[Q] Do your i9505 always "wake up" when you receive a call? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been having issues with my i9505 not always "waking up" when someone tries to ring me, and instead they get sent directly to my voicemail.
It's inconsistent from speaking to people who have tried to ring me and got my voicemail, even though my phone is ALWAYS ON 24/7 with a near maximum H+ signal, and always near full charge.
Is it normal when you press the home key and the lock screen appears that the clock initially shows the last time the phone was "woken" or "unlocked" and then in an instant corrects itself to the correct time??
It feels like the phone is going into a deeper sleep state than I'd like which MAY be causing my issues?

I've not done any updates whatsoever and have only had the phone for 2 weeks, and simply installed several apps.
It took ages to configure the phone settings to my liking, so I really don't want to factory reset it.
Does the "clock not updating on lock screen" that I mentioned happen to you or anyone else?

Waking up this question thread. I'm experiencing the exact same issues - with my i9506 (the LTE+ model). Quite annoying actually even though the problem may seem minute.
Interesting to see that you havd/hade the same problems under JB. I'm seeing the same under KK 4.4.2. Just checked the clock-update on lock screen and for a split of a second, the clock showed the "old time" before it updated. I do not know if i had the same problem before updating to KK (I had the phone only for about a month before it was updated to 4.4.2). Maybe it has to do with some deep sleep policy issue for the Snapdragon chipset as both the i9505 and i9506 have Snapragon. I have reported my observations to my local Samsung customer care centre (which is in Sweden).

Phone Doesn't Ring when in the standby mode !! Help Please!!

After a reboot it works fine for a few days (2-3 days)
Then the prblem starts.If you manually put it in standby mode (screen off) and make a call to the phone it rings. But if you wait till it goes to standby mode by itself it wil not ring. But it will show that you had a missed call when you resume the phone.
If you manually put it in standbye mode it starts doing i after while.
If you hard Reset the phone and resinstall everything, it works fine for a month or so then it starts doing the same thing as abovee.
Has anyone experienced this?
Is this a defective phone?
Thanks,
Phone not ringing when in standby
actually i've been having the same problem. every once in a while when i turn my phone back on from standby, i get all the text messages and missed calls that i got during the time it was in standby. i know this happened often with older versions of wm, but i thought it'd be fixed by now.
it happens about once a month, but it'd be nice to not miss important calls since i use it for work

This is really interesting. It seems to happen on some phones but not on some others. in out office it happens only on that one phone. I wonder if some of the phones are deffective.
I have the same problem with my phone and it is really frustrating. My phone still doesn't seem to ring or vibrate even sometimes when I bring it out of standby mode. The screen flips on and I get a notification...but no vibration or sound.
I frequently check to be sure that my notifications are set up in the settings properly. Weird.

We spoke to HTC about this. They said it's a known problem and they are
working on it.
Have you tried a hard reset? (hold Talk & End together and press the rest button. ****Be carefull this wipes out all data and reinstalls everything**).
We found out that for the time being rebooting soelves the problem for a few days. Hard reset solves the problem for a few weeks.
I have done a Hard Reset earlier with some success (for a few days). I find that a reboot typically solves the problem only for a couple of hours. I will eagerly await an HTC fix. haha.

Try disabling time synchronization under the phone options. That's seemed to have "fixed" my issue I experienced almost daily. I'm going on three weeks with no freezes.

Did that fix a freeze problem? Ours doesn't freeze. You can easily bring it out of standby. But while in standbye it doesn't ring. Are we talking about the same problem?

Maybe you're right, I experienced a slightly different issue. My phone wouldn't ring when someone called AND I couldn't bring it out of standby - it would not respond to a power button press. Disabling time synchronization fixed this and it now always rings.
I used to have this issue when I had my Touch checking my email once every hour. After a hard reset and changing to manual email sync the problem has been eliminated.
Keep in mind there is still an issue when the battery drops below 30% where the phone will not wake up for notifications. A charge and soft reset will fix this issue.
Hope this helps.
This is a know problem with the touch so far this is what has come about
hp://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=11805
HTC has mad the phone to shut down when the battery is at 30% from what people are saying to conserve the battery.

