I have lineageos 14.1 and the default Phone app. When I call a number, I can't access the call pad. Also the 'on going call' option is missing from the top menu. I just uninstalled Should I answer? app and it must have messed something up. I tried reinstalling Phone but it didn't help.
Problem is with automated systems "press 1 to speak to... press 2 for ...." I can no longer access.

How exactly did you reinstalled it the phone? Did you wipe system and data and then flash rom along with gapps?
There was some setting that didn't have a value, in system preferences the default dialer app was set to "none". Changing it back to Phone fixed the problem.

Newbie here...... When I call in to check my voicemail, the system doesn't seem to recognize my key entries. Could I possibly have the wrong setting in the registry. I can make call just fine. I just can't enter any information. Any body know what's wrong??
Sometimes this is simply a matter of using long tones for key presses instead of short ones. Try going to Start/Settings/Phone and in the box labled Keypad select 'Long tones'. This actually worked for me when accessing many phone activated menus such as airlines, banks etc.
When my phone stars to ring sometimes I get the message: "device is busy. Call is being forwarded" This is not quoted, because I have Dutch WM6.1.
But I think it must be something like that in English
Anyway.. When I get this message, the call is forwarded to my voicemail.
This is very annoying, because I have to call back all the time..
Does anyone have a sollucion?
ty..
I think this means you have accidentally pressed the call end button which causes it to go to voicemail...
Have you checked the settings in system options and turned off the auto reject call option?

I can't remember exactly or check at the moment because I'm using a 6.5 rom. But I think you can access it by pressing the call accept button, then choosing options from the phone menu. Then that should bring up a tabbed menu, and its in there somewhere. There's definitely something there though as I remember changing it when I was using 6.1 last to get mine working fine.
In the services tab?
I disabled all forward call settings already.. No changes.
Hello. I got a nexus 4 2 weeks ago and after installing apps like skype and whatsapp and other things I sometimes get asked which app I would like to do a certain action. For example, if i go into contacts and press the message icon it asks if i want to use whatsapp, SMS, or skype.
Now, it did this for calls too, it asked me to choose between skype or regular phone, and I chose "always use" for regular phone. However, now I've changed my mind.
My question is, if you select "always use", is it possible to change the settings and let you choose which app you would like to do the action with? In this case I want to be able to choose between using skype or regular phone when I go into contacts and press on a number.
*Edit: I have tried deleting data and cache of skype, but no luck. pressing a number in my contacts still doesn't ask me to choose between skype or regular phone.
Edit 2: OK I found out thanks to a friend that i should clear defaults in phone. i got it now. This thread can be deleted, or locked for anyone else with similar issues.
Yes, go into Settings - Apps - All then click Phone and Contacts and all the ones you selected and then click clear cache and it will ask you again.
Sorry, not 'Clear Cache' its "Clear Defaults"
Settings>>App>>Click top right>>Reset App Preferences
i have BetaMax Dialer installed and up until about a week ago, when ever I went to make a call, a pop up would appear asking "complete action using" and then I could choose either BetaMax, Skype or the stock phone dialer.
Now for some reason, it doesn't do it anymore and goes straight to the stock dialer with no options popping up. I have reset to factory default 3 times now. Still, everything is greyed out under "Phone" in the Application Manager so no chance to "clear defaults.
I have even tried using other dialers trying to reset it somehow but no joy.
Anyone know whats going on or got any tips ?
I'm running the ok3 no bs rom, and I have root. I figured out my apn settings so sms and mms are working on my T-Mobile sim.I still have a couple of issues though.
1. How do I unlock band 4? I've seen a thread about it that says I need to activate a hidden service menu to do this. I followed the directions in that thread with no success. (E.g. change /efs/carrier/hiddenmenu from OFF to ON and reboot) every service menu code actually dials a number and gets me a recording saying it's not valid.
2. I've also run into a few problems with my touch tones not being recognized during calls. When I press the button I see the number in the dialer but the remote system does not recognize the key press. I've been looking for any kind of setting for this but have come up empty handed.
