Odd Problem: Cannot Hang Up Calls or Text - EVO 4G General

So when I try to call a phone number...there is a long delay before the first ring occurs. The phone stopped vibrating like it normally does when a call connects too. In addition to this, I cannot hang up the phone call. Even after the other end hangs up it still shows the call in progress.
This started randomly occurring! I never changed my ROM or updated anything. Help!
Also in the past, I've tried to send SMS and it keeps trying to send and eventually fails. I just have to keep retrying to eventually get it to work. It happened sporadically but lately it happens almost everyday. Is this simply network congestion? I'm in the LA area.
Running evodeck

I think I fixed my phone issue. Just called myself from another phone and it appears to have fixed itself. Still having text messages get stuck though.
Edit: Nevermind...when I try to text and it gets stuck...it breaks my phone calls again.

First take it off smartass governer my phone had trouble with it secondly I had a problem similar to yours with the proximity sensor in the development section under evodeck 1.3b I posted another sensors.supersonic.so file that worked for me.
Don't know if that will help your problems also I posted the link to stop wake lock in there is do that too.

I'm still on evodeck 1.2 CPU settings are default to evodeck... ONDEMAND ... min 245 max 998
Just cleared my dvalik and cache and I guess it works again...shrug. Not sure if it's coincidence that the network is "fixed" or what. Lots of my friends say though that they get stuck texts all the time if they simultaneously send a text when they receive one.

Problems ringing people back

This seems to happen quite often, I ring one of my friends and he doesnt answer (i hang up when it hits voicemail) .. because hes sometimes left his phone in another room etc.. i ring back but it just hangs up straight away. Says dialing for a split second then hangs up. Ive tried ringing back for a good while, its not a delay on o2 as it stays the same till i soft reset.
Any ideas?.. im using the latest rom from o2
I don't know what causes it, but I think what you've described happens to me every now and again. Not very often, but by coincidence it happened yesterday.
You try and make a call and it immediately plays the hangup sound and the call is aborted. A soft reset cleared the problem for me and always has in the past. I would be very interested to find out the cause.

I get exactly the same problem quite frequently, i found the only way around, other than a reboot, was to manually dial the number rather than use the speeddial or phone book,
O2 have really got to do some debugging of the firmware on these things, At the moment i certainly wont be keeping it once my 12 months contract is up in 4 months time

Phone application (radio?) not responding!

Hi,
On my XDAII (1.72) I sometimes experience a not responding phone/SMS application or radio stack.
People trying to call me are instantly redirected to the voicemail, and if I try to make eiter a call or send a text message, respectively the phone application is stalling or the SMS 'Send' button stays in the 'pressed' state.
Soft-resetting the phone or toggling the 'turn off radio' function re-establishes the radio.
Does anyone knows of a solution?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated and possibly rewarded with a 6-pack Heineken beer
weird, mines just done the same thing. I sent an sms and nothing. I was then taken to the phone screen and it said something like invalid sim something.
I'm wondering if the sim card is not locked in place. I was fiddling around with mine yesterday and maybe forgot to lock the sim card in place.
Just a thought but maybe worth checking :wink:
what radio version do you have ? I recently have the problem that when people call me, the ringtone goes for about 2 seconds, then restarts, etc.
Meanwhile I can do nothing ( green button don't work) . When the caller hangs up my phone returns to the normal state.
I use radio 1.18. Thinking of downgrading to 1.17 which people say is more stable.

Hello folks,
I have the same problem now for a week... It's driving me crazy... At
some point in time during the night or the day my Qtek2020 gets weird.
The result is that people trying to call me can't connect but to viocemail,
and I can't receive SMS. The only way I can see that I am having this
problem is that whenever I try to send a SMS I get a message "your SMS
cannot be sent", and if I try to make a call, the phone seems to dial out
normally the first second, but then the DIAL-button (which is color-less)
becomes green again...
Please, if someone knows what's wrong or if someone had the same
problem and solved without having to default the whole thing, please
let me know what is the solution.. It is really annoying, so I now have
to randomly reset my phone throughout the day.
PS: my battery is now on 4% so I have to look for my charger, and
after that I can supply with info about radio-version etc. I am running
WM2003 by the way, and I've had no problems like this before, this
unit has been working fine until now. I guess it's a sw-bug? And I
am also wondering if this problem occurs whenever I pass a place
with low signal.. hmm, it's so annoying..
Thanks for any help!

I've been having problems similar to the OP for 2-3 weeks now (found this thread in a search before posting). It's damned annoying, as it means you can't really trust your phone - am I meant to reset every morning, or more frequently? It seems an intermittent problem, in so far as I've been receiving and making calls as normal, and then you someone asks 'did you get my text?'. Gritting teeth, you call the phone from a landline to find that calls are going straight to voicemail. After a soft reset all missing texts are received immediately, and calls can again be received.
When in this state other PDA functions seem to work as normal. However, I suspect that the power display is "suspended" too. On performing a soft reset after experiencing this problem today, I immediately got "your battery is extremely low", whereas before the reset I recall it was around 50% (vBar image). As others have stated, one clue that not all is well is that sent texts do not get a "Message sent" confirmation.
I've been racking my brains as to what's changed recently on my PDA. For family reasons I've been making a lot more calls than usual, but I also added TomTom Navigator 5 a couple of months ago, and so have started intermittently using BT. But I don't use Sat Nav that frequently, and this problem seems more prevalent.
I'm conscious that I don't have latest and greatest ROM, etc, but am vary about attempting upgrades without strong reasons.
Has anyone seen and solved this issue?
Have you tried cleaning the contacts on the sim card? After a while dust and general wear and tear can mess them up. Also as it's obviously(?) a phone problem it might be beneficial to call your service provider for a new sim card.
That's what I had to do last week. Wish you the best anyway.
It can't have anything to with the sim card as I'm having this problem with a brand new sim card.

