[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.

I can't make any call or receive calls on Nexus 4

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my Nexus 4. He works very well, everything is fine, but i can't make any call, or send SMS. The signal is full, I'm on H+ with the data, i can go the internet without being on wifi, but i can't make a call, when i make a call, it instantly end the call. I tried everything, i rooted it, I install CM 10.1, i change the radio so many times but still nothing. I thought it has something to do with the provider and i change it but it still don't work. Can anybody help me pleasee. I beg you, haha. :crying:
Anyway, thanks for the help, and sorry for my english.

I got the same problem

Try to turn off the data transmission

I fixed it by going into Apps, clicking on the menu and choosing Reset App Preferences. Next time I made a call the menu came up to choose Phone or Viber, chose Phone and it worked fine. Repeated and set to Phone Always.

[Help?]Verizon S5 - Can't Receive or Make calls.

I'm having a constant problem with my phone. It seems like any time I leave the house and return, I'm unable to make or receive calls, until I reboot or switch airplane mode on/off. I still receive and send text/mms just fine, it's only calls. Anyone experience anything similar or have any ideas what may be going on? I have a constant 3-4 bar LTE signal.
Sent from my SM-G900V using XDA Free mobile app

Same problem
I am also experiencing this problem. I can send texts and otherwise use data to connect to websites and such, but cannot make or receive calls. When someone calls me, it goes straight to voicemail. When I make a call it does not even start ringing, or beep at the start of a call to indicate the connection.

I had this issue when i first got my phone. i had to call verizon and they updated something on their side and reset a few things.

Part of me thinks this wouldn't be a bad thing to have, just in case that pesky Ex decides today is the day she wants to call you. lolz

Nothing Worked
If anyone else is facing this problem, I would like to say that all Verizon could do was send me a refurbished phone. Even after a factory reset and resetting the network (on their end) worked. I hope this problem doesn't affect too many people.

Same issue - S5 will not make/recv calls

I'm now having this problem with my 2-week-old S5. Has anyone found a resolution?

I had an issue with my S5 connecting to 4GLTE (Because of something stupid I did playing around). Chat give Verizon a ring (or chat with them on their website) and they will have you do the following:
1. Turn off WiFi.
2. Power down your phone
3. They will resync the signal (and do other secret things)
4. Power up your phone.
5. Your phone will reconnect to 4GLTE, the radio will then recycle, then connect back.
I've had zero issues since I did this a few days ago. Wouldn't hurt to try. Have your IMEI number ready for them incase they need it.

Solution, sort of

Didn't work for me unfortunately. I ended up going back to Costco and swapping it out for a new one. Back in business....for now. Thanks for the help.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S5, 4G LTE, Verizon it can make calls and send text fine the problem is that it cannot receive calls and text. Grateful your assistance in resolving this issue.

I haven't had the issue for a while but I had to get a new phone from Verizon .

[Q] Not answering incoming call - galaxy s5 - 4.4 kitkat

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.

No calling, only SMS/data/wifi working on any ROM and/or stock

I've been using AICP for a while (Marshmallow), but haven't done an update in a while. By a while, I mean that I don't think I've flashed anything in weeks. Suddenly, I cannot make or receive calls today. Yesterday I made a number of calls just fine. I checked all the standard possible causes, dialer apps, default apps for phone, etc. After no success, I decided to flash back to stock.
Now I'm on stock 6.0. Same problem, cannot make calls. All I get is a screen which says "dialing" until it makes a tone sound and hangs up, never rings anyone. My phone never rings or responds when other people call. I do have full bars and service, and my APN is set up properly with AT&T in the USA. SMS and Data work fine, and so does WiFi. No other problems at all with the phone. I've had it for about a year and a half with no real hardware issues other than a loose charging port. No drops, no cracked screen or anything.
I'm wondering if anybody has a clue about what the problem with my phone is. I'm willing to generate and provide logs if there's a way to do that which could show the issue.
EDIT1: Derp, just tried the SIM in my girlfriend's phone. Seems to by my sim card. I'll go to AT&T tomorrow and report back here if the issue is fixed.
