Sometimes I don't get calls. - Fascinate General

Sometimes I don't get calls. Every now and then when my wife tries to call me her call doesn't show up on my phone. I have her on a custom ringtone and was wondering if this might be the problem? Right now I am on AOKP milestone 6, but I am pretty sure this is has happened on stock gingerbread as well. Any ideas?
My wife is on fascinate running rooted stock gingerbread if that makes any difference.

When you said you don't get calls, means in your wife side she's connected? or busy?
back then i have a similar problem, if my phone idle for sometimes, when someone want to call me they can't. busy tone on my side.but i still can surf the internet. if somehow i make a call or miscall or do an sms (my point is you make an outgoing connection), after that i can received incoming calls for some times and text to. let say that you have to trick the signal, OR the signal stuck in 3g mode (my assumption).
or maybe you can ask the provider . i believe its not the rom problem

what is your radio version? if you never updated past ED05 it that may be where the problem lies.

EH03...this hasn't really happened in a while and I am thinking it might have been something to do with Google Voice. I disconnected G-voice and am trying carrier vm instead to see if that solves it.

call waiting, voicemail, dropped calls

Has anyone else around here experienced a a bug where trying to use call waiting drops both calls? I've seen people mention it else where but never any solution.
Incoming voicemails also seem to cause the current call to drop.
The phone has been replaced a few times and no one at Sprint is any help.
any ideas?
I have been running into that problem since I had my og evo so I always just figured it was a sense problem I don't notice it much on cm but then again I don't use the phone part of my phone much at all

I don't know if you are using a Bluetooth,but mine does that if I'm using a Bluetooth and try to answer from the Bluetooth.I finally discovered if I use the phone to answer it never happens.I was getting really frustrated till I figured this out.

Nexus S 4G missing incoming calls!

I have a NS4G, and I seem to be missing a lot of incoming calls. The phone doesn't ring/vibrate at all, and shows no indication of a call or a missed call. The only way I know somebody tried to call is I end up with voicemails, or people tell me that they tried calling and didn't get through.
This seems to happen even when I have a decent signal and when I can make outgoing calls just fine and even send/receive text messages. I don't think it's simply a coverage issue, because the phone is never really searching for a signal.
This has happened for certain on CM7 and Deck. I'm not sure about the stock ROM. In fact, I'm thinking of reverting back to stock just to test. If it does happen on stock, then I'm wondering if it's just something physically bad with the phone.
I have also updated my profile and PRL.
Has anybody else experienced anything similar? I don't seem to drop calls or have sporadic signal strength or anything like that.
Yes, i've noticed the same thing. Do you have a google voice integrated account? I'm wondering if that might be the common factor.
I've had to go and make sure that the GV app logs missed calls in case this happens.
Are you guys on the new radio?

Good point, I haven't noticed this since I updated the radio and to 2.3.5 stock, so it might have been fixed. I'll keep an eye out if it continues.
I am on the new radio. In fact, I seem to have the problem on both radios.
I am on Google Voice, by the way, and I have my cell number forward to my GV number for missed calls.
The odd thing is I don't seem to always get a missed-call notification; only one for voicemail. Then, in logging on to my GV account in the browser, it doesn't show a missed call. However, when it is working properly, and I dial my cell from a different phone, if I ignore it then I DO get a missed-call notification.
One other possible factor is I'm using an Airave at home, which is where I've noticed the problem most of the time. I'm not positive if I have experienced it outside of the home. I'll have to pay better attention.

I bet it is google voice... I really hate how it takes over my sms too.. I use it for voicemail and that's it.

I'm thinking it probably is GV too, but I wouldn't want to give up my SMS'ing from chrome extension.
You can turn it off so it doesn't take over SMS if you want and just lets you use the stock app all the time.
I don't have GV using SMS right now. Perhaps I'll disable the forwarding temporarily to see if that solves it.

If your on the new radio and using an airave you may miss calls if not connected to wifi. Im having that problem on the new radio. Ill have full bars but if i call my phone it goes straight to voicemail with no notification at all.

It happens when I'm on wifi too, unfortunately.
I was about to just disable GV, but then realized the NS4G doesn't get the regular Sprint Visual Voicemail app! Now what do I do??