sms with delay

Hi there, due to the fact that the search option doesn't work with less then 4 characters, i can't search for "sms".
But here's my real problem:
I've flashed different roms into my mda vario, after unlocking it. First the Molski.biz rom, then the last original t-mobile rom, but it was toooo slow, i've imediatly deleted it, en flashed the mr clean rom.
But in all roms i have some delay in recieving sms-messages.
Half the time they appear directly after they were sent by my friends, but sometimes i get them after a few hours. for example: it was sent at 15:00, and i received it at 17:30.
And sometimes i don't get any sms-messages, and after an soft-reset, i get 10 at one time, all delayed.
does anyone know what to do about it? or what causes it?
Regards,
Twan
i sometimes get this too though not often its usually when my phone loses signal and when it comes back into signal it wont recevie txt messages until i soft reset or send another txt out then ill get like 4 all at once lol.
Wizard isnt the best phone for txtin i must say as i send a good 1,000 txts a month and so far its poor.
Sounds like a network issue to me...
The network isn't registering the phone or something similar. For SMS the towers "push" the messages to the phone. Queuing them when they don't detect the phone on the network. If the phone is on the network and not getting the messages until it is reset and forced to re-acquire its signal than it is a network problem.
I've seen this problem on a few networks regardless of phone make and model.
I would agree with the above, its a provider issue not a phone issue.
I have a debate with Orange about 10 years ago about not getting text messeges when I loose and then regain service. I was told that when a text is sent to a phone that is off or lost a signal the message is stored until a set time has passed and then delivery is retried, thus getting all the messages at once. The way 'around' this is the disconnect the phone from the network and re-connect. This forces a scan of the message queues and again you will get all messages in one go.
I would assume going in to Flight Mode and back will do the same thing as a soft boot, but I have not tested this.
Okay,
so i could suggest it's not quitte an rom- or wizzard-issue, but a network-issue.
I also think going to flightmode and back will solve the problem. So we will hear from you if that's a solution?
I'm busy reflashing a new rom into my wizzard.

I would hope that as you seeing the problem that you could test this. I get all my texts on time (luckely) so I can't help you I am afraid, I can just share my thoughts.
Let us know how you get on.

I've tried, but now there's nobody who has sent me an sms
ghehe, i'll wait....
but i do think it will work.
i'll keep you posted
This is happening to me all of a sudden and its not a network issue. I have 4 phones on my account and i texted between all of them and only my phone won't get the messages UNLESS I reboot my phone or use smartskey to close a window.
Here is the strange part, when a text message is sent to my phone, the screen turns on, but doesn't show the message pop.
Is smartskey blocking it?
Also, closing a window by clicking on the X also kicks the message to come through

Can't make or receive calls!

This is quite annoying. Starting some time last night, I have been having a hell of a time making any kind of call.
If I make a call out, I hit send, it sits for 3 or 4 seconds, then says call ended. I called my own phone and it rang 2 times and went to voicemail.
Throughout this time I've had no problem receiving texts (not sure about sending them).
Anyone ever have this problem? I did a hard reset of it earlier today and added the touch-it 2.3 rom, but that hasn't changed anything.
Hmm. I hard reset a few times, I flashed back to the original tmobile ruu...still nothing. Once in a while after a reset I can make 1 call, or receive 1 call (that happened only once), but after that...nothinng. Looks like I gotta bring it in and get it swapped out or something.
Weird. I decided to try calling my gf while I was on my way over to her place, and it worked fine, and has been working fine since. This is on the original t-mobile RUU. I'm flashing it back to touch-it now, and I'll see if it keeps working.
I was on the phone for like half an hour with their tech support and we got nowhere, so this is weird.
i have the same problem, but not always.
just sometimes..
this time i try to re-search network..
usually it works, but i dont understand, why does it do this..
please help us

[Q] Random Lockups after Voicemail fix

So I have been having issues with my voice mail over the past week. Sometimes it would work sometimes it would tell me I didn't have a mailbox on the server.
Today I called t-mobile and they went through all their steps to fix it. My voice mail started working again but now anytime I have any notification icon pop-up (text message, email, missed call) my phone lags really bad and about every minute does some sort of weird half reboot. Screen goes black, has to reload lock screen and all widgets just like when the phone first boots. I was wondering if anyone else had seen or heard of anything like this.
I am on stock JI6 firmware, stock kernel, with the four lock-screen mod, and the circular battery mod. I have not had a problem with either mod for the three weeks I have been running them. T-Mobile rep told me to factory reset my phone which worked for about 10 minutes then gave me the same problem again.
Any help would be much appreciated, I don't really want to go through the process of flashing with odin and setting up my phone another time.
