Currently I'm running CM7 stable and I'm having a few problems which are starting to annoy me.
1) The first is to do with making and receiving calls. I'm finding that all calls are dropped. Some are dropped straight away, others after a minute or two.
Does anyone know whats causing this, is it the ROM, kernel or radio? (or anything else ) Has it been fixed in the nightly's?.
2) Another problem is sometimes when I turn mobile data on, the phone doesn't connect to the mobile internet even when in a full signal area. Once this happens, no amount of turning on and off mobile data solves the problem. The only way I found to solve this, is to switch to 2G only and then back to 2/3G and then it'll work. Again is this a problem that anyone else has experienced and has it been solved in the nightly's?
Thanks for all help in advance
The minute I turn on my 3g any normal voice calls made from my phone gets disconnected within a second.
If I switch to Wifi / 2g the issue is solved!
I have tried Settings - Call Settings - Additional settings - Caller ID but the option of caller id itself is unselectable!! I have read many people saying to select caller ID and set network default fixing the problem but on my phone it is unselectable!
Please advice on how I can fix this problem! Thank you
Facing exactly the same probelm

Even i am facing exactly the same problem. Any help to fix this would be greatly appreciated. I think this has started after updating the software.
Dark Prince - Did you too update the software from 2.1 to 2.2 before this problem started?
Any relief for this problem pls?

No I am running stock 2.3.6 and havent done any updates since I got my phone 6 months back! The problem is still not resolved!
I beleive it is a problem with my carrier Airtel as they say that there is 3g upgradation going on in my area. But I still face this problem all around Bangalore!! I cant understand what is the major cause of this problem! I have used my sim in my friends Sony Ericsson Arc and there is no issue whatsoever! Im still waiting for a solution. Please lemme know if you find anything as well! Tx
I don't think its a problem with airtel because I'm facing this problem with vodafone, I m facing the same problem with airtel sim also in the same handset however same sims are working fine with other handsets.
Initially vodafone told it might be a problem in their network but after checking they confirmed that there is no issue with their network.
I feel its an issue with phone itself but know its related to hardware or software. Factory reset also didn't work, tried all possible ways that I could think of including replacing sim but no lucktill now.
I took phone to motorola service too, all they could suggest was to replace sim and factory reset which I've already done, only solution left is to give the phone for checking and they need 2 days to check if any fault is there.
Did your phone always had this problem or started recently? Do u remember making any settings in phone before this problem started?

You're right.. I guessed the same! Well this phone has been giving me this problem since January of this yr. Before that it was perfect! I cant remember making any changes in the settings. I have also done a factory reset but the issue isnt solved. I cant understand what to do now?! this really is getting irritating cause every time i have to make a call i switch off the Data using toggles widget and turn on again once done. I cant do this forever. Even the calls which I get from someone else gets cut in a second and appears as a missed call. I desperately need someone to suggest a cure for this!
Do let me know if you have made any setting changes recently . I ll try to remember if there is any common changes we have made and try to find a solution for this.

I also want to state that when my 3g was on before the issue began it used to be displayed as H - meaning high speed internet. Since the day I ve been facing this problem the H symbol changes to 3G - once this transition takes place immediately call gets dropped. I ve never seen the 3G being displayed before the problem.
Question: Does the 3G have to be switched off automatically once a call is made? Like for eg. if you re connected on wifi, even when you are in a call the wifi is still on and active in the background.
Is the 3G supposed to switch off automatically once a call is made just like it does when in 2g??
Some of the things I remember which happened before this problem started are:
1) I updated the firmware.
2) I kept a heavy bag on my phone by mistake.
3) I changed the phone's battery, I'm now using the an extended battery bought from eBay.
4) I changed the screen guard, using a matte finish guard now. (wondering if the solvents that they use while fixing the screen guard have any impact on this)
5) I started using the application Team Viewer a lot to operate my home laptop from office.
I've mentioned everything that I could think of, is any of this matching with you?
Its was a very good handset till this problem started, I don't want to buy a new phone just to fix this problem.
One more thing I observed is that this problem has increased over time, initially when this came to my notice 50% of the calls got cut while using 3g, but now all calls are dropped while using 3g.
The calls - both incoming and outgoing are working fine even if 3g is on but no data is being transfered. Once the call is connected 3g works fine. The problem is only in starting/initiating the call while 3g data transfer is happening once the call is connected 3g is fine.
Regarding my usage:
I've been using this phone very roughly from past one n half year, I use it regularly to download using both wi fi n 3g, I listen to music everyday using bluetooth n also watch many movies on my phone itself.
In short usage is very high n rough.
Could it be a wear n tear damage because of this?
Pls let me know if any of the mentioned points match with you which will help us locate the reason for the problem.

