Q]Having issues phone not ringing and voice calls

My father has this phone on tmobile... And is having major issues with phone not ringing and he can't hear caller when he answers calls. I run a gnex unlocked rooted running 4.2.1 Carbon rom. Will unlocking and rooting his phone help these issues. Or is this a known hardware issue with phone. Or will he have to get a new one... Thanx for any responses. New to thread live on gnex threads tho. Lol

Well I occasionally have this problem, but really rare. I am on root box 4.1 and the in call volume is outstanding, but still have the occasional problem of the phone not ringing. Could be pressing a button while its in his pocket/case or might just be a big with the phone

It is not a known problem with stock or rooted and custom rom. If the problem exist I suggest taking it back to store for replacement before going in rooting and custom rom as that voids warrentry and highly doubt rooting and custom rom can help it. That sounds like a flaw in hardware not software.

Honestly you probably do deserve to be deleted because of this thread.

Haha. I originally posted about a WiFi/BT bug but I fixed it.
Basically I was having wonky WiFi/BT where when using both, they would both freak out after 15 or so minutes. This was WiFi and BT devices such as MOGA controller and Motorola S10 headphones. Audio would skip and delay sync with video, WiFi would stop seeing any networks, controller would serious lag inputs, etc.
I've been screwing with various ROMs and kernels but nothing worked.
The solution was to flash back to 4.1.2 stock and upgrade to 4.2.2 naturally before rooting and reflashing my fav kernel and rom.
Something must have been screwed. Anyway I couldn't delete the thread so I just changed the title and the OP to say to be deleted.
Anyway, maybe it would be of help to someone. I've heard several people complain of similar issues. Even MOGA replied back saying they had lots of complaints about the issue. It tortured me for months.
I also relocked/unlocked so it would format everything.
Using the same exact rom/kernel combo (smooth ROM / lean kernel) as before and WiFi/BT is flawless now.

I don't see how that could fix it. I upgraded to 4.2.2 stock before rooting and loading a custom ROM and I have the wonky issue. Didn't know it till I was trying to stream Pandora to my headphones while at work today.

Me neither. But its gold now.
I did it because I have 2 N7s. One stock 4.2.2 and my SmoothRom 4.2.2 that has been rooted since launch and flashed. After mine kept causing issues and died one night, I grabbed my sons N7 and paired up my BT devices with no issues.
So I figures since his was newer, it either had to be the stock rom or maybe updated hardware. So I completely wiped, locked, unlocked, rooted, flashed all over again. Now I'm good.
Perhaps something in the official upgrade process loads extra data to extra partitions or some bootloader? I dunno.
Even tonight I played an hour+ with my MOGA.

Help!!! My phone was hacked!

OK so the weirdest thing happened just now. I was charging my atrix HD when I went on it to check a phone number. Then it started opening apps and going on xda then other apps. I had no control over it. I couldn't even turn it off. I had to do the power and volume down thing to shut off. It was very creepy. I was just looking for a minute while the person did what they did. It was like when a person from dell controls your computer if something isn't working right. At first I thought it was being laggy but no! It kept going settings were changed and the person tried playing music on it! I turned it off before he could but the wierdest part is that I had turned of my wifi and set my phone on airplane mode so it can charge faster. No communication what so ever. Right now its off and I plan to keep it that way until someone can tell me what to do to protect myself. Also this could have been happening before i went to go check my phone. Which was like 15 minutes before I checked it. Please help

That's what I'm thinking. A bad app. The likely hood of it being hacked are slim.

android is very hard to hack probably a virus delete data in cwm

Best thing to do is just wipe.
Easy way to do it is to go to Settings->Privacy->Factory Reset
It was probably a bad app.
Click thanks if I helped!

Another thing to be aware of is I've noticed Motorola's screens (at least on the Atrix models) are kind of finnicky. If there's a little bit of moisture around they just start registering touches on their own sometimes.

With my battery life being... less than ideal.. I find myself plugging into all kinds of chargers along my travels. Some non moto chargers make my phone go nuts, exactly like what was described - apps opening etc. Have experienced this several times. Feel the other explanations are possible of course but highly unlikely.

There was a story on the news recently that someone's iPhone was hacked by trying to charge at a public charging station. I would be weary of these charging stations.

Airport WiFi connections are VERY insecure. Basically they monitor everything that goes through. Text messages, calls, anything. Maybe they also have access to control phones?

I agree with above post non oem chargers can make the phone act funny especially the cheap dollar store chargers get an oem cable the you will know that it will work for charging and data.

Upgrade time - How's the CM experience?

Upgrade just came up and I was considering getting the One. Loved CM10 on my Epic Touch 4G and was curious what the experience was like on this device. The button configuration seems odd on this phone so I wanted to get people's thoughts. Also, is the camera as bad as some say?
Thanks in advance.

