Hey Guys,
anybody experience the phone not ring when incoming calls? I have to reboot the phone for it to start ringing again. I got the phone during X-mas for my mom but she complains about that. lol... But i have no idea what causes it. It stock and happens with wifi calling on and off. i checked apps and she doesnt have anything different i would have.. I might just flash a custom rom on it.
thanks

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
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?

At first I thought the rom I flashed on my GS2X was screwed so I flashed a stock rom and found the same was happening. Sometimes when a call comes in the phone does not ring and appears to be in silent mode when it is not?
Anyone know of some 'feature' that may be causing this?

You could try something, and I know itl sound weird but,
Change your ringtone, I had it happen to me a few times when I tested some of the roms on here..
That usually helped for me.
Or simply to you have motion on? Lol if so turning it upside down mutes it lmfao
Go to settings>MOTION>turn over to mute xD
And if that is it, I'm not gonna pick on ye, my buddy was wining about the same thing couple months ago n it was that, he got it for a few weeks.. I had my fun..
Thanks. I use phoneweaver to automatically change ringers and volume levels based on location etc and I think the settings aren't 'sticking' properly. I have never had issues until now on this phone. I noticed when this app changes the screen brightness even though the new value is shown in settings it has not actually changed. Maybe the same thing was happening on the ringer? The last time a call came in with no ring I quickly rebooted without changes and it rang when I called the phone so who knows...
I'll test further.
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.
