Keep missing calls on my Pro2 - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hey, I bought my touch pro2 2 months ago and i keep missing calls from time to time. The phone is next to me on the table, i have full signal and i just missed 2 calls And it happens from time to time buts enough to bother. For 2 months i missed about 15 calls. I'm using the original ROM from HTC with WM6.5. Any suggestions?!

Are you on AT&T? If so, I've seen the same thing and it's probably an AT&T network issue rather than a phone problem.
Occasionally, the same thing happens to me, and it hasn't been just on the Tilt2. It looks like when there's too much traffic on the network, calls get sent immediately to voicemail without the phone even ringing.

We're (me and lots of friends) having the same problem with T-Mobile for the last few weeks. I think it might be related to excessive use of 3G in the network.

No, guys. I use unbranded phone, im from Bulgaria. Strangly I've used Nokia 5800 for 6-7 months and never ever had that problem. My sister now uses the phone and never happened either. I looked in the settings of the phone and now I'm testing whether the problem will be solved if i choose the network and tha band manualy, not in automatic mode. So far so good but I''ll post the result after 2 or 3 days because the problem occurs from time to time.

Well after i set the band and network manualy (not in automatic mode as default) I haven't missed a single call. So I think this is a possible solution for now.

[Q] 2G Signal only, enabling 3G drops signal totally.

Hi everyone,
I have a generic unlocked desire 2.2, unrooted, as standard as they come and connected to Orange.
When I run on GSM only mode in network settings my phone is fine...
BUT..
Enable WCDMA or WCDMA auto mode.... and it will connect to 3G for about 10/20 secs then drop the whole lot, "emergency calls only" is all I can get.
I live in town with full 3G,and have tried at my girlfriends 100 miles away too. This has been going on for about 3 weeks, and so far I have.......
Hard reset a couple of times....
Had a new SIM from Orange...
Tried a different SIM (O2) in my phone - which works perfectly, sat browsing on H for about half an hour or more with no problem.
Tried my SIM in a different phone (Touch Pro) - works perfectly as well! 3G and browsing internet all fine.
So - Orange say its the handset.... and I'm not sure their 2nd level tech really exist, cos I've never got to speak to them or had the promised callback!
and HTC reckon its a network issue.
I can see both sides, but that doesnt help when your stuck in the middle with sloooooow internet.
The only other thing I can think is that Orange dont like the fact I'm on unlimited data and using it, I hit about 900mb a month normally and 2Gb in Nov when my home broadband died for about a week. perhaps they have blocked my handset from 3G? If so they havent told me though! I have one of the panther tariffs from mid last year which were "unlimited".
Any suggestions would be very appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Chris
Sounds strange indeed......
Theoreticly speaking, they could have placed some sort of a limit on your account to reduce the load on their network, but It'll be hard to prove. (Maybe you know someone who works there???)
You can look for your plan's contract (or ask them to fax it to you) - maybe it states the minimal speed of connection....
Threaten to disconnect if your speed does not improve..... Realy can't think of anything else.
EDIT:
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10865272&postcount=5
Thanks,
I have tried all the options in that menu with no success.
Eventually last night I got orange 2nd level tech who was equally confused and could only suggest a radio version conflict with my handset and network.
Anyway they gave me a fault code which CPW (I purchased from mobiles.co.uk) looked at and glazed over.
I have called HTC direct now and they are having it in for warranty repair. 10 days with my old touch pro... how bad can i be?
Wouldnt surprise me if they send it back NFF........
fingers crossed!
EDIT: THE TOUCH PRO IS AWFUL!

