[Q] Unable to make call to one specific number - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I am not able to make call to one specific number, to my wife's mobile. I can make calls to a lot of other numbers and also she can receive calls from a lot of people also. When she calls to me, no problem, works perfect.
I am right now using CM9-Defy-19032012 from Epyslon3, but I got the same issue using CM7.2 nightly (a few of them). No problem with Motoblur Android 2.2.
Thanks for any help.

Maybe you realy did it, but in case not, check your wife's phone blacklist, sometimes happen that in misterious ways when any person try to answer a call, by mistake touch "deny" or something similar then the phone automatically put that number in the blacklist.
This happened to me between my wife's phone and mine sometime ago.
Hope that helps

You were totally right. I was in her blacklist (settings->call settings -> blacklist). Now it is working again. You saved my marriage.
Thanks a lot.

issue calling one particular number??

I'm having a strange issue with my nexus one. This started a few days ago. I can not call my brother's cell phone with it. It will ring once and than I hear a beep and it just closes the phone app. I have not had this problem with any other phone number and he can call me fine. Has anyone else seen this issue?
I'm on t-mobile and my phone is not rooted also.
Thanks,
Dave

to rule out other possibilites have you tried to call him from a different cell phone or land line?
I can call him fine from other cell phones and from land lines. It even works if I call him on my nexus one using google voice. I still haven't tried switching my sim card back to my g1 to see if that allows me to call him.
to narrow it down, delete him from the phonebook and try again.
maybe his entry is corrupt and the dialler crashes whe trying to display the incall info.
Tried that as well. I deleted him, called the number without saving it and got the same result.
Going one step further (though I would swap and test with your g1 first if you can) wipe the phone and try again.
Try:
Settings>call settings>additional settings>caller id>network default.
It looks like your brown has some sort of blocked number rejector on his phone.
Update: I fixed it. I finally was home today to play with both phones and somehow I was in the block list on his G1. He claims he didn't even know how he did that. Is there a shortcut or anything that he could have hit by accident or in his pocket?

[Q] AT&T ATRIX Rogers issues

Is there some way to add in a fixes while using the AT&T Atrix on Rogers for new voice mail icon always on, sms having the wrong time and pay phone displayed for some incoming calls? I had none of these issues on my nexus, both cm and stock. Thanks.
*UPDATE*
After trying my sim in several different phones and not being able to recreate the constant new voicemail displayed I tried swapping out my sim for a newer one and the icon seems to be gone for now. I also asked the rogers rep to exclude "name display" for the third time and I hope it finally works.
The voicemail icon is not a problem for me. SMS Time Fix fixes the time stamp issue and calling rogers and getting them to exclude the "name display" option on your call display fixes the payphone problem.

exact same for me
I can't seem to get rid of the new voice mail, I put my wifes sim in(rogers) reflashed ect... always comes back soon as I put my sim in.
I had the vm issue on my galaxy vibrant before. Just call your no, leave a vm message. Then check your vm and listen to it and erase it. That fixed it for me

Yeah I've tried that... I even tried that putting my sim into my nexus(the nexus didn't show an icon but I did it anyways).
The VM issue is a Rogers problem, one that I had on my old G1 too. You have to call them and go through all their useless troubleshooting. None of it works of course, so in the end I had to have my VM account removed and re set up and that fixed it.

yeah just seems weird, my nexus doesn't do any of these weird bugs. I really hope one of the scripters can fix these issues. I'm using gingerblur now, I wonder if some settings and stuff can be imported from CM or similar.
Hey guys, there is a known issue. Call in and ask that the CSRs please "exclude name display" from your account. This will resolve the incoming caller ID issue. A reboot shouldn't be required but wouldn't hurt.
For voicemail, please leave a voicemail and then check it. Either delete or save the message by hitting 7 or 9, and then hit # after to back out of the menus before ending the call. Too soon and the voicemail waiting indicator would stay. It irritates the heck out of me but you don't have to put up with it. It will go away if you do this.
Sometimes you may need to add/remove voicemail from your account. A CSR will do this and TSRs may be empowered to make this account change as long as it pertains to troubleshooting.. not too sure.
Any data issues too, get the TSR dept to reset the network connection from their end. They'll have you power cycle and it will fix data issues. My bud had a problem but I patched it up for him via Chat Support.
I'm on Rogers too and my Atrix is working flawlessly

I wouldn't call it flawless, but yeah once you have the proper apn's it works fine call wise and data wise. It's just some little things that need to be ironed out. Hopefully once the Atrix goes global we'll see that disapear.

