Sense roms and facebook synced contacts - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I looked for this on XDA and Google but I may just be not searching for the right thing, whenever I try to call a person who has their number on Facebook and it has the format +1... the phone disconnects and says the network is busy and to try again later, but if I remove the +1 the call works fine. I can't seem to edit people who's numbers I got from Facebook to remove the +1 from their number either.
Currently I am using Shooter nightly but I have had this problem on other sense roms as well, my PRL and profile are up to date and I've had this issue when I was stock as well as a friend of mine who has the thunderbolt.
If anyone knows of a way to fix this I would appreciate it.

I have noticed that with phones which have the automatic prepend setup on their phones. If that's the case, it's definitely a network issue. There is not a fashion with which to edit the Facebook contact info, other than adding the contact to the phonebook. Facebook adds that +1 automatically.

Under Settings -> Calls there should be a Setting for Plus Code dialing. The settings there should fix the problem. If you don't have those settings, then you're likely using a ROM ported from a GSM device.

Ah I remembered this setting before when I had this problem I couldn't find it on this rom so I guess I'm using a GSM port... well guess I'm going to have to find another daily, it's okay though I'm a flash-aholic.
Thank you very much.

Has any one downloaded Google voice and not liked how, when you awnswer the phone you have to push "1" to pick it up? I tried uninstalling it and it still does it.

Uninstalling the app does nothing you have to go to Google.com/voice and configure the settings really easy and simple

Ain't no "user error". It just appears.
I didn't have any problems until one day it started to say "press 1 to pick up" or something like that. I never changed anything on GV webpage.
I had to uncheck "call screening" or something in that sense.
For some of you who need repeating stuff to understand, I HAVE NEVFER CHANGED ANYTHING ON GV WEBPAGE BEFORE"
Okay so where is that setting at if its not on the website, I'm not trying to argue with you guys I just want to know how to remove the pressing one bs.

Once logged in under the settings turn off call screening... also make sure that you have the receive text messages box checked or you won't get texts

You can also un-integrate with your sprint account and it will act as a separate number on your phone. I have google voice plus app installed and have it set so that any calls to Canada are dialed with my google voice number and no long distance charges are incurred. All other numbers are dialed with my regular sprint number. Note that if you leave your google voice number integrated with Sprint, all calls will be dialed with google voice. That setting can also be found on the web based settings for google voice under the Phones tab.

Pressing 1 to except phone call

Im nnot sure when it happened...but its very annoying to have to press 1, after sliding to answer phone call. I've odin'd back to stock and i stillhad to press 1. But my friends unrooted ET doesn't have that requirement. His can I fix this??!!

Do you have google voice? that could be it.

Thats almost definitely it. It a setting you can change in Google voice.
Sounds like you have Google Voice.
I believe this has something to do with Google Voice's Call Presentation settings. Turning it off makes it so that the first phone to pick up an incoming call, will automatically answer it.
I've uninstalled it before and relized that stock voicemail blows donkey...but I will try it again.

You can either set it up for just voicemail or you can use the full integration of Google Voice. The full integration enables you to screen calls, block unwanted phone numbers from calling you, handling your SMS traffic and a bunch of other things.
It sounds like you have the full integration enabled.
Yup, definitely Google voice. Log into you account via a computer and go through the settings and you'll see it there.
Like everyone else said gvoice change it online

Settings/calls/voice screening •OFF
Its should be off by default. It took me forever to figure that out.
Edit: Yea I ment its on by default, but should be set off and to switch it on if you wanted that feature.

Nope. It's set to on by default--which, I think, is a bad idea. Most people automatically hang up when they get anything resembling a voicemail so I ended up having to call people back because of that feature. I quickly turned it off. Voice is otherwise great, though.
Yes I noticed I get alot of 3 sec voice mails. Thx all

Gotta love the Google Voicemail to text.

Sprint and Google voice

I have been restoring a titanium backup of voice for a long time but being the happy new owner of a GNex I Installed fresh from the market. It didnt ask about the google voice number integration (the part we all skipped) Did I miss something or have they changed something. I also remember it asking about texting but now it only asks about calls. Can someone confirm. Thanks
Bump

I'm not sure what your question is? Do you or don't you want the integration? Are you having problems making or receiving calls or texts?

I dont want integration I just remember having to skip that part and now it no longer asks. I just wanted to verify with someone who has set it up recently that they removed that part. also if someone who JUST uses it for voicemail only would check their settings within voice > sync and notifications > it says receive texts via google voice app (which was another step which was missing I didnt choose that option upon expanding it the choices are that and via the messaging app. I do not want google voice to do anything but voicemails and the new app dosent appear to have the previous steps to deselect those options. I was just looking for verification
Thanks
also on the sprint GNex I recieve a flashing led upon rec of a voicemail but do not have the flashing led with a new text can someone verify this as well Thanks agn
Edit
I chaged the setting to receive texts via the messaging app and now i get a flashing indicator weird
U can select it to receive text also but it doesn't automatically integrate....have to go into settings and check it....

any help on this would be very much appreciated
Normally the best thing to do is clear facebook data and log in again, if that doesn't work then uninstall/reinstall.

tried all that m8,endlessly searching on google,nothing works,many people have the same problem even with different phones,beginning to think it's a problem @facebook's end,have installed Android Pro Widgets,logged in no probs.
Would still like to find a solution though
Having the exact same issue here. Tried every solution that i've found, needless to say nothing worked.
Something i have found out is that if i use my girlfriends account, or any other account except my own, there are absolutely no issues.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So did you manage to find a fix, or did you just setup a new account? Because i have tried mostly everything, but i still have the issue.
This hasn't worked for me for ages, but a little work around:
Open the Facebook app until it asks for access.
Minimize app
Login to facebook on browser.
Minimize browser, and go back to facebook app.
This usually allows the app to login for me

Wifi Calling workaround - malformed caller ID (;63)

I've tried a few custom ROMs like Wicked and Jedi and they both seem to have the same problem; when I get an incoming call while on Wifi-calling the incoming number is truncated and has a ";63" at the end so it doesn't match my contact info and it comes up as unknown. I don't get a lot of phone calls, mostly texts, so I am not sure if it happens on every ROM.

Fix! Thanks to @julyprum
julyprum said:
It is a Wifi Calling bug in the Note 3. There's a workaround that I'm using and works well. Download Prefixer from the market and create a rule for ";63" and it will delete the ";63", this will allow to get the contact info from the Address Book as its supposed.

I guess you new or haven't read. ... this has been a known problem since day one. .. No fix for this until Samsung comes up with one. .. If you look around you will see everyone and every rom for this phone has the same issue. ..

Nope, not new, just haven't come across this issue until today and I didn't see any specific thread on the problem. I usually keep Wifi Calling on cellular preferred so I guess that's why I haven't seen it yet.
