I am seeing issues when receiving calls. The call connects but after a min or 2, I hear static then the caller can not longer hear me, I can hear them. Then the call drops,
Anyone else seen this? I am heading over to AT&T to see if they can swap this one out.

DId the new phone have the same issue? I've gone through 3 phones, pending to swap my 4th. First one I swear didn't have it, the last two did. My calls didn't drop, but I had static and lots of it.
I just started a thread to see if it was just me or if it's on all the Nexus 6 devices: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nex...aker-static-white-noise-t2962949/post57273176
If it's a software issue, then I'd gladly keep my phone and wait for an update, but if it's hardware... I need a new damn device!

Hey guys,
I have had my Nexus One for a couple of months now but one nagging issue has been the call quality. I bought the AT&T version and I sometimes get blips of static or white noise during my calls. On rare occasions I don't have this problem. The phone is not rooted or modified in any way and I even tried exchanging the phone 2 times and both times I had the same issue. Could this just be an AT&T issue or maybe it is my location (Connecticut/Massachusetts). Is there anything AT&T could do? I did get a new SIM with no change. I talked to HTC tech support but there wasn't much they could offer except wait for the next update (Froyo?) and see if that improves the quality a bit. Is that even possible it would and how? I like this phone a lot but I was hoping I would have resolved this by now. Anybody experience this or have some insight on it? Thanks!

Must be an ATT issue over there. I have the exact phone as you, ran vanilla/unrooted for months and never had any issues.
I have the rogers version (att&t) and I have no issues like that here in Canada.
I have the same version in DC with none of those problems
-I will keep this pretty simple because I was going insane over the last 2 days with my brand new HTC ONE acting sporadic on the network.
-On select models of Sprints HTC ONE there is a incompatibility update with Airaves latest push update especially texts and SMS. This issue could effect Samsung Galaxy Note II.
-Problems are as follows; not receiving calls, texts, mass floods of texts of the same message, and delayed texts. This will occur in out of Airave coverage range as you need to profile update depending if you have exited or entered your Airave coverage.
-This is a known Issue with versions 2.0 and 2.5 Airave boxes.
-If you have a similar issue or think your phone is not activated properly and are using an Airave device please call them at U.S. #1-866-556-7310.
-What is required is a MEID # change to your phone and a Profile update immediately there after. The tech will also update the Airave box.
-What I hope if any one else is was in my situation they can see this post and make the necessary call instead wasting 2 days of troubleshooting my phone rather than enjoying it. Also i do not work at sprint or have any affiliation with them. I am just a paying customer.
-If anyone else has experienced this problem or think they are please post if possible to get the word out.

Thanks for the links I did some searches earlier but I appreciate that. That usually happens when I can't find something I must be blind
Edit: I didn't see any mention of the MEID phone update in those threads so I will leave my Thread
I recently switched from an iPhone 5 to the One Dev Edition. After having some signal issues, I went to AT&T, got a microSIM, they switched me an Android data plan, etc. But I'm still having an issue where I can't reliably send and receive calls, especially from my desk at work. I can dial the number and hit Call but that's it. No ringing, nothing. Just dead air, then the "call" ends. If the call does go through, I can hear the other person but they can't hear me. Same thing when receiving a call. I'll hear them but they can't hear me. Sometimes my phone won't ring and it just rolls to voice mail. I can see the signal switching from LTE to H, etc, and I have practically full bar strength. I just don't understand why the calls aren't going through.
Is this an issue with the phone itself? Something with AT&T? Is there a newer radio firmware I can try flashing? I didn't have any issues with the iPhone 5, and I even had my coworker put his iPhone into field test mode so we could compare the numeric signal and they're about even, though the iPhone usually does have a slightly better db signal. I really like the One but not being able to send or receive calls while at my desk is a deal breaker.
Thanks!
From the sounds of it, you are running the stock firmware still? Any root or other possible modifications? If you answered Yes then no to those questions, I would head back to the AT&T store and have them try it out, if anything they should be able to take your SIM card and put it into another Android device and see what happens.
What about text/data, do those work?
You said mainly at your desk you notice this issue, so does that mean it happens at other places as well, same symptoms (full bars, allows to send call then nothing?) You may just be the lucky contestant with a defunct unit, HTC should be able to help you out.
I would suggest first going to AT&T store, try out their suggestions, then if anything give HTC a call/email to see if they can be of any help. At this point I would stay away from flashing custom radios as they may void your warranty then you will really be up $hit creek.
Sounds like att.
I had this problem with tmobile once. The signal wasn't strong enough and it wouldn't call.
Some please are spotty.
Something is wrong with your phone. That should be obvious. Of course the vast majority of people who got this phone can reliably make and receive calls or it would be the biggest mobile phone bust in history.
Sorry to be blunt but you already know it's not the signal so it has to be a defect in the phone.
Thanks for the suggestions. This is the stock Dev Edition ROM. I haven't made any changes other other than just installing apps.
I haven't made a lot of calls but I don't seem to have an issue any where else.
No issues with LTE. Data has been fine.
I wasn't sure if AT&T would assist since this is the Dev Edition but that's worth a shot to have them run some tests on it. Otherwise I'll try to get a replacement (or refund) from HTC.
Thanks!

