mute/silent when making calls

sorry for bribging this up here.but its a big issue to people who make calls a lot. this topic was made in the general section.but thought I'd bring it up here l,hoping the devs can look into this.
issue: when u make a call,the call log/time logger starts running and u don't hear anything,no ringing or anything.at all.u have to hang up and dial 2-4 times for it to finally ring. apparently the other person ur calling receives the call but hears nothing as well. this issue has been reported on dk28 roms.I , myself am running bonsais latest ext4 rom and am having this issue still. some people have suggested that turning the speaker phone on and off when making a call fixes this,but I refuse to do this for all my calls.lol.no offense to the developers,but coming from a hero,I never had calling issues whatsoever . and having issues like this on an expensive ass phone doesn't make sense lol.please help.thanks.

Same issue here! Except on mine it will show the call timer and the other side can hear me but I can't hear them... gotten me in trouble already haha. Annoying that our 600 dolar phones can only make phone calls sometimes.

I have this issue as well on dk28, if you go back to dl18 it fixes it. And its not the phones fault its the unofficial leaked froyo

Please post questions in General section.

I have the same problem, and it's persisted across 3 different ROMs (all DK28 based, though).
If it's truly a problem with the leaked source, why are more people not experiencing it? It affects at least 75% of my outgoing calls. Do people just not use their phones as phones that much?
I haven't tried the speaker trick yet.

Have this issue a well. Found that if u cycle ur speaker phone on and off it will correct for one call

I've had this problem as well.
I thought it was cause I accidentally put my phone in between two slices of bread with cheese and mustard and bit into it...

yup add me to the dk28 phone outgoing call issue list 8)
Edit: It does not happen every time but I will have to give/remenber the speaker phone cycle test when it does.

help please, call/sound issue after flashing latest nightly CM

So I've been looking for an answer but I haven't come across one. There are a lot of similar issues but I haven't found one exactly like mine.
I'm a noob.. so sorry for that. I just rooted my samsung vibrant last night and I flashed the latest nightly cyanogenmod. Everything was fun and going great and still is except for the fact that my phone is more like a badass itouch with no calling ability now. When I try to make calls, it stays stuck on dialing like it's trying to get signal to complete the call but the call actually gets through. I know this because the person I was calling called back. Though the call gets through, I can't hear anything. There's no ringing when I call someone. I can't tell if they pick up and if they do then I can't hear them.
I haven't yet tried to wipe and reflash or backup to how my phone was before i flashed CM because it took forever to get things just how I wanted them. I was hoping to find a fix before I did these.
Awesome features, but I'll be sad to see these go if my phone can't make calls.
please help?

Keep trying to reflash. Do not use nightly 9. Try 6...worked for me after many tries.

Agreed. #9 has an issue with audio during calls. #7 has worked well for me.

wow, thanks a lot! now everything is working perfectly

Glad to hear it--recent nightlies have been a bit off.

Experiencing missing calls

I had this problem since SC roms but now I have Evil froyo rom and having alot more missing calls. My friend told me that he called me three times but didnt get any....i really dont care about the multimedia but phone calls!!!! phone should functioned as it should be but its not...so anybody knows how to solve this problem...?? I tried to do *228 thingy but still doing this...

What radio/modem are you using? Try using ED04, if you're not already on it. I had your problem before and ED04 seemed to help.

Go back to eclair with ea28 radio. There is no froyo rom/radio free of this issue currently available. I have tested all radios available right now and had missed calls on all of them. ED04 made it even worse actually.

I've tried numerous radios, roms, and kernels and am currently on stock ED04 with the same issues. I think ED04 is actually worse on my phone as well. I've read about quite a few people having the same problem and the overall consensus is that it's a hardware issue.

For ****s and giggles, Odin the EC09 radio. I personally use it and find it to be pretty nice, much faster data speeds, and it MAY fix your issue.

It's not a FroYo deal, it's a network issue. My wife's Fascinate is still on DL09 and she has missed calls too. A lot of people believe it is an issue with LTE affecting 3G, since the problems started popping up around the same time LTE was flipped on

Call and complain... They know it's a known issue, but they are not fixing fast enough. It's pretty sad. I miss calls from the wife and boss... You may even get the droid charge...

Yeah I did call and they offered me another Fascinate, Droid X or D1 so nothing that I could accept. The only upgrade that makes sense available right now would be Charge but had no luck convincing them. Right now I'm testing EC09 leak modem and so far all calls came through (as far as I know) but it was just 2 days so it's too soon to know if it helps or not.

They won't offer me jack... Am I saying something wrong? Hahaha

This freakin issues is pissing me off since i got this VZN fascinate imported here in India ,
and its not NETWORK its just bloody FROYO and FASCINATE , somehow all froyo ROMS have got this crap issue.
i have started inumerable threads about so many ROMs and setups but this issue always keeps coming back.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that the GB roms wont have this bug..
Just to keep myself connected i have yesterday flashed back to dl09 debloated and using ed04 ( i know its full of crap this modem is , but i am giving it a shot with dl09 and so far in last 24 hours havent missed a single call.

