[Q] HTC ONE M8 is randomly dropping calls - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Hey there.
I am experiencing some issues with recieving calls. The phone is randomly dropping calls when I hit the answer. Instead of making the connection. I unlocked the bootloader installed google play edition rom and the issue is gone.
I want my phone running sense rom not the google rom so anyone knows how to solve this?

Is this on Sprint? I experience the exact same thing. But I've narrowed it down to when I get calls from other Sprint phones. Land lines and other carriers my phone picks up just fine, but whenever someone calls me from a Sprint account it drops as soon as I hit accept. Is it true that your issue goes away when you are running GPE ROM?

I figured out what the issue was/is. It's a known issue with Google voice integration. Was on the phone with a CSR and they disabled GV integration on my account and Sprint calls started to connect. Even better is all of a sudden my HD voice calls worked and wow what a difference. You can find the thread on the GV support pages.

Sprint signal issues(no really)

OK I already know what the unhelpful responses would be to this I.e. change your carrier. I assure you it is not the problem I have a super strong LTE connection at my house with a LG G3 and HTC One. My issue is when the phone is sitting with the screen off, if I pick it up fast enough I see its been searching for signal then it quickly changes back to in service. Any ideas or anyone else experiencing this?? Also in battery stats cell standby is high and time without signal is usually a couple hours. As long as the phone has its screen on it maintains a signal.
I have been getting wierd things happing with my signal on T-mobile( showing no bars when I have signal, not letting me make calls when I have full bars). I think this is less of a sprint issue and more of a device issue. Should not be hard to fix with an OTA so I'm not worried.
Thanks for the reply, I'm curious if others are having signal woes.
My device is doing the same. Bought direct from Motorola, using on T-Mobile.
Noticing the same on Tmo as well, no issue with my Z2 so I know its the N6. It will show no bars, then full and bounce around every so often like it can't decide on 3G, H or LTE.

OK thanks, guys I haven't seen any other sprint users chime in yet so this is very interesting coming from T-Mobile users. I bought mine direct from sprint and of course I'm running stock with boot loader unlocked, rooted, and twrp installed. I also feel like I would have way better battery life if the phone wasn't searching for signal when the screen was off.
I have the same issue on and I'm on T-Mobile
No issues at all for me on T-Mobile in my home / area, but I still have to test it when I go to work Monday . In fact I have much better cell reception on my N6 than my note 4.
I am using tmobile nexus 6 on verizon and it doed act funky. Sometimes all bars would be grey, but ill still have service. Is odd because other verizom phones always show at least 2.
I had the same issues with the Nexus 5 and GPE HTC One M8, but I was on AT&T. Signal bounced all over, never hold LTE signal, dropped calls, bars would disappear, and that never happened on my other phones. Anyone have any input with the Nexus 6 and signal on AT&T?
I am having the exact same issue on T-Mobile. It is leading to some pretty significant battery drain, I hope this is fixed soon!
I'm even seeing users reporting on this over at the sprint sub on reddit. Hopefully just a software issue that gets fixed soon.
I switched from vzw to sprint for unlimited data and this phone so I cant comment on sprints coverage at home until this point. However my signal is very irradic and constantly non existant while my buddies gs5 and iphone 6 plus in the same room show 3 to 4 bars on sprint. I have done prl updates and tried every setting possible without root, hopefully it is software related.

thanks for the info.. my phone for some strange reason while its off will still flash my clock in intervals of about every 30 seconds..... its something minor but im wondering why it does that....
I'm on sprint. My phone doesn't want to send texts while on wifi. It takes like 5+ minutes to send. If i flip off wifi it sends immediately...

[Q] Duplicate SMS - Sprint Nexus 6

Hello,
I've been trying to figure this out for days now and I can't seem to find any permanent solution. My Nexus 6 on Sprint (Android L 5.0 / LRX21O / Up to Date PRL) 50%-75% of the time sends duplicate SMS messages to recipients. On my end I see one SMS message outbound and it sends without issue. On the other end, people will get the same message one to six times. I've seen it myself on a separate Sprint phone and a Verizon phone.
From what I can tell, sometimes updating the profile helps for a few minutes and that's it. It doesn't matter if I uninstall/disable the stock Google Messenger or Hangouts. This issue happens in every single 3rd party SMS messenger I've used. The only time I've got the problem to stop is if I force 3G service and not the Global or LTE settings. Strangely enough, If I'm on LTE, and I switch to WiFi, the issue remains. If I force 3G and then go on WiFi, the issue is gone.
I've tried uninstalling certain applications that come stock with the phone.. I've tried not updating any applications. I've done factory resets (and I sent an SMS to test without doing 1 update) and it still duplicated. I returned the phone and got another phone. Same issue. On the Sprint end, they changed some settings on my phone and had me reset the network connection via the phone *#*# etc. menu. That fixed the issue, and it lasted 24 hours. Upon either a reboot, or perhaps just a power cycle, the problem returned.
Any ideas as to why this is happening? I have zero Data issues. Hangouts works fine. Youtube, Gmail, Chrome etc are all super fast without issue.
Thank you in advance.