missed calls, phone never rings

So my wife's captivate glide seems to have this problem:
- her glide (everything is stock) often never rings when someone calls her. No missed call notification, just a voicemail if the person decides to leave one.
-yesterday at home I called her phone from both my cell (motorola Atrix, HSDPA) and landline...no ring. Immediately afterwards from my landline to my Atrix, phone rings. Signal strength is around -70dBm for both the Glide and Atrix. I turned on airplane mode on the glide and then off. Called again from our landline and the phone rings on the glide.
Is it the cell tower? phone?
First thing - is the ringer volume on?
ringer volume is on...the glide was in front of me while I was dialing it from our landline or from my Atrix. The glide did not pop up the incoming call screen or ring until I turned on/off airplane mode, which is not a suitable workaround.
cell signal strength from my atrix shows -83 to -91 dBm. cell tower is ~488m away (using the open signal app)
I get this too sometimes.
Could never figure out why if it's hardware or software.
Anyone else have this issue?
I don't have this issue but I never receive calls and when I do it rings
-sent from my insanely awesome captivate glide-
my dads phone (a basic nokia on at&t) does this on occasion the phone has to be rebooted & it works fine. it happens after he goes to their summer home (300 miles away & in a rural area w/ LOTS of at&t dead spots). it does appear to be a tower/roaming type thing.
Get a new sim card....

I've summed this up as an AT&T issue. Have been with them since the Cingular days and every phone I've ever had with them has exhibited this behavior. Making the switch to T-Mobile now that I can get an unlimited everything plan for $60/month

Thing is for when I did my test, my phone (Atrix) got the incoming call from our landline and my wife's phone (Glide) did not. Both have the same band support, maybe the Glide was on a different band?
My wife's phone has the same problem!
My wife's phone has the same problem! She complains about it all the time, and I have no idea what to do. Everything is stock.
It regularly doesn't ring. Like more than twice chunks of time a week.
I do notice that the Glide goes from HSPA to UMTS to HSDPA (in Status->Mobile Network Type) when I enable and then disable airplane mode. The Atrix stays on HSPA when I enable and then disable airplane mode.
I think when the Glide was not receiving calls it was in UMTS. Atrix was in HSPA.
I know someone else with a Blackberry on AT&T that has this problem sometimes. My Glide on AT&T had this problem the other day. I think it's a network thing.
At least if you use Google Voice for voicemails you will always get an e-mail that you missed a call even when the phone doesn't even show a missed call and the caller doesn't leave a voicemail.
Can any of you follow up on this? Did you ever get the problem solved? Did switching phones or SIMs help?
I'm collecting info on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779654 so we can assess the extent of this issue.
Not just an AT&T problem, it happens to me on Rogers in Canada. It happened to me just earlier today.
Mine has periods of time where it will do this, maybe an afternoon or a full day, then it goes away. Not often maybe once every couple of months. I suspect it is the carrier.

I had the same problem and for me, I found that "viper" program is causing it... It takes hold of the phone functionality and prevents the android phone app from triggering the ring and lighting the screen ... I unistalled it and every thing is back to noramal :good:
Me and the Mrs have the same problem all the time. There is no telling how many calls we miss.

