[Q] Can't make phone calls after rooting - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I rooted my Xperia Z using Doomlords method below of reverting to earlier kernel, using exploit and then flashing back up to use an exploit.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327472
Ever since, I can't make calls sometimes. I can make calls for a while and then nobody can call me and I can't call anybody but I can send/receive text messages.
I have no idea what could be causing this. I'm downloading a stock rom now and might flash that if nobody here has any ideas.

Ok, went back to unrooted Sony and updated to latest Sony update.
Can't make calls at all now. Anybody any ideas. LCan still text and use internet. Phone attempts to dial then just ends call before it even starts dialing.
Person I dial has no missed call.

Have you tried a different sim card or tried putting your sim in another phone to rule out problems with it?

I tried another SIM and it did not work despite the phone being unlocked but I couldn't do anything with the other SIM.
I have another SIM I can try later today that I know worked in this phone when I got it first.
I really need to get this going as soon as possible, a few important calls to make
Thanks for your reply!

Ok, I have other SIM in now and have 3 bars coverage but can't make calls. I get error in status bar, no service, network unavailable but phone is unlocked. This is a different operator to other SIM. Connection problem or invalid MMI code appears if I attempt to dial USSD code to see credit balance.

[Q] All recevied calls straight to voicemail, can't recieve texts, on Bell (I9000M)

For the past day I haven't been receiving any texts. I've tried 3 different friends phones on 2 different networks and 1 on the same network. I can send texts fine though.
A couple hours ago I tried calling my phone from a land line and noticed it goes straight to voicemail. I can make calls fine as well.
All the settings look fine on the phone, is there any special codes to enter to further check things?
Bells customer service is gone 'til Monday....
did you unlock the phone, or using any TurboSIM card unlocker?
Stock rom, not rooted or done anything like that. The only new apps I can remember using yesterday is the bluetooth module for astro file manager and trying the bump app with an iphone. Does that work by the way, android/iphone bump app? It wasn't for me.
Also, a reset to stock from the privacy menu hasn't helped.
yes i have bump installed, but so far not seen any iphony user with bump to try it on
are you able to receive phone calls if you put your sim card on another phone?
Finally got the number for data support from one of the local stores and they were able to fix the issue which was something on their end.
Yup, that just sounded too weird too be a phone issue

Bell has been having outage problems. It's probably due to the surge of new users they're getting because of the SGS. I called them up and they reset it for me or something.

Captivate silence during calls?

I am currently abroad in London. I have unlocked my Captivate to work on a local network, Orange, with a pay as you go plan. Recently when 2.2 was released I used Kies Mini to upgrade, it went fine. However, now I can't use the phone for calls!
When I make or receive a call, its as if the phone is muted. I can't hear a thing, not static, ringing, or the other person when then answer (yes the calls go through), and they can't hear me either. It's very strange. However, I have tested both the mic and internal and external speakers with other apps and they work fine.
I have tried downgrading and re-upgrading and even doing a reset with Odin but it does not help. Strangely enough, when I first upgraded calling worked off and on (1 working call for every 3 silent calls) for about a week, then stopped alltogether.
Any suggestions? I really need this fixed fast. Could this be a SIM card issue?
Hi, I had the same issue, and it was with an Orange prepaid sim card. I unlocked my phone prior to the trip, and I had the same thing with every other call had no audio whatsoever but the SMS still worked. I wonder if somebody had a custom rom that worked fine with Orange

Yeah exactly SMS works just fine. Well that sucks, what a strange issue! I wonder if there's some sort of fix for this?
Surely somebody else is using an unlocked Captivate with those pesky Orange pay as you go....
I can't say it'd be a fix or anything, but on some roms, I sometimes have to enable speakerphone, and then disable it. I doubt it'd be a fix for your issue, but it's worth a try

OP did you try that? That would be too easy if it was it. I flashed my phone to a new ROM but I cannot try it until my brother sends me the international Orange sim

Missed Calls

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.

