dialpad not working during call. - Vibrant General

Pretty much like the title says.. when I make a call the dialpad box is grayed out and I can't brink it up. Getting annoying due to the fact that I cant get rid of the voice mail icon or enter pin numbers or anything along those lines.
Anyone have any ideas? I looked for a setting that would enable/disable this, but couldnt find anything.
I know it worked before.. so could an app or something I recently added have disabled it somehow?

When did this start and what were you doing just prior to this problem? Are you rooted?

yes, phone is rooted.
Really hard to say when it started. Ive done some more tests.. Any number I call, including random numbers(like 1234) will bring the dial pad up. only time It doesn't show the dial pad is when I call Softbank's(Japan) voice mail(1416).
Ive even tried to bring up the dial pad, like im going to be making another call, and it wont make the tones that notifies the voice mail service to do anything.

so I guess the question is, how does the phone know to activate the dial pad when you make a call?

universal call answering delayed..

whenever i click the recieve calls on my universal, i'll click the answer button.. and realize that it takes a lil longer for it to actually connect the call..
anyone here have the same problem here? any solutions??
tend to find it depends on:
1. THe phone skin you are using
2. Ring tone specific to each user
3. Caller id picture displays
4. Large ring tones
5. Other apps running simultaneously
6. How long since your last rom update
I think you will find that everydody experiences a 1 second to 2 second maximum delay
I am havin d same prob
Disable the skin on the dailer, and use a windows default ringtone. And a lot of free memory is always a plus
how to disable the dialer skin?
I believe it can be done here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Security/Phone/Skin
Then look for the DWORD "enabled" set it to 0
I am not sure about this though!!! You have to check google (like I did, and found this: http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&Itemid=59&func=view&id=5075&catid=36
I have the same when I get a call, but I can live with that. My problem lately has been that when I get an incoming call my entire device freezes. I can press whichever button I like, but nothing works except a soft reset and then I would have missed the call. Has anyone else had this too? I hope it doesn't happen too often or else I send it off for repair (I pay insurance for a reason).

jup, mine sometimes starts vibrating and just doesn't stop.
Soft reset is the only way to get my phone working again

I have the same problem. When the MDA is open, everything works fine. But when the lid is closed, the mda freezes after an incoming call and softreset is the only solution. Any ideas about that?

Force number pad in phone app?

Is there a way to have the numeric keypad show up during all phone calls? right now it only shows up when i call voice mail. I know I can hit the "keypad button" to have it come up, but this is a step I'd rather not have to take. I do a lot of conference calls from my phone and having the number pad would be far more convenient than the 6 options that I have showing now. My guess was that somehow the phone knows when i am calling voicemail and that's why it keeps the numbers showing...i was hoping there was a way to trick the phone into thinking that all of my calls were to voicemail...
anybody have a clue?
Thanks,
Jason

[Q] Dialpad Numbers Stopped Making Sounds

I somehow seem to have lost the ability to enter numbers on the dialpad when I'm in the middle of a call (to enter an extension, make a phone tree option, etc.). The numbers do make sounds when I'm not in the middle of a call (like to manually dial a phone number), and it certainly worked fine very recently, so I must have made some setting change, but for the life of me I can't find it. The "audible touch tones" options is turned on and every volume setting is set to max under "sound and display." Rebooting did not solve the issue. If anyone knows what I did and how I can get my tones back, I'd be very thankful. Thanks.

Evo wont always stay connected to a call.

The only thing done to this phone is the revolutionary root method to get the tether app. While making an outgoing phone call to 2-3 different phone numbers, the phone would buzz to show it did connect. Then about a second later the screen goes back to the dialer screen. Any idea's??? Thanks.
Does the phone number you're calling have a +1 or other international code in front of the number? The dialer really doesn't like that. There should be a setting in the calls settings for plus code dialing where you should be able to adjust it. But I haven't been on a stock ROM for a while, so I can only assume it's there.
You can call sprint and have them reprovision (re-activate) your phone, that may help. The fact that you are rooted shouldn't have anything to do with problems making calls, thats usually a network issue.
I've had the same issue. Make a phone call and before it even dials it goes straight to lock screen. Or sometimes it does dial then stops the call and goes back to lock screen. I'm on CM7 so I just figured it was a poor signal causing mine. Sense roms do not seem to do this for me.

S4 Galaxy i9500 - Do not call the dialed number!

S4 Galaxy i9500 - Do not call the dialed number!
I'm having a problem with my S4 GT-i9500. He is not making calls. Can I select a contact or enter a number in the dialer that still does not make the connection. When I'm in the contact list and slide my finger to dial, nothing happens. If I type the number and then I click green to make the connection, the number dialed disappears and nothing happens. I've turned off, installed other dialers and nothing worked.
It is not a network problem because I get call and send and receive SMS! I did not make any modification to the phone and did not install any Custom Rom is still original.
I realized that this problem happened after the application whatsapp caught messing up the phone for a few minutes.
I'd find another solution before giving it a hard reset. Has anyone experienced this?