I'm on hold with VZ tech support right now, I can't stand this bug anymore.. I'm trying to find a new job so I can't afford to be missing calls
edit: they're sending me a new fascinate.. might just have to buy another phone and use my fascinate as an mp3 player

Trying out the EC09 (gingerbread) radio.. I may not know anything for a few days.

I have been having this problem every since I started using froyo
if I switch back to eclair it is gone
It is not in the radio
It has to do with the phone going in a deep sleep it will not wake up
The deep sleep is causing other issues with sms, mms, alarm not working when set all because it will not wake up
Alot of problems Same cause
The only way I have found to stop this is go to Eclair

Yes indeed, ECLAiR is the only answer for this issue.
if anyone wants to install debloated rooted version of dl09 then simply ODIN this > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911677
after that boot it up
store latest SU file in sd card and this debloated ROM (only ROM and nothing else ) from adryn >>
http://adrynalyne.us/files/roms/DL09_2.zip
and then again shutdown and ODIN CWM and without booting install SU first via recovery
boot up
shutdown
reboot into recoveryand flash the alreday stored adreyn's debloated version.

My wife has always been on DL09 and still experiences it... Which is why I keep saying it isn't a froyo issue

You are probly right
It just got way worse with froyo

Is it doing this on the GB Leak

Been using it for couple days. Nothing new to report, went back to ED03. If we could just get the stability of GB 3G signal I would be a very happy camper.

+1 for the EA28 modem, at least for my phone in a VZW marginal reception area where 1x reigns supreme. Easy to get the missed calls, by attempting calls during bootup, sleep-wake, busy with GPS/aGPS, etc.
In my particular case, ED04 made things worse. EC09 was much much better. EA28 had the least missed calls as far as I can tell (n=1). YMMV.

Deep Sleep Missed Calls
Download softlocker from market. Keeps the phone from going into deep sleep and helps out with the missed calls issue. It is mostly for tablets but will also work for android phones.

Droid X Gingerbread Cellular Disconnect

Has anyone else here had issues with the Droid X having cellular network disconnect issues?
What I mean by this is that the 3G stops all together, you cannot make outbound calls or SMS messages. The 3G icon goes away, yet I can see bars on the antenna strength meter.
The only way to fix this is to reboot the phone, even putting in airplane mode doesn't work. It happens about every 1.5 to 2 days on this phone. I've factory reset it, gotten a replacement phone, etc.. Nothing works and it all started with the Gingerbread update.
I'm not the only one I can tell you that, many others on the moto forum are having it too.. https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/52111
I have an ADB logcat that I could send to some folks smarter than me if someone wants to look..

http://androidforums.com/droid-x-support-troubleshooting/354058-loss-data-voice-connection.html
Another forum posting I've found..
Glad to see there are more people with the issue.. Now its getting Motorola to listen....

There must be something unique that you are doing. I burn about 2200 min a month of cell time, and I've had no issues.

Yeah that happens to me, I sbf back to froyo, and now I'm on liberty rom, no more cell disconnect
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

I'm to the point where I want to get away from Motorola all together.. This phone has always been quirky, now its just totally unreliable. I have an HTC incredible (CM7) and have 0 issues with this, so I know its not a cell reliability issue in my area.
I can tell you that I ran CM7 for a few days on the DX with no issues at all. However CM7 has a few other annoyances that the wife didn't want to deal with.
I'm working with Verizon and it sounds like they're to the point of offering up a different phone..

I was having a similar issue. Spent countless minutes on tech support with vzw, countless resets, even sent me a replacement phone and had the same issue. Determined it was google voice at fault. Had to do a factory reset from the moto bootloader (not from settings/privacy), and it finally solved the issue.
If you're using google voice, try getting rid of it, and disconnecting it from your phone.

Well, I don't use GV, but had it on my phone...
I've uninstalled, and rebooted (not factory wipe)...
I'll see how it goes...

I asked in the moto forum and one user responded so far saying that they have the issue but don't have google voice installed..

I had the same problem with OTA Gingerbread. Cyanogenmod 7 fixed all my problems. No lie.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA Premium App

Hi,I'm now having these issues and more since gingerbread. Sad thing is, I had NO issues with this phone while on froyo. Verizon wants to do a complete factory reset, but that means i'd lose everything on the phone. I have it all backed up, but it takes a while to set up the damn thing the way I have it. I feel if tat what Verizon recommends, they should help set it back up.
Sent from my SCH-I800 using XDA Premium App

After dealing with the issue with Verizon they agreed to let me swap the phone out for a different phone. The only rule was no 4G or no iPhone. Right now we settled on the HTC Incredible 2. I have the original Incredible, while the HTC software isn't perfect, but at least I haven't had these issues..
Bye bye Motorola.. Another plus, if this HTC has issues, as least I can run CM7 easily now..