I'm with Lookin4Troubleon this one and think this is an AT&T issue (who I have also been with since Cingular).
New Motorola Atrix HD, working fine, left on a desk in a well serviced area having never left range of the tower to which it is connected. After a period of time although the phone shows full bars and a 4G connection, when a call is dialed from the phone it realizes that it is not on any network and re-initializes it's network connection, going through the various icons and network types until it gets to 4G and then the call goes out. While the phone is in that limbo state (full bars and 4G icon but not actually connected to the network) incoming calls go straight to voice-mail and no alerts for missed calls or voice mails are sent to the phone... until the process of making an outgoing call from the phone forces it to re-find the network - then incoming calls and voice mail alerts function... until the next instance. This happens several times a day and I have been unable to logically connect the problem it to any activity starting at the phone.
In the early days of 3G this used to happen a lot because the phones (referring to Motorola Razer V3xx) were unable to cleanly release a tower going out of range and attach to a tower coming into range as you traveled. Compounding the problem was the fact that the phones would not fall back on a different network band as they should have when the 3G connections were bad... because bad 3G connections were not being detected by the phone.
Same sh!t, different day! The new generation of 4G phones on AT&T are as bad as ever at falling back to the older network type when needed AND somehow the combination of AT&T and Motorola have managed to recreate this problem on stationary phones in good coverage areas. GOOD GRIEF.
Working my way through some tech levels at Motorola and AT&T. I've always suspected that this has to do with the phone not properly switching between the various networks it uses for calls and data, and to my amazement AT&T leaned towards blaming their own service issues along those very lines of thought. They seem to be having issues managing their 4G LTE stuff. If their next round of escalation does not find an answer I'm going to try forcing WCDMA connection (4G without LTE) to see if the issue relates to the toggle off/on of the LTE component. The LTE indicator is on for data and off for calls and there is a brief moment where the signal dips to zero bars during the transition. The 2 screenshots below show network state during a "4G" call and after call has ended. Perhaps this is where the problem lies. For anyone interested in testing this way, you can use LTE Setting by Ryo Ueshima. Even though that app was developed for Sony Xperia I've used to to test forcing of GSM/Edge and 4G (no LTE) on my Atrix HD. Resets after restart of phone and perhaps at other times, and may behave differently on different providers - also there are some buttons in that app which you don't want to click on without first noting the default value.

calls are disconnected after few minutes

hi all,
stock 551ML no root, the calls running on SIM1 (4G) gets disconnected after 5/10 minutes. i suddenly see the radio bars disappearing, i can't hear anymore the called party, and then the call drops. Tried with 2 different carriers on SIM1. The phone is always enabled with 2 SIM's, but on the second one (whatever the carrier is) there's no such problem. I think this phone has large issues when dealing with 2G/3G/4G swap, signal quality on SIM1 is terrible (tested in comparison with wife's iphone6+ with same carrier same location) and often i lose signal on SIM1. Definitely not a work phone in this way. any idea? can a full reset improve the situation?
Please ensure firmware is updated to latest version. Next please try performing a hardware reset including cache wipe partition. http://www.asus.com/us/support/FAQ/1011956/
If the problem continues then it may be a hardware issue with the SIM slot and will require RMA service.
Sincerely
ASUS_USA
[email protected]
after few weeks i can say more about this issue, on SIM1 the 4G slot. (stock phone updated and wiped completely)
1) carrier signal reception has now slightly improved with .59 and .63 update
2) problems on switching from 4G to 3G still there, when 4G signal is poor the phone is not able to detect it, and tries and tries and tries sending data to nowhere. after a minute or so, switch to 3G happens and i got network connectivity again
3) comparison with iphone6+, samsungS5 and sonyZ3 (same network, same location) is still terrible, while i got no network, iphone does and loads the pages, slowly but it loads the full page. i think here is the price difference between the two -> antenna, radio, optimized software for any signal condition
4) under bad (bad from a 551ML point of view) signal conditions the battery drains a lot more faster, and that's fine but at least i would like to use the phone, to receive calls, messages, whatsapp and so on.
5) during a call on SIM1, it still happens that signal disappear and i the call is dropped, less frequently than i had before .59 update, but still happens.
6) i'm calling using SIM2 BTW, SIM2 on 2G has no issues.
i will be soon able to compare with honor7 (it should have a very good optimization on the radio part) and let you know.
bye
I am on AT&T in the US and having a similar problem and hoping someone can help except for me it is SIM 2 that is the problem and for me it is at home. Last night I was on a call that kept dropping, and it was not a good thing at all and I had to end the call. I pretty much cannot sustain SIM 2 calls in my house but SIM 2 elsewhere is okay; calls on SIM 1 are perfectly fine and with my previous phones (Note 3, iPhone, Windows Lumia 1520) no reception problem history ever at all. So this clearly is a device issue and not an AT&T issue as I get good coverage in my house. I had two phones up until a month ago when I opted to consolidate by getting the ZF2.SIM1 is perfectly fine most of the time-I've never dropped a call although a couple times I have to say I've not heard as well for a moment as I could, so I question if my house and the Zenfone2 are a good match, although that is really a weird thing as I live in a major suburban metro area that is not a coverage problem in any way shape or form with any dead spot problems, so I am wondering if something is wrong with my hardware and I need to exchange my phone. I'm going to have to pop my SIM 1 back into my Note 3 in the interim and forward calls on my second line in the interim in the meantime if that's the case . (my windows phone takes a nano SIM) and send my ZF2 back for an exchange Should I do a hard reset? Why would my house be a problem? It's not a dead spot area or remote or anything like that. I really like this phone already got a new SIM 2 card once before when I had problems at first but it seemed to be better until I then tried to make a c all yesterday and it wouldn't work.Could my phone be defective? Hard reset?? My software is up to date.

