Hit or Miss Erratic in Receiving Calls - Moto X Q&A

Verizon Developer Edition. Unlocked. Rooted. Kitkat 4.4. I've only had this phone a few days but today I noticed very erratic behavior in receiving calls. Incoming calls don't ring, don't vibrate, don't show up as missed calls. I tried uninstalling Xposed and Gravity. No change. Tried switching ringtones. Tried calling from two different phones.. Tried switching from "Global" to "CDMA/LTE" network. Tried de-activating Sleep Control. Tried turning Airplane Mode on and off. Tried multiple reboots. Tried Bluetooth on and off. I can't figure this out. Maybe 1 call in 5 rings through. The others go to Google Voice mail with no indication that my phone is ringing. I can call out just fine so I don't think its cause I'm in some kind of dead zone. I think this behavior might have started after installing Gravity, but it persists even with Gravity not running and Xposed uninstalled. Any ideas?

The two phones (home landline and wife's iPhone) that my Moto X wasn't taking incoming calls from, are working again (for the moment at least). Apparently what fixed it was turning off data on my Moto X and then turning it back on again. Or maybe it was me calling *78 and then rebooting. Or maybe it was me calling those phones from my Moto X. Or some combination of the above. Go figure..

Problem answering calls

Having a bit of a weird issue. Weird because it's not always happening. I'm running the latest version of Dark Raider with kozmikkernal. When I get a call from my wife the ring is a bit delayed and when I go to answer it the phone is freezing up and I have to pull the battery. It sounds kinda like the cpu speed is set too low to answer calls but I tried calling from my house phone and I've had no issues with it. I've had her call while running the aosp lockscreen in leeroid tweaks enabled so haven't tried with the normal lockscreen yet. Just don't understand why so far it only happens when it's her phone calling.

MOD PLEASE DELETE incoming ring cuts off

I'll be darn if I can figure out what is going on here.
4.1.2, stock except for custom kernel brick bug prevention.
I've had this rom running since it was released (this is a note international, GBT via amazon, used in the states)
Never had an issue, but I've started to notice a couple missed calls. Today, I saw what was happening.
Incoming calls, the ringer only rings for maybe 1/2 second, phone continues to "ring" but you never hear
anything! It's like it has been silenced as if you quickly pressed a button. That's how it acts without bluetooth.
If I have my bluetooth (jawbone ERA) turned on, SOMETIMES, if the screen is off, it NEVER rings, on the speakerphone
I'm using to dial my Note, I hear it ring 2 times, then go directly to voicemail. Sometimes it does that, sometimes it does
not, otherwise, the phone ringtone plays for a split second, headset continues to ring normally. Screen shows the incoming
call, but no ringtone. I haven't tweaked, installed, updated anything to cause this. Just one day it started doing it.
I'm about to do a clear reset, but it's just a PITA to set it up. Device is going on 18 months old, first issue I've really had
with it other than a bad USB port or a worn battery.
Any clues?
edit: Found the issue...I use call control as a phone number blocker. In settings, I had on for blocked calls, "remove partial ring" turned on. Once that was turned off, everything started working.

Beeping sound during call on N

I'm currently on the Android N preview. During a call i hear a "Beep Beep" every ten seconds(Sounds like call waiting). Is there a way to stop this sound? I've checked the phone settings and call settings But I don't see anything that addresses this sound. Any one else have this problem or annoyance?
I'm using as daily driver, and I didn't hear that sounds.

Yes..it's odd. I was on a call..no beeping. Received another call,clicked over..the sound started. I then ended call..called back no sounds. It's random..
Beeping is often a sign that the call is being recorded, no...?
I get the two beeps just before a call is initialised. One low pitch and second higher pitch right after. Usually happens at 2 locations in the City of London. Doesn't happen anywhere else!
Beeps on stock ROM and also on Pure Nexus r22 rom.
So you're not the only one
Had this happen to me for the first time yesterday, after switching from one call to another. It stayed active, even after I hung up both calls and made another one. Fixed on reboot.

I had multiple calls today with no beeping. Same callers as before. I'm just wondering what causes it. It's more of an annoyance than a problem

Muted Outgoing Call Mic

Hello all,
I am making this thread because I am having a really strange and frustrating issue that I am hoping can be solved before I am forced to get rid of my phone. I have a factory unlocked SM-G955U running the most current stock software. Basically my issue is my phone randomly mutes my mic during outgoing calls. I can hear the person on the other end but they can't hear me. Sometimes all I have to do is hang up and call back to fix the issue. Other times, the only way for me to fix the issue is for me to restart my phone. Strangely if I hang up and the other person calls ME back, then the problem is instantly solved. I thought this was limited to actual phone calls, but I had the same issue happen today with Whatsapp as well. I can confirm the problem is 100% isolated to OUTGOING calls and has no effect on incoming calls. I would have to assume this issue is software related and not hardware related given the fact this is only happening randomly on outgoing calls.
Ive done all of the basic troubleshooting and even removed my ultra thin phone case with no change in results.
Any help would be much appreciated thanks!

Take your phone to Verizon, they will flash your unlocked phone with their software, it will still be unlocked but you will get voicemail, visual voicemail and wifi calling back because their software has these features activated. I understand you were probably trying to get around their bloatware but the lesser of two evils is apps needed.

Question WhatsApp Audio/Video call silences the device

I have been using Pixel 7 for a few months now and am facing this issue since the day I have got this device. I am not sure what is causing this issue. I tried going through all the settings, developer options, custom rules, notification settings for Whatsapp but couldn't find anything.
THE ISSUE - The device works perfectly fine when I get a normal phone call, which means it rings if the phone is on ring mode when I receive a normal call. Where as for a whatsapp call (Audio/Video), even if the phone is on ring mode, it rings for a second and then immediately switches to silent mode. This means if I get a call over WhatsApp, then after that my phone will remain silent until I manually turn it back to ring mode by clicking on volume button and changing the setting. AI have to do this every single time when I get a WhatsApp call so that I don't miss out my next normal call.
I tried uninstalling the beta version, but it behaves the same way for the regular whatsapp as well. I would appreciate if anyone here could help me with this issue which has become a pain now.
