[Q] Phone calls crashing friend's phone app - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, here's my weird thing.
I recently switched my Droid Incredible to Synergy's GingerSense phone mod. When I did that, any call I place to my roommate's cell phone crashes his phone app and kicks him off the 3G network for a few moments.
Well, I figured this was some weird ROM issue, and I changed ROMs to the HTC Desirable rom. That didn't help. I've tried reprogramming my phone by calling *228. None of this helps.
This does not happen to anyone else that I call. He's currently using Synergy's GingerSense mod for the HTC Thunderbolt. I am the only person whose calls crash his phone apk.
What the heck is doing this?

Id say its his rom not yours. I dont see how your rom calling him would make his phone crash, I dont think thats possible.

I agree, but it would be pretty bad ass if possible. I'd be calling everyone, then.

Wah Wah...here it is.
Maybe your threads are being deleted because they're poorly written and whiney. Take 2 seconds, maybe use spellcheck, then click submit. It's not that difficult.
And as an aside, I've removed that apk from my stock rooted rom, and haven't experienced the aforementioned problem.

I do that all the time with my family and clients, and so far I don't have any problems like you described. Honestly I tried that last night with 2 different ROMS, Phantom, and Juggernaut, and no problems at all with setting somebody for hold and call somebody else.
it could possibly be a problem with the default phone.apk, and most devs just use a different apk for the dialer app, bypassing the problem. Or it's just not an issue.
we need more confirmation
because i ran a test on my own phone and it doesn't drop calls
when i call myself from a land line, and then from another cellphone or another land line i can swap between the 2 calls just fine
to me it sounds more like a reception problem, or user error, cancelling the calls by accident?
It happened with me, so i installed CWM and rooted the phone. Still on stock ROM i removed a bunch of T-Mobile apps including Name ID. After one of the members posted this issue here and i tested and got the same result. Finally after installing the Name ID app i was able to do multi calling. So i do not know why this is not same for everyone.

this only happens when you remove the caller id.apk from the system,also most of the roms dont have this app included so for somenof us installing a new rom its uselesss. even if yoy flsh the zip founded under development(bloafreee) you will get the same issue
The claim you make in this thread is so far off base. The apk your talking about is bloatware and is no way needed to make the phone operate correctly. As I said when you suggested this in the rom thread, I've never had this problem. And as far as I can tell neither has anyone but you.
Sounds like your device is to blame

[Q] Phone Doesn't Ring When Receiving A Call

Hey Everyone! So I'm having this problem where my phone will NOT ring or show that someone is even calling. The only way I found out that someone called me is when they text me asking why I didn't answer them. Well, my simple answer (that people are starting to not believe) is that my phone didn't even show that someone was calling... This wasn't so much an issue before because they could always text me if they needed to get a hold of me. But now after to applying to many places for a job, I kinda need it to ring. I also have another issue and that is that texts will not receive either. The only way I can get them is through Google Voice. This wasn't such a big deal to me but I would like to know if that can be fixed too. I have never had this issue until after I tried CM9. Since then I have tried many other ROMs to see if i still had this issue. I did.
The other ROMs I tried are:
MIUI v4
AOKP
Clean GB
Marcusant v3
MIUI Gingerbread
CM7
Legendary
What my current setup is:
ROM: AOKP
Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband Version: S700.0.5S.EI22
Kernel Version: [email protected] #6
Build Number: IML74K
Mod Version: aokp_epicmtd_build-28
Theme: NONE
PLEASE!!! ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!
Odin back to stock EL30. Follow the procedure in the How to restore a semi-bricked Epic thread. Test it there. If it works root and flash, do not restore data.

I did this and (sorry for taking so long to get back to you but i wanted to make sure that it was happening often and not just once in a while) it worked for the phone ringing but the messaging, although im receiving them, they come late. sometimes VERY late like a whole day later. This is not cool and would really like to find a solution because i dont want to have to be stuck on stock :'( Oh yeah btw the ROM i flashed this time was AOKP. Thank you for the help!!
I believe late texts are a symptom of carrier network issues. It should clear up when the maintenance is finished.