But the HTC one is riddled with QC issues and doesn't really improve much over the last Gen of phones. The next Gen has snapdragon 800, 3000 mAh batteries and whatnot. Plus, the 800s are really close. Like the G2 is already here.
The One isn't that good IMHO. The camera is overhyped really and the number of defects people are reporting make this phone worth skipping.

To stay on track with your question the CM experience is something I don't think someone in their right mind would recomend. Hell it has a tendency to burn up some phones and need replaced.

I agree if your sole decision is CM. Then wait. Cm was better on my gs3 than on here. It's pretty buggy and as has been said there are many reports of people's phones bricking cause of cm. To the quality control issue... I have had none, this phone has been great in that regard... But maybe I'm just lucky . In all honesty, overall this is the best phone I've ever owned. I don't think you'd go wrong with this phone.

My $0.02:
For the short while I was able to use CM, I wasn't exactly blown away. It was exactly the same as my GS2, but with better specs. There were no extra features or anything. It looked nice with Black Infinitum, but again, not really different from my old phone. There were some bugs, so...
And you do have to watch out for the max freq lock, which will burn up your phone as it sits.
EDIT: However, CM Nemesis is coming soon. I would still wait for for a new device with better specs, but hey, this is a fairly new device.

I really haven't had any issues since 10.1
Sent from my One using XDA Premium HD app

I used it for a week while on vacation and while it was nice to see a less bloated One with all the additional customization .. there were several issues and features that made me go back.
The biggest was GPS lock - I could not get a steady lock and if I did the radius was quite large, throwing me all over the map.
The phone actually seemed less responsive overall - including a slight delay when turning on the phone.
Missed the htc car app - google car and the ones from the market are not the same
and the IR - now it has only come in handy once, when my remote died; however, the remote can be fun at the bar

The HTCOne is a unique phone, the button layout is strange and is my biggest headache. Contrary to most posts above I like the CM experience on it better then sense, but this is my first (and only ever!) sense phone. I much prefer the AOSP experience. CM is lacking in a few places but core functionality is there and works good enough for me for daily use, for the record I'm on 10.2 20130819
Truthfully though I think I would wait for a new nexus device. I love the feel of the One in my hand but it's nothing amazing hardware wise.

No major issues for everyday use. I've been running nightlies since I got the phone. Battery life is awesome and no random reboots.

Just a quick check guys.
Does the music still sound wonky? 10.1 would make my songs really quiet then normal then quiet etc. It drove me crazy.
Also, does the wake still take like a second? That was also a problem with 10.1.

4.3 update problems

Has anyone else noticed the 4.3 update made your one slow ? and xda app is crashing im headed back to 4.1.2 until the bugs are worked out

It seems the same to me. Not slower but not faster either. I haven't tried the xda app because I use tapatalk

Crap. I was hoping for better news. HTC promised a fix and apparently delivered a half baked version of a fix. Less tint isn't a fix. Thanks for sharing though.

Mine runs better but then again i am still locked. Judging by the OP going back to 4.1 i bet he flashed it on his own, which probably accounts for a large amount of the issue.

Mine is noticeably faster. The xda app has been god awful since the last update, so that is not due to 4.3.
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Mine runs great. XDA app sucks. I'm stock unrooted and locked so yeah.
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

No problems here! enjoying the update! Also not rooted or unlocked.

Don't use the XDA app, but everything seems good for me. Completely stock, not rooted. Longest I've ever kept a phone this way, and if I can find a way to tether without root, I don't know that I'll feel the need to for a long while.

i didn't flash the update i went back to stock and then updated to 4.3 ... im s-off so i just went back to 4.1.2

I'm not rooted or unlocked. Never have been in this phone. I'm noticing faster than normal battery drain and a laggier scrolling experience if you will. Phone still flys, but not what I expected.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app

No issues. Actually much better as far as power saving. Much faster. More responsive. Sea never crashes for me. Stock unrooted not s off. Just updated. I haven't found one real need to s off yet.

My battery drained faster today then normal by about 2 hrs
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app

did it last afternoon, and then did a factory reset. I didn't see any power drain problem, maybe even better, but the signal strength seems to be lower, which according to others might just been the data signal strength.

I noticed the laggy scroll too.. and transitions back to the home screen

I'm having an annoying issue. I keep my phone on vibrate most of the time but like to turn off the vibrate function in apps like Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, etc so I don't get a vibration when someone tweets me, emails me, etc. Since the update, it still vibrates when the box isn't checked. Can anyone try to replicate? Thanks

my battery drains faster for sure... now we need some kernel source so Thicklizard can cook up a beast kernel!! i was getting crazy godd battery life with his kernel.. best kernel i ever ran on any phone.. :good:

No problems here either. Runs great. Stock, locked, and unrooted.
