[Q] HTC Desire - phone not receiving incoming calls & mms arriving 2/3 hours later
Hi,
My phone is unable to receive incoming calls, i can call out no problem. Also i'm receiving my txt messages 2/3 hours later...Callers are being sent straight to voicemail!!!
Been onto my provider (Orange) and they've updated my sim with no success and they've looked at the phone's firmware, got the latest. Android Ver 2.2.2 & Software 2.29.405.7 - it started after this lastest update actually!!!
Tried using sim in another phone, works fine no problems.
Factory reset my phone to no avail.
Nothing seems to work.
Can someone help please....been like this for about 4 weeks...
Thanks...

1) Settings--> Wireless&Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Network Operators..
2) Select 'Search Networks' and allow the search to complete. Select the operator you are with.
Would seem that the network lock is not so good on Desire S, works reportedly for a lot of users this way

Got the same problem with my desire on vodafone. I can get texts, voicemail and ring out, but cant receive calls and the sim works in another non android phone.
It seems to have started the same time I tried signing up to google voice. I've checked I am connected to the network, vodafone is my call forwarding service and there are no call baring forwarding settings enabled on the phone. I then I blamed it on the cyanogen 7 #262 build, and reverted to the runny crux 5 rom which worked fine before but still no joy.
Had no luck accessing the settings for my phone on google voice, there seems to be no where in the settings to turn it off. Sort of stumped now...

No incoming call notifications

My phone will switch itself off when in standby mode from time to time and it's a pain in the neck. I don't know if that's related to the main issue.
I can't receive incoming calls for periods of time, but I can still receive voicemail alerts. Yesterday, I was just picking up voicemail after voicemail. On top of this, intermittantly I won't get an incoming phone call notification, just the missed call icon afterwards.
I'm currently running Black 2.0 with Radio 1.38.00.10. Anyone got any ideas?
I suspect your phone is going into HSDPA mode and the network is not letting calls through during that time. I had the same problem on my non-operator bought phone with my provider 3-Sweden until I installed their extended ROM. If your operator hasn't offered a solution, you could try getting HTweakC and turning HSDPA off (this still allows regular 3G connections, which do allow incoming calls regardless).
I have a similar problem...
except mine has gone into this mode of operation permanently.
I'm running Black Satin & a radio ver 1.48 When I receive a call, the signal strength icon drops out & goes searching meanwhile the call is diverted to message box. My outgoing calls work fine as does both out & incoming SMS messages. I've tried changing swapping my sim card but it still does it with the different Sim. I've tried reflashing the roms & hard booting but the problem persists. I don't know whether this is a hardware issue or whether the firmware isn't working correctly with my operator vodafone NZ

Upgraded my MDA Vario 2 using Schap's ROM and voicemail no longer working

I get voicemail notifications but when I try and connect using my mailbox number i get a recorded messaging saying that they are unable to connection from this network.
Using landline to voicemail works OK. I have called t-mobile up and they've reset my voicemail (haven't told them i've upgraded the phone).
Everything else seems to be working fine. I assume this is a setting issue.
Help!
You need to put an extra zero at the front of the number it calls for your voicemail - for some reason, on WM6, it omits the zero - an extra one puts it back.
HTH
Smiffy
That fixed it. Phew!
Another anoying problem is that the phone no longer identifies the caller from my contact list when it rings. Any ideas anybody.
Anybody had any luck getting the SIP client working?
It appears contacts synched from outlook do not come up as recognized when i get an inbound call.
Created contact on the phone and viola phone number recognized.
I got this problem after installing one of the T-Mobile WM6 test roms, I just dial my own number, that works for me.

Yeah, same thing with me, only I replaced the voicemail number with my own number so it works.

