I checked Spare Parts and notice that my Dialer has the most partial wake up use. Why is that? Each time I get a call, does that trigger it to wake up? Because I barely even user the Dialer at all so I don't see why it would be waking my phone up for.
Thanks for any insight!
I'd like an answer to this question as well. I'm currently running meXdroid V2, and I've noticed a lot of Dialler partial wake usage - even when I've not even made or received any calls. I wasn't sure if it was a problem with the rom, but I guess if you're having the issue too, then maybe something else is causing it.
What rom you running?
I'm running CM7, forgot which version, possibly 7.0.2
Just seems weird to me because I usually don't make calls or receive calls until night, but the partial wake amount that dialer uses is still high before the calls are even made.

I'm curious, because I'm new to this phone and smartphones/pocket pcs period, but is this phone quite buggy, or is it due to things I've added. I find that frequently if I do two things at once and it has to think too hard that title bars and such disappear and get stuck and I have to restart it to fix it. This affect seems to multiply if you happen to try to close the slider while it's busy thinking. Last night I got a call while writing an email and closed the slider to answer. By the time the call screen came up, it had already rang 4 times and gone to voicemail, and in the end, it was all messed up again and needed a reboot.
Maybe this is common to these phones, I've just never had one so I dunno. I'm sure the lack of memory plays a major part in how slow it runs when it has to do two things at once.

Not having enough free ram can wreak havoc on the device. I've gotta say though that this has been one of the least buggy phones that I have dealt with. On average, how much free ram do you have? Anything less than about 14mb seems to send things to slow-ville for me

Ever since installing X-Button and being more careful, I try to stay around 15mb. It doesn't seem like a memory issue though. It just seems like often programs wont open, close, or generally operate correctly, sometimes leaving artifacts of itself that can't be removed all over the screen forcing a reboot. Perhaps it's just something to get used to with a Pocket PC, it's not horrible, but every so often it gets a little annoying. I was just curious if it was perhaps caused by software I had installed, or if it was just normal to have issues every so often.
I too am finding it does that. Especially when moving from Portrait to landscape mode. Some times the old portrait screen will lock up and over lay the landscape screen. I just go in and stop some running programs.
But I've discovered an issue I can't seem to easily fix. Twice now the phone has shut off completely. Both times I have been asleep when this happened so I can't say what causes it. I don't have it set to go to sleep (at least I don't think so!) so I don't know what the issue is. Today I went to sleep about 6 hours and when I woke phone was completely off. Had to do a soft reset to start it. Power button wouldn't work at all. Then when it did finally come up it showed no new text or no new voice mail messages. I had new messages on both that were delivered after I fell asleep. Any ideas? Suggestions? I do have the slider/launcher program but neither were running when I went to bed today. The only app I kept running was call firewall. All others were closed out in running programs before I went to bed. Currently my memory is Storage free 29.39MB and Program free 21.12MB. At 1pm my battery was 70% and it is currently at 40%.
I have found that that problem happens only when blue tooth is on. I have started making sure that the bluetooth is off when not in use.

Anyone run into the phone not answering the call when you hit the answer button or wnaswer on screen? Any fixes or ideas?
yep... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370483
Tried to get started with narrowing down which app causes it but the thread fizzled. I ended up flashing to a newer DCD release and then only installed the bare bones apps I needed to get by and it's working fine so far.
Me too