Name display and if you use network time(or use sms time fix) your sms is way out. The network time is really useful for me as I travel a lot. The name display is also useful for knowing who someone is while I'm not at home so I don't pay long distance. The new voicemail thing is annoying and seems weird that it doesn't do it on my nexus, tilt or e71.
*UPDATE*
After trying my sim in several different phones and not being able to recreate the constant new voicemail displayed I tried swapping out my sim for a newer one and the icon seems to be gone for now.

[Q] Phone Beeping Tone During Calls

Greetings Everyone,
I've had this issue with my S4 since I got it. During every phone call, at random times, it sounds like someone is hitting a button on their phone causing an annoying tone beep, like someone is pressing the 4 button. My phone is always locked during the phone call and I've asked if the other person could have hit the key which they always say no. This is HIGHLY annoying as it happens during every call. Does anyone have any suggestions on what could be the cause of this?
Thanks in advance!

maybe it is your alerts? Did you try going to Settings of the dialer, and switching off "minute minder" and "alert during calls" under "call alerts" menu?

Really strange then, never heard of this. Maybe you are calling a landline, and two people pick up on the other end, and one of them accientally hits some keys before hanging up.
I am out of guesses. :/

Are you using Google voice or is someone you're calling using Google voice? When I made calls using Google voice I would experience this exact behavior... a random touch tone beep every so often...

I always thought it was a problem with the other persons service, but I was on the phone with HP tech support for work and I was on speakerphone with the phone laying on the desk and the guy kept asking me if I was pressing the dial tone buttons. That's when I was certain it's a problem with something on AT&T. Or just a weird problem that both my S3 and S4 have.
Which dialer are you using? I also had this same issue on my Galaxy Nexus. Haven't had the issue on the S4 yet

I am completely stock just rooted.
So glad to hear I'm not the only one having the issue. I'm calling AT&T today to see what they say. Maybe it's just a jacked up phone. I'll keep you guys posted on what they say.
I have the same characteristic on my HTC One, so it's not unique to the S4. For the moment, I'm thinking it's just a tone corresponding to notifications, but I'll be following the thread with interest. Please report your finding.
ETA: Won't the joke be on all of us if we find out its the NSA listening in on our conversations?
I have the same issue with the key tones. I hear them randomly and it is so annoying. It all started when I got a warranty replacement Galaxy S3. I thought because the S3 might be a refurb. that is why it was doing this key tones. So I signed a contract and got the Galaxy S4 and the problem did not end. I had EIGHT different S4's, SIX different sim cards, did many hard resets, made two different google accounts, tried another phone, changed my phone number, and changed my account with ATT. IT STILL DOES THE NOISE!!!!! HELP ME PLEASE!!! SOMEONE!!!
Interesting... I had the exact same thing with my Sprint Galaxy S3. I hadn't pressed keys on my end, and the person on the other end (different people) always swore they hadn't pressed anything.
I haven't noticed it (yet) on my AT&T S4, but it is definitely not specific to AT&T. My S3 wasn't even rooted - completely stock. Maybe something in the more recent updates from Samsung that is going out to all the carriers?
Edit: Scratch my thought about Samsung, I see someone above mentioned the HTC One.
AT&T sent me out a HTC One to try on weds and the first convo I had with someone the key tones were there. The guy at AT&T thought it might have been my 4G LTE signal and he made my phone just 3G because he thought it was the common feature with all the phones but even with just the 3G it still does it. Im at a lost! Every time I hear the key tones I want to throw the phone against the nearest wall.
Have it on my S3, on Straight Talk AT&T sim
I've been searching and searching for an answer for this. I've had my phone since February, and this beeping only started in the past couple of months. Someone suggested it was the minute minder, but that is turned off on my phone. I've exhausted all options anyone has posted, and I guess I just have to deal with it. I'm starting to think it's the NSA thing...
By the way, my friend has heard the beeps on their end, as well but don't hear it on calls with other people so it doesn't seem to be their iPhone. Imagine that...still doesn't make me want one!
Notification beeps?