Howdy,
I am having a puzzling issue:
WiFi calling is on, I can place calls - no problem. Every day I however am missing incoming calls - the call goes directly to voice mail.
Text messages are coming in from the same number a few seconds later telling me that my wife called and the call went to voice mail
Power cycling the phone or making an outgoing call seems to fix the problem.
It seems to me the trigger for it is when I leave my home and come back. The WiFi calling icon comes up - so it looks like it has registered ...
The same SIM in my "old" Note 2 ... I don't have any issues - no missed calls.
Hardware (phone) has been exchanged, numerous calls to t-mobile with the usual factory reset ... reset phone registration etc.
My internet connection is a directed WiFi ( WISP, I am the owner of the network). I usually have around 40/20 MBit - that should do, IMHO. The slowest ping to google I have seen was 40ms - most the time we are less than 10ms
Any hints are highly welcome ( I am ready to return the phone so frustrated I am ... )
Thanks
Oskar
Well what I have seen is if you stay stock you ended good. Rooting and flashing ROM has giving my phones headaches. I think issues are with TMOBILE handling your phone call switch over. Been on phone with them and have been thru 2 phones and 1 on the way. They don't wanna admit they messed up . so it gonna be a wait till update comes out.

It's a shot in the dark but you might want to try a new SIM card. I was also using a SIM from my Note 2 and was having problems. New SIM seemed to fix it for me. I am rooted as well.

I went through 2 phones also and it's not the sim card because I switched it 2-3 times
I get plenty of missed calls from my work, I wake up and see voicemails and there's no notification of a missed call. So basically people are calling me and I don't even know unless they leave a voicemail which people barely do nowadays.
I talked to a rep and told me to turn off volte and it helped SOMETIMES but it still happens to me.

I have had volte off from day 1. This started happening when they enabled the handoff feature from cell tower call to WiFi calling. It sucks. I want it back the old way.

Randomly happens to me, too. I cannot identify the root cause. ?

so, in the moment the conclusion seems to be .. it is either on the t-mo network side or the OS.
One more bit: I am using insteon and Mobilinc Pro for light control. That app works perfect on the note 2, on the note 4 button clicks seems not to work - or at least different.
So I wonder whether it might be possible to flash a note 4 rom to a note2 - just for testing purpose

Check your PM.
I'm glad to see this thread and will be following it. I'm on a T-Mobile Note 3 and am seeing the same thing with missed calls and also repeating and delayed texts. Just today I left my Wifi and got an important text message from about 15 hours ago! I also can't download MMS, but am not sure if it is related yet.
well,
updated to Lolipop and several calls to t-mo tech support and trouble tickets:
I still am missing incoming calls.
When I know a call is coming and I toggle WiFi on the phone on and off ... then the call comes thru
Absolutely frustrating