After latest updates and various test i can say that signal coverage and battery life has been improved so much. Thanks a lot asus, it's a pleasure to work with this phone now. Keep doing the same good job!

Glad to hear things worked out for you. My situation didn't work out. I just returned the Zenfone yesterday. I had gotten the replacement phone through ASUS, still replaced yet another SIM card, and the problem with my SIM 2 persisted and got even worse. For me, the SIM slot being 2G did turn out to be the destructive feature of the device. My area is too upgraded for it apparently. You're the only other person I've come across that has referenced SIM 2 usage to me, so I get the sense that most people are just using the ZF2 as a single SIM and don't have a second phone line or data line. Therefore I can understand people being happy overall as it's a decent device for a single SIM user. You are lucky that your SIM 2 coverage is good everywhere. Mine was good in some areas but certainly not in and around my house and there my SIM 2 was unable to sustain phone calls. I didn't care about data-I only wanted phone calls but I couldn't do calls even.I had no cellular connection and my SIM 2 would X out and drop off all the time.
I never had a problem with SIM 1. I always got calls just fine and I found that ASUS always provided updates and I noticed changes in battery life. I was pleased in every other regard but the very purpose that I bought the phone for -to be able to get calls to both my phone lines. I do think ASUS dropped the ball with the 2G slot and need to make their next model with both slots supporting LTE. They me might get me back as a customer if they do.

It looks like I am not the only one who has the sim 2 signal issue. My phone has this issue from day one, the signal of sim 2 just comes and goes all the time. Software update doesn't help at all. I've also tried putting a new sim card, but still have the same problem. I think this is a hardware issue.

random loss of signal

I have a 128gb pixel XL with Verizon, which I purchased through verizon as well. Randomly at times just as I'm going to place a call it will start ringing and then disconnect and it will show loss of signal. This has also happened while I was on a call. I'm on the latest firmware as well. Has any body else ran into this issue?
I ran into this last night. I'm a sprint customer with pixel xl ordered from Google. I am on V software. It could just be the fact it's only connected to one 4g band which has low strength in the area we were at during the drop times. Mine hasn't done it since last night might have been in a dead zone
Yes, this has happened many, many times to me. I have a replacement coming that hopefully will take care of it.

For me its switching from band 13 to band 4.
I don't have this issue at all on TMO but in my area (Chicago) TMO is exclusively band 4. So this would lend some support to the possibility that this is happening when switching bands as I don't ever switch bands and don't have the issue (3 different Pixel devices that I've used since launch and none have exhibited this behavior).
I never had this issue on my Pixel XL, but then when I switched to the Pixel it would drop every single call I made and take 2-3 minutes to get a signal again. This was using the Verizon SIM card it came with. I then got a different SIM card and while it hasn't dropped a call since, I still notice that randomly throughout the day it loses signal where I have never lost signal before. I then wait 2-3 minutes and all of a sudden, it's back to strong LTE signal.
I'm on the fence about RMA'ing it. Anyone have any thoughts on whether or not this is a software or hardware issue? I don't want to be stuck with this problem.
-Collin-
Any resolution to this yet? I've tried swapping the sim to no avail. Running custom kernel and pure Nexus.
I'm on Project FI and sometimes the phone would switch to T-Mob for no apparent reason, which has extremely bad signal. While USC has over 100 times better signal, the phone for no apparent reason would switch to crap. That usually results in no calls being made at all. One trusty remedy is type in a dialer code to switch to next provider.

