Cyanogenmod - cannot phone my phone, no SMS alerts...

Hi Everyone, I have searched for an answer to my problem but cannot find anything.
I have upgraded my G1 to Cyanogen, and everything works fine except I get no notifications to text messages, they just arrive, with nothing to tell me they have arrived.
Another problem is when I call my phone, it rings once and then gives an engaged tone. There is nothing coming up on the phone to say I have a call, however it does put the call in my missed call list...
I have checked GSM call settings but all forwarding is disabled.
I have just upgraded to the latest cyanogenmod with the updater software, however I still have the same problem.
Another thing that doesnt seem to work is the home button, and camera button, and the phone no longer locks.
I am at a loss for what to try, apart from trying to flash the phone back to its original state.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When you did the update did you wipe first? You can fix your problem, but you need to wipe your phone. So wipe, then reaaply the update. This does happen to people from time to time, and I've yet to see the direct cause or solution. A possibility is something in the dalvik-cache.

Nexus one - no outgoing sms?

Am I alone in this problem? I've read through the forums, and I don't see anything about it.
Here's what happens: I'm going along my merry way, receiving text messages, when all of a sudden, every text I try and send fails. Everything else works fine. But NO outgoing sms. If I try and reset the radio by going into airplane mode, it will get stuck trying to go into airplane mode and I have to reset.
The sad part is, I'm running a stock rom, and I've only gone so far as to unlock the bootloader.
Any ideas?
Also, I should mention that while this happens, I can still receive sms. Usually to the tune of "hello???", "why aren't you answering me???"

This used to happen to me all the time and it was always annoying the hell out of me. It sill happens once in a while but not as much as it used to. To solve my issue I updated to newest radio and the latest cyan mod. It might just be the T-Mobile network bugging out. I don't k know for sure. Hope this helps somewhat.

I'll try the new radio. But man does it piss me off. It didn't happen too often, but it happened 3 times lastnight alone. Making me want to do something about it.
I'll try the radio today and see how it goes.

I have this problem every now and then, simply have to restart the phone, nothing else solves it!

this used to happen on my g1. it would continue to fail at sending texts until i reboot the phone. and i remember it happening on my nexus but not it seems it has not happend since i updated to the newest radio and CM5.

I am having this exact same issue and its really disappointing since I really love this phone I haven't rooted and just running the stock firmware and I am on Rogers Network in Canada... could it a few defective phones? anyone have any more info or fixes other then reboot and rooting?

I have since switched to modaco's desire rom and everything is working much better now. I'm even using the google mms.apk for my text messaging(i don't like the htc one), and everything works fine. I haven't had it happen yet, and I've been using this rom for weeks now.
If anybody is having this issue, I suggest you try it. The modaco rom is nearly flawless.

I second, apparently instead of addressing the nexus issues Google is working onthe next major update so hopefully that will come with fixes for all of the bugs, exciting things are coming...

Can't make calls & won't hang up (HD2/leo)

Can anyone help??
I've had my leo for a while now and I love the phone with one major exception.....
Sometimes when I call a contact nothing happens then after an eternity, 2minutes, the call is placed. I have good network connection and have tried it with and without 3G.
When this error is present I also get a problem whereby I can't hang up.
This seems to be a software problem. I'm on the T-mobile network in the UK. Does anyone else have the same problem?
I couldn't find anything on the forums. I've tried stripping programs/software off and have tried both hard and soft resets. The problem appeared to go away after a hard reset but then appear again weeks later for no apparent reason.
I have the original ROM version (1.43.110.2) and no significant mod's apart from Cookie home screen tabs and a few simple registry tweaks.
Any help guys, I'm contemplating taking the phone back but will I just end up with a reconditioned model? Mine's in mint condition and I don't want to end up with some banged up phone.

Hi, Did the phone work before the reg tweaks and software installation? A new T-Mobile UK ROM was published on the 15th, it might be an idea for you to flash your phone, test it then tweak, if it doesn't work after you flash it then speak to T-Mobile. If it workls after you flash it but not after you tweak then there's your problem Here is the link to HTC's UK web site with the download. I'd guess that T-Mobile will have a link on their support site for it too, somewhere: http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=2.
Hope this helps.

Mine does the same thing. Also mine also freezes when I get incoming calls. After I talk to the other person, I can't hang up. It's frozen. I have to hit the reset button on the back or take out the batter. I have two HD2's T-Mobile US Versions on release day.
I did do some HD2 tweaks to turn on the LED when I get messages though.
I'm going to reset both devices and see what happens. Maybe the old softwares don't work on the HD2 even though it's for WinMo 6.5.
I really hope it work, because I hate to return the unit. It's a beautiful hardware.

