[Q] Phone calls crashing friend's phone app

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.

Hahaha that would be an interesting dynamic.

ATtention all Devs!!!!!!!!!! ROm MOdifffiers!!!

please when you guys build a new rom, please please please do not remove the tmobile name i.d app, since this is causing problems on all roms out there!!!!!!!!!!
Problem: If you are in a call!!! And if you recieve a second call, and try to answer, , the phone automatically will cut the signal on both lines, and will take you back to the home screen,, this is a serious bug, and all of you are removing this app(t-mobile name id app from your roms) , please do not remove this app!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Solution: Do not remove the tmobile name id app from your roms!!!!!!
and this msg is specially for this user: Allgamer: You delete my treats all the time, i dont know what the hell its your problem, im just trying to let everyone know about this issues, you always delete my treats and always leave me a link on the bottom( which are not from the same topic of what im talkin about) so read before deleting treats, and probably you will get more "thanks" on your xda profile'
NAME ID APK DONWLOAD:

Oooh treats! I want one...... J/k im sure the devs are aware bud

yeah they are aware but they still removing this app, which is really important for all of us, this app its associated with the calls or sumething

Can't be that hard to put it back on onesself

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

[ion] garbled scratchy sound when making phone calls

This was being discussed in a unrelated thread so I am starting this one so we can try to figure out what is causing it and who is having this issue.
Basically on stock LT28i. 68 firmware and on LT28h 3.7 firmware I have experienced a garbled scratchy sound when trying to make phone calls. Only thing I have found so far that fixes it is a reboot.
Who else has experienced this issue? I would like to get some more troubleshooting done with everyone before I pass the info along to my Sony Dev contact.

Happened to me once...didn't think it was a known bug though, this was after I flashed the pre-rooted 6.1.E.3.7...tried to make a few calls when I realized that weird sound, but I could receive calls just fine...did a reboot and back to normal so I didn't think twice about it until I saw your post.

This happens to me several times a week. Since I updated to the latest firmware for the lt28i. Since, upgraded to the latest lt28h, and still have the same issue.

So LT28i and LT28h firmware have the issue. Anyone on AT&T firmware have the issue? I'm going to flash back to the AT&T firmware and see if I still get it.

Exact thing happened to me. Only on the international firmware.

I have also run into this. I go to pick up a call or make one and you get all kinds of garble and squeal. I dont recall it ever doing it on the first ICS H firmware but every I and H firmware from then does. Cant say the ATT ones do it as I have never really used them. The only time it seems to do it is when the battery is under 20% or if the device has been on for more than 24 hours with out a re boot.

What carrier is everyone using that has experienced this? I have had it on AT&T.
Sent from my Sony Xperia™ TL

Same
Same here - Lt28at running LT28h on the ATT network. Only cropped up recently.

Note: I'm on AT&T's network.
I too had this problem when I flashed my LT28at to the LT28i 6.1.E.2.68 build. It appeared to go away for a long while after I reflashed only the modem found in LT28at 6.1.C.1.105 using flashtool. (note: it "appeared" to go away. I don't get very many voice calls...)
Had a failed OTA update the other day which seems to have brought back the initial problems but I cannot verify anything as I am currently at work. A reboot has my phone operating correctly (for now). Will mess with it more later but, from what I read, the lack of reproducibility of this issue may make troubleshooting difficult.

i had this issue while i was using the international firmwares as well.. flashed back to att firmware and no more such issue
i am using lt28at on att network, i think it's either an att thing or it's lt28at that doesn't support international firmware well enough

Lt28i is the same phone as lt28at. I think it's something with the lt28i firmware and at&t network. Maybe at&t did some updates that the lt28i firmware doesn't like.

Never had this. But sometimes when I make a call the call disconnects after 1 second. Not sure what's causing this. It happens about half of the calls I make.

What firmware are you using?
Sent from my Sony Xperia™ ion

I am using lt28h 6.3.7 build and have this issue. I don't recall having this issue with lt28i firmwares. It's annoying so I may go stock or back to I firmware.
Sent from my LT28h using xda premium

I also experience this on att network using .68 lt28i firmware happens once a day until I reboot I usually leave the phone on all the time which leads me to believe this is a few am issue or some sort of cache issue.

