I'm not sure what's going on but here's my situation.
Call Forwarding Forward All Video Calls is stuck on
Persistant notification is present for Call Forwarding
Call Forwarding Setting in Phone app is grayed out so I can't even set it.
Factory Reset had no impact. Currently 100% stock apps, no 3rd party
Does anyone have any insight into this? I have no idea how it got turned on. Battery life doesn't seem to be it's normal capacity either.
same thing happened to me a few months ago, finally got it addressed by getting my SIM swapped out with my ISP.

My calls are not saving to history. It will save calls to history, then if I soft reset it seems to not be able to save calls again until I clear the history. This is very annoying. I have an idea what may be causing it (maybe the file isnt closing correctly and its unable to access it on restart?), but im not sure. In either case it sucks to get 3 missed calls and not have any idea who called you. Not good for business. Any solutions folks?
I am running the latest HTC Cingular Update on a CID cracked h2o mini s. I had phone dashboard installed, but removed it, did not solve problem.
Thanks,

For some reason incoming calls have started being transferred to voicemail, as if the phone were off. I have full network coverage/bars though, so not sure what the problem is. Could it be a malfunction in the calls divert feature? When I try to check settings it says not possible.
When does it happen? When the phone is on standby power? or even when you have the phone's screen on? Try going to start>settings>power>advanced
untick the boxes. Sounds like You might have sleep of death issues
Actually, I had that problem for quite some time... I found that if I moved into a different area, sometimes as little as 1 meter, I was able to change/check the settings... Sorry, my problem was the inability to check the settings and getting an error message....
Once you are able, you may want to see if you inadvertently set the phone to forward your calls... Don't think you would forget something like that, but I've done it on more than one occassion... I wonder if that *73 turns off call forwarding like on landlines... I think I'll have to give that a try...
EDIT: Nope that doesn't work...
Ok, this is very weird. Phone was behaving like that all the time, regardless of standby, screen on off etc.
This morning I try it again and it works, and I can now get into the network services settings to check on call forwarding, and nothing is unusual there, i.e. it's not been set to always forward.
So now it seems to be working again... But I'm sure the problem's not been solved since I didn't do anything. Any idea what could be causing this. Nothing to do with my location either cause it's worked and hasn't in the same locations.
First off, I didn't find this anywhere on the forum, so I hope it's not a dupe - but it's a very annoying problem. I have a Galaxy S5 on KitKat. Here's the issues (pretty much all related):
Often times, I'll answer an incoming call successfully but the person on the other line simply hears a continuous ring cycle.
(Same as #1), but instead of hearing ring cycles - they get voicemail.
On other occasions my phone will be face up on a counter, I'll get a phone call, and when I walk over to the device it will "automatically answer" but the person never connects on the other line.
For all of these occasions, this seems to happen more frequently the first time someone tries to call me. Sometimes additional incoming calls from that number will go through with more success, but not all the time. Restarting the phone and pulling out the SIM card and battery not only do not fix the issue, but seem to consistently re-create the problem.
I should also note that I had Google voice as my provider for voicemail, but I have temporarily disabled that and set up my voicemail through Verizon - still doesn't help. Also 3rd party dialer apps like Dialer One do not make a difference.
Here are my settings:
Android Version 4.4.4 - Kitkat, no updates available (non rooted)
Blocking mode disabled
Motions and Gestures disabled
S-Voice disabled
Preferred network mode: LTE / CDMA **This seemed to solve the problem at first, but it came back immediately. (It was set to 'Global')
I've spent hours trying to fix this and contemplated rooting my device to try to get it to work, but to be honest I'd rather just exchange the phone for a new one before I did something like that. I also have not restored to Factory Default... but again that is preferably a last resort.
Any thoughts? I need a 100% working phone for my job and missing phone calls and having to call people back just isn't cutting it.

First try a data factory reset, if that doesn`t help refash the stock rom with odin 3.09 and after that factory reset/wipe cache in recovery.

Im having the same issue, i cleared the cache, did a factory reset and made sure s voice was turned off, it cleared the issue up for about a month. Recently i have been having this issue happen more and more. Im starting to think it may have something to do with the Bluetooth or the visual Voice mail / voice mail. Anyone else have any ideas on what else to try or do ? The only problem is recreating the environment to cause it to happen. Right now its completely random.
Ok ive been pulling my hair out for a while with this problem so im really hoping you guys can give me some answers or suggestions to help me fix it My Girlfriend has the Galaxy S5 SM-G900V. Baseband version G900VVRU2BOG5 So rooting or custom ROMS is out of the question so that leaves me with trying to diagnose and eliminate this problem without a easy way out.
Ok the problem is once she updated the phone to lollipop she had all the common problems that come with it over time i have slowly eliminated them with factory resets and cache cleaning and such although i have one problem that not even verizon can figure out. The phone itself with occassionally and randomly just refuse to make or receive calls its a very odd problem because the phone will send and receive sms and mms just fine when this happens but when we try to dial out it just sits at dialing and never connects, when calls are dialed into the phone it will ring 5 times or so then go to voice mail or just go straight to voicemail altogether without ever ringing the s5 shows no sign of anyone ever trying to call at all no ringing no records nothing. Once in a blue moon it will ring 4 times on the dial in and then the s5 will start ringing around the 5th ring which is extremely long time IMO. This happens very randomly and in all different locations i have disabled call blocking and auto reject i have tried safe mode to only experience the same problems, i have factory reset several times. Verizon opened a ticket with there tier 2 techs and network development team to check out the issue they tell us everything is completely fine and theres nothing they can see wrong. But they do not deny the problem is there they just cant explain it. Now get this, This is the second phone that has done this to her Ther first one had the same problem and was warranty claimed this is the second phone and same exact issues. Im not sure what else i can do i am a very tech savy person and this one has got me stumped the only thing i can see thats odd for me is the phone has 3 Phone services running in the background But I believe this may have something to do with the Touchwiz Easy Or Regular Home UI althought im not sure why it would use seperate apps. Anyway any input would be helpful Thanks
I just wanted to mention an issue that my S8 started having after i upgraded to Oreo. I was unable to make or receive any calls. As soon as i tried to make a call, it immediately ended the call and any incoming call would go straight to voicemail. After playing around with settings, i disabled the Enhanced LTE option and i was able to start making calls again. This setting is only for HD Voice so its not a huge loss. I'm not sure if anyone else has run into this issue but I wanted to mention it to the community. I had tried to reset Network settings and cleared cache to not avail.
I should note, i have not tried to do a factory reset because i was hoping that would be a last resort so its possible that would fix the problem all together but I talked to the tech at the AT&T store and he said he wasn't aware of this issue. If anyone else runs into this issue, feel free to comment.

I'm in the same boat. Any chance you figured it out? I completed a reset and still have the issue.
