseband and had zero problems with SMS being delayed. Everything worked like normal. I updated to Android 6.0 which installed the 27R baseband and the delayed SMS issue is back. I tried reverting the baseband to 24R and the delayed SMS issue was still present. Any ideas on how to fix this? I will be happy to provide logs or any other diagnostic information.
Odd....
Quite frankly, I'm still baffled by this issue. I bought the Nexus 6p and am still with Bluegrass Cellular. Once I popped in my SIM and had them change my IMEI number, I thought that the delayed SMS issue would be a thing of the past. The issue is STILL PRESENT on the Nexus 6p which is manufacturered by an entirely different company than the 6 was (Huawei). I don't suspect it is the radio any longer, as this has happened to me on multiple phones.
I've been toying with different remedies and strategies for months. I've started thinking it's software related and needs to be addressed to Google, but unfortunately I highly doubt they'd care.

Didn't know you had a thread going for this. Do you still need 8sms with those headers added? I could probably change your http header elsewhere and get it working with all message apps.
For the SMS delayed issue, I have found a fix with the help of @evilryry and have made a flashable for it. Just waiting for a little more confirmation so I can be sure to give accurate instructions.

I can comment that I've been using Google messenger for somebtime now and it's been fully functional. Just have to restore apns with apn backup and restore that I got from a rooted thumb cellular phone and then add mms line to apn type under vzwinternet and so far so good.

Not receiving calls (SM-N950F) on T-Mobile

I bought this Note 8 (SM-N950F) in Amazon.
Sometimes when people call me I dont receive the calls nor notifications...they go directly to voicemail.
I'm in US using the same T-Mobile SIM that I've used with my two previous phones (they worked perfectly).
I'm aware that this is not a US model but I'm able to make calls and receive many calls, I can use 4G too with no conectivity issue.
But sometimes I dont receive calls and that worries me because that'd be a big deal in case of an emergency :/
I've searched on the web but have found no solutions. I will really appreciate your help guys

I'm able to make calls any time, and receives calls sometimes...but I recently noticed that when I'm not receiving calls, I just make a call and instantly I'm able to receive calls...so, I'm pretty sure it has to do with the phone app going to sleep.

I went to TMobile and I got a new SIM too....still the same issue. But let me know if it works for you anyways.
Like I said, I'm sure that what's causing the issue, is the "phone" app simply hibernating, but I don't know specifically what's the name.
If anyone here could let me know what's the name of the app that controls the cellular activity, would be great