I also have the 128GB XL (quite black) from VZW. I had absolutely no issues with it until about 2 weeks ago. That's when I started experiencing this same issue. The signal bar goes clear and i lose service for a few moments. In watching the SIM status, I can see where the status will go from "In service" to "Radio off" to "Out of service" back to "In service." I also took screenshots of it doing this. The weird thing for me is that it only happens when I'm at work (I usually have full bars for reception). VZW seems quite baffled at this issue. They have replaced my phone twice. This 3rd phone is doing the exact same thing the other 2 were. I did a chat session with Google Support, and the 1st level tech I chatted with seemed unaware of the issue. My wife has the same phone (silver), and she hasn't experienced this issue yet at all. We were thinking about bringing her phone to my office to see if hers will display the same symptoms mine does here. Nobody else in my area has any reception issues. It's not a huge inconvenience while I'm at work since I have a desk phone. However, it is rather annoying when I cannot send a text or make/receive a call because my cellular radio is resetting itself constantly.
I couldn't post my screenshots since I have < 10 posts...

Question Pixel 6 Pro network keeps dropping randomly

Hi,
I never had any issue with the Pixel 6 Pro so far unlike other users but it all started few months ago when I noticed that the network kept dropping randomly, sometimes I used to get "no service" in an area where I used to get 4G at full speed. I did wait for the July update to solve the issue but it never did. Right now I am on the August update that has been released recently but I see no difference. I cannot do a smooth phone call on my data as the network keeps dropping continually. Sometimes I am on 4G, the second later I am on H. I did think that maybe it was the network I was on, Vodafone at that time, so I switched to EE, here in the UK it is considered to be the best one. Still I am facing the same issue, then I can assume it is the phone. I have tried to follow every guide I have found on the web, but nothing seems to work for me. It is annoying that when you need to get something on the phone I need to wait for the phone to go randomly back on 4G hoping that I will stay on it until I get what I need. I have attached the video that I have recorded where I am in the town centre, where I can easily get 5G but the phone keeps dropping the network.
I use ESIM as well, and I have the same issue with it.
Has anyone had the same issue? How can I solve it? Has anyone tried Android 13 Beta? Does it solve some bugs that we have right now on Android 12?
I am really annoyed because of this issue I am facing right now, I love this phone but I am seriously thinking to sell it due to this bug.
Your browser is not able to display this video.
Of all the stuff people complain about, this is the only problem I have. The signal on this phone is an absolute disgrace. I lose signal where I used to get it on my Droid X back in the day. Not sure how they screwed it up that bad, but they did LOL
Turn off the 4G on the second SIM card. I had the same issue.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Pixel6/comments/w8d1ba
In denmark, mine also randomly get the no service and no sim, but it is the imr registration ther fails and i beeing kicked off the celluar network. that is thanks to googles phone are not sold in your country, so you got the finger by google...
I will work with jailbreak and so on, but many apps will stop working,.
For now my pixel 6 pro, are living a sad life in its box, replaced by a oneplus 10 pro, without any of theese issues..
it is a bit sad, the pixel 6 pro is at god phone, but google giving pepole the finger, if you buy the phone somwhere google are not selling it, i dont get it.. it is basic stuff expecting to work, the culluar no mattewr where you buy it.
I have a P6Pro, also on EE in the UK.
I had spotty network performance in the early days, but after jumping to the 13 beta it's worked flawlessly.
Unsure if this is because of A13 or due to EE "doing work in my area" as they're often prone to doing.
I'd speak to EE first, then perhaps speak to Google via the support button in settings - they offered to swap my handset out for me (I didn't swap it out in the end).