Start over with screenshots and use a screen record app and show us exactly what you mean. Also what router and model you are using
BAD ASS NOTE 4
Yep this happens to me constantly. Family says "I've been trying to get a hold of you all day" and I'm just replying well it didn't ring so I dunno. And that's on different ROM's.
this is a much acknowledged issue with the LP update, many threads are filled with complaints of it but it doesn't affect everyone so its hard to say the cause. My phone works fine but others' don't so idk
In the last few days I've had at least one dropped call per day on my S6. It doesn't make any difference if my recipient is on a cellphone or landline nor does it matter if I'm in the car on bluetooth or using the handset elsewhere. I did some searches and found others having the same problem, not so much with AT&T (mine) as opposed to Verizon and T-Mobile. Some say a factory reset cured the problem, but I hate to do it unless I have to. Just curious how others on AT&T are faring. My previous S4 never dropped any calls nor did my HTC M7 so I'm thinking it's not a network issue, but something in the phone itself.
I've never had a dropped call in the month I've had the device. I had my chubby cheek hang up on my mom once last week, but that's as close as it gets. My area gets pretty good coverage for att and tmobile though. I've yet to drop a call since joining at&t
My Black Galaxy S6 Edge 64gb module was dropping calls like crazy, and was still within my exchange period so I switched it out. Haven't had any dropped calls since.
Call and connection quality have been stellar for me. Only dropped calls I've had are when going through known dead spots.
Looks like the factory reset fixed it for me so all is good now.

Have you had any dropped calls since your last post here? I'm having dropped calls often. I don't think a factory reset will help me because I wiped all data before flashing the rom I'm running. I may try a factory reset from within the settings menu if you haven't had any dropped calls since the 15th.
I've only had a couple dropped calls since then, but my problem now is that sometimes the other caller can't hear me, specially when I'm driving and on bluetooth through the car audio. It can't be the other caller because they were on a stationary, land-line phone. I checked out my mic by making a voice recording so the mic is fine. I just tried unchecking "Enable HD LTE Services" and I'll see what that does and report back. If it were not for the very nice camera, the annoyance of the dropped and muted calls plus the bad battery life would be enough to make me switch this phone. It's got to be a device-specific bug. My HTC M9 is running Android 5.0.2 and is rock solid and never dropped a call. Same with my LG G3. I would send in my S6 for repair, but I'm not sure what they would do. Not only would I get a refurb back, but it might do the same thing. If you've been following the threads, you might have seen that Sprint had to push a special update for it's S6 customers to fix dropped calls. Verizon customers are also having it bad (I'm on AT&T). It can't be all network issues though as like I said, my other devices including an LG G3 have never dropped a call.
Thanks for the response rmc69. I did uncheck the HD lte and it did not help me at all. Let me know if you have a different result. Thank you
The Sprint S6 and S6 Edge have the same problem. I have to turn off the LTE radio all together to have a usable phone. I couldn't send/receive text, I had dropped calls and a very poor signal. Once I turned the LTE radio off, all those problems went away. I realize this is not a fix but it's a workable bandaid for those that are having problems. Good luck to you guys.
Turning off lte did not work for me.
Robert, how did you turn off LTE? By going into the testing mode and changing it from there? Or were you simply referring to unchecking Enhanced LTE Services?
I think I figured it out from this thread, at least for AT&T

I tried that, it did not work for me.
Sorry turning off LTE still didn't help. I guess the only alternatives now would be to wait for 5.1.1 and see what it fixes, or you may just consider asking for a replacement.

Yeah that is what I'm afraid of. Every time I go to the at&t store it's a big hassle. Hopefully an update will fix our problems.
@rmc69, is your phone rooted and running a custom rom?
No; pure stock. It's also a 64 GB model. I'm wondering if there is a difference that could affect reception, i.e., is the antenna placement exactly the same. I changed my band to GSM Auto last night removing LTE and so far, I haven't had any dropped calls, but it's too early to tell. The biggest problem I'm having is that sometimes callers cannot hear me, especially in the car using bluetooth.
I am rooted running DennisRom. Yesterday I did a factory reset via the stock recovery and made 4 calls and did not have 1 drop. I'll see how it goes for a few days and report back.
Great! That's encouraging.
Bad news, I just called my wife and the call dropped before she could answer her phone. I think I may give up and get a different phone. I'm loosing hope.