I always just thought this was an issue on Sprints side and not the phone itself. I just started with Sprint myself when I picked up the Nexus, prior to this I had Verizon.
My girlfriend however has been with Sprint forever and no matter what ROM or phone she had, this issue would pop up from time to time.
Now that I'm with Sprint she's told me a few times that she's gotten duplicate messages from me. It seems to happen when we are in spotty service areas from what I can tell. I haven't even bothered calling Sprint like you have though... I just chalked it up as Sprint service is sketchy.

The issue here is that it's not popping up from time to time...it's pretty consistent. I've been with Sprint for at least 7 years and have never ran into the issue until this phone. My prior phone was a Nexus 5...and I have a galaxy s3 here which I can't duplicate the issue on.
We all need to complain to Sprint so they either fix it on their side, or put pressure on Google to fix it on their own side.

This phone is really flaky for me with SMS. Doesn't want to send when I am on wifi. My wife did get a duplicate from me one night when I was trying to figure out why it won;t send when wifi is on but she hasn't mentioned it since. ( I am on Sprint)

Yep, this has been happening to me. My girlfriend started complaining she was getting my text 2x-3x for each message. She is on T-Mo, I'm on Sprint. Tested with a few coworkers on different providers and only 1 out 4 received it more than once and they are on Verizon. Rebooted, tried updating PRL and data profile. She hasn't complained about it doing it anymore but we will see. Super frustrating

I've tried every combination you can think of:
1. Google Messenger as default with and without Hangouts installed.
2. Hangouts as default with and without Google Messenger installed.
3. SMS Messenger AOSP, ChompSMS, 8sms, Textra, Handcent, all with and without Google Messenger and or Hangouts installed.
I've tried forcing 1x, updating PRL and Profile and then going back to LTE. Same issue. Multiple Hard Resets and Data Network Resets. Only ONCE the Sprint support person did something on their end ("Changed a number") and out of nowhere the duplicates stopped. But it only lasted 1 day while using Google Messenger.
This happened to me with my G3 on Att, it just stopped one day and I still don't know what started it

Lol. Yeah. Doesn't hurt. I'm on the phone with Sprint again and they said they are making a ticket with their engineers.
Just picked mine up today from sprint. My buddy who is also on sprint made me aware that he was getting repeat sms from me already. It's funny because I would always complain that I was getting them from him before I jumped to sprint. He's on a LG G2 though.

Don't get me wrong.. the phone is absolutely amazing. I love it. I can't go back to my Moto X, which to me was one of the best Android phones ever made. Again, what people don't understand is this is a REAL issue. People are very quick to say that "bad service" caused it. We're all smart enough to know that if you have bad service, 1 or 2 duplicates can happen, on occasion. Not repeatedly in a full service area or on WiFi.
As an Update:
Everything Sprint tried has failed. However, my original debug information holds true:
1. If the phone is set to 3G mode only: The problem is SOLVED.
2. If the phone is on WiFi, AFTER being set to 3G mode only: The problem is SOLVED.
3. If the phone is set to LTE mode only: The problem REMAINS, unless you are in a no LTE service area and revert to 3G or less.
4. If the phone is on WiFi, AFTER being set to LTE mode only: The problem REMAINS.

She's already complained of getting my messages 4x a piece this morning, so I'm thinking positive!

I just posted my issue.

Incoming Calls aren't going through

This is pretty weird. So, I normally use Google Voice for all of my texts and calls which has worked great up until the past few days. There are no problems with texting, but I've got some issues with calls.
My girlfriend has been pretty annoyed lately because she says I'm not answering my phone, but I haven't gotten any calls, or missed calls. My voicemails still show up and get transcribed however. When I use another phone to call my google voice number It just rings and rings, and then goes to voicemail.
I've done the standard checking of number forwarding etc, and I've made sure that in hangouts its set to ring hangouts when my google voice number is dialed.
So, I figured I would try to call my regular Verizon phone number, and this is what happens:
No ring
"Your call cannot be completed as dialed please hang up and try your call again... etc." "Announcement five switch two dash four five" followed by three beeps and the call ends.
This leads me to believe that it might not be a google voice issue, but could be either a verizon issue or a droid turbo issue.
What do you guys think?

