Hi all,
Ive tried searching for anything related to this but I couldn't find anything. I've got a Desire on Orange but I'm having problems answering calls. If i haven't used it for a while, and I get a call, I can answer it but the other person can't hear me. They can call me back immediately after cutting the call off and it will work. I've flashed pretty much every rom available, other than the radio update because it locks the SIM out but its been the same for all of them. Is anyone else having this issue? Should I send it back to Orange/HTC? Hoping not to with having no Orange rom to flash back to it.
Thanks
Oliver

Bump!
Oliver, I've got exactly the same problem... I've been away for a few days, and every time I was called first thing in the morning, the caller could not hear me. It's become so predictable that now when my wife calls, she knows the phone does this so she simply asks me to call back.
I found powering the phone down also fixed it, and initially assumed it might be some power/profile affecting software causing the problem, but from what I've found via Google this evening I'm not so sure.
The following threads on other forums (here and here)also describe the same issue, but without any credible solution.
Can anyone here assist us?! It's driving me mad!
Thanks,
Matt
In case anyone else comes across this... it appears to have been fixed with the Froyo update.
I installed CM9 beta 0 on Sat. Working great without any issues until now...My phone rings and I answer the call. I cannot hear the other person (or know if I actually connected even though the screen says I am).
ALSO...when I call out the phone actually places 2 outgoing calls (I found this out by calling my office phone and 2 lines ring) While I am calling out my phone shows the call screen but I do not hear any ringing. Sometimes the person can answer, sometimes it just goes to voicemail.
I have only install a few apps. The only one I can think that might have something to do with this is Google Voice. BUT my phone was working just fine with all these apps for 2 days and many phone calls. I have not installed anything today.
Anyone else have this happen, and any advice? Thanks!
I am trying to learn this stuff as I go, but this is my first post...so thank you all for the help!

That's a pretty weird issue! So I am not sure if I can be that much help but have you tried to go into cwm and clear cache and dalvik. The only other thing that I can think of would be to try wiping day day reflashing the rom

Thanks. I uninstalled Google Voice and it went away. I wasnt big on GV anyway so didn't mind letting go of it. Haven't had the problem again. Dont know what went wrong but might have just been a quick glitch.
biz, why not update to beta1?

Hi All,
I got the Tmobile Note 2 couple days ago and have been slowing increasing my usage. I have discovered a problem that I would need to the community to help me resolve to identify if I have a bad phone, or it maybe a more serious design flaw.
First, I have repeatedly able to pinpoint the problem: If you are using the hotspot that T-mobile provides for you, and you are tethering with your device; when someone calls you and you accept the call, the chances of the phone hanging up on its own without any human interaction increases dramatically if there are connections using the hotspot, i.e. Another device connecting/disconnecting from the hotspot, or lots of data traffic, etc...
The dropped calls looks likes the phone just hung up the line in the middle of a phone call. To me, the "dropped call" can be anywhere between 5 seconds to 5 minutes. I was able to repeat this issue at least 10 times in a row already and thus my concern. I have identified and replicated this problem at many many different location with many many different signal strengths, indoor, outdoor, in the car, on the can... etc....
If you guys can repeat this problem, let us know, because I do not realize any limitation of simultaneous of using the hotspot feature and the voice calling radio.
thanks ALL!
Just wanted to report back:
I just got back from the tmobile store with a brand new Note 2, and when I tested in store, guess what?
It happened the same way on the new device!!!
I'm pretty sure that it is either the design flaw of the Note 2, or there is something wrong with the build of Tmobile or JB.
Nevertheless, I hope some experts can point out what can be done to resolve this, and maybe people who have flashed to the custom roms can see if they can replicate the problem.
Basically, turn on Hotspot, connect a tethering device to the hotspot, call the phone on another line, answer the call, then disconnect a device from the hotspot.
Chances are the phone will automatically hang up the call after the first couple of tries of connecting and disconnecting the tether devices.
Thank you!

Hey, I bought my note 2 last Wednesday and since day one its been dropping calls, well kind off. when i answer a call few seconds or minutes the phone mutes, the call doesnt really drop but the sound on both sides of the line mutes. untill i hang up and call again. i can hace full bars and still happens... i believe its a software glitch or something. hopefully samsung fix this before i return this phone next week.

There are some serious flaw in the software/hardware in this phone. I have been able to replicate this problem with 100% success. Just go and turn hotspot on, and tell someone to call you, soon enough the phone will hang up the call.
I'm thinking hard of just not needing such a big screen and go for a nexus 4 instead.

I have experienced this problem with almost every network and phone.... Not necessarily the T-mobile app but tethering apps in general... Even if your device supports data and voice I have experienced this with pretty much all apps but I don't know if it's just me or what.... I don't really have a problem with it as I don't accept calls when I'm tethering anyways... Just my .02 cents

Well, for me its slightly different....
1. Wifi calling enabled and activated (blue icon)
2. if someone calls me 5, 10 , 15 min etc... later, the caller hears silence and the phone does not ring.
3. happens every damn time. I plan on calling tmobile about this....
4. the only time it works is if i make an outbound call, and within a couple mins someone can call me.. but if the phone sits there for more than a few min.. nobody can call me.
I was in a call when someone else called in and the phone froze up happend several times im really considering returning this phone

This problem happens randomly if I call someone or if someone calls me my phone rings and I answer the phone and its silent I cant hear the other person and the other person can't hear me usually to fix this I reboot the phone or take the battery out and sometimes it doesn't even work. I'm not sure what kind of problem this is when I first bought the phone I had no problems like this with it I rooted it and put a variety of different Custom ROMS on my phone and thats when the problem started occurring. Can anyone give me any ideas are things I can do to fix this problem, do i need to update my Radio or should I restore it back to the way it was ? Has anyone else on this forum experience something like this ? Anyways I hope someone can help me out thanks in advance.
Hi,
From time to time, my friends inform me that they have called me and I haven't call them back!
No incoming phone calls, no missed calls, no nothing!!! It happens some times. I was not sure what the problem was until I lost my phone at home. I called it once... I was hearing the tone on the phone, but my phone was not ringing!!! After finding it... there was no missed call !!
My phone is on the latest 6.0.1 update, it is unrooted and bootloader is locked! I rarely use data so it is off all the time I am not using the phone. WiFi is always off. When not using it, I put it in power saving mode. I don't know if the power saving mode is the culprit or not.
I have seen that this has happened to other phones like Nexus 5. I have read that a quick fix for this is to change the preferences from LTE to 3g but I don't know if this works on Nexus 5x or not!
Does anyone else have this problem?
I have the same issue - randomly some calls go straight to voicemail. This is very difficult to test as there doesn't seem to be any consistent rule to it.
Which network carrier do you have? Fi?

Hi, i had the same problem yesterday, after flashing a new rom and gapps, i think beacuse the android dialer goes in conflict whit google dialer...try reflashing stock rom if you are on custom or do a factory reset and try other rom.