I am having the same issue with the phone calls either coming in late or not at all. I test this by calling my number from a land line. It takes 4 - 5 rings before the phone will start ringing, if it rings at all. Most of the time, Google Voice answers for voicemail.
I remember back in the days when I had my Windows phone, there was something that we could do to have the phone poll the towers more often to make the phone ring faster. I know that this faster response to phone calls came at the expense of more battery usage. I wonder if some of the battery saving tweaks done by the ROM developers has had a negative effect on the phone calls coming in.
I have tried updating my PRL and whatever through EL30, then reflashing with out restoring any data. Still having the issue.
Thanks.
this same thing is happening to me and everyone else in my neighborhood that has sprint. Its one specific tower that's causing the issues. I know this because once I connect to a different tower the issue goes away. I contacted sprint about it and they said they would fix it when they do the network vision upgrades, which could be a ways away.

I kinda thought it was a problem with the network and so i called them and last time they sent me a airave and it didnt solve the problem. I still think its a problem with sprint overall and am planning on calling them.
I have the same exact problem. I have even had the phone replaced and it still does it. I only know when it happens because google voice logs the missed call. I have had it happen with a completely stock phone as well as rooted.
It is very frustrating because like you said, people don't believe you when you say that your phone did not ring.
They are actually going to switch my phone again. I know this is not going to fix the problem, but I will play the game!

[Q] Losing 4G connection during calls, normal?

As the title says, starting a phone call causes my connection to drop from 4G to 3G. It is restored as soon as the call ends. I'm currently using the Liquidsmooth ROM, and since I can't remember whether stock did this as well I can't tell if it's an issue with the ROM or if that's just standard GS3 behavior.

I'm not sure if it is or not but it's better on your battery anyway and data really doesn't matter during calls.

Look at post 3625 in the Q&A thread for task's ROM...pretty good explanation about why you're seeing that issue.
sent from my SGS III on whatever ROM I might be running at the moment...

[Q] Not getting the second part of texts

I've had the problem that I don't get the second, third etc. parts of texts on the Wicked Sensations rom and thought it was Gosms. I switched to Handcent over the weekend and am still having this problem. Anyone have any ideas as to what could cause this??? Thanks!!!

I think this could be network related, I sometimes have this issue on any rom I've tried.

My daughter is on my plan. Same phone, stock rom but no problems on her end. It's quite frustrating to say the least.

I know Sprint's network used to ignore texts that were sent to close together. Maybe custom roms send texts to quickly, causing the network to ignore the second one.

The problem isn't sending, it's receiving. I don't get the second parts. Everyone has no problem getting what I send. I'm probably either gonna reinstall my rom or put the latest Kitkat on it

T999 can't receive picture messages

Running 10.2.1-d2tmo
Baseband is T999UVDLJC
SELinux is Permissive
I have no idea what is causing this issue, I'm not sure if my picture messages get sent...
How can I fix this or what ROM(s) would be better for me to have? I pretty much have no other issue that I can think of than this that I am having with this ROM.
Thank you for any and all help.
Is data enabled on your phone?
Yes, but I am usually connected to WiFi and I keep the 2g/edge data on usually. I have 3g/4g on if I'm using navigation.
I don't think I've had this problem before, but I only had this phone for a few months. Got it off eBay.
Not what to suggest. If it worked before and not now, maybe your carrier changed some settings?
Does this problem occur when running a stock ROM?
My sister-in-law had this problem. She doesn't have a data plan but does have sms and mms. Her carrier told her to enable data in order to get pictures.
I'm not sure, it's not something I noticed until recently.
Wow turn the WiFi off worked... That kinda sucks. Are there ways around this? My other phones didn't need me to do this, my other phones included g1, g2, and the s ii.
What's a good ROM to switch to that might not have this happening? Is there an app for this, radio, etc.?
Lastly where can I get the stock Roms that won't brick me lol?
Thank you for the help.

Sounds like a rom thing, you shouldn't have to disabled wifi for MMS. You can try another MMS app or switch to another rom or see if there is an update to it. No Roms will brick you in this section of the forum