You've brought up two issues. Something is wrong with your underlying Verizon number, something is wrong with Google Voice. Uncheck all options in Google Voice, then re-check mark the ones you want. Just to make sure.
1) if your Verizon number has been cancelled or is inactive for some reason, then Google Voice will not forward to that phone number. Do you have mobile data when you are out and about on the Verizon network?
2) However, if you have Google Hangouts checked as one of the forwarding locations, then when you are on Wi-Fi at least your phone should still ring or indicate a Google Voice call is incoming, if Hangouts was active? (At home, I hear notifications on my PC at home a few seconds before my cell phone starts ringing, because my Google Talk app on the PC starts beeping.)
3) Try a test. Try forwarding your Google number to some OTHER phone . A landline, a friend's phone. Then, call your Google voice number and see what happens.
I did step 1, no dice.
I have mobile data, it works great. I can also place calls via google voice and my regular cellular network.
I will try forwarding to my girlfriends phone when I get home.
My computer is also hooked up, and rings if it is signed in. I think this is an issue with Verizon. I'm going to call them today.
Edit: Forwarded google voice to my girlfriends phone and it worked fine. Definitely a Verizon problem. I'm on support with them right now.
My old man has this problem now and then too.
I've had issues as well with not getting calls n then I'll receive a notification for VM...not sure what's up, happens from time to time...if someone could shed some light it'd be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Not sure about the OP who uses hangouts, but the missed incoming calls using the regular dialer is a known software issue. The solution is to turn on Advanced Calling.

Ya I've had it turned off pretty much since it was released cause it made calls have a lot of static and poor quality, because nobody I know has HD calling...

Yeah, it seems to be the only fix until lollipop (hopefully) solves the issue.
I work for Verizon and it's one of the top known issues for this phone.

Ya hopefully a software update resolves this...I'm planning on switching to the N6 though, was kinda what I wanted, but it wasn't available at the time. And after testing it out it's perfect for me since I enjoy using custom Roms n being on a completely vanilla device. I was surprised how well I could still do everything one-handed. I experience a lot of texting issues with the turbo too...I don't receive some texts and ppl don't receive some texts I send...and often they send out of order...

Messaging issues on T-mobile after upgrade to 5.1

Yesterday I upgraded to 5.1 by flashing the factory images (no userdata wipe). Everything is running great except messaging is all over the place (I'm on T-mobile). I never received duplicate messages on 5.0.1 and now I'm getting them constantly. Also, now when I receive MMS messages (using Google Messenger) I get the "failed to download - click to retry" crap all the time that fails to download. Again, this never happened on 5.0.1.
Is anyone else seeing these issues since upgrading? Is this a T-mobile issue on the server side? Or is this something caused by me not wiping userdata (I doubt it unless it screwed with the APN, which looks normal).

I saw posts reporting this as an issue for Sprint users but I hadn't seen any for T-mobile yet. Thanks for the heads up. I'm guessing if it's widespread than it's likely an issue on the carrier side.
If I remember correctly, people were able to correct the issue by toggling off the "enhanced lte mode" in carrier settings.
I've been having this issue too any one know if toggle enhanced LTE fixes the problem ?

This resolved the issue for me. Kind of a bummer though, since my wife has an HD voice capable phone and now we can't do it

Haha! It's doing a GREAT job at holding the paper down on my desk!! [emoji106]
I turned off enhance LTE and I'm getting MMS from everyone but people on att weird
Yes!! Definitely an issue here. My MMS is all over the place. Some messages come through, others are dropping. If you try to dial "611" to connect to T-Mobile, it fails every time! Turning off enhanced LTE fixes the issue. Seems to be a carrier side problem indeed.
Exact same issues here. Also on tmobile, hoping they fix this soon.
Also have been getting duplicates and texts all over. Really hope its a server issue and not 5.1
Very sick of this error. I send double texts and get quadruple back. Stock unrooted 5.1 userdata wiped via fastboot.
Everyone, please comment on this bug report I filed with Google. This will help give us an answer.

Another work around is to select LTE only in *#*#4636#*#*

Forget suggestion just delayed it
T-Mobile was having issues yesterday. This was not Nexus 6 specific
I'm having the same issue to. I call 611 and it just says call ended. I also noticed my LTE signal is better however the speeds are horrible. I'm getting 3-5mbps where before 5.1 I was getting 15-20 mbps.

Well, I did Google searches yesterday when this was occurring for me and saw plenty of reports, including the Apple forums, lol. I wasn't able to receive text messages for hours after I was receiving duplicate for hours. Later in the evening I suddenly got over 30 texts that had been sent to me throughout the day. My fiance had the same issue on her moto x. Her parents had the same issues on their gs5s and had this weird Nokia message handling error when receiving MMS.

Sometimes Cannot Make or Receive Calls

Hello guys,
Sometimes I cannot make or receive calls. When that happens and I try to call, the call attempt immediately ends. I still have good cellular signal, I don't have call barring, call blocking, Wi-Fi calling.
Turning on and off Airplane Mode solves this but the problem reappears from time to time and I don't even know it until people tell me that I am unable to be reached. I have Android 10 with One UI 2.1
Also, I used the current SIM card in my older A5 2017 phone and experienced no such problem.