SD memory card is my theory
I think there is a problem with the memory cards on this phone. I don't know if it' a hardware problem or a wm software issue, but when you take the memory card out the phone is much more reliable. I've defintely had the missed call phenonema with the card in and I don't think it ever failed with it out. Many threads talk about flakey memory cards, Has anyone had this problem without the memory card in the phone? I've taken mine out because it is so poorly supported. Attachments cause a problem, activesync doesn't back up pictures from it, I've read other issues about programs that don't run from it!
I had the Standby of Death SOD this is when the phone fails to come out of standby with a power button press. This issue only affects some people on some networks. I'm not sure if its a network problem or a software problem but as only a minority of people have it, I suspect its mainly a network problem there is a software solution.
The solution is to change the phone settings band option from auto 3G/2G to either 3G Only (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) or 2G Only (GSM + AUTO) depending on your requirements.
Also read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540943&highlight=standby&page=2 where the resolution was to get a new SIM.
Obviously this only solves the problem when the crash is because of the sim and/or settings which impact the sim. To rule out a software cause its best to start with a hard reset.

"No service"

Several times recently (I'm not sure whether it started after I installed the OTA update or if it happened once before then) I have noticed that my phone says "No service" and doesn't pick up T-Mobile again until I power cycle.
It's not that unusual for me to see 0 bars of signal strength in my house; there are dropouts at various places, and I saw the same thing with AT&T on previous phones, so it's not a T-Mobile or Nexus One issue. The problem is that, once every few days, I will pull out my phone and see 0 bars and "No service" instead of "T-Mobile," and nothing short of a power cycle reestablishes the connection. I've tried going into and out of Airplane mode, with no effect, and I also tried using Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Network operators, and it never found any.
Maybe related is that when I try to power cycle after this occurs I have trouble doing so -- a few seconds into the shutdown sequence the circling arrow stops moving, I get some sort of notification "ping" and the trackball lights up, and the phone just sits there for a long time. Eventually it reboots -- whether because whatever it's waiting for times out and it continues the shutdown sequence or whether it's responding to my frustrated poking at various buttons while it's sitting there apparently doing nothing, I don't know.
If it's a hardware issue, it's very intermittent; I always have service after the reboot, and as I said, this only happens once every few days. I'm inclined to think it's a software or configuration problem (I'm using the stock 2.1-update1 firmware). Any thoughts or suggestions? TIA.
It happened again this evening when I had some more time to play around with it, so I have a bit more information about this problem.
When I tried Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Network operators, the circular arrow spun for a minute or two and eventually a little pop-up appeared saying, "Error searching for networks" or something like that.
It occurred to me that the SIM card might be bad or have a bad connection, so I installed an app (using wifi -- which, BTW, I had on throughout this whole process) that allows you to copy your contacts onto the SIM card and ran it. That seems not to be the problem, though, since that app could access the SIM card just fine, while I still had no service.
I toggled Airplane mode on and off, but there was still no change. I then again searched for network operators; the circular arrow appeared and stopped, then a couple of seconds later the phone spontaneously rebooted and I have service again.
Anybody have any guesses as to what these symptoms might indicate?
Every so often i got service but I cna't send text messges unless I power cycle. If I try to airplane mode cycle it won't let me get out of the mode.
wow, a bit refreshing knowing that I'm not the only one with this issue.
I'm on T-mobile and within the last week I've had 2 occassions where I looked at my phone and noticed no service, a power cycle caused it to freeze on "powering off" screen and I would have to pull the battery. After it booted it I had full bars again.
Within the last 2 weeks I have had issues where I would not be able to send a text messages until i power cycled.
The last time I had no service was 4 hours ago. I had to pull the battery to power cycle and get service again.
Thanks for the reply. I, also, pulled the battery the first time it hung in the shutdown sequence, but as I said in my first message, since then I have managed to complete the power-down after the hang, either because whatever it was waiting for eventually timed out or because something I did (e.g., holding down the power button for several seconds) overrode the wait. Next time it happens I'll try just waiting to see if it will complete the shutdown on its own.
Just out of curiosity, did you have wifi enabled at the time this happened? Bluetooth? I'm not sure whether it's relevant, but I leave both on all the time.
As for the text message problem, I don't send a lot of texts, so I probably wouldn't have noticed if I were having that problem and can't comment on any correlation.
Oh, and a couple more questions: do you have NetCounter installed? And are you in a location where you sometimes or frequently get 0 bars of signal strength?

I have had similar issues with other phones...
For me it turned out to be an issue with my sim card.

