Calling Glitch - EVO 4G General

I am fully aware I'm using essentially a hand held PC and shouldnt expect it to be as quick calling as a phone only device. However I'm getting a nasty glitch that lasts 10-15 seconds every time I try to call someone. I did the PRL trick and am currently unrooted with the new update. Not sure what is causing this but any help would be great!
Amazing being able to interact with developers....so glad I came across this site.
Thanks guys

Is nobody else lagging at all on calls?

No lag here.

every time some1 calls me i have to wait 3-5 sec to say hello bcuz they never here me the first time

Gf has that glitch on N1. It's due to bad reception, it seems.

The Wierdest problem with N1 [VERY WIERD]!!

Hi,
I have just witnessed the wierdest problem yet on ANY phone I have EVER owned.
The problem is as follows:
While someone is calling, I will suddenly start hearing the person calling me on the loud speaker of the phone WHILE its still ringing and the person on the other end HAVE NO IDEA that I can hear him !!!!!!!!
So I start hearing the ringtone AND the person on the other end both at the same time !!!!.
It happens randomly and it happens without any interferance from me.
The phone is using the Stock ERE27 with superboot and root.
I have no clue as to what could even cause this, or how its possible. If anyone has ANY idea........PLEASE let me know!.
Wow, is this consistent?
I'd say it might be a provider issue actually.. I may be wrong, but I think that unless provider sends a "connect" command that would start transfering the voice over to your phone, your N1 wouldn't be able to make you hear him/her.
Just thinking out loud. Maybe worth calling their support or going on their forums to see if other people have same problem and if it's specific to N1 or that provider.
I never had that problem with any of the phones (AT&T US)

Nope, its not consistent, it happens out of the blue and randomly. But it does happen quiet often........say around once every 2 days or so. I thought it could be provider related as well, but I have been using the same sim card for many years and I never had anything like this......chances are that this started happening from the provider around the same time i started using my N1 are quiet slim........it will have to be one hell of a coincidence.
I have 2 other friends with N1s and they are using the same telecom provider as myself, but they have no such issues :S

Hmm, well maybe it is N1 then. have you tried calling google?
I cant call Google, they wont support me since im not living in the U.S .
Although I bought it from there, but im living in Dubai. So I doubt I will be getting any support from them.

I had this problem alot with my old panasonic gd60 phone in Jamaica on the DIGICEL network. I figured it was cross talking interferance until I started hearing things I shouldn't

Old sim cards can cause problems. At least in the greater than 1-2 year range or so with tmobile and with 3g being added to the network lately. Get a new sim card in store and see how that helps... it shouldn't hurt anything.

That's actually kinda cool, I wish my phone did that.
That's bloody weird :S
well, I would rather find out why or how is this happening before I start changing sims. Because the timming of the problem is too close to ignore ! It only started happening like 2 weeks after I started using N1.
This happened to me last night for the first time. No other phone did this and i used the same sim. My sim is not old.
Finally !! Someone else ! So im not alone.......and this is looking more and more like a manufacturing problem with the N1s......and I would say this a major screw up!
I have the same problem as well, first only with 1 person but at the moment i can hear everybody before accepting. I dont have a problem with it, its good if they say something bad about you.
wow that's a weird bug! we just found a weird bug on the palm pre, where when you are on a call and someone else calls in with call waiting. if the current active call hangs up, the palm pre automatically answers the incoming call waiting call seemlessly so you dont know the difference! yet the phone still shows the original caller ID, and the call time counter still continues for the original call.
kinda a serious bug in a way, lets say you dont wanna answer that person's call, but the pre does it anyway.
It's happened to me on an old Nokia...(6 years ago) on Cingular. I think it's got something to do with the carrier and the simcard security. When it happened to me, it happened the other way. I was calling and I could hear the conversation before they picked up.
Does anyone know where I should be looking to find any clue as to whats happening in background thats causing this malfunction ? I would like to try and re-create the issue other phones.....but I will need to find out first if its software or hardware related.
Basically what im asking is........where do I look (log files and stuff like that) to give me hints ?
I'd like to see how to enable that feature!!! I wanna see what some folks say before I answer their calls!!!
This used to happen to me when I first bought the nokia 6600. When I got an incoming call, I usually press the silence button, hold the phone to my ear, and then pressed answer. But before I could press answer, I could hear the people on the other end, *****ing about me, calling to sell credit card, etc etc.. (lol)
I thought it was the phone, but few other people got the same issue.. with different phones.
it was eventually rectified by the carrier. (As I did nothing to the phone and all was back to normal)
So No one has any bright ideas to solving this mystery ? From the posts so far, it seems like a device issue more than a telecom issue......
lol. it happened to me once.
i have experienced this so many times well mostly with a very old sony phone. like the pervoius post mentioned, u change the volume while ur phone is ringing before answering the call. u put the phone on ur ears and boom.
i enjoyed it when i had that phone. always hearing ppl talking **** about you without them knowing is power: p
anyways my nexus one did it. stock not rooted not unlocked. using it in oman

serious call waiting issue after new firmware

I think i discovered a huge issue with the new firmware. When i have a second line calling me the screen does not wake up allowing me to switch to the second call. In the past, when a second call comes in the proximity sensor would wake the screen and allow me to take or reject the call. Now i cant even see who is calling. Since i use the phone for business, this is a big, big issue. Anyone else experience this?
Can anyone please check this for me please by calling their voicemail and then dialing their own cell # from another phone please. Thanks
you're right. phone does not wake up but you can push the power button wake it up.
I tested.
When the phone beeps to tell me a have another call i take phone away from my head and proximity censor takes a little longer..like 5 sec before screen comes on.
But mine doesn't stay off like yours...tested 5 times

