G4 sending calls straight to voicemail! - T-Mobile LG G4

I've made sure that call reject list is set to off. For whatever reason though, when a call comes into my G4, the call app displays for about a second and then it refuses the call automatically causing it to go straight to voicemail. Anybody experience this issue?

I don't have this issue.
1) Is this T-Mobile branded phone?
2) What is the coverage or does this issue occur only in some places?
3) Are the settings correct under "mobile networks"?
4) Is Wifi calling feature is on/off under call settings?

Interesting. I have tested my phone vs 4G and LTE connection, don't have any of your phone issues. Couple of things came to my mind. If your sim card is not fresh, try replacing it or ask a friend if he/she has newer sim card and try to make few calls. Another important thing is VoLTE, it is also in the call options above wifi calling. IF VoLTE is on, try to turn it off and user your phone for a day and see.

I agree with this. I turned off VoLTE and my calling got better.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I tried them all. In the end, I narrowed the issue down to google voice. When I first got my G4 I tried setting google voice to be the primary voicemail service. I'm on a postpaid plan, so there shouldn't have been any issues. Not sure what happened, but it obviously screwed something up. If people call my T-Mobile number directly the call goes through just fine. If they call my GV number, the voicemail picks up just before the first ring on my G4. The caller ID pops up and then disappears as if I touch the decline button. I've tried setting my T-Mobile voice mail back to default and called T-Mobile. The problem is not persistent. It is intermittent.

Can't make calls

For some reason I can't make calls. I'm using the stock dialer on a stock rooted ROM (see sig).
I dial a number and it looks like it's working (the call timer starts counting and what not) but it never actually calls. Just silence.
I haven't been able to test receiving calls yet but I did at least get some missed calls earlier when I was away from my phone (it was when I tried to return those calls that I discovered this problem).
I'm on Verizon. I have LTE set as my "Preferred Network Type" in Cellular Settings. Data works fine in both LTE and 3G areas. Texts work fine. Just calling seems broken.
Had anyone seen or heard of this? I searched this forum but didn't find anything.
poor connectivity on WIFI network on nexus 6
I also face the problem if not able to make/receive calls when WIFI network is activated.

Are you on the 98r radio? That's the one that ships with the Verizon branded Nexus devices and is different from the radios in the other 5.1 builds.

what if you turn on your speaker?
nevermind, the ops post is from jan 14th, and someone brought up this thread again. people, this post is before the 5.1 update came out. let this thread die.

[Q] Should one want to turn on VoLTE on VZ?

Ok,
We all know that turning on Advanced Calling 1.0 on your account is free, includes HD voice to other callers that are similarly enabled, and most of all - it gives us back voice and data at the same time.
But are there negatives to go with the positives?
I've scanned the threads and wanted to consolidate this here.
I've heard if you are on adv calling and move out / drop off 4G your call may get lost. I haven't heard how one makes a call, or if it will make a call if out of a 4G area or on wifi out of a 4G area and you try to place a call.
So, that said, what are the experiences from our vast userbase here?
Has turning it on caused any issue for you? either with making/receiving calls, data use, or even other issues with the N6 once you enabled it? (I'm stock right now, what about ROM's? )
(for purposes of streamlining this thread, the conditions are that you got the phone from Verizon, or have it established on Verizon and have been able to enable the option)
I turn on day 1 but I don't have anyone to call that has that option so nothing really changed for me I don't find my coverage any better or worse. I do notice I have voice and data now (at the same time I mean)
Sent from my Google N6 on VZ
VZW Volte
When I go to Verizon website to select volte in my plan a pop up says 1 or more of my other selections i already have is not compatible with volte and must be unselected to get volte. It is saying Ringback Tones needs to be unselected.
Has anyone else experienced this?

missing/disappearing calls with tmobile s6

Hi does anyone else have disappearing calls when connected to LTE using a tmobile based s6?
This issue only occurs when LTE is active.
An incoming call will ring once or twice and go straight to voice-mail even though I have full bars