I have been having the similar problems. I can answer if I hold the button down a really long time or hold the slide at the end until the screen changes to the phone app. Usually I get a missed call though. I initially thought it may have been S2U2 or S2UP but after using and uninstalling both no resolution. I got no fixes or ideas as of yet, just uninstalling apps and seeing how it responds. On a positive note taking off all these apps has increased my standby memory considerably
So what you guys are saying is that out of nowhere your phones won't answer a call?
Or did you like flash a ROM and then wasn't able to pick up a call?
One thing that helped me was to change all ringtones to WMA on DCD's ROM's because MP3's dont seem to play all the time for a weird reason.
Also I changed the settings on my phone. In the the EPST I changed a setting in the Modem menu. I changed the Slot Cycle Index to "0" instead of "2" and it answers the calls faster.
These are just some ideas as I really dont know what issues you are having.
I just posted a long winded update to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370483
Ultimate fix for me (experiencing non-answerable calls) was a hard reset. I'm blaming the AdvancedConfig tool or some setting it exposed to me to tweak.
i've had the same thing happen in the past so i would be interested if this gets figured out. i never figured out what it was, but since I back up nightly w/ sprite backup, i just restored the most recent registry backup and it took care of the problem both times it happened.
same happened to me - i couldnt answer a single call and had to call back whoever rang me up.
REALLY annoying.
i repaired it very easily, however.
i um...accidentally.. dropped my phone off a roof and the new one answers calls very well!
this also solved all the other problems i had with my earlier phone.
go figure!
I am having the same problem...hit the green talk button or the answer button and nothing happens. I have to call everyone back...so what I am hearing is that it is the advance config program that is causing it and a hard reset is the only option to fix it?
that appears to be the case - at least in my experience.
I'm running CyanogenMod-4.0.4 on a rooted G1 on the Orange Switzerland network. Usually, everything is great...I love this phone and the CM stuff is awesome. But I've recently been having some trouble with calls not reaching my phone.
I noticed the problem for the first time yesterday, but can't be sure it hasn't been going on for a while now. If someone tries to call me, the call either gets sent straight to voicemail, or sometimes, it just keeps trying to connect and finally fails. Then again, some of the calls get through just fine. The phone itself had good 3G reception throughout the observed problems, and SMS and data traffic was working perfectly. Calls from my phone to others also worked all the time.
If I reboot the phone, the next call goes through without trouble, and I've also not had an established call losing connection so far.
Is anyone else observing similar trouble? Or do you think the problem sounds more like something on my providers end?
EDIT: Just something else I just remembered, no idea if it might be related: I also noticed an abnormally high battery drain today. Usually, once the phone is fully charged, the battery will last for a bit more than two days before it starts complaining. Today, about six hours after removing it from the charger, it was showing 20% charge. I recharged it from there, and it's been holding normally since then.
Not sure about the phone calls issue, but for battery life, have a look at Settings->About Phone->Battery Usage and see if anything is abnormally high.

Looks about normal to me.
Cell standby : 42%
Phone idle: 39 %
Voice calls: 10%
Display: 5%
And a bunch of small stuff.
Same problem today, have seen this on my stock G1, was the reason I did the rooting and went to JF, and now to Cyanogen.
I already re-installed Radio and HSPL, still same. Probably need today to wipe and reinstall ROM ?!
I'll keep you posted.

Do you have the Overclock Widget running on your computer ???
In the process of screwing around, I uninstalled the Overclock Widget, but also reinstalled ROM and Radio. Now everything seems to work again. So for the moment I guess the overclocker was the root cause. Will do some more testing.

Still having problems... Get voicemail if I call my phone. After reboot, phones answers again. Probably will wipe and reinstall tomorrow.

Same problem here.
I am having the same issues also. No appearant pattern to it though. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. My girlfriend has called me four times in a row, some of the times, it went straight to voice mail, othertimes it will ring (on her end) then go to voicemail. My phone doesn't even show missed calls. Text messages work fine.