My screen does come on eventually about 5 seconds. Before it used to be instant. Hitting the power button doesn't wake the phone like the other user mentioned. Do u guys think a factory reset will help. I am reluctant to take the plunge cause its such a pain in the neck to reinstall everything.
I have the same issue as well. I tested 3 times and the issue existed every time. I tried to unlock the phone with power button but it wouldn't unlock it (maybe lag?) because after I pressed power button 4 times, THEN it lit up for a moment but by that time, the waiting call already ended.
I'm surprised more people aren't bothered with this serious issue.
Got the same issues, updated via ODIN, argh that's gonna be fun.
Interesting...it would be great if you guys contacted Samsung via email/other method to let them know about the issue. Hopefully they can fix this bug.

I would love to contact them, just not sure where/how. Even if they do fix it, it will only come with another bug fix OTA or Froyo whichever comes first. Given Samsung's track record, this will probably take a while. To me personally, this is an earth shaterring issue since i use the phone exclusively for business being on multiple lines often. Its so bad for me that if it isnt fixed by the time the new mytouch HD comes out, I will have to dump the vibrant even though i love it so much. Me missing calls far outweighs the "love" for this handset.
Its been a few days now since many of us have gotten the update and I am surprised so few of us have not reported this. Has anyone been able to come up with a temporary fix or a replacement dialer to alleviate the horrible issue??
its been a few days now since many of us have gotten the update and i cant believe how so few people have complained about this. It is so annoying not to see who is calling on the second line .
I just got the firmware today and I'd be willing to go back. I missed three calls today because of it. Now what do I do?

What may be causing this?

My phone is just messed up. Every time I get a call or make a call, the phone will just be completely become unresponsive after the call. The screen is completely black, I have to turn off the phone and turn it back on. The phone somtimes turns off on its own (started about a month ago). I have no idea why this phone is reported to have so many issues without any recognition from my service provider, Bell. Every time I talk to their data support they say the phone has been flawless and have no reports of any issues. This phone has such potential to be amazing as long as it just works. I didn't have any real serious lag. The little lag I did have was tolerable. But the phone turning off and becoming unresponsive is of course unacceptable. I can't find my reciept, I bought it at Best Buy. So until I find it, I can't take it to Bell for warranty.
I am running the newest firmware, the phone is completely stock, haven't done anything to it. There has been no applications installed. Had the phone since Aug.24/10.

This sounds like the infamous coma syndromevfound on our i9000m bell SGS models.
My phone just started doing this randomly 60 days after owning it.
There is a thread here all about it. Search the fourms with the keyword comatose and you will find it.
Bell HAS aknowledged this issue and there is a master ticket open fir it. They say they are working with Samsung to resolve the issue. My post in the other thread lists the master ticket number.

Calls going straight to vm and sms delayed

Hi
I have just recently flashed my sprint phone to virgin mobile. Everything is working well except I am noticing some issue which may or may not be related to flash.
If i dont use my phone for while, some people may complain their calls going directly to vm without even a single ring. Even the sms are not being recieved either, but when i try to dial a number, then all the sms would show up coming all at same time with the original timestamp and after that phone would be working fine until I guess I leave it alone for some time.
Right after i ported the epic to virgin mobile, I also upgraded to Clean GB latest ROM. I dont know if the issue is related to ROM itself or maybe a network issue with Virgin Mobile.
The fact that when people call me and it goes directly to vmail, makes me suspect it could be network issue but sms getting the original timestamps making me believe it might have got to phone but never notified on screen.
Couple of years ago, i had same issue on Touch pro phone with Sprint and I remember going to a hidden menu and changing a value of how often the phone could poll the towers of any activity ...
Does anybody have any insight what might be happening. Beside this issue the phone is working in perfect order.
Thanks

This is SUPER interesting! Love every second of it. I've been meaning to write this same exact issue but I thought everyone would think I'm coo-coo. I'm glad you stepped up and said the issue. I don't have call problems I don't think, but I feel like text messages sometimes don't ever go through or get received. If only delivery reports worked for us on Virgin Mobile, and I'd have better insight. I think my issue may just be my crappy signal. Mind checking your cell standby under battery usage, click on it to see your time without signal? I hope to help you resolve your issue and learn along the way on how to improve on my own.

I have good signal all the time.I think it is more related to tower polling having maybe different setting. As long as i keep using the phone, everything works perfect, but if the phone goes for sleep for long time, then the problem starts to happen. I might call vm and talk to tech because they have setting in their system where they can increase the time before the calls goes to voicemail, it might work or maybe not.
Let me know if you do something and find fix for it.
I did some tinkering and found the setting i need to modify is
Slot Cycle Index & ACCOLC Setting . I have to find menu to perform that setting.
the next troubleshooting i need to perform is maybe prl file.
found accolc setting under ##3282# and advanced and last entry is accolc. It is value from 2-9. 2 being shortest and phone polls tower more quickly but it is also issue of battery tradeoff.
I switched mine to 2 and will run the test.
Also gonna put the sprint prl and see if that makes any difference.
I had the same exact issue for almost a month. The fix was super easy. There is a glitch that came with the EL30 update that causes a force close from the "reject with" if you have more than 5 reject messages. I only had 5 but the fix seemed to work regardless. All I had to do was go to menu, settings, call settings, reject with, and then menu button and I deleted all of my reject with messages. Then I reboot my phone and I was now receiving calls just as I used to before the update. Haven't had a chance to see if txt messages are working yet.