Call Forwarding - Unexpected response from network error

When I update my voicemail settings, or call forwarding, I get a "Unexpected response fron network" error message. I called my provider (Rogers) and said it appears to be correct on their system... However, it doesn't seem so because when people call me, they get forwarded to Google Voice... I already uninstalled Google Voice, and it was taken out already, however, it still forwards to there which is a USA number and I'm in Canada, so people who call me get forwarded to a long distance number and it bothers me and them so much...
Rogers told me to contact HTC but I want to hear your solutions first guys... BTW, I'm using the Virtuous ROM (which is almost entirely stock packages)
Help?

did you use the star codes to disable call forwarding?
What are the star code? Already forgot them... heh

I was getting the same error and this worked for my desire on orange:-

"Try sending ##21# which is the network code to cancel all forwarding."
Call Forwarding Problem
I have an unlocked AT&T Atrix on Orange UK running Gingerbread. As soon as you go and look at the Call Forwarding options the phone indicates that all calls are Forwarded and the Icon top left turns on, disabling 'Foward All' shows disabled for a few seconds then comes back with the 'Unexpected reponse from network' message, although calls are not actually Forwarded (can still receive calls). Old SIM card, but OK in old V3x phone. I tried with a '3' Network SIM and all works as expected, so definitely an Orange problem with Android/Atrix. I called Orange who sent some SIM updates one of which failed, called them again and they decided to send me a new SIM but this has made no difference at all.
Only way to reset the indicator and message once on, is to enter ##21# which does the job.
Just an annoying Network bug but interested if anyone knows how to get Orange (and I guess T-Mobile) to do anything about this as it seems from other research to affect several different phone makes and models.
Same issue
I'm Having the same issue on Rogers with my Xperia ion....still ahven't sorted it out
Any Resolution to this issue? I have what appears to be an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S7 Active from ATT and attempting to use my CRICKET SIM and I get this message.

[Q] Problems with Outgoing Calls

Hey everybody
So I've had my DHD on Vodafone since November. Since that time I've been having a recurring problem making out going calls as well as forwarding text messages and occasionally receiving calls.
Making Outgoing Calls: Whenever I try to make an outgoing call the phone will bleep and say 'Call ended'.. It does this alot at first it was across the board but tonight I seem to be able to call everyone apart from the person I actually need to call (typical).
Forwarding texts: I dont seem to be able to forward texts at all.. They get sent from my phone and it shows up as being sent but they are never received.
Receiving Calls: Less of a problem however every now and then people will try to call me and wont be able to get through.. Also sometimes the phone will cut out in the middle of calls.
Has anyone experienced problems like this before and if so what are the solutions??
I have tried switching the network settings and my wi fi is off and nothing has worked. I have also taken the phone apart and cleaned all of the contacts..
Phone already restored??
Sim Card tested in another phone, whether the card is OK??
Ask the provider to send you the right net configuration via sms??
only some ideas you can try....

[Q] Voicemail locks phone?

I've received a voicemail (I have the reel-to-reel tape icon). If I do anything in an attempt to listen to the voicemail (including dialling 901 as suggested) then my phone attempts to make a call, which ends about one second later, then the display locks and I have to enter my PIN number again.
I'm happy just to turn Voicemail off, as it has stopped working, but I suspect this will involve dialling 901, and then I'm back to square 1.
Any suggestions, or do I just wait for the voicemail to expire?
I liked this phone for the first three weeks, but now, with the "Low memory" problem and now this, I've passed into the "hopefully someone will steal it" phase...
I suspect it that your wfs can't read the settings from the sim to find out the voicemail/anwser phone. Haven't tested it, will report back if I have a problem.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using the air.
That was it. GiffGaff uses 443 (GIF) instead of 901.
Their help said to enter *61*443# but that didn't seem to do anything. Voicemail still said 901.
So I went into the settings and changed the Voicemail number to 443. It still said 901.
So I rebooted the phone. Now it says 443 and Voicemail works.
I'm left wondering which of my two actions fixed the problem, and if it WASN'T *61*443# then I wonder what that did?
voicemail is in your service provider in sim, not included in phone only emails are compatible with wildfire s. just tell them to email you than this voicemail.