Looks like it might have something to do with "DTMF" Touch tones. In a google search, I am running across many people talking about this issue and addressing it as DTMF but haven't found a solution. Many search hits!
If anybody else wants to try and run it down further, search for DTMF tones during call or similar.

I have been searching this everywhere. I am starting to think you are right. I went back as far as 2009 though. Initially it was reported with VOIP phones. So I wonder if on the back end companies are beginning to integrate technologies.
Regardless it's annoying! I'm so glad I'm not the only one!
Similar problem, with details.
I've been having a similar issue with key tone sounds during calls as well. I'm with PureTalk USA and have been fine for over a year now, then this started happening. The problem for me began with getting a new call forwarding number because my voicemail began having issues. I noticed I was hearing intermittent sounds like a key being dialed during calls. I checked my settings, nothing indicated the phone had any kind of minute minder active. Because the beeping is irregular that wouldn't make sense anyway. During a call last night, for example, I must have heard it more than 30 times in an hour, many of those times in clusters of 4-7 in the space of only 5 minutes. This happens with incoming and outgoing calls, to any carrier, to even calls to PureTalk customer service.
The other thing I wanted to add was that this was not just with one phone. My regular handset is the unlocked Google Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I took out the sim and put it into my old Nokia GoPhone, and the problem persisted. The Nokia is not a smart phone, and the setting have never been tampered with, and the last time I'd used that phone I had never had this issue.
PureTalk has done little to resolve this matter, stating that the problem is with the handset settings, even though I've explained that I've had this error with my smart phone and with a dumb phone, but they insist the issue is on my end. Since going to their tech support my data has stopped working as well, which was a consequence of their doing an account reset to attempt to resolve my problem. They again tell me this is an issue with my handset and not on their end, despite the account reset changing nothing on my phone. Other tech support ideas such as sending a new sim card and wiping my phone didn't help, not that it would have since the error is on multiple phones, through two sim cards.
Going to switch carriers, thinking TMobile. If PureTalk is convinced my issue is in my handset and continues closing the ticket I don't see that this will ever be resolved.

Well, if it is in fact the NSA eavesdropping on our conversations, then color me disappointed. You think they'd do a better job of covering their tracks. No sense in covert surveillance if you're gonna be announcing it every few minutes with an audible tone.

[Q] help! has my phone been hacked/tracked??

Hey everyone, this is my first post and I really hope someone can help...
So the weirdest thing happened few hours ago. I was working and when I checked my phone I had 2 missed calls, both unsaved numbers. So I called the first number and this weird person kept asking me if I could talk. I kept asking who is on the line but the other person was just asking me the same thing over and over again. They spoke my language (not English) but with a thick accent so I knew they were foreign. I hung up and called the other number and it was my friend, whose number I have it memorized but it was also showing as unsaved number in my call log. She told me that she hasn`t tried calling me earlier, even though her number was showing as a missed call.
After that I spoke with my wife and the connection was bad, crackling and not very clear (this hasn't happened before). Then, I tried to write an SMS but I struggled as the letters seemed not aligned (also never happened before). The next time I removed it from my pocket, the flashlight was on. So I restarted it and checked my call log again. Those two missed call numbers? They were now gone from the call log. Also, it seems my battery drained much quicker after that, though I don't know if that's my mind playing tricks on me now.
It's been a loooooong day and I really didn't need this to happen now.
I really hope someone can help.
Tnx

Download and anti virus and do a complete scan
Also check if any application is installed on your device about which you don't know.