I usually have both bluetooth and Wifi enabled all the time...
Dont have netcounter installed.
Dunno about the SIM card issue, unless its a combo of the N1 and my SIM card, because I swap to using my BB 8900 once in a while and I never have text message or no service issues.
Im experiencing the same problem, I have dropped calls in some spots around town (when changing towers it seems), I drop service when inside my home and cant send texts (until a power cycle), horrible 3G speeds of less than 1MB/S all around town (driving and standing directly under the Tmobile Tower that across the street from the tmobile store).
NONE of this happened with my G1....my 3G speeds always sucked though but were usually around 1.5-2.1MB/S.
Im located in Fredericksburg,VA.
(MY PHONE IS NOT ROOTED AND IS RUNNING THE OTA UPDATE1)
Im pretty sure it was the radio update, cause after i get out of a place where i get no signal at all, and i get to a open place I have to reboot the phone to get signal again
I've been busy for the last six weeks or so and haven't been following N1 news around the net. Has anyone heard of any progress on this issue? It seemed to go away on my phone for a couple of weeks, but it's back with a vengeance: it's happened to me about once a day for the last few days, which is more frequently than any time since I've had the phone, so I'd really like to get this fixed somehow.
Can you take a youtube video of it? the more the better to get Google to fix it.
Also these issues seem to be related over here too http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?fid=1cc152dbb797df2f000483d7c88e343e&hl=en

Thanks for the link. It seems to me that several different problems are collected together there; mine is specifically the one where I go to zero bars (which happens fairly often; I have several dead spots in my house) and it never comes back.
A video of this would be pretty boring to watch; there's really nothing to see. The signal strength shows zero bars with an "x" and the home screen shows "no service." Trying to power off, or going into and out of airplane mode, shows the spinning arrow for a few seconds, then it stops; a few seconds later the screen goes blank; then a half-minute after that the multicolored "X" appears and the phone reboots itself.
No SMS Gateway
I think this is a separate issue for the phone not switching back to a connected state with the service provider. In the case of SMS, I have also noticed that you may have signal but you have no SMS gateway. No idea where it goes or why it does that.
For whatever reason you loose the SMS gateway phone number settings and become unable to send text messages without a reboot. This is evident by visiting:
Phone
dial *#*#4636#*#* (if you happen to mis-dial this start over after clearing the display or it won't work)
Phone information
Under SMSC: press Refresh.
If no number displays (in my case +12063130004) then you have no route for the SMS messages to take. Entering that number and pressing update will fix it but just restart so it can pick it back up from the SIM/Carrier configutation.

Yep, that certainly sounds identical to my experience. Next time I have the problem I'll force a crash by toggling airplane mode instead of trying to power off (it seemed from the thread that last_kmsg would not be saved if there is a normal reboot, and indeed I have no last_kmsg from the reboot that resulted from trying to power cycle after the last time I had the problem).
Thanks for the cross-reference.

That would be nice, but I haven't seen any activity on the issue on the Android developers' board. Speaking as a programmer, these intermittent, once-every-few-days kinds of problems are a real pain to debug, so I can't blame people for not wanting to tackle the issue...
I had this issue but fixed it by installing the Radio Rom and OS again from the last update. Has not done it again. Now its a power button issue lol.

Strange phone issues with Samsung Galaxy S

Hi,
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S about a month ago, and have been having odd problems with it since the off. Has anyone else had these sort of symptoms:
1. I occasionally lose my data connection - the icon disappears from the top of the screen and whilst I can still make and recieve calls and text messages, I cannot download anything in any app. The only way I've found to get my data connection back is to reset the phone. This happens maybe a couple of times a week.
2. My WiFi seems to suffer from a similar problem. I can be browsing the web on Wifi, then suddenly I'll not be able to download anything anymore. The wifi icon is still visible, but I'll basically be unable to download anything until I switch the wifi off and back on again. Then, it starts working as normal again.
In both these above scenarios, I think I've narrowed it down to primarily happening after I use the Android Market, but it's difficult to tell as it's very intermittent.
3. A couple of times since getting the phone, I've been unable to make or receive any calls. Even switching the phone off and back on didn't help - my signal bar was showing I had a signal and my data connection was still active. Couldn't tell if this was a network problem or not though as there weren't any people nearby on the same network as me. After a while, it started working normally again.
4. The email client randomly lost all of my email settings. One day I was receiving all my emails, the next day I had no email accounts set up at all.
5. I installed Sensor Dump and Phone Explorer to see what data was coming in from the sensors, and have noticed that the light sensor never sends any data. Is this normal?
I also have the usual slow-down issues, etc, but the above have got me stumped as I can't find anyone else reporting the same issues. When I first got the phone, I went crazy installing a load of Android apps, so initially I blamed the software I'd installed. After a reset and being a bit more selective with the apps I install and use, I'm still getting the same issues. I just can't pin down whether this is a faulty phone that I should return, or if there are software issues either relating to the way I'm using the phone or just with bugs in the firmware.
Has anyone else had anything like the above happen with their Galaxy S?
Thanks,
Chris.
I've experienced no.2 several times, wifi just stopping all data traffic. Not found out what causes it though.
As for the other problems, I haven't experienced any of those. Do you use automatic brightness on the display? If not, problem no. 5 might be caused by the sensor being turned off.
thanks for the reply - at least I'm not completely alone!
I have the automatic brightness turned on - which is why it seems odd. To be honest, I've never actually see the auto brightness do anything. It always seems to be the same brightness to me.
Cheers,
Chris.