Well Sry but nothing in common! For me since the beginning of the problem, 100% of the calls are getting dropped! its been a month now. Do you face this problem in a specific area or all over town? Ive searched a lotta forums for an answer but to no avail! I dont know if rooting the phone will help!?!?! but that is my next step. Did you try going to Settings<Wifi and Networks<Mobile networks and selecting 3G only? FOr me the problem persists but i guess you should try this.
Hmm, problem is all over the town.
I've also selected 3g only in settings.
Even I'm thinking of rooting my phone but I'm afraid I'll brick my phone.
How are you planning to root your phone?

I ve posted on a forum for rooting advice as well! Still confused on which procedure to follow. The cm10 JB from Quarx sounds promising but only for defy MB525! Lucky you. I still have to wait for the MB526 which is not yet stable!
Thanks, can you pls provide the link to the page where step by step rooting instructions have been provided..
Do let me know if you come across any solution or workaround for this problem, I'll also update you if I get any..

Rooting seems to be complicated, didn't do it as I'm afraid of briking my phone.

I gave my phone for service yest and I am expecting it tomorrow in the evening. Will Keep you posted on the update.
Same problem
I am EXACTLY facing the same problem. I have an AirTel sim and I don't remember from this problem got started. I tried restoring factory setting, flashing the phone in authorized service center and nothing helped. I was about to install custom ROM and just read this thread in the forum. I will wait for some more time to see if any of you is lucky enough to find a solution for it.
As a temporary workaround, I have changed the GPRS to 2G and its working now. In 3G, if I try making calls, the data connectivity will not be cancelled, but in 2G, as soon as you hit the green button, the data will be cancelled.
Please reply if you find any solution for it. Thank you!
Solved!

1) Does anyone of you NOT use motoblur Account????
2) Does anyone of you NOT use google account in your phone?
I think the solution lies in the questions above. If you use either one, the problem will persist. Try to factory reset your phone and skip log in Motoblur and Skip google account sync. The problem should be solved.
No luck
As suggested by you, I did a factory reset and tried making call without adding Google account and it didn't workout. I had the same problem. I even tried adding another Google account (after wiping data) and same problem. I lost hope
I am gonna use my mobile with 2G only till someone finds a permanent solution.
Thanks for your help!
hi friends,
i have a peculiar problem with my sgy now. it started showing for past 1 month. my galaxy y turns off itself randomly.some times it may happen from my pocket ,some times it happens when the phone is not used for a long time and kept idly, it happens also when attending a call. so i am not sure that its not deep sleep switch off problem. this happens both in stock and custom rom or kernels.i have tried many combinations of it. After turning on the phone from random shut down setcpu shows unclean shut down warning and network fails to register to a network for more than 5 mins. i need to manually scan for network. Guys how can i find the reason for the shut down? is there any logs which shows the reason for shutdown? how i can i solve this? is the a problem due to ageing of my sgy? any sort of help is appreciated.
its most likely a kernel problem - if changing kernels doesnt solve it best thing to solve all problems is just to flash stock rom via odin and start again

I had a similar problem a few months after receiving my SGY (a few years ago now). It was new at the time so I swapped it twice under guarantee but without success - even the replacement SGY's did the same. I also got the SIM changed twice since they thought my old SIM caused the issue. Still no success.
The solution was to change from the provider, Vodafone, who I had been using for several years. Fortunately the new provider used the same frequencies and I could keep my number.
I suspect that the culprit was Vodafone's version of 4G, which was being tested downtown at the time before rolling out elsewhere. The crash/reboots wouldn't happen at home in the suburbs just downtown where I worked in the city center and where Vodafone was doing their early testing.
My new provider installed their own 4G system a year or so later but without causing issues so I am still with the new provider.
Perhaps you could try a cheap PrePaid SIM from a different provider: maybe it solves your problem?
Yeah !
Sometimes when I send a text message it just keeps trying to send it and sometimes just fails, sometimes the delay is for a min and any message sent during that time won't send :/ its really frustrating and irritating, there are no fixed patterns and it just happens, some day it wont happen some day 5 out of 10 messages will do this. I can't find any solution to this problem anywhere. I use evolve sms but it also happened with the stock one. Any kinda help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

That's what happens when your phone cannot find a signal. Sometimes your phone will say it has a signal but will not be able to send anyway. Simply reboot the phone to reset the connection. You should reboot your phone at least once a day to refresh all connections and get rid of ongoing processes.
Hmmm ok if i restart it works for a while, but have to do it much more than once a day :/ Restarting works as a temporary solution. Any other permanent solution?
