[BUG]&[FIX] Can not Add Call or Create Conference call, or put call on Hold on T989

[BUG]&[FIX] Can not Add Call or Create Conference call, or put call on Hold on T989
Hello,
I am unable to make 2 calls at the same time or a conference call. Everytime I try this I get android.acore.phone force closed. I have tried with Roman's kernel and stock rooted rom and with beastmnod 2.1. I want to find out if this is a software issue or issue with my device.
Can anyone try this and post results? Thanks,
install the Telus based kernel
Tmo based kernels seems to require that annoying ID App from Tmo before it lets you do it.
basically they are trying to sell you another "feature"

That is strange, because I'm using the stock kernel with Phantom ROM and I'm able to do conference calls.
my information is based of 3 guys that has been complaining about dropped calls when trying to do 3 way or putting another caller on hold
all 3 of those topics suggest it's that Tmo ID application, so take it with a grain of salt, it might or might not be correct
personally i have no problem with 2 callers, but i've not yet tried conferencing calling
i'm on Juggernaut 2
in that case the work around is to install a widget
i'll suggest Widgetsoid 2 from Market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jim2

So should I assume my phone is defective then?
Try to restore/re-install T-Mobile Name ID and check.

woah! so now we got 4 people that confirmed the same thing...
it's it only affecting people using Tmo SIM cards?
because it works for me, without that Tmo broadware name ID app
It would be strange if it has to do something with the SIM. But yes, i'm using TMO SIM and that too the new one which came in the box.

Good point. Hmm I could test it without Tmo sim but the other ATT sim I have is only for data and does not have any minutes. Also, I got my phone for full retail but that does not seem to make any difference. AllGamer do you have yours SIM unlocked? (Must be since you are using a different SIM I assume).
thanks.

True! Unless you are on Simple Mobile (Defending my stupidity lol)
i had a dropped call when i was on the phone with someone and tried to switch over to another call...when it happened, i had a couple of people call my phone and i tried it again...i tested it like 3 times..it works..i can switch between calls and merge them..maybe the first time was just an isolated incident for me

Dropped calls in conferance calling? After installing roms/root? Solution here!!!
download the attached below is the name id.apk for t-mobile.....
INSTALL IT ON YOUR GS2 AND PROBLEM SOLVED!
This will solve the problem for people having issues with drop calls in a conference call/ 2 CALLS/SWAPING CALLS etc.....
Confirmed!!! This is the solution!!!
What if I'm not a T-Mobile customer? Will it make any difference? Because T-Mobile Name ID is just going to check back with T-Mobile and find out I'm not their customer and do nothing afterwards, right?

i'm on Wind and i'm not having issues
where is that file supposed to be stored? under normal apps? or is it a system app? i have had the problem once..i just want to check if i already have it installed as to avoid it happening again
---------- Post added at 06:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:31 PM ----------
i just installed it, i guess i didnt have it as it didnt prompt me about overwriting or replacing it...i just opened it and it said "tmobile name id is unable to contact the server" does that mean its not working?
nevermind..i got it to connect...its a paid service? lol...do i really need to have this on my phone to ensure that call waiting and 3 way calling works? this is stupid
so i installed it, rebooted..i just got a call from my friend...it listed his location and #...so im guessing its the app kicking in? its actually pretty cool..i dont recall it giving me that information before i installed the app...i never agreed to paying the $3/mo fee...how is it still working?
Actually don't have that issue t-mobile puts it under change services as t-mobile name id free trial I told them to remove that because I don't want to be charged for something I don't use.

What is the actual name of the NameId apk? I know it is on here for download, but the named download is not the original naming. I am trying to pull from stock backup so I can drop into system folder to test a couple of other issues. As for the 3way/merge issue. Without the name id app, I get some failures, and some successes.
Anyway, if someone know the actual name of the app I would appreciate it.

Help! No Network after Sim Unlock!

