I have the german T-Mobile MDA-Pro with D1. (whytf can't I specifly that in my profile ?) I experience some strange thing with it. When I pick up the phone when someone calls me (by pressing the green phone button) it takes a while until the other side can hear me.
So whenever I answer a call (by pressing that green phone button) I will have to wait 5-8 seconds after the buttonpress until I say something or else the other side wont hear what I say and still thinks I havent answered the phone yet.
Yes! indead...I've got the same problem. is it a software bug?
I too have the same problem, and sometimes it hangs up the call even when I press the green button.
I've posted before and everyone has said 'Use the search'...I have and can't find anything relevent (don't think the search facility of this is very good).
Can someone PLEASE point us.
I really do miss the speed and efficiency of my XDA2s!
I have had some experience of this, it does delay mine was worse before I got rid of all th O2 tat, it is now liveable with, however it is cutting off when I press the answer button !!! OR IS IT after conducting tests using another mobile I found out that
1) the phone does not take very long before O2 divert the call to Voicemail
2) the phone starts ringing long before you know anything about it (its worse if the phone is asleep) it can be a good few seconds before it makes any indication noises
3) it carries on playing the ringtone after the call has been diverted which gives the impression that pressing the answer button is futile.
I have talked to the technical suppport of t-mobile germany and they told me they era aware of this issue and they will be releasing an update in Q12006 that will resolve this issue.

I too have this problem and for the moment while i await any future fixes from O2 or others, i am using the following short-term fix; Under phone settings I have changed the delay period before calls are forwarded to ansafone if unanswered (this works on O2 anywa). One problem with this is that callers may give up before they are diverted to ansafone if you set the delay too long
did this really resolve the issue I was talking about in my initial post ? (that when I pick up the phone by pressing the green button the caller can not hear me for the fist 10 seconds )
I have XDA Exec and kept getting confused why my GF always sounded confused and puzzled when I answered the phone, Id say "hello" and she would wait a while, then say "Hello? you there?"
I never realised it was MY phone that was cutting off my voice at the start of the call.
In regards to the delay ringing, and answering etc, I am giving all my friends instructions to bloody well keep ringing! I turn answerphone off normally as my phone is always on. If you want to speak to me, keep ringing till i answer, if I dont want to talk, ill reject the call.
Why ring twice and hang up? I could be doing anything that takes more than 2 seconds to get that damn phone out of my pocket, get it out the case, open it, see who is calling, press the button, damn, missed call.
Same problem here. I am seriously thinking about using this as just a PDA. I don't think it's practical to use a phone that only works some times. Somebody on HoFo said that the Universal isn't meant to be used as a phone, it can, but it isn't meant to be. I'm starting to agree.
I just like the idea of not having to carry around a phone AND a pda. I kind of hoped that's what the universal offers. But it kind of looks like it doesn't ...
Its a great phone when used as a hands free device, answers almost straight away, and has great volume unlike most hands free - my callers also comment that the line quality is excellent even if a few metres away from the phone.
I do always feel stupid though when using the phone as a standard phone, would feel more comfy putting a brick to my head.
I use the old phone ringer as my incomming call notifictaion and I hear my phone in plenty of time. The standard o2 incoming notification sound was useless. I don't know what T Mobile have but might be worth trying a different notification sound.
Cheers

Did anybody found a solution for this? this is very annoying.
Agreed, its just ridiculously slow - I worry whether or not I've hung up on people too, it takes a good few seconds before the line is actually dropped, let alone for the interface to update.
I've stopped using the "suspend" option and the phone seems to work like you'd expect (even on a cheap cell phone!). But the battery life is suffereing. Hopefully my new spare battery should be here soon.

You mean I should walk around with some spare batteries in my pockets. :wink:
I think my pockets are too small for so many things.
Does anybody knows if this problem is known to HTC? Is there going to be an update?
It isn't possible that a phone doesn't act like a phone in these features that are already working 100 years. I want to pick up my phone and talk immediatly
By the way how do I switch off the "suspend" mode?
What is the "suspend" mode and how do I switch it off?
Look at Settings>Systems Tab>Power>Advanced Tab
Uncheck to "Turn off device if not used.."
This will stop the "suspend" mode
eeek ! Now I know why I would need an extra battery ....
I have a question, has anyone experienced this: Your phone starts ringing, but in addition to the ring you can hear background noises, including the person who is calling.
So basically you can hear the person on the other end before you pick up the phone. Me and my friends did an unscientific test by calling each other, and found we could hear the other person before answering about 25% of the time.
We all have the HTC Touch, but I have experienced this on my HTC Mogul; We also all have Sprint, but the incoming caller does not have to have Sprint, as it has done it with my friend who has Alltel.
Is this some sort of call screening feature of WinMo or is it a strange bug?
I've never noticed this with my Vogue or Mogul.
I recently purchased the VZW VX6900 and previously had the 6900 through Qwest.

i was running a custom rom a few months ago and when i'd get calls i could hear some sort of sounds comming from the rear speaker. i have never actually even thought that it could be from the incoming phone. but to be honest at that time it sounded like it was just some background whooshing sound.
i'm running vetvito's 2.1 rom now and i dont experience this anymore.
Same problem on my Sprint Mogul, but only recently.
And only from iPhone owners.
Hmm.
i have the same thing pen to me too. although it seems like it only happens when my girlfriend calls and she's driving in a certain area.
It's happened to me a few times too. It really freaks people out when I repeat to them what they were saying before I picked up!
It used to happen to be every time on my Alltel Touch until I upgraded to the latest ROM. I wish it still happened, I sort of enjoyed it at times.
It happens to me sometimes, too. It can be fun
Hello, does anyone experience this? You call someone and then it doesnt ring.. I tried like 3 people and it does the same thing.. eventually it disconnects...
this happens to me sometimes, eventually the other person on the line will hang up because im still thinking its trying to connect. i usually put it on speaker so i hear the ringing then turn it right back off. but yes, i do have this issue.
yes i have this issue with CM5b3....if you set it to speaker then back to regular it will work, im not sure if this is a CM issue or just a n1 issue....i also noticed it happens mainly when the call previous was on speaker phone when the call ended, seems to be a problem in the sound routing subsystem
Hello, i've got a strange issue with my Nexus 4. Sometimes, when i make or recieve a call, the signal goes down, but the call doesn't end. And i think that the person on the other side of the phone can still hear me, but i don't hear him. I must close the call and make a new one to keep talking. It happens a couple of times every day and it's very annoying. Does someone have the same issue?
This has been happening a lot ever since I updated to 2.1.2 and I haven't seen anyone else mentioning it. When on a call my mic will apparently just drop out and the other person can't hear me. The call is still connected but one of us has to hang up and call back. Happened twice today in quick succession. Sometimes when it happens I will look at the screen and it is as if I hit the conference call button and put the person on hold, even though I can still hear them. I thought maybe the screen wasn't turning off and my face was hitting buttons, but I determined this is not the case. The screen is off during the call and deliberate touches on the screen do nothing. Any ideas? I love the update and the OS overall, but this issue is a dealbreaker for me.

Following up...this problem is very real, very annoying, and happens every time I'm on a call longer than about 5 minutes. All the sudden the other person can't hear me and I look at my screen and it's as if the conference call button was pressed OR the screen is locked. Either way, my mic is muted. VERY annoying. Happens multiple times per call, every time. This is clearly a software bug and I find it highly unlikely that no one else is experiencing it. I even did a factory reset just as a test, and the problem persists. on 2.1.2
