The reason for this is when I am in the car and am using the bluetooth to answer the phone is in my case on my belt. When I get a call the screen comes on and even after the call is completed it stays on for 2 minutes. I then end up calling someone in the last called list if the screen bumps the case. I don't notice because my dumb car always wants to download the phonebook after every call and the stereo doesn't connect the outgoing call. Then someone tells me that they got 2 minutes of my music on their voicemail if they didn't answer. Ended up being very embarrassing when call went out and I made some comments that "someone" was not supposed to hear.
I looked with the advanced config tool but could not find anything.
Any ideas appreciated.
Tks
Perhaps stopping the screen from waking is too drastic. This means you effectively disable caller-id. I would suggest looking into installing a screenlock tool.
I am trying pocketshield for now. I was going to look at su2u but I was told that incoming calls still turned the screen on. Will see how this works for a few days.
Thanks
Well I tried pocketshield and it doesn't really do what I need. It still lets the damn phone call after I have hung up. It leaves the screen on and at the lasted called screen. bump the screen and it calls one of my last called list. Going to try Touchprolock now and see how that goes...
I have "locked" (AT&T stock ROM - using long press end key to lock) my device and then hit the power button momentarily.
This turns off the screen. When an incoming call hits, screens lights up. After call is terminated, screen turns off.

For some reason I can no longer answer an incoming call on my O2 Orbit (Artemis HTC3300)
The phone rings and pops up with call details. I hit green key or answer on screen and it just keeps ringing.
Has anyone else had this problem. The phone call is picked up by my service provider (O2) providing they leave a message. It is almost as if I have mistakenly set something to 'never answer'. The only thing I can think I changed was when I set to auto answer after 1 ring (when in the car) but I have reset this and unchecked it.
Help appreciated as it is useless as a phone now !
Thanks
Have you've tried to HARD-reset your phone, and tested it then?
Otherwise there might be an issue with your rom.
That's my 10 cents.
I have the same problem but not every time. 70% of the time a call comes in and I answer with either green hard button or screen button and the call just dies. I then end up with a missed call which I then have to return. My outgoing call usage has gone way up since I got this handset because I end up calling everyone back !
i have this same problem it will answer 70% of the time has anyone got any suggestions thanks
reflashing radio/updating radio may resolve this

I had this with Schaps 4.01 and now with a new rom (can't recall ATM but not sure it matters since this is happening with 2 different roms).
When I'm getting an incoming call, the phone starts ringing and immediately stops if I turn the thumbwheel. This is usually accidental as I'm pulling the phone out of the pocket, but very unnerving as I don't know whether I've hung up, answered, or still need to answer.
Is the wheel supposed to make a sound that's somehow canceling out the current sound being played?
Is this a setting that can be changed or a "feature"? Or a bug?
I believe this is a feature. like most phones, when you hit 'down' it silences the ring.
it's a good thing.
-bZj
Yup, it's a feature.
I use it quite often when people call that I don't want to talk to at the time.
This way they don't know that I am ignoring them, as it continuous "ringing" silently.
I am not aware of a way of turning this off.
So if you accidentally hit the scroll wheel, then just look at the screen to see if you've hung up or still need to answer? That usually solves it for me right there..
That is correct.
This is not even a noob question. Check your device manuals.
TP2 - WM 6.1 - T-Mobile
Self Dials last number and Voice commands turn on - Spooky
About a week ago I started noticing a microphone (ala Larry King) in my notification area at the top of my home page. I would come and go and make a small beep sound. Finally realized it must be voice commands. Well I keep turning voice commands off but they keep turning on. I have loaded no new software in the last week. I have never used voice comamnds.
Also about a week ago - and it is getting worse - after making a phone call and hanging up, my TP2 will start dialing the last phone number out of nowhere. It usually happens when I am on my home screen and I now move the phone. TP2 is my first touch phone and I have always had a lot of fat finger dials. I always assumed it was something that I did. But now out of nowhere, I am on the home screen, the phone starts to dial. If I pick the phone up and shake it, it will start to dial. this will happen a couple of times and then it stops. thinking that it might be related to the voice commands, but not sure.
Any help or ideas?
OK, still baffled. I do have a voice mail notification and voice commands are turned off. If I pick up my phone kind of rough and shake it a bit it starts to dial my last phone call consistently now.
Please someone help me. My friends are hating me.
OK, so it is definately related to having the voice mail notification. If the voice mail notification is present, then picking up my phone, kind of like tossing it in the air a couple of inches and catching it, will make it start to dial my last call. Once I listen to the voice message (and the notificaiton is no longer there), picking up the phone roughly does not make it dial.
I do remember that about 10 days ago I uninstalled T-Mobile visual voice mail. Then I kept getting a text message and had to call T-Mobile to have them do something on their end.
Still I need help to understand how to stop it.
yea my phone was doing the same thing recently but it was only when i had it plugged up to my car charger. I assumed it had something to do with the charger but im not sure if thats the real problem
It may be that mine only does it when it is plugged to charge also. At work, where I have really begun to notice it, my phone is always plugged into a split that has a charger and headphones.
Sounds like your talk/phone button is getting stuck. On most roms if you press and hold it it initiates voice comm. Pressed once brings up dial pad, twice calls the last number, press and hold is voice comm. So most likely its the hardware. Either that or paranormal activity. Set up a camera to catch it in the act.
I was starting to wonder if it was hardware, because if I shake it it dials. The phone button getting stuck makes sense. I did not know that click twice would dial last number and click and hold would turn on voice commands. Thanks for the info - exactly what i was looking for. Luckily I bought additional coverage (I have a six year old that likes to play games on my phone). Love the keyboard of the TP2, but would really like to get an android os. We will see.
Thanks again.
my issue calling say customer support placing the phone on speaker while on hold and the screen turns off requiring me to use the lock/power button. Well I really like and have become accustomed to using the power button to end calls. (When its not activated i have forgot to hang up on voice mails before and left 15 min voice mails of basically pocket dialing sounds.
So is their a way to set the screen timeout for the phone to just not close while connected? I have set my screen time for 10 min and it still closes while calling in about a minute. Now this is only of course a speaker phone problem as with such services you need the keypad available.
So what i do is instead of getting to simply wait on hold with no problems on speaker waiting until i hear something i have to at least every 30 sec to 1 min activate the screen i normally keep pushing the keypad button to open and close it to keep from being cut off.
Now is their any way I can have my cake and eat it too. Basically i don't want to turn off "end call with power button" but i suppose i can disable it before i make such a call.
Also i am kinda rom searching, the only thing i need is call recording as I have the legal need for it currently. I know several roms support it but not all of them as I am no dev not by a mile all i can do it love the stuff you devs do for me and i appreciate it :highfive: especially the guys that dev roms and such only for donations with no play store revenue.
I bet halo or something like it will get into android soon i think its better than Samsung's multi-window for a phone and multi-window is only good on a tablet (although i dont recall a tablet with it..)
Thanks in Advance

