Voicemail and Keypad Problem [Resolved] - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone, finally updated to NI2, and got everything working right. However, I can't change the voicemail number. It keeps reverting back to *86 even though it says it was successfully changed. Another issue I'm having is checking my voicemail. When I type the pin in, it seems like the keys aren't registering. Same goes for 1-800 numbers when you have to press the extension. I read somewhere to enable car mode and disable it, but this hasn't worked for me. I've even gone as far as reflashing back to stock completely, and I still have this issue. Any help would be great. Thanks
Edit: Ended up fixing it by changing DTMF setting to long

Cyanogenmod - cannot phone my phone, no SMS alerts...

Hi Everyone, I have searched for an answer to my problem but cannot find anything.
I have upgraded my G1 to Cyanogen, and everything works fine except I get no notifications to text messages, they just arrive, with nothing to tell me they have arrived.
Another problem is when I call my phone, it rings once and then gives an engaged tone. There is nothing coming up on the phone to say I have a call, however it does put the call in my missed call list...
I have checked GSM call settings but all forwarding is disabled.
I have just upgraded to the latest cyanogenmod with the updater software, however I still have the same problem.
Another thing that doesnt seem to work is the home button, and camera button, and the phone no longer locks.
I am at a loss for what to try, apart from trying to flash the phone back to its original state.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
When you did the update did you wipe first? You can fix your problem, but you need to wipe your phone. So wipe, then reaaply the update. This does happen to people from time to time, and I've yet to see the direct cause or solution. A possibility is something in the dalvik-cache.

[Q] Can't make phone calls, Data still works

So, I went to make a phone call earlier and realized I hit the wrong number. I ended the call immediately and then immediately tried to call the right number and the call just ended before it even rang. Now I am unable to make phone calls as every time I try to call any number it says calling and then the call just instanly ends. Anyone have any idea what is going on?
First option would be to power off and pull the battery. If it doesn't work after trying that, than second option would be to perform a hard reset.
Regards,
Tom
are you running the stock rom, or are you rooted with clockwork recovery installed, and running a different rom?
I have definitely tried rebooting, removing battery, sim, etc. I have now discovered that this only happens when I am at work. I am going to have to do more extensive testing to figure out exactly where I can make calls and where I can't but could it have something to do with which tower I am connected to? I have full signal and data and sms work fine.
*edit* I have not rooted it yet or installed a custom ROM.
Okay, well. Now it appears to be working. Now I'm really confused. Anyone have any ideas what is going on?
nope, it sounds nuts to me.
i would recommend using the phone a lot and trying to recreate the problem under specific circumstances. perhaps its a faulty piece of hardware.

[Q] Problem with CM9 and sms sending

Hi again folks
After getting my once almost bricked MB525 all IP and running again, I thought that I try again o move up to CM10. It kept rebooting so I thought that I'd try CM9. It installed fine and everything is running except for sending SMSs. I can receive them, make calls and browse then net fine.
I tried to set a the SMSC setting using *#*#4636#*#* but when I press update nothing happens. I have tried refresh and it gets a number but still nothing happens when update gets pressed.
Any one have any ideas please?
Have upgrade to CM10 and still have the same problem. Can't set the SMSC number.
All sorted. When I tried entering the SMSC number I tried entering the PDU number and was getting nowhere so entered the actual number, pressed update then press refresh and the number came back the same.
So basically I figure that anyone tries this and can get the update to work, you entered the wrong number and it's not being accepted so keep trying.
Cheers Folks
By the way this forum is brilliant for all sorts of info.

HELP. 6P not receiving texts/BLANK SMSC

To start, I'm on Android 7.0 using the September security patch and am rooted.
Never had an issue with this phone before. Ever since yesterday morning I have not been able to receive anyone's text messages. I'm not sure about MMS but I haven't gotten any of those either. The weird thing is that I can SEND texts just fine....and I can also send text messages to myself and they come through.
After digging and researching I accessed that hidden settings menu by typing *#*#4636#*#* into my dialer and looking at the SMSC number which should be for Tmobile, my provider, +12063130004. However, it's blank and I'm unable to change it. Hitting "update" gives me an "update error" in the field and if I hit refresh I get "+12063130004",145 with the quotes and the 145. If I hit update from there and reboot it's still blank. If I put in +12063130004 and reboot it's still blank.
I have data, I can make and receive calls and surf the web. So far I've tried switching sms apps to no avail. I'm currently using google messenger. I've tried removing the sim and placing it back in. I went in to TWRP wiped cache, dalvich cache and data and it did nothing. Finally I reverted to a nandroid I made about a month ago when sms was working fine and it's still not working.
I'm out of ideas fellas. At my wit's end here!
Oh, I should also let you know that I think this all started when my girlfriend sent me a text message that i received yesterday morning. It was the last text I was able to get......she's on a cruise so she sent it somewhere near mexico....I think it made my phone have a massive brain fart and I'm not sure how to fix this bug. Please help!!
No one? I've found nothing on the web..
This may sound obvious, but have you tried using a factory image to return to stock?
Sounds like you've done everything but that.
I suppose you could also try deleting your APN and manually entering a correct one for your carrier. That's helped me in the past on other devices when I've had weird data/service issues.
Funny you asked. I did a full wipe and returned to stock on the latest November build. Still a no go. People still get my texts and I can still use data/make and receive calls fine. I'll try the APN suggestion now.
As far as APN's go, I tried to reset them to default. I even tried deleting all of them except for the one I was using which in the past for other devices helped with certain issues. I then created a custom APN setting that I found on the 6p forum that helped other users with SMS/MMS issues....no help for me.
I can still send SMS,mms, make and receive phone calls. No idea what to do!!!
I have a similar but different issue. I can receive messages just fine. But sometimes when i send messages id say about 40% of the time my message gets stuck at the "sending" and it takes sometimes up to 10min for it to send. I can speed the process up if i go to the secret menu and toggle the radio off and on.
Im on ATT BTW. I thought it had something to do with ATT shutting down the 2G network and the phone getting confused as to which network to send messages on but im no expert its just a theroy.
PS. I had this problem pop out of nowhere. Had it start randomly on PN6 (last build) so i upgraded to PN7 same thing on 2 different versions of the ROM. And now im on SuperAx 7.1 and still have the issue.
Ive always had problems with Nexus's and messages. When i had the Nexus 5 i actually had to warranty it out because MMS all of a sudden would not work at all.
I received one text today from someone. That's it. Not getting all the missed sms messages and not getting any additional sms messages.

Dialing out stopped

So I went to send a text yesterday and it was taking forever and I had to make a call. I went to make the call and nothing happened. So I tried another number and the same thing. Then the text finally went through and the second call started. I stopped it as I didn't want to call that number. Then I went to call the original number and it starts to dial and then just ends the call. Tried again and the same thing. Tried the other number and again the same thing. Rebooted the phone and it worked fine. Have had a the phone over a year and this never happened before. Anyone else have something similar happen since the update?
Are you running a custom ROM, or has voLTE been disabled somehow?