You can use google voice for only voicemail. I have that setup and it works great. it even transcribes the voicemails to text
Unfortunately, I'm missing some calls using that setup. :-(
tmobile nexus s with gv deactivated
I have a T-Mobile nexus s on 2.3.4 stock, I'm missing a lot of calls and so is my wife, I've deactivated TV but it didn't change anything
Wondering if anybody else out there is encountering this! Trying to figure out whether or not it's a hardware issue.
I have ns4g and a use GV and when somebody calls my number, GV rings my nexus and my other phone with verizon, so I can say that the problem is not GV, most of the times only rings my other phone and the nexus nothing, the problem is the phone with a very weak radios, wifi/3g, and the poor service of sprint and is getting worst and worst.
Im having same problem on T-Mobile Nexus S but only when I'm on 3G .

I've had this happen to me on the Stock rom, and Deck, and I don't use GV at all for anything. Happens when the phone is sleeping usually, if it's lit up, the call won't get missed. I've really not spent the time to research it as I don't use the phone much anyway.
I also noticed problems with incoming and outgoing texts being either delayed or not sent at all. I rigged up a little test.
I scheduled a text message to be sent to my phone every minute with the current time in the message. Then I would just keep an eye/ear out on my phone while it sat on my desk. For the majority of the time, I would get the alert every minute, but sometimes there would be nothing for five or more minutes. After this outage, it seemed like all of the incoming messages would be delivered at once.
During that outage, though, it seemed like that was when the phone calls had trouble getting through. I guess it makes sense that there would be a connection between the two.
I had the same problem. I even had people tell me that they got a recording saying the call couldn't be completed. I was even testing the other day and no calls I made to the phone were connection, going straight to voice mail.
I decided to disable google voice and my issues went away, as well as all the delayed SMS and failed sending SMS problems I was having.

Phone randomly won't make calls

Lately my phone is randomly not receiving calls and it won't let me make calls either. What will happen is I'll make a call and I'll hear a beep giving me directions on how to make a collect call.
Anyone know what could be going on?
I'm running Bonsai 4.1.3, but I've been using this flash for a couple months.

See my last post. Thought maybe just in case you're using that feature, one remote possibility.
Thanks for the tip Droid Apprentice, but there's nothing listed for blocked calls on my account. How likely is it that it's related to a ROM?
Do you have an Airave? If so reset it. Sprint screwed them up a week or so back. You may have a tower down in your area.

[Q] Unable to make calls?

I've been using my Nexus 4 as a phone by using Groove IP until I got my Straight Talk SIM. Now that I have the SIM, the native phone app won't work right. The first call will allow me to hear the other person, but they can't hear me. Every call after that, I can't hear them, and they still can't hear me, and unless I reboot, every other call is like that. Here is a logcat of the first call, and the second call. Groove IP still works. Any ideas on how I could fix this? Running bootloader locked stock rom.
I had a problem where I couldn't hear other people, and they couldn't hear me, and I could not for the life of me find out how to fix it. I was running rooted stock, it had been working fine, and then just one day this problem popped up. I assumed it was a problem with the phone thinking a headset was still plugged in, but all those fixes didn't work. Then I just reflashed the stock ROM on the phone (no wipes), and it worked again and the problem hasn't come back. Not sure if that will help you, but it might be worth a shot.

making & receiving calls.. getting dead air half the time...

Hi everyone, i am having a couple issues with my phone. Im no pro, but after rooting my old s3 i got thr s4 and rooted it before even making a call. i installed the pac-rom ROM and its been working great except for the following...
about 3 of 10 calls when answered is dead air, the person on the other end says it rings then stops to dead air..
also about 3 of 10 calls placed are dead air also, the person on the other end gets a ring and answers to dead air.. my call timer starts counting as a normal call would, not as if the phone is unable to gain a network connection to make the call, where the phone just wouldnt connect. i dont hear ringing.
its very annoying. not so much when making the call, but when trying to answer a work call then having to call them right back as they are trying to call you back and leaving a VM or something.. i talked with Telus, and of course they see nothing wrong. but they will only do so much as my phone has a custom rom and they just blame the problem on that regardless of whats actually causing it.
donation coming to whoever can get this fixed for me!
also, when i have google chrome open, or by using the google search bar, i cant google anything or go to my bank website from my phone. it seems that all secure webpages cant be viewed.. im also having a problem where some pages just wont load. wireless or not.. gives me a server error connection refused message.
im more worried about the connection problem than the surfing problem, any help is appreciated though! thanks!
anyone?
What device, what rom, what version of baseband, come on, more info will yield more answers...
If it's a 4.2 AOSP ROM, it's possible that the audio fix from cm hasn't been merged, and even if it has, there are still issues. There is a modified phone.apk you can try as well, just search the forums for it. This issue shouldn't be an issue much longer since it doesn't exist on 4.3