yeah i this happened to me yesterday. my phone would only ring 1 ring and then it would say missed call. since there are a bunch of people it seems like it could be a network issue and not the phone/rom.
I tried all kinds of stuff, but yesterday I figured out the following:
3G enabled and also connected to network via UMTS : Call goes to voicemail and I get a connection error dialing out.
Now switch settings to: Use only 2G. Effect: All calls (incoming and outgoing) perfect.
Very wired. So i guess it is a network problem. Can you guys try this as well?
I'm having similar issues.
Whenever I'm in an area that has HSDPA (3.5G) coverage, and my phone is constantly using data, the caller won't get connected (won't ring on his end nor on my end, and caller won't be forwarded to voicemail). I also have issues calling people, I would have to try calling the person like 5 or 6 times to actually make a call, I would simply not get connected, not even a ring.
If I'm in an area with normal 3G coverage (384kbps max DL speed), even if I'm using data, call WILL come through and I can make calls without problems.
On 2G, with constant data usage, phone calls would get forwarded to my voicemail automatically, so no unreported missed calls.
I'm not sure if this issue is specific to my network, but I tried calling my operator's customer support and they asked me to take my phone to its authorized dealer. I've been running cyanogens ROMs for a long time, and I'm still having those issues.
I know someone who has the hero running on the same network I'm using and is reporting similar problems.
I have seen it do this on stock, JF, the dudes, cyanogen, and now Dwang ROMS!
I have youmail setup to email me with missed calls, and every 10 or so calls will go straight to voice mail or I'll get a missed call on youmail, but not my phone never registers it....
I had called Tmobile Customer service like 6 months ago, even before there was a youmail App, (they didn't know what youmail was).....told me it was a youmail problem....
I am pretty sure its not a youmail problem, but I have no idea what in the heck it is..
Its happened once or twice (that Im aware of). Running the modded stock from here.
Also my notorious problem with MMS.
Not sure what it is. My real curiosity is if this happens on Moto Cliq and Droid. Really curious if these weirdo issues are HTC...G1...or android based.
A similar issue has been reported to google, please star this so it gets some attention by android developers. Missing calls and not get notified about them is a big issue for me.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4377
.
I have a tmobile sidekick lx and it is doing the same thing. Does anyone know anything about that at all?
I have searched for some hours now without finding an answer anywhere so i thought i might try here since there are obviously alot ppl here with far more knowledge about android than me :b
Whenever i receive a notification for either an sms or a mail through the Gmail app unless i remove it the phone wont go to sleep, the screen stays off but it drains battery like crazy.
I loose about 2% battery overnight if nothing happens, but if i receive a sms or mail during the night it has dropped about 50% by the time i wake up.
Is there any way to fix this or will i have to turn off sync?
I might have solved the sms drain by disabling the notifications for the stock sms app and using the Go Sms Pro instead.
It seems to work but i havent really tried it long enough to make a conclusion.
Is it an issue with android or some specific roms, or maybe even the phone itself?
Cause i´ve seen others post about the same problem but no one seems to find a solution.
I´m using Swedish Spring RLS5 atm but i really dont think its rom specific.
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction
Well i dont know if your rom is overcloked,many times by receving a sms or a phone call may trigger some battery drain on your device,some oc kernels are a bit unstable
Tips ,well you could get a app manager with auto.kill even if youre device is sleep mode and you get a notification it will kill the process,use launcher pro,many launcher's out there, the way wich they interact with the system it self may cause baterry drain, so take these tips in mind,try and use other roms and see what happens
So, I've tried all the roms for exynos U/C variants
Recently I noticed I was getting the same average battery life in almost all roms, i tried different kernels/modems etc and noticed it didn't really matter what settings I used I was getting average 8-10 hours daily use. So I replaced battery seeings as its over 2 years old. No difference. So I went back to a rom I really liked the out of box feel "dreamUX"
What I noticed was really astounding.
For example
Same simple setup with greenfied apps, doze otg etc
Nothing major (no xposed etc) just essential apps like maps, SwiftKey, chrome, Gmail etc... On other roms over night I would lose 10-20% battery.
Recently I reinstalled dreamUX with the same setup as always...
On the first night I went to sleep with 65%battery when I woke 5 hours later I was still on 65% battery.... It was amazing to be able to finally get decent standby idle time.
So my question is why?
What does dreamUX do differently?
Currently I can't use it as a daily because this silly bug, there is no way I can find how to enter voicemail number setting and constantly have this new voicemail notification that drives me crazy. I can't even call voicemail because no number is defined..... Anyone able to help understand this issue?
to call voicemail hold the 1 key in the dialer or call your own number from your phone. Or call the number it says in the notification.

thats just the issue. the notification says "VOICE MAIL NUMBER NOT DEFINED" and there is no way to "DEFINE IT" there is no area inside the setup or anywhere in settings to define the number.
i can physically call the phone number and check my voicemail but it doesnt remove the notification.
i found 1 work around but i cant get it to work on dreamUX was with a mod on xposed. "disable persistent notifications".
=/
anyone else know a fix or how to get to the setting for this in dreamUX?
I debloated my stock 6.0.1 rom recently because I had weird drains overnight. Now it's ok, doesn't seem to loose anything at all over a few hours of standby (during night I recharge it usually).
So yeah, uninstalling bloatware/freeze/greenify would help.
Still SOT is very poor. Got worse with each update. Now I think I get less than 3 hours despite new battery and debloated rom.
How much SOT do you get ?
Last time I checked 3 hours 40 minutes, yesterday was 3 hours 12 minutes.
I just need to figure out how to fix this voicemail bug
my theory
I noticed the same with a lineageOS rom (one that I couldn't use daily)
I looked into the possible factors and concluded it must have been the default DPI setting, which was lowered to 414 (rather than the default 520/560)
I'm not quite sure how DPI settings are any different than screen resolution (do the apps only rescale in size with DPI?) but that was the only internal difference I noticed