When I was on Vodafone I had the same text from them, still after their ' solved ' the network issues, nothing really changed for me. My friend who is on EE in the area as me does not face any problem. I hope that A13 solves the issue. It is not normal that a 800£ phone struggles with the network this much

Yeah I have the same issue as you are reporting, three drops in city on the train on the way to work. Just get the exclamation mark, does not seem to self recover, I go into the SIM and disable it, then enable it again, and it instantly jumps to full 5G signal. I do note that it is more reliable for me when I turn off 5G completely, and just use 4G, then it drops back to 3G but doesn't completely stop.
I think majority of connectivity on this device is crap. WIFI is hit and miss. Bluetooth is atrocious, super slow to connect to some older devices, was fine when the phone first came out with early firmware. Pairing devices is hit and miss and also new pairing.

I do agree with you for the connectivity, it feels like they have picked random parts for the phone just to launch it as soon as they could. The money they spent on advertisement could have been spent better on the hardware.
Do you use dual sim? As I have read, the phone struggles more with two sims

I have only had one SIM acitvated at a time at this stage, was having issues with trying to activate my Samsung smart watch activating 4G, so switched to physical sim, for easier troubleshooting with other mobile devices, maybe physical SIM is worse in this device

I have attached the video that I have recorded where I am in the town centre, where I can easily get 5G but the phone keeps dropping the network.
I use ESIM as well, and I have the same issue with it.
Has anyone had the same issue? How can I solve it? Has anyone tried Android 13 Beta? Does it solve some bugs that we have right now on Android 12?
I am really annoyed because of this issue I am facing right now, I love this phone but I am seriously thinking to sell it due to this bug.

Yup had this. Ask for a replacement. Never happen again since the phone was replaced.

4G on the second sim is always off. I will try to test it turning the sim off and will let you know, thanks.

Update: the signal improve drastically on the main sim by keeping 2G or 3G on the eSIM but that generates a new problem, the eSIM drops the network on normal phone calls, it is not stable at all, if I call a number it rings after 10-15 seconds. I do not receive calls sometimes. It is just a mess.
Had the same problem, calls droppping or not being able to answer calls.
I had KPN as a physical sim and Simyo as a eSim.
I did resolve the issue, I understand this is not an actual "fix", but thought i'd mention it.
I changed providers from Simyo to Simpel, now I have Simpel as physical and KPN as eSim.
Since then no more problems also the option to turn on wifi calling showed up, so I think the p6p just wasn't playing nice with that specific provider.
I get random total drops of data and voice connection. If I hit Airplane mode on and off, it reconnects. Maybe the phone doesn't switch well between towers? I am on Google Fi.
Between the glitches and the lack of timely updates, and the abysmal battery life, I think this will be my last Pixel phone.
It barely lasts a full day with relatively light use, but if I use Maps and listen to Youtube (screen off) ad take photos in a new town, it dies within 6 hours or less. It has a great camera, but it's not useful for travel, because it dies so quickly.
I am having the same problem with my Google pixel 6 pro and it's been happening since I think the OS 11 certainly 12 and now 13. And I have AT&T service. But I can switch from my home Wi-Fi go outside of my car sit in my car for a while then all of a sudden the little! Comes up near the date of bars on my phone and use it after driving about 10 minutes or so it automatically will reconnect to the cell tower and get data. Sometimes I get well most of the time voicemails that people leave for me I don't get a notification until I reboot my phone. I actually put my phone in my right ear I can hear it loud and clear I switch it over to my left ear and it drops down by about 50% less volume I actually went and had a ear test done and they told me my hearing was perfect in both ears so I don't know what the hell it is with this phone but now I'd spent all this money going to the ear doctor thinking I was going deaf in one ear. Never had this kind of problems with my Note 4
I find in caernarfon I get good phone signal if i go to Bangor Tesco or sports direct in Bangor I get the exclamation point mark in phone signal and can't use it but signal has always been rubbish there I'm on ee
