Answering calls lag (so annoying!!) - Desire General

Anyone having issues with the desire delay of about a second after you press the answer icon. I press it once, nothing happens, so I think I havent pressed it so I hit it again just as the button changes to "End call" cutting off the person calling you.
I`ve done it two days running now anyone else having this issue.

When I answer, I just pause before putting it to my ear.

There may be a small pause but I dont have any issues. Has this happened from day 1 or is it getting worse?
Maybe if its getting worse some apps are causing the Desire to lag, try turning the handset off and on, dont open any apps, wait 1 minute and get someone to call you to see if it makes a difference.

Happened since day one I think. have tried killing all non-critical apps and tried calling from my home phone and no difference , always some lag. But I also noticed its random. Tried about 10 times , sometimes its a 1 second delay, another was 2+secs.
Think this is why sometimes I`m pressing twice and cancelling the call.

happens to me also. had an interesting thing happening to me yesterday: after answering the call vibrate function still carried out through the call and it did not stop even after ending the call. i had to restart the device.

Post 2.3 OTA update phone lag issues?

I got the over the air update on sunday night. Everything on it seems fine but when i take a phone call, there seems to be some lag in hanging up. It shows the call connected for a few moments after pressing end call. Notification bar has enough time to flash green like the call is still in progress.
Also seen some small lag issues when dialing during a phone call (Checking bank balance)
Anyone else notice this?

Calls dropping?

So my phones having weird issues, I'm using CM9 and didn't find anything like i'm having.
Sometimes when I go to make a call, it will go past dialing and give me the call time and at like 5 seconds before i hear a ring it will drop. Like before the call goes out it will just drop, usually i will just try once or twice more and it wil work. As well i have been getting calls where it will ring once then stop like they just hung up.
Today i had a time where i couldn't get any calls to go out, i tried like 10 times then i restarted the phone and it worked. Anyone have any ideas or things to try?

Phone Call Sound Problems

Hello. Does anybody have an idea why there is no sound whenever I send/receive calls? Also, the UI/related app crashes whenever I do the same.
No problems when I uses SMS though, so I don't think it's a signal problem.

Maybe a theme issue?
Nope. Just reformatted the phone and did not install any theme/launcher apps
Same issue
I've been having the same issue and I have no idea why. Performed a factory reset. Tried running the phone in safe mode. It seems like it works briefly after a restart but then cuts out after a few minutes. I never had any issues like this before the update.
Problem for me goes as follows.
Receive phone call
Try to answer
Either the phone answers the call and there is no sound (mic or speaker) but otherwise acts normal or the phone refuses to answer the call and the "swipe up to answer" UI keeps reappearing. When the later happens the phone crashes and goes through a restart that takes longer than a normal one.
Make a phone call
No sound (mic or speaker)
The issues with the microphone seems to affect other parts of the system as well, such as ok Google and voice typing.
Speaker seems to work fine other wise
Putting the phone in safe mode seems to delay the problem sometimes.

Me too. Bumping in hopes of a fix.
Same. I'm running a custom ROM and haven't upgraded to 8.0 yet. Does the issue persist with 8.0? Google told me today to revert to stock and upgrade to see if that fixes it.

Same thing started happening for me yesterday!
I was sending a voice message on Whatsapp.
The msg was sent but no audio was recorder.
I received a call but there was no audio (both in & out)
I tried making a call and the same happened.
The "Phone" app would even hang after hangup and would crash. I get a white screen with the G logo and a loading bar beneath it, then it would start.
Starting the phone app is also sluggish.
If I make a call (and get no audio) I try to switch to loudspeaker and I could hear the other party but for a couple seconds then it's muted, then comes back for a couple seconds, and keeps doing it intermittently.
Sound from music app and videos works fine.
SOMETIMES after a reboot phone audio&mic would return but temporarely.
SOMETIMES when I try rebooting and it doesn't work, I try safe mode and it work (not all the time though)
SOMETIMES switching from LTE to WCDMA only fixes it temporarly.
This is really unpredictable.
I reverted back to a 7.1.2 stock. At first the issue persisted then it was fixed for a couple hours.
I updated back to O and audio worked for some time but after a few minutes, the issue returned.
Now I am on a clean stock install of O. without any apps installed. The audio comes back for a few minutes, then it's gone for hours.
Hopefully this thread will grab the attention of someone who might be able to help
Having the same issue on a regular Google Pixel. Also Google Assistant is not working using the "Ok Google" voice command and the phone app - answering and ending calls lag - same issue mic and speaker do not work. In Safe work, they work but on rebooting same issue persists.

bump - hoping someone has heard something somewhere.
Same here for my regular pixel, this is really annoyed. It just starts happening after almost 12 months since I got it.

