In the last month or so my SMS has not been working properly. My phone doesn't send or receive all of my text messages. I will be sitting next to a friend and watch them send me a text and I will never receive it. It isn't every single text but it happens too often and is quickly becoming a big deal. It has been happening for the past month or so, which coincidentally is when I started using q Sense 3.0 rom. I have no idea if this is what caused it though. I also have problems where when my phone turns off, whether I restart it or if it dies, and I turn it back on it sends random old texts to random people.
Any insights on either of these two problems would be greatly appreciated.
Well since you said it kinda started to coincide with when you put that ROM on... try a different ROM for a while and see if it starts to work or not. That would be the first thing I would try.
So my phones having weird issues, I'm using CM9 and didn't find anything like i'm having.
Sometimes when I go to make a call, it will go past dialing and give me the call time and at like 5 seconds before i hear a ring it will drop. Like before the call goes out it will just drop, usually i will just try once or twice more and it wil work. As well i have been getting calls where it will ring once then stop like they just hung up.
Today i had a time where i couldn't get any calls to go out, i tried like 10 times then i restarted the phone and it worked. Anyone have any ideas or things to try?
Howdy pards!
Got a rooted E4GT running Supernexus for about the last 2 months give or take.
All has been well until about 2 weeks ago (thereabouts), I started noticing my callers and I could not hear each other for about the first 10 secs of the call.
The delay is just long enough that it usually convinces caller they should hang up .
It happens a lot but not every time. I'd say half my calls.
My phone is integrated with Google Voice. That has had some delays but usually just small latencies (coudld still hear) and I haven't had that problem in a good year or two now.
Outgoing calls are fine usually. No delays like this.
Some things I have wondered is if it could be the PRL that needs to be updated?
And if it is, should try an update? Is that safe when running an AOSP ROM? (Doesn't seem like it would be so I haven't.)
(Corollary question: are there other updates that people typically do that folks like me should avoid?)

Any ideas?
Dear XDA community,
Recently my LG G4 H818 (dual sim) started causing troubles after 8 monthes of use. Everything started a week ago, when during the call I couldn't hear the other person. The other person could hear me well. It didn't matter if I was calling or I was receiving a call. It didn't depend of which sim I was using, call sounds from both sims were silent. After reboot this issue was resolved. Temporarily... After couple days everything started again and again reboot helped.
Yesterday, after regular reboot due to this issue, my phone showed an error - "Process isn't responding. Do you want to close it?". This is where nightmare started. Everything froze or started lagging badly, I couldn't unlock the phone, I couldn't launch any app, even notification drawer was not coming down, the phone was useless. I could receive calls, but I couldn't pickup (phone freezes instantly). When I tried to launch an app, it would say "This app isn't responding. Do you want to close it?" before freezing for couple minutes. It was happening to every single app (Phone, Contacts, Shazam, Whatsapp, etc.). I barely managed to save my data to pc using usb cable and decided to hard reset (erase all, format data, etc.).
After hard reset, during the first launch everything seemed ok, no lags, no errors... BUT this morning I received a call, picked it up and sound was missing again. I did the reboot and now I'm back again to freezing, huge lagging, errors, and phone is useless.
Everything is stock, latest Androd 6.0 is installed. Not rooted, bootloader is locked - I have not done any changes to the firmware at all. I did drop it once on the hard floor (only once) after a month of purchase, but until last week everything was working ok. I must mention that battery wasn't lasting long enough, but it might be due to my heavy use (9GAG, Chrome, Corporate email app, gaming sometimes) - charging 3-4 times in 2 days.
Has anybody faced same issue? Can anybody help me? Couldn't find any results on google and on forum here. Please help.
P.S. rooting and installing a different ROM is not an option, since dual sim LG's have limited available custom ROMs. Also, I use a corporate email app that cannot be installed on rooted phones (it is really annoying).
Thanks in advance!
Some update. It turns out speakers and microphone works if on speakerphone. If I switch back to headset, sound dissappears. Seems like more of a software problem, than hardware.
anyone?

Have you been able to fix it? Since I updated my H815 firmware's, I have been having same issue.
Pixel 2 XL Issues Dialer extremely slow & Deafening notification beeps during calls
*Copy/pasted from the Pixel 2 forum. Whoops!*
Hi all,
I had a quick search on the forums but couldn't find anything related to this. I'm unsure if it's a problem with just the Pixel 2 XL or Android. I've installed all OTA updates and the phone is running 8.1.0. It had both of these errors prior to updating. I have also replaced the entire handset and tested again. Still occurring. I have a Pixel 2 also, which does NOT experience these issues. I'm also running stock, no root/roms. *edit* I went through Google support for both issues, they couldn't find any solutions. They suggested a factory reset and then replaced the handset.
The dialer:
Intermittent problem. Basically when you open the dialer or a contact and initiate a call, the app often freezes for an indeterminate amount of time. It could be 10 seconds it could be over a minute. Eventually it will move to the "call" screen and then freezes/lags again. Once more this can be any length of time up to a minute or more. All other apps work perfectly fine during this process. Eventually the call initiates and you can hear it ring, once in call everything behaves normally.
The notifications:
This one is simple. During a call receiving an SMS or other notification results in an electronic beep sound which plays at full volume. It does the same thing after the call ends. I'm not sure if it's using call or external speakers as the volume is so damn loud it doesn't matter. It legitimately causes me to throw the phone away from my ear and I cannot hear anything besides buzzing for 20 minutes. It actually hurts.
Nothing I do has stopped this except to turn on DND before I make or receive a call, which is useless. I read a few other threads about this being a new feature in 8.1.0 and "intentional". However I think those are referring to the call end beep, or notifications during a call that make the designated notification sound, not a deafening beep. The threads I read suggested removing third party apps and phone permissions, I used a brand new handset and the beeps still happened.
Please does anyone have a suggestion? I'll try anything at this point.
I have noticed a similar problem that has cropped up recently - I cant make consecutive calls. If I hang up from a call and then try to make another the phone sits there. The phone button animates but doesn't do anything. If I try 20 seconds later it will sit there for about 10 seconds and then make the call. If I wait about two or so minutes it will work. Incoming calls are different.. if I am in that "period" of time, the phone will ring and if I am not in the phone app - meaning the incoming call screen pops up - I can answer it. If its a heads up incoming call I cant answer it. I must turn the screen off and then back on to get to the full screen to answer it. I am on 17.0.186697879 which I believe is the latest.
I've had the delayed calling problem for almost 2 months. The problem also includes sometimes not being able to answer a call from the notification shade when the screen was already on. Toggling airplane mode alleviates the problem temporarily.
There's a lengthy thread in the OG pixel threads with the many users with the problem. Also a lengthy thread on one of the Google support threads. Someone there suggested it had something to do with the mlb at bat app. I think that has since been debunked. I haven't found a solution yet and Google hasn't made an official acknowledgement yet.
This issue suddenly appeared on my Pixel 2 couple of days ago. Tried all the hacks and solution, but even turning off all the knobs in the phone permissions screen didn't help.
I have android 8.1.0