Help!
I'm an experienced use, but am totally lost here.
I got the SIM unlock code from Tmobile yesterday, threw in an ATT sim, unlocked it, no problem.
I thought it was working fine yesterday
Then when I woke up this morning, i have no network at all! Just the circle with a line through it.
Anyone have any thoughts/guesses/help? I don't know what to do!

easy test
if you still have any old phone in the house, or borrow a phone from a friend/co worker for a few minutes
just to swap the SIM card and try, then you can quickly figure out if it's an issue with the phone or the SIM
SIM unlocking a phone will not cause the network problem, unless the IMEI is black listed
is the phone able to find any network?
also you can use Odin to flash back to factory stock

at least i dont think its blacklisted....i bought it from a guy on craigslis.
but it worked fine for weeks.
why would this cause a problem?
i called tmobile and they didnt say anything,,,,
Go in to network settings and check network operators. If your phone sees T-Mobile/ATT but you cant connect then that means your phone was blacklisted for either being lost or stolen.

when i type 'search now' it doesn't find ANYTHING.
it stays on 'searching' for a while', doesn't select anything
then it comes back showing tmobile and att.
when i select tmobile (or att) it says, "your sim card does not allow a connection to this network"
If the phone was blacklisted, why would tmobile not say anything to me (and why would it only stop working now?)

I've been on with (incompetent) people on tmobile for half an hour now...
I would check sim card mine went bad after I took it out of my phone then stuck it in my pocket for a half hour or so when I tried using it it said same thing about connecting to network so I tried my sim in another phone and it didn't work. Use my friends sim and my phone found connection in a few seconds

change the APN settings. there are a few out there that will work but to keep it simple..
go to:
Settings>Wireless and network>Mobile networks>Access Point Names
press the menu button and go to New APN
for the name put "ATT" and for APN type "phone"
leave everything else blank

nothing worked...tried my wife's sim in my phone, no go.
not a blacklisted phone (according to tmobile).
Since I bought it on craigslist, they wouldn't let me send it back...until I said those three magic words (cancel my account).
They are sending me a replacement---replacement fee is being waved.
Thank you magenta!

I now believe that this is probably related to the same bug that is causing people to lose their ISDN and have the same loss of radio connection.
see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474504 for one example (lots of others if you look)
Hello. FWIW: Not quite the same problem, but the fix for me might work for you by chance.
When I got my unlock code from T-Mobile then applied it, my phone did register with the T-Mobile network, but it could not receive phone calls.
Using her phone, my girlfriend was kind enough to help me test various scenarios: phone calls in, out; sms in, out; GSM or Wi-Fi; etc. We narrowed it down to no calls in on GSM at least.
Like you I tried rebooting, but I did not get as far as re-flashing, etc. What I did try on a hunch was clearing all user and system apps' cache with Titanium Backup. VoilĂ ! It worked.
I hope that helps you with your phone (assuming you use Titanium Backup.)

R800at Help (Multiple Issues)

Hey Everyone,
I have been going through hell troubleshooting this fone for a week now. I would like to have this thread to keep a log of what has been going on. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Back story
Got phone from eBay. I know, I know. It is a prototype etched with "Not For Sale CB5XXXXXXX" on the front of the bezel (numbers hidden for privacy). The phone is in immaculate condition with a perfect screen and absolutely zero scratches. It appears to be used very little. It had a screen protector installed so perfectly that it wasn't even noticed by the seller. Also, it came with a white back cover but the bezel is blue. All these facts leave me with some questions.
The sticker under the battery reads:
Sony Ericsson
MoP 1251.18 11W19
Type: AAD - 388087 - BV AA CB5
Prototype not for sale S1 1251-5447.18
Not Type approved Prototype build: TP Blue AT&T
There are 2 bar codes and S/N and some other numbers and Made in China after that.
(If any of the above number should be kept private please let me know and I will remove them.)
More Back Story
Phone works 100% stock with my T-Mobile SIM card. I can get into fastboot fine. I can successfully flash superuser to get root on the stock ROM. I can then flash kernels too. I verified that it is unlocked with the Sony unlock code.
Here is where it gets good.
When I flash ROMS, all hell breaks loose. Gin2Jelly worked great! I had partitioned my SD card and loaded all my apps with Titanium Backup and was about to use it as a daily driver..... until I inserted the SIM. No service. SIM works fine in other phones.
Then I started trying other ROMS. The would flash okay. After booting and waiting the prescribed 10 mins as usual for all ROMs multiple issues arose. No icons, H/W buttons not functioning, etc.
This is where I am at. What could be going wrong?
Set your apn settings manually for tmobile.

