Making calls, phone goes silent - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So when I make a call the phone will ring once or twice and then goes silent, next thing I know either I get a hello or the voicemail from the other aide but it goes silent for a while...is this a bug? Stock.

Straight talk? Check your APN settings.

This happens to me too all the time. Both of my N6's had this issue. Don't think I've ever had this issue pop up like this before.

Who's your carrier?

T-Mobile

Disable your advanced LTE during calls or whatever, that will fix it. It only happens when you call Verizon people right?

One Problem about XDAndroid on Topaz

I use 2.1 Eclair. There is one problem. The message and EDGE network are OK. But I can't get any calls. That means someone call me, they can find it's normal by their side, but my phone no ring or anything, just like no calls coming.
What's the problem to that? Please help me.
I like XDAndroid~!
Hello,
This happens to me too. Turns out the speaker is not
working (hence no ringing) and the screen remains
turned off, so no visual cue. But the phone is in fact
ringing and you can answer the call.
I 'solved' the problem by switching on vibration
Regards, jan
I think my phone has some problems. It often goes sleep shortly, about ten seconds.... And the light turn green. When it's asleep and the call comes in, the phone always sleeps. But my phone is awake, the calls can come in.

Thats a known issue, it appears after going to deep sleep you wont receive any calls.
How can I let the phone not deep sleep? I don't want to lose any calls.

Here comes another problem. I have no idea whether it causes the problem that the wifi cannot search any networks in android. But the calls can come in when the phone sleeps now. May I have your help for the wifi problem?
楼主,我的情况还不如你呢!我电话短信都不能用,只有WIFI是好的。
My phone only WIFI is good, can not call and send msg.

[Q] Voicemail notification only goes away on a sense ROM

This is going to sound weird, but I have a persistent voicemail notification that only goes away if I switch to sense (which I don't want to do). When I call my voicemail, it says my inbox is empty. Every GPE ROM I've used caused me to have the notification. I've talked with Sprint multiple times, I've had them reset my voicemail box, but I still have the notification. Do any of you guys know how to fix this?

wiping SetCPU

Does anyone know how to completely remove setspu files? I have tried to wipe it, unstall it and for some reason whatever it does to modify the hardware is still there. I am having issues with incoming calls with this app. The diealer doesnt show up when i get an incoming call.
Thanks

uninstall setcpu, its been a long time since its been updated. last time it was updated was in april of 2013! it doesnt work right with lollipop nor with the nexus 6. there are many cpu control apps that work with lollipop and the nexus 6, setcpu is not one of them.

are you wearing a screen protector or a case? try taking the case off then have someone call you. its a known issue when wearing certain cases.

not a screen protector issue. had it on for about 2 weeks without issues. installed setcpu last night and not im having issues. doing a factory reset resolves the issue but then im too lazy to download all my apps and set it all up. so, im looking for the files that setcpu modifies or adds so i can delete/edit them.
Figured it out. I simply had to reset app preferences. somehow installing setcpu caused them to get all messed up

I like SetCPU because I can make profiles. For example, my kernel is set 300-1247 with screen is of, another setting is when the phone is in call, and full speed when screen is turned on.

Microphone Problem on N Preview

So I've had multiple calls this morning come into my phone where the microphone doesn't appear to be working, even via Bluetooth. Got a call from my boss earlier and the phone wasn't picking up anything I said. After a reset I was able to make a call and could be heard on the other side, then switched to a BT headset and was still working. Cut to an hour later and I take an incoming phone call while on BT in my car and the same thing happened, it was like I was on mute. Has anyone else run into a similar issue on their N6 or on the N Preview???

I am having the same issue. People can't hear me what so ever. Will probably have to flash back to M.

I am on AT&T though I just tried something and it may have fixed it. I downloaded Hangout Dialer to see if making a call on my phone via Google Voice would work. When I called someone, a little popup on the bottom came up and it said, your microphone is disabled, with a button that said enable. I clicked that and now it seems to be working. Not sure how the microphone was disabled.

Thanks for the heads up, I tried that and Hangouts said the same thing. I wonder if it is going to keep turning the mic off or if this is a permanent fix.

I will probably do a bit more testing on it, but luckily I found out a workaround. I assume that "fixed" your issue as well?

The Hangouts Dialer fix only seems to be temporary, as the mic gets disabled every few hours still. It's not a major problem for making calls, because I can use the Hangouts dialer and it lets me know if I need to enable it. Doesn't work as well though for incoming calls because I don't have a chance to enable it, so it's kind of a crapshoot if it's going to be working or not.

Yea, Same thing happened to me just this morning. Luckily I already knew how to fix it.
exact same here....just started out of the blue this morning. rebooted, tried bluetooth etc, nothing worked..... I turned on my 6 to try calling myself via hangouts, and lo and behold a message: 'enable mic' I came to this thread via a goog search on how to enable the mic....Ive never seen a setting for that ever before! Anyway, the hangout process worked so far
How did you flash? Ota or syste.img?
When I came to the N preview..i wiped system, data,cache and dalvik cache. Then i flashed the N system.img, a modified boot.img and SU. I haven't had any of the problems that some are reporting with N. So I'm wondering what is the main difference between install methods.

Note 8 will not stay on vibrate

Has anyone experienced their phone reverting back to ring instead of vibrate? I always have my phone on vibrate but lately it automatically goes to ring. Can someone tell me what's up with this
That happened to me with my note 7, but not with the 8

No. I'm not rooted and don't have any mods at all.
Maybe a factory rest or just turn your phone off and on.
This is happening to my phone as well and it seemed to happen randomly. I thought i might've not changed it to vibrate but it has since rang while at work multiple times when i KNOW i'm putting it on silent or vibrate.

I have turned in off and back on. Factory reset will be my last option tho. I hate starting everything over again.

Yes it happens randomly but I miss calls because it goes to the lowest ring volume so I can't even hear it.

How can I tell if there is a rogue app. I haven't installed any new apps lately
Update: seems like the only way I fixed it was to do a factory reset.

Check that you havent set it up on a schedules or messed up Do Not Disturb. Theres a built in app that I think called Samsung Connect that allows you to connect to other samsung devices but, also lets you set what happens during certain times of day or when you get home. Like your ring turns down at 7pm or when you get home. Id check that out aswell.

Yeah. I see that app but I never used it before. I opened it and I don't see any options for ring or vibrate.
