It Could be my provider problem, but just wanted to make sure.
Is anyone having failed attempts at calling , where it continues to keep ending the call every time u press talk?
Yep. When that happens nothing works. Texts. Email. Everything. Reset fixes it.

Happened to me first time today, had phone since launch.
Flashed my first customer ROM yesterday (CM7) and thought it might be that. Only a reboot fixed it, not even switching to Airplane mode.
How often does it happen to you guys?

it started happening to me recently, and quite often.
i really dislike pressing call over and over for it to keep failing.
I thought it was my carrier too, but normally a reboot fixes everything!
That was happening to me quite a lot. During a phone call it would drop the call but had full 3g service. Nothing was working, calls, internet, emails, google chat.
Hasn't happened since I did a factory reset. It's a pain in the arse to keep entering all the info again but it hasn't done it since.
I guess it a temporary solution.
It happens to me as well.
Happens to me too. I'm not sure if it's just the Nexus S since it happened pretty often on my Nexus One. I use Google Voice with all calls and I think that that may be the culprit.
It may have started with the 3.3.2 update for me.
It needs a reboot to fix it. Really annoying.
This happened to me yesterday. At first I was like wtf is going on here, then I rebooted the phone.
Two days ago I un-installed the e-bay app as I noticed it started up all the time by itself, and since doing so have not had any calls dropping out.
Ok heres one for you guys!
Theres been multiple times i've been asked why I didnt answer my phone when people called, but on my phone it has not rung nor does it show a missed call. My GF just called and said she called a few minutes prior but i didnt pick up. She knew i mentioned this problem so she called again and i got it.
I REALLY dont like this bug......
Calls drop with 2.3. 3 too.
Dial..., nothing. Dial..., nothing.... sometimes it takes multiple attempts, with mane green bars.

Isn't the voicemail thing a network fault, not the phone?
I use a free service for my voicemail called HulloMail, get the app from the market and follow the instructions, you'll get the ability to have the voicemails emailed to you and pushed to your phone with their app as well as the old fashioned way to call up by holding #1

For some strange reason my phone number wont work on my phone. If I call it from another phone it says the " the number or code you have entered is incorrect, try again". I took it to Sprint and they couldn't figure it out. They were going to give me a new phone and send me on my way but the same thing happens on the new phone. Now a number I've had for 12yrs I may have to change it. I wonder if I can switch services and keep the same number? Has this happen to anyone?
I'm wondering, were you using a 3rd party VVM app?

I thought it may have been google voice but I disabled that and still nothing. I don't think it would make my phone not be able to do do anything, even after they reset my phone, de-activated then re-activated my service, and switched to a new phone..
I see Sooooo many people have major problems after using Google voice. Like the can't get calls anymore, or can't get texts. I've always stayed away from it, but always read awful stuff.
Are you sure you disabled it properly, did you disable it from a desktop website?
There are a few guides floating around the forum RE: Google voice. Sorry, can't remember where, exactly.

I went and picked up another Evo from Sprint, the free one they try'd to reset yesterday. Everything works now, I can make calls and receive them. The funny thing is they dont know how it got fix. The tech came in the morning to try and fix it again and it worked itself out. They still have no clue what happened.
Hi there,
I've encountered this weird problem on my rooted Nexus 4. Let's say I enter a phone number to call. When I hit the "call" icon,
1) the phone number is called
2) the call (which hasn't yet been established) is disconnected immediately. This happens in a split of a second. I actually shot a video and then played it frame by frame to actually figure out what's happening.
3) and finally the call is made as usual. Everything is normal from this point on.
This happens for every outgoing call. Same thing happens if I choose a number from the contact list to dial.
I tried uninstalling the apps that I was suspicious about but it didn't help. I also booted in safe mode but I could still observe the problem.
I'd really appreciate any help. I'm more than willing to try something to get a log, trace, etc. to help in identifying my problem. I just don't know how to do that.
Cheers,
--Salem

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...

Nope, not using Google Voice and am always talking to people on their cell phones. I rarely call landline phones anymore. I have pretty much all notification settings turned off also. I'm at a loss here
I have this EXACT problem.
Happens on my S3 as well. I replaced sim cards but that doesn't do anything. I'm guessing its something with att

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.