Thanks CMMY, I'll try installing the new ROM as soon as I get a chance.
I didn't have the problem before installing software/tweaks; but then again it was only probably a couple of days before I played around with it. After I did a hard reset and reinstalled some software it was working fine for at least a week before the problem re-occured, which seemed quite strange. Today the phone is working fine but will undoubtedly return, the fault seems entirely intermittent.
Daily driver: I also have the same problem when recieving calls. I'll let you know how I get on.

Same problem here, my phone is 3 days old and I have to remove the battery to end most calls, did a master reset and thought that fixed it. Couple hours later it was back at it. I'm using a tmobile hd2. This seems to be a very common problem, hope they come out with a patch soon..

Same problem here, hope it gets fixed someday

same problem
all the same..

I have this issue across diffrent roms, soft reboot does not fix it. just fixes itself after a while

Hi
Did you find a solution to this problem?
I'm using GSM HD2 Europe.
This problem start occurring after a while when I was using 29 Aug Energy rom.
After a reset the phone work ok for few hours.
When to problem start, the send physical button does not work.
if I want to make a call I must use the "phone" from the start menu.
When I try to end the call, the phone software stop responding, but the operation system keeps working.
In order to end the call I must remove the battery.
I when back to the original rom 1.66 from HTC site.
the problem still exist but less frequently.
(by the way the original rom work much slower then the energy custom rom.)
I’m wasting so much time on this phone, and I’m on the verge of giving up .
I will be happy to get some help.
Thanks
Ran S

If you do not have BsB tweaks, but used tweak #44 in "Leo's tips and tweaks", this can cause problems for some.

can't hangup
I found the reason for this problem. (at least for the specific problem I had)
I'm using resco keyboard.
if I leave the Caps lock on after using the keyboard, then the "Send" HW button does not work, and you can't hangup calls.
by opening the keyboard again and releasing the caps lock the all work fine again.

I've also had this problem... Made me consider selling this otherwise great HD2, sometimes even running it over with a car
When I want to make a call, phone just won't dial - it freezes, but everything else works fine (only "phone app" freezes). So, I give up the call. Few minutes later, it unfreezes, and phone starts calling. Usually, from my pocket. Also, after a call, I can't hang up. I often ended up with removing the battery.
I tried everything...
Restarting the phone makes everything ok, but only for a few minutes.
Installing different app, tweaks, etc - nothing.
Removing everything and returning the phone to factory settings - nothing.
Then, I remembered to disable Sense. That was it. I have used the phone without Sense for months, and it didn't happen. Not even ONCE!
Can anybody here do anything with this?
I still want to use Sense because it looks awsome, way better than Windows interface...

You could try a custom rom. I have been using Dutty's latest and greatest without any of the problems you're describing.

[Q] Can't make phone calls, Data still works

So, I went to make a phone call earlier and realized I hit the wrong number. I ended the call immediately and then immediately tried to call the right number and the call just ended before it even rang. Now I am unable to make phone calls as every time I try to call any number it says calling and then the call just instanly ends. Anyone have any idea what is going on?

First option would be to power off and pull the battery. If it doesn't work after trying that, than second option would be to perform a hard reset.
Regards,
Tom

are you running the stock rom, or are you rooted with clockwork recovery installed, and running a different rom?

I have definitely tried rebooting, removing battery, sim, etc. I have now discovered that this only happens when I am at work. I am going to have to do more extensive testing to figure out exactly where I can make calls and where I can't but could it have something to do with which tower I am connected to? I have full signal and data and sms work fine.
*edit* I have not rooted it yet or installed a custom ROM.

Okay, well. Now it appears to be working. Now I'm really confused. Anyone have any ideas what is going on?

nope, it sounds nuts to me.
i would recommend using the phone a lot and trying to recreate the problem under specific circumstances. perhaps its a faulty piece of hardware.

No sound on voice calls

As the title says, I have no sound from the earphone during voice call. Also, when trying to call somebody, it shows on their phone but they can't hear anything from me.
The problem appeared suddenly, without any intervention from me.
I've tried, without any luck, the following:
- battery pull (several times, to be exact);
- SIM change (also switching operators);
- nandroid backup + data wipe + restore;
- I was running the SAFE 1.37 ROM and had it rooted. I flashed to "not so safe" 1.37 ROM from shipped roms, still nothing.
EVERYTHING else works perfectly on the phone: SMS, mobile data, etc etc.
I'm quite desperate at the moment as I feel I've tried everything I know and I'm thinking it might be a hardware problem that will require me to go back to the seller with it.
Has anyone else experienced this and solved it? I've tried searching on google and here on the forums, couldn't find anything.
Thanks for all your help.

Well I did go with it to the service center.
Should take them no more than 15 days to tell me something...hope it doesn't take that long, though....
In the meantime, if anybody knows anything about this problem, please do post...
It may not help me but it may help others.

Got it back from the service centre today.
Apparently it was just a hardware problem : they've replaced the earphone.
Everything back to normal now, topic can be closed.