Hmmm.... I forgot to mention one other issue. On Gin2Jelly, I tried that and was unable to set them at all. They wouldn't save. I was so frustrated. If I set the Name, APN, MMSC and backed out without saving the new APN would show up in the list. Once I set the MCC and MNC, and either saved or backed out, the new APN disappeared.
The SIM card simply would not be recognized. I even tried an app called Tweakker APN INTERNET MMS that is supposed to help with this glitch and no go.
Thanks for the reply. I wish it was that simple.
SUNDAY BUMP!
Bueler??
Just tried Turbo Gamer Edition. NO SERVICE!!!! I guess I'm not going to get this phone working. The ROM loads fully but I cant enter any APN settings. They won't save. Tweakker East Internet and MMS app not detecting SIM card either. This effin blows.

R800a_3.0.1.B.0.270_ATT.ftf is the only FTF that seems to work 100%. Is this the right version my my model?
Hi too have the same prototype model etching on the bottom below the key buttons withe same marking underneath the battery. I am running it on tmobile in the USA without issues. When I received this phone it was bootloader unlocked however mine was sim locked. Had to get in touch with alejandrissimo to get sim unlocked.

Question - Would your T-Mobile SIM work on the stock ROM? Mine seems to function fine once I enter the APK settings. I thought that if it is SIM Locked that I wouldn't be able to use my T-Mo SIM on stock ROM.

Ay one point I had the at&t firmware Nd it worked fine. However I am in nxt l.e. and it works great. And in my area I get hspa+ (5-7mbps down/ 1-3mbps up)
I had to look up the T-Mobile apn settings. Just install the app tweaker from the Google play store. Its automatic, make sure your on wifi. It will look up the correct apn settings for tmpbile USA or whatever/wherever and install. No issues after that.

My SIM won't work in other ROMs so it won't let me set APN settings. I've tried that app as well. The app only works if it can detect a SIM card. The phone won't even detect a SIM card unless I am on FTF R800a_3.0.1.B.0.270_ATT.ftf. This is my main issue. Does this mean I am SIM locked?

READ the OP please
So here is a run-down of what I just did.
1. Flashed R800a_3.0.1.B.0.270_ATT.ftf via Flashtool in Quickboot mode
2. Booted into stock ROM and inserted SIM card and was able to browse and make calls.
3. Entered bootable recovery wih Quckboot
4. Flashed Lupus 720p
5. Booted into stock ROM and was still able to call and browse
6. Made a NANDroid backup
7. Wiped Cache/Dalvik
8. Installed Gin2Jellybean 2.4.0 from Lupus CWM
9. Booted, waited 10, rebooted
10. SIM not detected. Unable to enter APN settings. Tweakker APN app says "Your SIM card cannot be used. Please make sure your SIM card is inserted and you are in an area with GSM signal and then restart the process..."
I don't understand how my SIM can work in OEM ROM but can't in all other ROMs.
Am I doing something wrong? Should I try another FTF?

Gotcha. My bad. I been troubleshooting this for like 2 weeks. Not really sure, LOL!
So,
I hooked up with Alejandrissimo who was able to properly unlock my phone. He said that it was unlocked previously with some copycat tool rather than the one he used. The copycat tools touch the hardware side of the device and the original tool doesn't. This prevented the usual method of unlocking and more steps were needed. This test involved the "Testpoint" method. This required me to remove the sticker under the battery and use a paper clip ( I also tried a small wire but the paper clip worked best) to short one contact to a ground spot for the battery while plugging the USB in and then clicking a button on the tool on my screen. All the while, Alejandrissimo was remoted into my PC and helping me along the way. This is almost necessary because both of your hands are tied up with the paper clip and USB plug. It was intense, LOL. Of course I donated to him for his time.
I am still testing. It seems to be randomly rebooting after R800a_4.0.2.A.0.79.ftf, / LuPuS_zeus_Stock-gB+iCsv5 / Gin2JellyBean v2.4.0.
UPDATE After flashing a stable firmware, LuPuS_zeus_GingerBreadv10-ram.img, and Gin2Jelly, sadly my SIM card is still not detected yet worked in the ROM on the phone after the process was done.