That's weird, I did never face this issue but my A2L is relatively new (1 week only).
I'll try to phone to my own A2L using different devices to see if I face this issue.

Yes, it is very weird and annoying. Not happens every time, but sometimes... ?
This happened to me yesterday for the first time, but I thought that was a problem of the person that was calling me.
It was a number I didn't have in my contacts, and after the bug I immediately called back that number, but it was not available.
I thought the person that was calling me had a very low battery charge and while calling me his phone turned off, causing the bug (because immediately after the bug it was unavailable).
To this date I still did not have this problem.
Me too, i cant answer and reject calls when i upgrade to android pie
Solved: Screen not turning on with incoming calls
Step 1: Go to Dialer or Phone app settings. To do so, you can either go to main settings, then open ‘Apps’, and then scroll down to Dialer or Phone App.
You can also access App Info page by long pressing the app icon, and then tapping the App info option or the small ‘i’ icon in the corner.
Step 2: Now select “App notifications” option and turn it "on"
Step 3: Now if App notifications are turned off, your display won’t wake up when someone calls you. Also if only the “Incoming calls” permission is off, your screen will not light up with incoming calls. Make sure required permissions are turned on and your issue will be fixed.
Xiaomi Mi 2 Lite. I cannot get incoming calls to show on my screen, so I can't answer. Tried switching notifications off and on again, tried forcing stop. Two days ago I did a factory reset and was OK for 2 days. I think this is since latest Android update about a 10 days ago.
Call answer bug
I have similar issue on Mi A1, been going for a while. Sometimes, call comes in, the answer key cannot pick and cannot reject the call. This happened after a certain update I just dont know which. I have noticed that this mostly happens at some particular GSM antennas, sometimes, just by moving away from that antenna (that's when in a car) solves the problem. But as long as I remained in that location at that time, i cannot pick or reject calls, I also can't make calls, I get the promt, network problem, even though the service bars r showing. And in some cases the people calling will tell me, that calls to me are not going through.
This is driving me nuts. When I get a phone call I get a bar at the top of the screen with two buttone, one saying Decline and the other sayng Answer. I can tap on it like a demented woodpecker, but nothing happens. If Itry to swipe it, the two buttons just disappear into a void and the phone keeps ringing with no way to answer. Very, very occasionally I get the normal notification that I can swipe to answer, but I have to phone nearly everybody back.
