Phone slow to answer, dial, and hang up. - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok so this has been going on for a little while now. Sometimes it pretty much goes away and other times its really bad like today.
The problem is that when I go to call someone and press call, it will take a while to start ringing, and sometimes it won't even rung and I'll just start hear the person on the other end start talking.
Then the second issue is when I go to answer an incoming call. I can swipe the answer button over to answer it, and it will slide over but won't answer. I can slide it over a couple times and eventually it will answer. But sometimes by the time it does, it goes to voice mail.
And finally, when I go to hang up a call, I press the end button and it won't hang up right away. I can tap it a bunch of times and it will just hang up once it wants to.
Has anyone else had this issue and how did you solve if. I'm running stock rooted 5.1.1, it hasn't always done this so I know it's likely not related to the root process.

Any ideas?

I have the same issue. Running PaulPizz rom 5.1.1 rooted RE

Does anyone else have this phone problem:

Sometimes when I get a phone call, I answer by pressing the answer hardware button and instead of answering it cancels the call. It's so annoying, is there a workaround?
I haven't had that problem, but I would suggest that if you hope for anyone to help you, you should change the title of your post to something like "Phone hangs up pressing hard answer button".

Ya i get the same problem... Honestly i think it has happened to me when i have been in the middle of doing something like playing a game, writing an email, etc.... and then the calls come through, and cause there arent enough resources the phone crashes and fails to answer.
Happens to me, too, but as mentioned above I don't think it's an issue with the button....usually it's when I'm syncing.
I HATE it, too!!! Activesync sucks up all resources and even though I see the screen pop up with a call (before it even rings), I press answer and it doesn't respond for 5-10 seconds and the call is gone.
That burns me up. I wish there were some dedicated CPU cycles for the phone app in there somewhere.

End Call -> Home Screen

Maybe it's just me but I would like to go to my home screen when I end a call instead of back to the dialer/phone. I searched but couldn't find anything on that.
Anyone know how to do this or care to figure it out?
This is too easy....press the hardware End key?
You may want to elaborate if this isn't what you're after...

I take it you're like me and you spam the end key about 5 times at the end of a call?

Ok now I feel stupid. Thanks though, I would probably never have thought of that on my own.
Is it possible to get the onscreen end key to do the same?
I made a post with a similar problem a while back and had no replies to fix it.
The contents are as follows:
Tilt2, End call, looking at contacts! Why?
Tilt2: If i get a call and hit the end call button, why am i left looking at my contacts. It ONLY happens on incoming calls. If i end call on a call i made, from within my contacts, it goes back to the main screen!

My problem is that i use spb mobile shell and after i end the call, the phone relocks. When i later unlock the phone, i am still looking at the contacts.
Ok I don't feel so stupid. Hardware key does the exact same thing as soft key. Phone isn't fast enough to hit it twice in succesion and lock the screen in one fluid motion so I go back to my original request.
Anyone know how to get it to go from end call (soft or hard butotn) directly to home screen instead of to the dialer?

Not sure if it has anythign to do with it or not, but might it have something to do with the phone asking if you want to add them to your contacts and maybe you are inadvertantly hitting somethign sending you to your contacts?
I've not had any issue with it pulling up my contacts unless I accidently hit something.
Whoops, should read:

Im am positive i am not hitting anything on the screen because sometimes i hit the talk and speaker phone, then use the end call button. We have 2 of these and both do the same thing. It only happens if the phone was locked to start with. If the phone is not locked (figured this out playing them), once i end the call, the contacts screen will go away in 10 seconds or so.

Try this. Hit the End key and then the Back key in quick succession. This will bring you to your last opened window. If you didn't have any active windows, this will bring you back to your home screen.

Cant put a call on hold

During a call, when I have somebody calling me on other line, and if try to put first call on hold to answer second one, my phone freezes.
Can anybody help me with this, or I will have to do hard reset?
This problem showed up few weeks ago, so it might have to do something with some applications.
I have something similar, when I'm on a call and I get a second call. When I end the second call I have no way of getting back to the first call.

Strange Call Screen

I took the 8.1.0 update a few weeks ago. The only issue I'm having is the call screen shows up and only the end call button is showing. Weird weird weird. Like my phone is making secret calls while I'm out and about but when I pully phone out and unlock the screen, it shows up for a second then disappears or goes away when I hit the end call button. Google didn't help me find a whole lot on this issue. Anyone ever heard of this before?

my screen is not turning on during call

Hi . here is my problem. When I'm on a call (does not matter whether I receive or make call), my screen turns off when I have it near my ear. That is fine and I understand it.
However when I take phone away from my ear and would like to end the call, the screen does not turn on. There is no way to turn it on from my end. No button helps. As a results, I cannot end call (or do anything else) unless the other party ends call.
The only help here is to hold power button long enough so the phone restarts.
if the other party ends call, my phone works fine.
Can anybody help me to solve this?
Thank you for any advice
I had a similar problem when I replaced my screen. I followed this and it has been working fine ever since.
Hope it works for you!
EDIT : [DELETE]
Sorry, same thing has been linked.
calibrated, will check after some use. Thank you guys
it works