I installed avg and did a complete scan. The only weird thing was Tunein Radio Pro was shown as intrusive adware (weird...), which I uninstalled. Nothing else except that.
Also, I looked at my app list and didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
I should also say that I do have a person in mind who might be interested in hacking my phone, though I cannot say they have tried. I'm just saying they have the means to do that.
Obviously I will not just drop this and forget all about it, I was wondering if there is a way for my network provider to locate the number (which I don't have since it mysteriously disappeared from my call logs) and explore it further (if yes - how?) or I am better off just doing a factory reset and will that rectify the problem?
tnx

Hey.. I wish I have smoked something...
It was very weird, it felt like Twin Peaks with the weird phone call and the problems with the phone afterwards.
Now... I should also say that I'm not one of those paranoid guys wearing aluminium hats and claiming that the government is trying to poison us all... But you can imagine how freaked out I am, since the whole thing made me create an account here so I can post this question to you guys.
I am not a phone expert (far from it) but I'm not a beginner too, so I know when something weird happens.
Any constructive idea what to do next is welcome...
PS.
I just remembered, a day before that, around 11 pm, I got a call that was a wrong number. Now, I know that a wrong number is a wrong number but the guy was mumbling like he was trying to hide his real voice. I'm wondering if that was connected in some way with what happened the next day...
I repeat, I know how this sounds. ( but I assure you I'm just a normal guy and not a weird conspiracy theorist. I'm just connecting the dots now.

yeah I get what you are saying, as I said a wrong number is a wrong number. But I am more worried with what happened after that. Do you have any explanation for the number being erased (not by me) from the call log and the weird things with the phone just after that happened? The problems I described that happened after the phone call had never happened before that...
I think you should just do a factory reset and calm down a bit

No Call Notification

Haven't had a lot of luck with questions here for the last little while, but maybe someone has an idea as to why this would happen. My wife tried to call me 6 times yesterday. Not a single call came through or registered on my S7 Edge. She said all calls immediately went through to voice mail. When she got home, she stood right beside me and tried again and again, I was not notified of the call and it went right through to voice mail.
The phone had recently been rebooted. DND was not on. All sounds were on. The phone is not rooted and no apps like Greenify or anything like that running. After her last unsuccessful call to me, standing right beside me, I called her and it went through without an issue. She then tried to call me back and it worked. A minute or so later I received notification of her 2 voice mail messages from her previous calls. It's like the phone was in an extreme deep sleep. Which is pretty annoying considering I use the phone as a phone and I need calls to come through when they are made.
I took the phone into my carrier and they gave me a new sim card to try. I didn't have any issues with the previous sim card other than the issue from time to time of the first call I place being dropped and then the second call going through without issue. The signal is not fantastic in our condo, but I've never had someone tell me they have tried to call me and simply gone to vm before, so I don't know of any time of this happening previously. My wife had never had problems calling me before at all.
Anyone know what might have caused this?
No answers to this post,. Guess no one knows. Just another bizarre Samsung issue. Had it happen again today. My wife had to send me a Whatsapp message saying she couldn't call me. She said she called over and over again. No voice mail, no nothing. Never rang on my end or registered a call at all. Phone just didn't work until I called her and then she called me back and it worked. So sick of this thing working when it feels like it. Checked signal Not great, but no better than her signal and she never has any issues. She said she would call, it would just drop. No ringing, no voice mail, no nothing. Just call and then drop sound. Over and over again. Good thing this phone is only a $1000 device. Works great.
I don't have a solution for your problem, but had a similar issue when phoning my wife. It would ring on my side, but not on her side, then goes to voicemail. 2nd or 3rd time the call would go through to her to answer. Her phone wouldn't show any of the other calls. She was with a specific service provider and I moved her over to my provider. That is when the problems started as she was ported over to my provider. In the end it was on the provider's side where the problem was. They made some changes on her number profile and she could receive all calls and not random ones. Don't know the technical side of what the provider did, but they did admit they created her "call profile" incorrectly. Perhaps it's the same with you, that there is a setup on your profile that is not correct.
Thanks for the post, but I have contacted my provider. We use the same provider. Same settings. They reset everything for my phone and I reset everything on my end too. Still no solution. She does not have the same issues. Same phone. Same provider. Just sucks when you don't know if someone is trying to call you or not and if the phone actually works or not. I just want a phone that works all the time without having to worry about it. At the end of the day, that's all this is....a phone. If people can't call, well, that's an issue. I'm currently looking for work so it's even more important now than it's ever been.
Sorry to hear that you went the route of the provider and still no resolution. Maybe someone else can give light on the subject...
