Hi There!
Hope someone can help me as I did a few searches without any luck!
if I have a phone where both incoming and outgoing calls are completely blocked, and the phone is locked to a network, will unlocking the phone and changing the SIM fix the call barring problem as well?
Is it possible that the phone itself is blocked on all networks eg by IMEI or something?
Thanks!
Gimlee
PS. Thanks for an amazing and informative forum - I love the sticky's, makes things so much easier for a newb like me.

Hey everybody
So I've had my DHD on Vodafone since November. Since that time I've been having a recurring problem making out going calls as well as forwarding text messages and occasionally receiving calls.
Making Outgoing Calls: Whenever I try to make an outgoing call the phone will bleep and say 'Call ended'.. It does this alot at first it was across the board but tonight I seem to be able to call everyone apart from the person I actually need to call (typical).
Forwarding texts: I dont seem to be able to forward texts at all.. They get sent from my phone and it shows up as being sent but they are never received.
Receiving Calls: Less of a problem however every now and then people will try to call me and wont be able to get through.. Also sometimes the phone will cut out in the middle of calls.
Has anyone experienced problems like this before and if so what are the solutions??
I have tried switching the network settings and my wi fi is off and nothing has worked. I have also taken the phone apart and cleaned all of the contacts..
Phone already restored??
Sim Card tested in another phone, whether the card is OK??
Ask the provider to send you the right net configuration via sms??
only some ideas you can try....

Isn't that something you have to manage with your provider? Your phone will unlikely be monitoring someone elses phone network availability and thus polling constantly to the other number. I know some providers give you these possibilities (at least I had it once here in the Netherlands) by pressing a number and then hang up and then a call is buing set up between you and the other person as soon as he is available.
Or do you meen something else?

Hello ,
No provider issues , on galaxy S3 short 1 sec notification. But u have to glance into the display for that.
Is there no app that can enable a sound notification also on Anrdoid for calling somebody who is already in a call
so we can detect that we are in call waiting ??
Thank you
I have a GSM Galaxy S3 and I am using it with Straight talk (AT&T network) and I have an annoying problem that I don;t seem able to solve.
Every time I receive a call, the phone shows the phone number as +555 555 5555 rather than (555) 555 5555.
The addition of the + makes the phone unable to match the call with my contacts and when I try to call back, the phone thinks that I am making an international call that obviously cannot be completed.
Is this a Straight Talk issue or a phone related one?????
I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thank you,
Stefano

I understand this feeling, really uncomfortable. If it does not work, you can use the receive sms online service to temporarily subscribe to some online messaging services.
So I finally got my first Android device and I managed to set up my SIP accounts via SGN2's native SIP client. I can make/receive calls without a problem over WiFi and 3G - I'm happy with my unlimited calls
I'm a big Call/SMS Blocker fan. All my phones has an app installed that blocks ALL unwanted calls/SMS/MMS. So I was happy when I found out the N7100 has a built-in call blocker feature.
It does it's job, ok. BUT, it blocks ALL incoming SIP calls even though I set the settings to custom and added all my contacts with VOIP/SIP numbers to the 'Allowed' list.
The problem somehow lies in the way 'Blocking Mode' filters incoming calls.
All my SIP calls has this pattern [username]@[IP Address] - ex [email protected]
So, even though I already added the SIP numbers with the IP details in my contacts' 'Internet Call' field and the 'Allowed Contacts', the calls are still blocked. It appears only phone numbers aren't filtered out by the Blocking Mode
Is there any solution to this?
Thank you for your time and inputs
My SGN2 N7100 on stock firmware (no plans of rooting for the time being).
I'm guessing you've already verified that what the incoming number looks like matches what you have for their sip address?

Thank you for the reply.
Yes. I tried including all the details in my contact, from the default number to what it looks like when I receive a SIP call.
Normally SIP calls would show in the screen as: SIP[email protected]
The number is still blocked.
Interesting. I'm sorry I have no answers for, and I asked as I do not have any voip set up yet. I was suspecting your voip provider may have sent a base trunk address rather than the originator.
If you find a resolution, please let us know!

that might be your carrier. Who may not allow VOIP calls. e.g Skype does not let KaKaoTalk run voip calls on their 3g network etc etc

I was talking about the built in 'Blocking Mode' in the SGN2.
As stated in my initial post, I have no problems making/receiving calls over WiFi AND 3G.
The issue isn't network related. VOIP calls will go through just fine IF I DISABLE the Blocking Mode feature (i.e. allow all calls)
So, I have a Nexus 7 LTE with an AT&T Sim and I'm able to receive texts on the mobile number assigned to that sim. Unfortunately this is confusing some that think they can also call that number which leaves them waiting for an answer that never comes.
Does anyone know how to trigger the call forwarding to my Google Voice number (usually through **021*1234567890#) without having a dialer? If I root it and put in the stock dialer (or enable it? I heard it may be there but disabled) will I be able to dial the forwarding codes? I know I can't make calls with the dialer, but I don't know if that necessarily means the codes wouldn't work either.
Thanks!
Update/Correction.
The number only rings for some callers (VoIP callers?). For most people calling my data only number it just tells them that I'm not accepting calls at this time... which is a little better... maybe.
I imagine some people are going to think that means I've blocked them or whatever. Of well. I'll just have to re-educate people to use my Google Voice number as they bring it up.
