This is happening to 2 people at work with stock Incredibles w/2.2. I have never experienced this on my phone which is rooted with stock 2.2 ROM.
You press Phone, either dial a number or click from the list, it starts to dial and then immediately disconnects. Rebooting the phone will correct it until the next time it fails (Usually once a week).
Tried using Task Killer on one of the phones but it didnt make a difference.. Can someone point me to a thread or help out? I can't seem to find this issue, or my keyword searching stinks
Does the screen go completely black and freeze up when this happens?
Nope, everything seems to work except the phone. I should problem check Phone Identity in About Phone when it happens I guess.
I'm surprised that there aren't more replies to this thread because 1 out of 3 DINCs at my work are doing it.

I've been using Cyanongen 7.0.3 for a couple of months now. Recently the phone is acting quite strange. It's constantly lockig up(I need to remove the battery to restart it). Has anyone else noticed this behavior? Can this be caused by an app that's installed?

I have noticed the same problem with every non-sense roms i have tried (oxygen, CM, Redux and MIUI). In my case it specially occurs when I used Spotify, It stops paying music and then force-close after that the rom gets very slow, cant restart the normal way either, have to pull out the battery...
I think I've found the problem. After uninstalling JuiceDefender the problem stopped(at least for now)

My Desire phone has been doing that since it was new - last January. When I make or receive a phone call, the screen locks so that I cannot use the keyboard for an automated answering system. Finally, I can never hang up. Pressing the power button sometimes shows the hang up button for about half a second.
I sent it to the HTC agent for repair and was told nothing was wrong with it!
I have rooted the phone, to see if I could change the settings controlling the phone, but so far have had no luck. I can't use the phone as a phone!!!!!
PS. At first, I uninstalled all the apps I had collected, but the problem continued. I have also reset the phone to factory settings, but still no improvement. I wonder how many users have this sort of problem.
I have had my own SGS2 since it came out and have had no issues at all. I got one for my gf and gave it to her a few days ago and she already has experienced some strange issues. The most important of those issues is that the phone randomly (and quite frequently) goes into silent mode. It happens in the middle of normal use or if the phone is just sitting on the table. Its definitely not a matter of accidentally hitting the volume button or something like that. This is an issue because she is missing all her calls and notifications. The phone is rooted and is running GB 2.3.5 ....Anyone have any idea how to fix this? any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Same here too .. I have tried so many roms to get rid of this problem ,,, but same
I thought I was just crazy! My phone does this all the time. Very annoying.

My phone has been doing that from day 1, I thought it must be somehow a changed setting while in my pocket (it it moving or something)...nice to know that it isn't just my phone
Yea I have no idea what it is ..strange. I don't know if her phone still has the problem. According to her it doesn't happen anymore but then again she has her phone on vibrate 99.9% of the time so I can't really know if it is still changing on its own
it is very annoying...I have missed important phone call because of it. I just did not think it was the phone doing it on its own (strange issue for a phone to have). I don't think I have heard of any other phone doing such a thing.
Did you find any solution to this annoyance? I am facing this for quite sometime and don't have a clue on how to fix this

I wanted to get the opinion of the devs who make all of the ROMS for this device. Below is my experience and my theory:
I have had the phantom soft key issue on every incarnation of the GSII software. I un rooted and went all the way back to the beginning. I used each rom version till the issue occurred, then I let the phone update to the next ROM version and repeated the process. Every single un rooted update had the same issue and then every single Rooted ROM all ROMS for the ET4G were tried and the issue occurred.
Strange part is it came out of nowhere. I have had and have been flashing for an entire year without issue and one day all of a sudden... BOOM. I don't think it is as simple as the signal issue. I think it has to do with flashing as well. Unless this is happening to someone who has never rooted their device, I think something in the roms we flash trigger the issue which is related to signal.
Has anyone known anyone who has never rooted their device and has had the issue? By the way, the store gave me a brand new factory OEM screen and the issue still occurs.

Right outta the box before rooting it?
I personally think its hardware related with, either over time the screen moving and the heating up of the device causing phantom button presses... this only recently started happening to me and after i wipe screen with cloth while its turned off it goes away. for awhile... idk haha
I disabled the hardware capacitive keys and use the software on screen buttons. Problem solved

As said above, I had this issue on Gingerbread..out the box, no root. It'd press menu by itself lol, always gave me WTF moments. I'm on ICS now, and no problems at all.
Crazy, ok. Well I got the answers I was looking for. Thank you everyone for your info. Note 2, here I come.
Yup, happens here too. Menu key goes nuts when charging.

Go to system/usr/keylayout

# comment out menu and search keys. Save file and Set permissions.
Then head over to the play store and get Button Savior. I paid for the advanced features and am very happy. Have to keep the phone until may 2013, sprint claims liquid damage so no replacement.
Button Savior on screen hidden pop up menu buttons works great and no more phantom presses menu or search pop ups ever again! 
Hello.
I have 2 years old Desire HD. I installed several custom roms over last years but lately I have major problem. My phone application is crashing. Situation is the same every time - I try to call somebody, i chose a name and hit a call button. Everything seems to be ok but i don't get any signal at all. After 1 minute application is closing in the same way it would after hitting "end call" button, or if i would not get connection. Basicly I cant call anybody, everything else is working grate. Also when that happens i tried to call my phone from other number, on my other phone I did get a signal and everything but my DHD was behaving like nobody was calling me. My girlfriend also told me that she was calling me on some ocassions, I wasnt picking up but ofcourse i did not get any info on missed calls or anything.
After reset all is working as normal, untill next problem.
I have tryed PAC-man AIO by CedArctic, JellyTime and Virtuous Quattro - the same problem.
What could be the reason for that? Any sollutions?

Might be a Problem with your radio. try flashing different radios.. also the roms that you are using are still in beta stages. Its better to use Stable roms. i use jellytime r10. its near stable
Been there done that i used several diferent radios and jellytime r9, r10. Same problem. Im starting to think it's hardware...

Hi everyone,
I am having an odd issue. Regardless of the rom I use, very often when either I make a call or receive a call my screen will go black as soon as I answer it or it connects.
The problem though is, i Can't get the screen to go back on until the call disconnects. If I do get the screen to go on by mashing the buttons, the second I get back to the screen that shows the call it goes black again.
Also, at the same time when this happens, people cant hear me, it sounds like I'm in a tunnel according to them. I literally have to scream. The only way I can take call normally is hope it doesnt go black instantly and switch it to speaker phone. Then it works fine.
I am currently running carbon 4.4.2, but its not a rom issue in my opinion as this was happening when I ran Liquid and paranoid.
Any ideas, its getting to the point where its getting very annoying.
Thanks again!
I'd Odin to stock.
And start customizing my phone 1 step at a time to see if something I had running was causing the problem.
