[Q] Call Answer Lag/Delay

Hi,
For long time i'm having some issue with calls voice.
Sometimes when i answer a call, i can hear the caller but he cant hear me for the first 5~ sec.
After that time (5~ sec) everything continue just as regular.
The issue is with me trough few Roms and Radio's.
Currently i'm with LeeDroid 2.0a and latest radio. non branded phone.
Anyone saw same ?

This sounds more like a problem with your provider (the phone company). Try finding a friend with a different company SIM, put it in your phone and see what happens: call people on your own provider, other providers, landlines, etc. assuming you know who is using what.
PS Since you rooted it, I assume you have also unlocked it if that was necessary, or maybe that comes for free, I really don't know, I bought mine unlocked
PS2 Putting a SIM in another phone may have the side effect of modifying some of its data (e.g. truncating contact names if they are too long for the new phone, deletion of non-standard data such as Calendar info). I don't know how the Desire behaves in this respect.

Hi,
A. I have SIMFREE device
B. Same provider worked like charm for 11 years now with every other phone.
C. I've saw some topics about same issue, just no one came to solution.

[Q] Vodafone NL???

ISSUE RESOLVED
Hi guys, I don't actually own this phone but I'm asking this on behalf of a friend. I've searched everywhere, including google, and have not found an answer.
Recently my friend's phone underwent a weird change. According to him, he was in class one day and had absolutely no service because it was in a basement. When he left the class though, his phone stopped displaying the Verizon name, in both the status bar and everywhere you would normally see it. Instead, it now seems to say that his service provider is Vodafone NL, which according to my research is a Netherlands based phone provider.
We live in NYC though so that's a bit of a problem. He is able to make phone calls sometimes, but he is apparently unable to send or receive texts, and cannot access any data.
He's waiting a day or two to see if it fixes itself, but he intends to take it to Verizon to have them check it out eventually if there's nothing. Anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
His phone is completely stock btw, no mods or root or anything.
UPDATE: Nevermind, I managed to resolve it for him by having him switch to CDMA and then having him scan networks for Verizon again. That seemed to fix it. Still no idea what caused it to switch to Vodafone though...

[Q] Multiple SMS receiving problem

Hi,
I've got a little problem with my Gnex, sometimes during 15min I receive all my SMS's three or four times, from different senders. the messages are duplicated.
I tried one or two times a complete reset with factory image (then apply root, busybox, etc..) using the gnex toolkit. I also changed providers (SFR -> Orange France) recently, and now I use SMS app provided with ParanoidAndroid.
It occured using different ROM's, including stock if I remember right. I have PRIMELC03 bootloader, lastest radio XXLH1 and latest RIL also.
Now the point : can it be a hardware-related problem ? Do I have to send it to Samsung ?
Regards

Has this just started happening since you changed providers?
I had that issue a few years ago where any of my friends on Telus sending me a message to my Rogers phone would make me receive duplicates. It had nothing to do with the phone, and the carriers resolved it after a couple of months.
You might want to see if anyone else on Orange France has the issue, and maybe contact them about it.

It happened even with my previous providers.
I think it may be bad covered in 3G even if the phone displays 3 signal strength bars... I'll check again.

[Q] HTC ONE X phone number unreadable after upgrade to 4.2.2

Hi everyone,
I seem to be facing a problem that I haven't found discussed here with my phone.
Following a successful upgrade to Slimbean 4.2.2 build 6 OFFICIAL, everything seems to be working correctly with my Tmobile UK SIM card and I can make or receive calls and texts, I can read the IMEI reference but for some reason my phone number is not displayed anymore in the "about phone" section in Settings or if I use an app like "SIM Card" to read the details of the SIM. I get instead the message "unknown number"
I am not sure if this is a problem or not, so I would like to know if anyone can think of any potential limitation due to this issue.
On top of this, I am about to move abroad and was going to request a code from Tmobile to unlock the phone as I assumed the phone was locked to their network, but when I tried a THREE SIM card, the card was actually accepted and I connected to that network but again the phone number is not displayed in the settings section...
Has anybody seen or heard a similar issue?
I installed a fresh Slimbean ROM from scratch as I was previously running a completely different ROM and I assume it was successful as everything seems to be working.
The only issues I could find in the forum were related to not being able to retrieve the IMEI number after the upgrade, but nothing about the phone number itself.
I would be very grateful if anyone could offer any help or suggestion.
Thank you in advance.
David.

I have noticed the same thing on the official CM 10.1 builds (with both Three UK and giffgaff SIMs), I suspect it is an issue but it's not a real bother to me all it means that any app that auto detects your phone number (eg hangouts) will just ask for it during initial setup instead.
Again the same for the IMEI sometimes this doesn't show up but it does most of the time.

Thanks Hydo1,
I have found a couple of things yesterday.
First, I have been able to add the number manually through the settings menu in the dial pad and it now shows in the "about" section.
Second, I have found out that although my voicemail is setup and active when I call the Tmobile services, it doesn't actually work anymore and I can only guess it is due to this issue as it was working before...
I'll try again once I have switched to a new network abroad...

Texting issues, particularly with iPhone users

Asking this for a friend who has an S9. I have an S10, so I have some familiarity, but we're still fighting with the problem. Here's the story:
He was on TMobile. I suggested he try changing to Total Wireless (Verizon MVNO) as I have had good luck with them. He switched and things were working fine for a few weeks.
Nothing on the phone was changed, but then about 2 weeks ago, his text messages weren't going through, particularly to iPhone users. Normally, we'd think this is a problem on the iPhone side, but nothing changed there either (his wife's iPhone)... in addition, this happened with multiple iPhone users, so it's not just one person...
We've done a ton of digging, contacted the carrier, they contacted VZ for help, tried different apps (stock, Google Messages, etc)... no one has been able to figure out the solution. The most recent finding was that the stock Samsung messaging app works fine for all users, but GMessages continues to have problems. With regard to GMessages, we have checked and confirm that iPhone users are getting detected at "SMS/MMS" and not RCS, so that doesn't appear to be the issue either.
APN settings match what I have (I have no problems with my S10 with any users - iPhone or otherwise).
Only remaining thing I can see is that his phone is seeing a CSC of TMB/XAA/SPR (mine is TFN/TFN/SPR). I think it could be due to the TMB/XAA he's seeing, but the carrier thinks this is not the issue. His ROM is showing up as SM-G960U_OYN_TMB.... I wonder if it's because it's U (instead of U1) so it's unable to switch to TFN?
Anyone else have any ideas on what could be going on here? Since the stock app works, it seems it's not a carrier issue... but I still don't get why that would fail to work on GMessages when it works fine on the stock messaging app?
Any ideas appreciated. We're quite technical and able to do all sorts of things (ODIN flashing, etc)... so nothing is off the table. Just trying to figure out how to fix this.

Bump - no one has any ideas or theories? I'm in brainstorming mode, so no idea is not worth trying!