I had(?) the same problem
history:
before upgrading to 2.3.3 my Droid X was on Froyo and rooted. In fine noob fashion I deleted bloatware during that time without backing it up so when I attempted to updated to Gingerbread I was **** blocked.
The resolution was to SBF the phone back to stock Froyo then upgread to Gingerbread, it worked like a champ... sorta
I kept noticing that the phone was really sluggish on reboots, it also kept dropping the network connection, mostly when I moved out of a wifi hotspot, the 3G wouldn't connect, not until I rebooted. I tried a few things, uninstalled misc programs blah blah blah, some of it seemed to have worked temporarily but nothing was permanent.
So, yesterday, I did a Factory Data Reset, actually had to do it 3x's since the first 2 times somehow goofed the market so that it wouldn't download and install . But 3rd time was the winner and now everything seems resolved, no more whacked out loss data connections and faster reboots!
so my suggestion - Factory Data Reset

I totally agree. Vzw tier 1 tech support can be a waste of time. After taking 30 minutes to tell me to turn on wifi, one guy told me to right click on the settings menu. I told him it was a touch screen, does that mean I have to use my right hand?

I have the same problem on rooted OTA gingerbread. My solution for the time being is to setup tasker to reboot the phone at 3am everyday. If i go back to froyo the problems go away. I posted about this a while ago. It doesn't fix the problem it just masks it but I start with a fresh phone every morning.

I have the issue too, it started right after Gingerbread.
It was *really* bad until I re-activated my phone but it still happens almost every 48 hours.
As best as I can tell, it is most likely to happen when wifi is on and you have a weak cdma/3g signal.
I'm glad to hear that CM7 seems to clear it up. Between hardware instability, the compass quality being degraded and the ever imposing presence of Blur, I'm thinking I'll never again own a phone with a locked bootloader if I can help it.

I also setup tasker to reboot my phone at 3am every night. Did this several weeks ago and I've not had a network access issue since. Not a great solution but if you got root it does seem to make the problem go away.

Hey, let me know what you think of it. I thought about grabbing one cheap and using it until a good 4G & dual core comes out.
Not sure I could go with the smaller screen though.

I have this issue on an unlocked dev dx which has slightly older hardware than the current DX's but I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one with the issue. I'm going to experiment with some different radio versions, because this didn't happen with all the different leaked GB radios. It wasn't until I think the 588 build that it started for me.

+1
I have had this issue ever since GB dropped for it. I am on my third X since GB. The first one smoked a memory card and battery. So I got a like new phone and all the fixings. Then the second one was also having the data issue and the camera took a **** (shutter was stuck closed). All of these have also not only rebooted randomly from day 1 with GB. Go to make a call phone reboots, send a text phone reboots. I thought it also was apps and heard about Google Voice causing it. So when I got this third one I only setup apps that it came with and nothing else. not even 2 days into having it the same **** was there. Less frequent but still there. They are going to get screamed at until I get a new device.

Switch to cm7. I love it.

Gingerbread still has random reboot...

I thought gingerbread was going to fix the Atrix random reboot issue. Well it has not. Late last night while using the Atrix, poof. It restarted itself. This is probably my fourth Atrix, but it has lasted the longest without a reboot.

It has happened to me atleast twice now ever since updating OTA to Gingerbread.
Phone is just rooted nothing else.

I have never experience this problem on stock or custom roms. You don't have any custom kernels installed, such as overclocking, do you?

In my experience (maybe twice in a month) this happens when there is signal/reception, but no data, and you start pushing the phone my trying multiple data enabled apps.
On both occasions I had full bars/signal yet no data (stupid telco) or very slow data, in frustration I was hitting refresh, opening other apps to kill time / see if it was app or network problem etc. then BAM. Kinda like how a corporate windows build loses its mind if it loses its connection to its domain resources.
Annoying

I had this issue before, and it was an issue with the phone itself not the software. If it is still within your 90 days return it for a new one and that should fix your problem.

no chance for me, in Australia, grey market import
In all honesty not a big deal if it doesn't happen too often

I'm on stock everything on my Atrix. I font think swapping the phone works, like I said this is my fourth Atrix lol.
My reboots happen at random. No specifics are the same at anytime. If I do swap it again though it will be for another phone entirely, but for what I don't know. I know a few people with the Inspire and they've had their problems. I know one person with the Infuse who has yet to have an issue, but either way I'm taking a huge downgrade.

Reboots
Anyone got a solution? I just updated Tuesday and I have had many random reboots. I am having the reboot 3-4 times a day. I never had the issue prior to Gingerbread.

I haven't had any reboot issues on mine nor my GF's, but I agree that it seems to be either the phone or a faulty app.
I know someone that had 2 from early batches and finally had a stable one after returning the others and hasn't complained of any issues since then.
Another co-worker had issues but uninstalled an app that kept force closing and never had the reboot issues come back.
One other thing to try is a factory reset...if it hasn't been attempted yet.

just had my first reboot over the weekend. other than that its not rebooted yet. but its only a week old.
