I recently purchased and rooted my S6 with PingPongRoot/SuperSU and ever since the dialer/phone has been acting...off. When i go to place a call using the phone app or truedialer, it WILL place the call, but the dialer screen will not show up. Meaning i cant hit speaker phone, i cant "press 1 for english" nor can i end calls and hang up. So far it is the only flaw with the phone. Has anyone had similar problems or any experience on how to fix it?

I was trying to call an automated voice system up today and was asked to enter my phone number in. I hit the "keypad" button and instead of the keypad opening up the Note application opened up. I had to click on the "ok" button in the top right corner to close that and to get back to the regular keypad so that I might enter my number in.
Is there any way to change this? I had an HTC TyTN II for two years and I never utilized the phone call notes feature on that phone. Given that, I'm very confident I'm never going to be using it on this phone and yet that's what first pops up when I hit the "keypad" button.
Any ideas as to what I can do to fix this?
You can set the phone to open Notes when in a call simply by pulling out the stylus. It is in Phone Settings- Advanced tab.
i understand your concern, occasionally my cheek would open up notes while on a call and type random stuff. I don't find it annoying enough to disable it but at the same time i've never used the notes during a phone call feature.
Dont know if theres a way of disabling it but maybe if u dig around in the register and search for "notes.exe" or whatever the notes app is named u might find something relative.
On my Droid Incredible/Gingerbread I could configure whether the phone went to the call log or not after a call, but my Galaxy Nexus 4.0.2 always goes to the call log - this is especially annoying when I'm using the phone to navigate and get a call, when the call ends you don't just go back to the navigation. Anyone see a way to configure this that I missed?
Definitely interested in this as well
There is an app called "Not Call Log" which can take you to the home screen, dialer or open an app after hanging up. If you use Tasker, you can also set it to do anything with a "phone idle" condition (that may not make sense if you're not familiar with tasker).

Even though the call log appears, i believe the activity stack is is still maintained meaning after your call ends just press back twice, the second leaves the call log back to your prior activity.
I'm sorry if this was already asked and answered.
As the header says, I find no way to add an incoming call to the current call I'm in.
Scenario:
I'm talking to Caller1, Caller2 calls and I accept.
Issue:
1. All I can do is switch between the calls. There is no way to merge the calls. All I see four buttons [Dial pad, Speaker, Mic & Add call]. When I press 'Add call', it takes me to the initial dialpad/contacts screen.
2. There is no way for me to say which call I'm in. All it says is 'In call', the UI doesn't change when I press the swap button.
3. This is the biggest issue of all, you can not 'end' any one line with other line on hold. If you press the end button, both the lines get cut and a new call comes through from the on hold line.
Googled it and found nothing, either I'm missing something or no one seams to care.
Thanks in advance.
I've never been able to do this on Verizon. One thing I miss from my one year stint on T-Mobile.

This was working great in Razr, I don't think its a Verizon miss but a ICS issue. Though I might be wrong.
Can someone with a GSM GN please try this and let us know?
thanks
Bump. Have never been able to make this work on VZW with any device. Curious if it's possible.
must be a verizon issue.
i have a GSM GN on t-mobile running 4.02 and when i have two calls on, the right most button changes from the add call to a merge symbol and when pressing it it merges the two calls. Just tested this right now since i wasn't sure if i had done a merge on the GN yet.
Has anyone else had a problem with the Optimus G being more prone to accidental 911 calls so far? It's happened to me three times in the last week, more than my Galaxy S2 did in 2 years.
Obviously somehow the power button is activating the screen, and then pressure on the screen is activating the Emergency dial key. But why this phone and not the S2 or my Nexus One before? I've asked nottach if the emergency dial key can be changed from single button to something else in The Base ROM, but I suspect this is hardcoded.
I have never ass dialed anything in ever. With any phone.
I opened a text message by accident when the phone was in my pocket. Now I disable screen wake when receiving a text. The phone was in my front pocket. This is the first phone to do this. Probably because when I used iPhones I had to slide to open things and not just tap.

I have never actually had a 911 call placed, but i have noticed that on a number of occasions the standard lock screen buttons disappear (the call, text, browser, camera ones at the bottom of the screen) and are replaced by the dial emergency button. I have yet to figure out what causes this to happen or found any way to force it to happen.

The only time i have ever seen emergency dial on any phone is from no service. Is it possible youre losing signal or your sim is not fully inserted?
Never happened to me.
Please ask all questions in Q&A. Thread moved there.
Isn't emergency dial the only other button available on the pattern lock screen when the screen wakes up?
I've used pattern lock for my lock screen since the Nexus One and never had a problem with accidental 911 calls before.

When somebody calling me and I pick up, I can make conversation but phone is stuck on ringing mode, and after few moments hang up phone call, and I have missed call...

That's weird, I did never face this issue but my A2L is relatively new (1 week only).
I'll try to phone to my own A2L using different devices to see if I face this issue.

Yes, it is very weird and annoying. Not happens every time, but sometimes... ?
This happened to me yesterday for the first time, but I thought that was a problem of the person that was calling me.
It was a number I didn't have in my contacts, and after the bug I immediately called back that number, but it was not available.
I thought the person that was calling me had a very low battery charge and while calling me his phone turned off, causing the bug (because immediately after the bug it was unavailable).
To this date I still did not have this problem.
Me too, i cant answer and reject calls when i upgrade to android pie
Solved: Screen not turning on with incoming calls
Step 1: Go to Dialer or Phone app settings. To do so, you can either go to main settings, then open ‘Apps’, and then scroll down to Dialer or Phone App.
You can also access App Info page by long pressing the app icon, and then tapping the App info option or the small ‘i’ icon in the corner.
Step 2: Now select “App notifications” option and turn it "on"
Step 3: Now if App notifications are turned off, your display won’t wake up when someone calls you. Also if only the “Incoming calls” permission is off, your screen will not light up with incoming calls. Make sure required permissions are turned on and your issue will be fixed.
Xiaomi Mi 2 Lite. I cannot get incoming calls to show on my screen, so I can't answer. Tried switching notifications off and on again, tried forcing stop. Two days ago I did a factory reset and was OK for 2 days. I think this is since latest Android update about a 10 days ago.
Call answer bug
I have similar issue on Mi A1, been going for a while. Sometimes, call comes in, the answer key cannot pick and cannot reject the call. This happened after a certain update I just dont know which. I have noticed that this mostly happens at some particular GSM antennas, sometimes, just by moving away from that antenna (that's when in a car) solves the problem. But as long as I remained in that location at that time, i cannot pick or reject calls, I also can't make calls, I get the promt, network problem, even though the service bars r showing. And in some cases the people calling will tell me, that calls to me are not going through.
This is driving me nuts. When I get a phone call I get a bar at the top of the screen with two buttone, one saying Decline and the other sayng Answer. I can tap on it like a demented woodpecker, but nothing happens. If Itry to swipe it, the two buttons just disappear into a void and the phone keeps ringing with no way to answer. Very, very occasionally I get the normal notification that I can swipe to answer, but I have to phone nearly everybody back.