I think it might be normal that older mails disappear from the inbox after some time? My problem was that everything went. I had three email accounts set up, all downloading emails every hour. Then, one day I went into the email app and there were no accounts at all! I had to set it all up from scratch again.
I hear there are better email apps available for Android, so I'll probably switch to one of those soon.

Hi,
I bought a Galaxy S on Orange UK in July. I'm having the same problem as 1. quite consistenly now.
I thought it might be related to the green power battery saver app I had installed, but i've removed this and still having the problem.
I'm using the phone in several central London locations so I think it's unlikely to be a problem with the data network.
Any suggestion would be welcome since I'm often without data.
Thanks
Nik
ive 1 and 3 but very rarely so far
rebooting fixes it for me
running froyo jp3
for email i use K9, it's almost the same as the integrated mail, only much better (PUSH imap)

I'm actually getting this happen a lot now. It seems to be getting worse, which makes me think it might be a hardware fault. I generally lose my data connection once or twice a day minimum, but some days the phone is virtually unusable.
I have found that it's more likely to happen after using Wi-Fi, so my other thought is that when coming out of Wireless mode, the phone may not switch the normal 3G/HSDPA data connection back on. Most of the time I can fix this by putting the phone into flight mode and then back out, but sometimes it needs a complete reset.
The other problem I've noted with the data connection is that sometimes it seems to rapidly switch between HSDPA and 3G - the data icon at the top of the screen keeps going from '3G' to 'H' then back again. I guess it has something to do with signal quality but it only seems to happen when the phone is showing a good signal strength (four bars). The problem I've found when this happens is that it virtually locks up any ongoing data transfers, making it impossible to download a webpage or check my emails. Strangely the only way I've really found to stop this happening is to move somewhere where my signal strength is weaker, such as indoors, which then seems to make the phone stop attempting to use HSDPA. I can't find a way to switch off HSDPA from within the phone's settings while leaving 3G on.
I really am now finding that using this phone is an increasingly frustrating experience. I've found even more weird faults, such as sometimes my text conversations show the wrong people's names up against them, and then my replies go to the wrong people. It's like an insane, shiny mess of a phone!

I am indeed experiencing same problems above..it just drive me crazy with a need of complete reset everyday..
turning on n off flight mode won't change anything..
I really hope someone can bring a miracle to solve this problem..
I'm on XXJPC
setting the APN parameter(Setting-->Wireless and network-->Mobile Networks-->Access Point Names-->New APN) to 2G only seems to solve the 'lost data connection' problem..
I am connected 24/7 now..
Give a try guys!

Clock drift?

Anyone else getting click drift with the dell? It sometimes drifts by 10 minds Really annoying when your alarm is set for 6:10. The other day I was setting of for the train home looked at my phone to see how quick I had to walk and it told me I was late and had just missed it. When I got to the station I hadn't at all the click had drifted 10 mins....freaky
Sent from my Dell Streak using Tapatalk
Should get my Streak later today so will let you know how it fairs in this regard!
It's a bug/hardware fault.
if you pull out the power cable from the device it'll randomly add 15 minutes onto the time.
Other effects may include, setting the vibrate on and sending the device into a fit.
plus it may kill the vibrate mode as well so that the device doesn't vibrate until you receive a phone call.
the only solution I've found for the above problems is that you have to turn the power off before you unplug the phone.
I'm not sure if this is a permanent fix but I'm trying it for the next few days to see if it works, else the phone is going back.
Mine has gained time once before, it is set to 'get time updates from cell'.
I think the cell may have been putting out a duff time because never seen this problem with internet time, or auto-update time off settings.
Not experienced the streak doing any of the weird vibro fit you describe either.
Maybe seperate issues?
Same here with both Streak's regardless what settings I use. Not very handy since I always use the alarm app. Design flaw....
Yep, same here
Initially I thought it was to do with the fact that I had not set it to "internet time" (or whatever it is called). I was set on "O2 time" (or whatever it is called)
However whichever one it is on, I have seen this problem. Alythough saying that... have only noticed it twice and I have had my Streak since "O2 Day1"
Whether this happens more than I notice it does, and it corrects itself (?) I don't know.