"Call ended" right after dialing

First of all, I want to say that I found people with the same issue using Android everywhere and with a lot of different phones, so it's probably an Android bug rather then Moto X itself, but I wanted to leave my report.
I came from an S3, which suffered from the same problem when using Cyanogenmod. When using official Samsung ROM everything worked as it should. Now, I'm getting the same issue on my brand new Moto X.
When I try to call someone, sometimes it just doesn't call, after I press the dial button, it just hangs (without ringing) and finished the call with a "Cal ended" message. It happens randomly, and sometimes I can't call anybody for like 2/3 hours.
The simcard has been changed from the S3 (micro) to the Moto X (nano), so it's probably not it. Also, with the Samsung ROM it didn't happen.
I can still receive calls and messages, and the signal strength is fine most of the time. I just can't call.
Today I faced this problem and then I tried calling from my girlfriend smartphone (samsung ace IIx) at the same time, which is from the same carrier, calling to the same number, and it just worked fine. Mine still didn't work though.
Here is a thread on people on xda facing the same problem, but with a different phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351227
Don't know what to do.
i've had the call not go through as you've described, but have never had a phone not let me place "any call" afterwards. i always chalked it up to poor performance (limited RAM, too many processes, etc). My DROID3 would do it and often times when it finally did make a call, there was zero sound and I would have to reboot the phone.

Hmm, it doesn't seems like poor performance. I ended up every task and it still happened.
However, I noticed that when I check the "2G ONLY" option it comes back to work. Maybe it's something with the HSPA/HSPA+ connection.
it could be completely carrier dependent then. my experience has been with vzw.
Moto X "Call Ended"
I have experienced this same problem in Houston on the T-Mobile network after switching over to Android. My T-Mobile rep told me they have had towers vandalized for copper which has impacted service for them, I believe he said it was about 15 towers and 10K a pop to get things corrected. What gets me is I was on a Bold 9900 and while I had signal problems in the affected areas of town I didn't not experience the "call ended" issue. I can also call other T-Mobile phones from those same areas but not land lines so to me this seems like a possible network routing issue which I have seen before between specific carriers.
If the problem does continue I may have to switch carriers. T-Mobiles service was previously outstanding in Houston but recently had not been great after the 4G LTE upgrades. I support multiple hospitals and need service to work correctly and will work with the T-Mobile Engineers to see if I can make headway on that front. I noticed another MotoX user reporting he only had the issue when flying in to Houston for work and that everything worked for him outside of Houston. His solution was to operate in 2G mode which for me is really not an option. I have to handle a lot of tasks over the network while on calls.
Anyways I would appreciate it if others could post if they are experiencing these issues and give as many details as possible so we can try to isolate the root cause of this problem and if found to be a carrier issue we can escalate with them. Thanks

Call Ended Issue Resolved
Hi All,
I see this Call Ended Issue in many brands. So I assume the error is a combination of the Network along with the SimSlot.
I tried various combinations for my Moto-E mobile.
Before i post the solution i found, Let me provide a brief about the problem.
I use Vodafone network on sim1 slot and Uninor network on Sim2 slot. I started facing the call ended issue on my sim 1 vodafone network.
I inter changed the sim's and found the network working absolutely fine. This makes me to understand that the sim1 slot with the vodafone carrier has some network issue where that IMEI code has some problem.
i tried to place the vodafone sim again on the sim 1 slot and found the problem persists. So i came to that conclusion.
Hope this might help you and provide a instantaneous and temporary resolution.
Thanks,
Praveen.
Call Ended problem still going...
Hey,
I just rooted my Moto X (XT 1053), like 5 min ago, in the hope to fix this same problem. I`m no programer/developer and have nothing against rooting, I just don`t think I`m that kind of user. Anyway, about a week ago my phone started to drop my calls right after dialing. I restored factory settings, updated it and nothing worked. I took it for service and they offered to charge me 150 bucks to restore factory settings and update the software. So I was kinda forced to root and try to fix it this way. The problem is that I probably don`t understand half of what you guys say, so if there are any kind souls out there, please help me out.
To sum it up:
- No Sim Card error
- I get carrier services and can use mobile internet (3G because 4G is still too explensive here in Brazil)
- Directly drops my calls
- Won't receive calls
- Won't send or receive text messages via carrier (just over 3G or wifi)
I`ve tried another carrier's Sim Card, no go.
I`ve tried my Sim Card on another phone and it worked just dandy, so I really don`t think it`s carrier related.
I`m running Android 4.4.3, as the other updates weren`t available for my phone via Motorola. I thought maybe updating to a newer version of Android might do the trick. I just have no clue on how to do that on a rooted phone... or on a non rooted phone for that matter.
Can anyone give me any tips/pointers/etc... ?
Thanks!
I have the same issue with my moto x on Verizon. Have you been able to figure it out?

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.
same issue here. check this thread