I too get this periodically. Attached is my phone info. (LT28at) ...Just yesterday, for the very first time, I also experience a volume phasing. I have not experienced this before on this ROM. Thought that might be relevant to this discussion as well.
Phasing = Volume Swell...Almost like someone is holding a volume knob and turning the volume all the way down, then back up. A reboot was the only thing to fix it.
Edit: Forgot to mention...I am not directly on ATT. Indirectly through StraighTalk.

I assumed this was a Google Voice issue and reinstalled it. I have continued to have the problem though. I am on an AT&T phone, flashed to the LT28i 6.1.E.2.68 build and rooted. It sounds like that movie White Noise where the dead communicate through phone static. I have noted that the phone was on for more than 24 hours a couple of times during the incidents, but am not sure if that is the case every time. I don't make a lot of calls though so it could be more consistent than I am aware.

So far no issue on the AT&T firmware. Next I'll try the lt28i firmware with lt28at baseband.

I tried that, still did it. I still think it's a RAM issue or cache issue

Hmm wonder what the differences in the AT&T firmware and international is then that the AT&T one isn't affected.

[Q] Problem at some calls- can't hear or be heard

Hi everyone,
I know that alot of users asks for this question but I really search for an answer but I didn't find a good one.
I recieved a T-mobile galaxy s4 and immediately rooted it and installed a new rom (Insane kit kat)
But after short time I understood that my calls not always works as they should.
After two calls suddenly I stopped to hear the other side and the other side stopped to hear me.
I tried a few times and sometimes the call was good and sometimes not.
I asked on the Rom thread and they told me to switch my modem to nb4 and i did it... but the problem remains....
I also switched the kernel to KT but also... still no luck...
And today I also switched the rom to Resurrection Remix and it worked for few hours but the problem returned and stayed....
So someone got a good idea to what should I do before I take the device to a lab..?
And I hope this thread will help otherslike me that got the same problem...
Thanks!

I would return to full stock and see if the problem persist or not. If by chance it fixes your problem we can go from there.......

Yes, once you go stock you will loose root. BUT, lets see if that fixes your call issues first.

Flashing this over custom rom and then rooting will give you rooted/stock Rom?
No special precautions to take if you're on a custom rom?

So.... I returned back to stock, at the first attempt the WIFI didn't worked so I flashed again and then I started to make calls... but..
after few good calls the problem returned again...
In my opinion I really think that the problem is in the software and not in the hardware because I can make some regular calls.
The sim is brand new but the cell company that I belong to is working with roaming only and based on other cell company network...
I'm really hopeless.. it's really sucks....
any more ideas?

You mean a "hardware" problem? If you returned to full unrooted stock and you calls are still messed up you have 2 choices....
1. Return it for warranty purposes.
2.ReRoot and run a custom rom again just to make sure.
Other than that, I'm outta ideas

Actually, had this same thing. Figured out that it there is a noise reduction setting that caused it for me. Settings -> My Device -> Calls

I know this is a long shot but have you tried shooting canned air into the mic and speaker, or using a headset? Canned air has fixed two mystifying problems for us, and it seems equally likely that this random behavior is caused by hardware.

Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-M919 sound not working on calls.

I can call people and receive calls on my phone but no one can hear me and I can't hear anyone. I don't even hear a tone when it's dialing sometimes. I'll call someone and they'll answer and it will just be silent and vice versa on both ends of the call, I'll receive a call and it will be totally silent. I have already gone thru all the troubleshooting steps I can think of even going as far as to have my carrier send me another model of the same phone and getting a new sim card they have made many tickets on this issue and have deemed its not network related. Below I have attached 3 log cats of the issue. Sorry they were to big to upload to XDA directly. So here are 3 links to the downloads.The issue is happening on stock non rooted knox isn't tripped

Most likely it's a hardware issue.

What ROM are you using?
What mods are you using..
Please be more specific..
I was using the Hulk Kernel on the Google Play Edition ROM..
and I was playing with the Faux Sound mod, and it killed all my sound..
Uninstalling the mod corrected my sound issues.. It may not be your issue, but that was my example..
I suggest flashing to STOCK..
BTW those links are ENCRYPTED!

If you can use a video call app like Tango or Skype and you have sound it will most likely be the sound chip not connecting to the modem and using WiFi for voice /video transmission.
Time for a replacement phone.

I said in the op the issue is happening on stock non rooted knox isn't tripped. I have not used any mods or root im on stock rom. Never even flashed it