Two possible bugs with JK6?

I Odin-ed the JK6 update and when i look under status, it said "unknown" under Phone number. Does this happen to everyone too?
Another thing i found is that the menu button's vibration feed back is laggy. Like i would press the button then it would vibrate shortly after. For the other three buttons it would vibrate upon pressed. Is this a new thing in Froyo? I dont recall Eclair behave like this.
Also, does anyone having battery issue with JK6? Mine seem to drain a bit quicker than when i was running JI6.
the leak is buggy,
let's just wait for the official one, it should be soon..

Mine shows "unknown" for the phone #. I'm running pure stock JI6, so this issue is not specific to JK6. I don't use key vibrate (seems like a battery drain to me) so can't comment on that.
Edit: I don't check this very often, so took a look and now mine is showing the #. I know it was "unknown" for a month or two after I got the phone at the end of July, but there was a period where it did show the #, then the JI6 update seemed to set it back to unknown. Now the # is back. No idea what would make it toggle like that.
I don't see why this is so "huge" that everyone mentions the Unknown under your phone number...? It doesn't affect anything. MMS isn't affected by this.
Anywho, Slight lag in the applications drawer though but it's very subtle and the issues with MMS picture quality (but hopefully that's fixed after Froyo is "Officially" released.
One more thing, last night I was on EDGE and pulled the status bar down to activate Wifi. It just said "ON" underneath it and didn't do anything, so I went into the settings and looked and stated "ERROR". Tried again to activate it and it didn't do anything, actually locked the phone for a few seconds then the phone started vibrating when I touched the screen. After that I got back to the Settings menu and activated Wifi again and it went through.. weird.
Otherwise no other issues I've run into.
Unknown number is not a huge problem as you can make/receive calls and text. Only thing I've run into is that you can't use the Verizon Fios Remote DVR app since it's tied to your phone number. That ws my only problem anyway.
Off topic, I've tried a lot of the customized ROMs and leaks. Seems I'm always back to stock JI6 which works great for me with the exception of it being a little laggy. Been trying the Voodoo lag fix on it but can't get it to work on JI6. But that's a completely different topic....
Going to stick with JI6 until the official Froyo comes out.
Can you guys send MMS? I get a server error everytime I try?
I have the Phone number unknown as well. My Home button is what is giving me problems. It is very temperamental. Doesn't work most of the time.

Can send and receive mms. quality sucks though as of right now..
Odin'd the leaked *untouched* ROM.
I just odin JK6 and I can confirm my does say unknown for phone number. One thing I have noticed is before if you used to volume rocker to lower the ringer, you then reach vibrate and then silent. Now the phone simply goes into vibrate, nothing lower then that.

Which I like, I never used Silent, only vibrant. I freaking bought the Beautiful Widgets for the button for Vibrant, now all I have to do is drag down the status bar and change it.
I think you can change the function of the button/rocker in the Settings.. as far as what it does, silent/vibrate
Not sure if its a bug, but at one point the web browser kept popping up an error saying there is no Internet connectivity, click retry or ok. I was on wifi at the time. A reboot cleared it out, but it happening was odd.
I was just wondering if it just me or it is the ROM it self. To me, if it said unknown mean there is some issue with the rom, not goin to blame anyone since it is not official.
I can confirm the volume rocker too, it goes to vibrate at the lowest. The silent from the notification just make the phone vibrate as well.
I did have some trouble with 3G this morning. Tried to get on navigation and it just say "getting direction" for a while. When i look back i dont have Edge or 3G icon, check in status it said GPRS. I rebooted the phone andgot 3g back. Kind of weird. I hope the final come soon....