Any of those will work on your R800at , I flashed [.79] without problems. I have flashed them all in the past and I have used my device on T-Mobile and AT&T. Also don't worry about the whole R800a and R800at thing, they are basically the same phone, both capable of HSPA+ just released in different regions of the world. Which is why all of those firmwares will work on your phone. The [.270] is not the most current ATT firmware though, [.285] is.
Also you should note, that flashing a stock firmware is only for setting partition sizes and the baseband, after you flash a custom kernel and rom, most of the stock firmware you flashed in the FTF is gone. It is just good practice to flash a stock firmware and also gives you a clean install to easily troubleshoot from.
Per your OP though, I can tell you that booting up after flashing something and having no icons and hardware buttons not working is a wrong firmware problem, whether it be the FTF or the Rom you flashed.
I do know that every Gsm firmware has booted on my R800at without problems, which makes me wonder if some of your problems could be due to the fact your R800at was only a prototype and its hard to say what was modified for the actual release compared to yours and even compared to ozzmanj's

Per your OP though, I can tell you that booting up after flashing something and having no icons and hardware buttons not working is a wrong firmware problem, whether it be the FTF or the Rom you flashed.
I do know that every Gsm firmware has booted on my R800at without problems, which makes me wonder if some of your problems could be due to the fact your R800at was only a prototype and its hard to say what was modified for the actual release compared to yours and even compared to ozzmanj's

His prototype sounds like mine (see photos) I have flashed several ROMS before settling on NXT LE. And I had no issues with any of them. Again though I did have to hit up Alejandrissimo to sim unlock it as my bootloader was unlocked when I got it. Only difference was mine was the standard black and no AT&T branding.

Arc S - often loosing network.

Welcome
For some time very ofen phone lost network ( calling and sms ). After the reset is well again and after some time shows that there is no signal again.. This happens on different roms and kernels. Even at stock. What could be wrong?
A bit strange that the carrier arent avilable ( calling nad sms ), but connect to the Internet all the time working.
last time Im use wotanserver.com service , unlock bootloader and simlock. Its can be reason ?
What baseband are you using?

Try using baseband 72 or 86 or 66
one of them replies 100%
Does it happen only with your phone? Could it be due to operator's low signal in that area?
Im solved problem by testing. Before Im really think its my phone number, change carrier three time.
All are fine it I do all with install custom rom. It I install kernel next full reset/wipe data next rom all work wellcome. But after im change kernel its happen again.
Thanks for any advice. Subject can be closed.

[Q] Emergency Calls Only - Still get 3g but no cals

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum, the reason i've joined is that my Galaxy Note II has a major problem with it...
Early august I rooted it, but then put it back to it's original ROM, it was working fine for a week or so, and then it wouldn't make any calls.
I can access 3g, used a different SIM card Three and it does the same thing. I've rebooted it from scratch about 4/5 times.
Today I found it in my drawer and wanted to try it again, I put my SIM card in and the same thing still happens.
Any suggestions?7
My
AP: N7100XXDME6
CP: N710XXDMF1
CSC N7100XXDMF1
My screen is cracked at the top left corner of the phone, at first I thought I might have broken the aerial, but then how would my 3g work?
Thanks!
So what happens when you try to make call? Does it say not registered on network, give a different error message or something?

It says "not registered on a network"
Thanks.
What about your IMEI ? Most probably it will be fine as you still able to use 3G. In certain when IMEI is correct and you are unable to make Call, possibilities are
1.Device get banned due to tempered IMEI (usually happens if you have purchased old and may be stolen)
2.Network locked.
Talk to your operator about these.

Hi Thanks for the reply,
I did buy it from the market, it can't be locked as it doesn't work on a different carrier so I don't know why that would be?
Can you change the IMEI number on the device at all???

Best not to ask this question.
Changing the ID of a phone IS ILLEGAL.
Dr.ketan is the expert but, as long as your phone is not blocked. whenever I get that error, I simply go into settings do a network search and then re register on my network. I presume you've tried that already?