Go to your Phone App settings and turn off Wifi calling and VoLTE.
I'm sorry I have already disabled WiFi calling, and the problem persists but also - I don't have a separate 'VolTE' setting to toggle. Is it because it only appears if I have a T-mobile sim card inserted?
Thanks for your help!
EDIT for anyone who may run in to this issue: I fixed this by flashing Emporia Rom by iB4STiD, it seems to disable whatever t-mobile left over sorcery that was messing with AT&T calling because the rom is not based on t-mobile firmware
Now the calls come through 99% of the time but sometimes takes about 5 rings to connect to me. . arrr

happens to me on even international firmware too. only works well right when i reboot the phone.
I have this issue also with a tmobile s6 on att. What method did you use to unlock the phone? I used the metro pcs firmware to unlock the phone and when I updated to 5.1.1 is when all the issues started. On 5.0.2 I used the tmobile unlock app and everything worked perfect. I receive one in every 3 incoming calls, like you said it rings twice and mine doesn't even go my voicemail, it just says "the wireless number you are trying to contact is unavailable then hangs up", out going calls take 30 seconds to a minute to connect, very annoying. Talked with att on the phone for hours about this problem and they cant seem to get it fixed on their end.
Same...I disabled lte and just use 4g, seems to work fine.

Can't make calls on VZW after switching back from Fi

I decided to give Project Fi a try after the word came down about Verizon raising the rates for unlimited data plans. Long story short, it's not for me. The coverage stinks in the areas I travel. Battery life took a big hit due to it having trouble finding and keeping a signal. I thought it would be better having looked at the TMo coverage maps. Anyway, that's a different topic.
I hadn't canceled my Verizon account so I put that SIM back in and it seems like I am connected to Verizon's network again. All the texts sent to that number came through once the phone was turned on with the VZW SIM back in. However, I can't make any calls. I get an operator error about being unable to complete the call. The Cellular Network Settings only has a roaming setting. Don't have the Enhanced VoLTE option and the other things I had prior to switching to Fi. Did the *#*#4636#*#* thing to try turning the radio off and on, turning on the VoLTE provisioning flag, rebooted, etc. No change in my ability to make calls. Anyone have any ideas what I need to do to get voice calls working again? If it matters, I am on 5.1.1 LMY48T.

The solution is to go into the calls section of the dialer and disable the call assistant settings.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ProjectFi/...ing_between_verizon_and_project_fi_sim_cards/
OK, so I can make calls again by changing the setting above. But I am without simultaneous voice and data. Still missing most settings under Cellular Network. Any ideas on how to get that back? Is there anything I need to toggle in the *#*#4636#*#* menu?
I'm having the same problem. But the issue is my phone is operating In Ireland, I've never lived in the u.s but I don't have call assistant in my dialer settings...I have data and texts and can receive calls but can't dial out, I obviously don't have access to projectfi here in Ireland and it is installed on my phone but its disabled and always has been, really strange I flashed the ROM for marshmallow automatically suggested by NRT for my device, but I'm wondering if the rom I flashed was u.s. specific even though it didn't suggest that in the rom I flashed...it has me absolutely baffled.

This came up alot when the N6 was first released last year. You will need to factory wipe the phone, and then you will have full access to the Verizon network. There is an issue with putting in a Verizon SIM after using another carrier's SIM.. Not sure but it might have affected Sprint also. The posts are out there on XDA about this, if you dont trust me. You can search and find them.

Sorry for the late reply. Life got in the way of me checking back on this thread sooner.
I believe you about the factory reset fixing it. Was just hoping there was an easier way so I don't have to setup my phone again. Perhaps the Marshmallow OTA will fix it but who knows when we'll get that. I'm tired of dealing with the signal issues I have as a result of switching back and forth so I'm going to do the reset. Just to confirm, this is the option under Settings > Backup & reset, right? Or is it something I need to boot into recovery to do?

cannot receive calls

Hey guys i got Samsung s10 with lycamobile on it. It such a strange issue but I can make phone calls but do not receive calls. I tried calling it with an iPhone and it went straight to voice mail. The weirdest thing is when I switched the sims with a tmobile sim from my iPhone to the Samsung, it receives calls perfectly. When I put the lycamobile sim on the iPhone it also receives calls too. I tried turning off wifi calling didn't help. anything Im doing wrong?

We do not know what additional applications you have installed.
Perhaps a restrictive setting, some kind of call blocker?

Nah I have all those off. Do you have the setting location on where it might be? And I’m not sure if it’s even a setting I put my T-Mobile sim in the Samsung and it receives calls perfectly
The other SIM card is lycamobile that doesn’t receive calls and if I put the lycamobile sim in my iPhone it works!
