Hey guys, I have the phone for a month now and it's really embarrassing, it makes calls automatically while the screen is off idk how but it happened many times I suddenly hear some one saying hello from my pocket also my phone has a lock screen code so its impossible that I touch it. Is there any solution for this problem
Thanks
random contacts? or have you setup Emergency contacts? they can be called from lockscreen..

If you are on the phone and get a 2nd call on call waiting you can answer it and the phone will automatically put the first call on hold. Say you tell the 2nd caller you will call them back and then want to switch back to 1st call. If you press "End" it hangs up on both callers. If you press "Menu" there is an option to "Hang up all calls" or something similar which again does the same thing I don't want. I can't find a way to just hang up on ONE call. Is this a bug or am I just missing something?
Ok, so no one uses the phone feature of the EVO? No one has ever had a call come though on call waiting?
Can anyone just help me verify whether this problem is just my own or happens for everyone?
Press talk to switch back
You can't hang up on the held caller only

Thanks for the reply. I don't want to hang up on the held caller, but I want to hang up on the active caller. Every other HTC phone I've used in the last 5 years will hang up on the active caller and then switch you back to the held caller. Did they really mean for it to hang up on both at once? Does anyone else's phone do this?
My understanding is that this is some limitation of CDMA. All my sprint/verizon phones have had this same issue.
Every Sprint phone I've had has been this way. I think it is an issue with their network and not the phone itself. There is no way to hang up on just one of the callers.
Thanks everyone. The carrier is the problem then. I was with AT&T before this phone and never had Sprint before. Not a huge fan, but its ok.
That is really annoying because I'm constantly hanging up on my friends when my girlfriend decides to call and tell me some lame story that happened to her.

Sounds to me like you need a new girlfriend
Cool, Thanks for the info guys. I thought my Evo was retarded or something.
Got the same problem here on my evo also had three problem on my hero...
Question though will it burn up minutes with both calls sitting there?
Ive had where I was done with one call and switched back to thee one that was on hold the whole time just to heat their voice mail giving me options

A few times now i've noticed that if i'm in the middle of trying to send a text or email and a phone call comes in (and I answer)..the person on the other end can barely hear me and any sound comes out all "robotic". I've been wondering if this is an issue or if it's just a "bug" on my phone. Anyone else noticed this?

After 30 minutes of going through posts in this forum trying to look for a solution, and apparently I couldn't find what I was looking for, I've decided to create this post.
Something really weird started happening to my arc recently. Whenever there's an incoming call (call waiting) while I'm talking on the phone, everything gets muted immediately. I cannot hear the other party, and vice versa. Even though I answer the call waiting call, we couldn't hear each other at all. I had to reject the call waiting call in order to be "connected" with the current call again. At first I thought it was some carrier, reception issues, but it's not. The bars were full and I've tried restarting the phone, but it didn't help. I was wondering if anyone has the same issue after upgrading to 2.3.3 and how did you fix this? I didn't notice anything like this before I upgraded. Any help is appreciated!

Do you have the Viber app installed? I saw somewhere that some phones react like this because of Viber.
Sorry I don't seem to have noticed that either and I recieved a call waiting bleep while I was on a call just yesterday
I can confirm its the Viber app, I just uninstalled it and the problem is gone!

Yes, I can confirm this as well, but the problem is fixed on the latest version of Viber. Happy with regular call and Viber now. Thanks to everyone who tried to help
Hi,
Anyone experiencing the phones to vibrate upon sms or call and a 1-2 secs lag with sound? I don't know what I did to the phone, but I just noticed this happening.
Thanks,
Peter

Yep, but it doesn't bother me, I don't use SMS
I've had the phone since launch, but I dont recall any of this lag before. Wonder if it is something that I've installed or done
so pretty much im laying down talking on the phone and during the call all of a sudden the other person cant hear me, i can hear them but they cant hear me. so at first i thought its the signal, but i have full bars. then i turned off the option where if you place your phone facing down that itll mute, but the problem continues. so today i noticed that when that happens, i leave the phone where it is, press the speaker option and it works! so it isnt the signal! can any body tell me if its a setting im missing or is it something i should take it back to the att store?
are you sure the screen is shutting off? perhaps your cheek is hitting the mute/unmute icon (speaker icon)?
Ive had this exact problem for the last year with my s4. Always assumed it was something with the gyro inside. Its really annoying

I faced the same problem once, last week. But I just ignored it, imagining it would be something to do with bad network. I should try to simulate the issue again and see if it's persistent..
Maybe try turning off the motion options in the settings? I turned those off right when I got the phone and I haven't had this issue.

To be honest ive wondered that myself, but even tho i havent checked, last night when it occurredto me to try and press the speaker button to see if it will work (which it did) it did not have the mute button pressed... so because of last night, id have to go with no, it isnt pressed and the screen is black

No, loke i said... that feature was turned on then i turned it off having the same effect
So anyone know a fix or know if i should take it to att for a replacement ?
issue I'm having is odd...I think it correlates to Bluetooth, but still working with advanced tech support. when I change towers, whether I receive or make a call, the phone drops all connection and says "out of service area". then comes right back. seems better without Bluetooth, but still happens. tech has no answers yet. already replaced sim twice and registered phone several times.
EDIT: I turned on the UTMS HD Voice using the hidden diagnostic menu and after 5 test calls today, no drops. Not sure if it is coincidence or something else...
Experiencing call issues too

I've also been experiencing similar issues, 2 issues in particular
1. During a call, I suddenly can't hear the other person or they suddenly can't hear me and I have to end the call and call back
2. I attempt to place a call, it rings and then when the other party picks up I hear nothing, they hear nothing. I sometimes have to call twice or three times before there's a successful call and I hear them and them hear me.
These issues occur randomly, with and without bluetooth. I've tried factory resetting the phone but the problem has continued.
I purchased my phone from Amazon.

I've used that menu but when clicking on the UMTS option nothing happens? How'd you select anything? Thanks

I didn't notice any sound difference when setting the UTMS HD Voice to "enabled". Did you see the two options for "enable/disable"?

Yea I found them last night, I'd missed them somehow before. I have it enabled but haven't noticed anything as far as being more clear or a specific icon on the screen. I remember having seen another thread on this, maybe it was in the Verizon forum, that stated the UTMS was not even the right network option to enable the HD though? Does anybody know for sure?