I have been having these same issues with my phone. I noticed it happened after I downloaded the what's call app to make a WiFi call. I noticed another user had the problem after installing what's app to her phone. Could this somehow be the problem? I am not super tech savvy but I am convinced it is related to my downloading the what's call app. I have uninstalled the app. Still the problem remains. Any ideas? Thanks.
Has anyone that posted in this thread was able to resolve this issue? I also have this problem, I'm currently waiting for it to happen again so I can pull logcat but no idea what I should be looking for since I have no idea what can cause not being able to hear the caller so randomly.
I was originally suspecting V4A, but last night I flashed stock system img, did not install V4A and same issue occurred.

Pixel 2 XL Issues Dialer extremely slow & Deafening notification beeps during calls

Pixel 2 XL Issues Dialer extremely slow & Deafening notification beeps during calls
*Copy/pasted from the Pixel 2 forum. Whoops!*
Hi all,
I had a quick search on the forums but couldn't find anything related to this. I'm unsure if it's a problem with just the Pixel 2 XL or Android. I've installed all OTA updates and the phone is running 8.1.0. It had both of these errors prior to updating. I have also replaced the entire handset and tested again. Still occurring. I have a Pixel 2 also, which does NOT experience these issues. I'm also running stock, no root/roms. *edit* I went through Google support for both issues, they couldn't find any solutions. They suggested a factory reset and then replaced the handset.
The dialer:
Intermittent problem. Basically when you open the dialer or a contact and initiate a call, the app often freezes for an indeterminate amount of time. It could be 10 seconds it could be over a minute. Eventually it will move to the "call" screen and then freezes/lags again. Once more this can be any length of time up to a minute or more. All other apps work perfectly fine during this process. Eventually the call initiates and you can hear it ring, once in call everything behaves normally.
The notifications:
This one is simple. During a call receiving an SMS or other notification results in an electronic beep sound which plays at full volume. It does the same thing after the call ends. I'm not sure if it's using call or external speakers as the volume is so damn loud it doesn't matter. It legitimately causes me to throw the phone away from my ear and I cannot hear anything besides buzzing for 20 minutes. It actually hurts.
Nothing I do has stopped this except to turn on DND before I make or receive a call, which is useless. I read a few other threads about this being a new feature in 8.1.0 and "intentional". However I think those are referring to the call end beep, or notifications during a call that make the designated notification sound, not a deafening beep. The threads I read suggested removing third party apps and phone permissions, I used a brand new handset and the beeps still happened.
Please does anyone have a suggestion? I'll try anything at this point.
I have noticed a similar problem that has cropped up recently - I cant make consecutive calls. If I hang up from a call and then try to make another the phone sits there. The phone button animates but doesn't do anything. If I try 20 seconds later it will sit there for about 10 seconds and then make the call. If I wait about two or so minutes it will work. Incoming calls are different.. if I am in that "period" of time, the phone will ring and if I am not in the phone app - meaning the incoming call screen pops up - I can answer it. If its a heads up incoming call I cant answer it. I must turn the screen off and then back on to get to the full screen to answer it. I am on 17.0.186697879 which I believe is the latest.
I've had the delayed calling problem for almost 2 months. The problem also includes sometimes not being able to answer a call from the notification shade when the screen was already on. Toggling airplane mode alleviates the problem temporarily.
There's a lengthy thread in the OG pixel threads with the many users with the problem. Also a lengthy thread on one of the Google support threads. Someone there suggested it had something to do with the mlb at bat app. I think that has since been debunked. I haven't found a solution yet and Google hasn't made an official acknowledgement yet.
This issue suddenly appeared on my Pixel 2 couple of days ago. Tried all the hacks and solution, but even turning off all the knobs in the phone permissions screen didn't help.
I have android 8.1.0

Problems with voice to text.

anyone have a problem with voice to text? Every time i use it, it misses the first couple of words or screws it all up. VERY LAGGY Any way to fix this problem,??
I have noticed this and have no idea how to fix it, but I've learned to wait an extra second or two to start talking after hitting the microphone button, and it seems to work okay when I do that. Never noticed this behavior on other phones, I don't think.
What I have noticed on any other phone is that voice-to-text will sometimes insert the word 'oh' before a comma. Annoying. Tried the fixes I found online but the problem persists.
