[Still awaiting solution] Cannot call from my Fuze, need urgent help. - Touch Pro, Fuze General

Suddenly today, around an hour ago, I found out that I am not able to call from my Fuze. I can dial, but I don't hear any ring of the number I am calling. I put the SIM card in other phone and it can make calls. I am now sure what is wrong, could someone please provide some much needed suggestions?
I wouldn't have opened this thread as a new issue, and even if later it gets moved, I am seeking some urgent help, so I am posting it as a thread. Thanks.

Did you check in the comm manager to see if you turned airplane mode on or turned the radio off?

Yes, I did and the Airplane mode is off and the Radio is on. Somehow, not being able to call has coincided with not being able to connect to 3G too. The problem happened all of as sudden. I even made some calls this morning from my Fuze, and suddenly, it just would not make any more calls from it. Any more suggestions? I really don't want to hard reset it, as I have so much customization on it. Thanks.

i would backup and preform a HR to make sure it's hardware related

is the speaker bad? does the phone work on speakerphone?
does the call fail?

Agreed do a hard reset...if that doesnt work its the phone itself and a warranty issue. Which AT&T will take care of

I want to avoid a hard reset; I did it just last week. I understand why you would suggest to do that, but I want to avoid it, if I can.
The speakers work just fine; I played music. While on a call, I can't hear anything. The call seems to be in progress, but no party can hear anything. I haven't spoken to any person I called to verify if they received my call. If this could be something to do with radio, is there a way to deal with it? I am using everything stock. Please keep your suggestions coming.

The music and the speaker form calling are not the same, does it work on speakerphone?

Thanks for your response scotchua. The speakerphone was not working, to answer your question.
Update: I can make calls now.
But, instead of closing this thread, I would like to keep it alive, as I don't know what created the problem and what solved it. As I said, when I couldn't make calls, the data connection was not getting established either. If it was a problem with the connection or AT&T's tower, I would not have been able to make calls when I inserted my sim card into another phone. For about 6 - 7 hours, I had to use another phone, which does not have the features that Fuze has.
later in the evening, I put the sim cad back into Fuze, just to try if it worked, and it did work; I can make calls now. This actually complicates the problem, as I don;t know what caused it and it scares me that this can happen again and I, or anyone else who would be having a similar problem, will not know how to fix it. If keeping this thread alive does not seem like a waste of time to the community, please provide more suggestions regarding what may have caused the problem. Thanks.

i had the same problem with my fuze. I could not hear from the phone when making a call, but i could hear from the speakerphone. I reset the phone, changed ROM and tried everything. Nothing worked so I had to return the phone for a replacement.

VOIP software hangs phone

Hi,
I bought the Excalibur and the Vox 'cause I though it would have been great being able to place VOIP calls from my phone, using the same setup I use with my ATA.
The files to enable VOIP and MS phones have been circulating since a while, but even though I tried couple of packages I still have some issues.
The problem I have is that, for some strange reason, when the VOIP cab is installed my phone sometimes loses "Calling and receiving" capability.
Sometimes I trie to place a phone call and the phone hangs, I can only switch it off and on again. Sometimes I even have to remove the SD card otherwise it will keep doing a Reboot Loop.
Other times I receive an SMS for a missed call, as if I had been offline. When I then try to call back my phone hangs.
This bug seems to affect only the Calls and not the SMS functionality.
Has anybody experienced the same issue?
Thanks,
Ka.
I also have the same problems except for the SD rebooting.
I installed the VOIP client from the workarround posted here and I also experience the same problems:
1) phone seems to work fine until I decide to place a call, when I finish entering the numbers and I hit the Call button, the phone does nothing (not even the beep) and from that point I know that I can't place calls (dial pad doesn't even works on home screen). I have to reboot.
2) I receive SMS from missed incoming calls. If I call my S710 from another phone I get a calling tone and then the answering service, but the S710 does nothing.
I had email accounts configured and I thought this problem was from GPRS not letting GSM calls come in (as it says in other threads) but now I have no active email accounts, no GPRS traffic and it is ever worst (3 to 4 reboots a day!)
I honestly don't remember this problem before VOIP client installed.
Anyone has this simptoms???
I do have the same probs
Probably others aren't experiencing the same because they disable the VOIP when no Wifi is available. I'll try to reinstall the VOIP Cab and try that way.
Bought the S710 for it's VOIP cababilities and possibility to hook it to my PBX and finally feel the freedom of VOIP (Ok, bit exagerating but you get my point ).
Anyway, since we're two at the moment, promised to keep you posted.
Thanks for your help.

Hi there,
sorry for taking so much time. Actually been quite busy lately and well, ok, must admin left this VOIP thing a bit aside.
Anyway, would you mind trying this version, hope it will work a bit better.
Tested with the provider you sent me and it seems to work.
(This is not a Cab Install thing, been packed up in couple of minutes, please unzip it and run it from your mobile.)
I think I'll get back to this so stay tuned for some little enhancements.
Ka.
COOOL.....Works on my modded Tornado with wm06...great!!!!Thanks!!!!
Hello Kast,
After my last post, I unistalled the VOIP software from within the phone's start>Settings>Remove Programs>Sleuth's WM6VoIP
I got this message "Sleuth's WM6VoIP was not completly removed. Do you want to remove it from the list of installed programs?", I didn't remove it.
I then changed the Settings>phone>Internet Calling>"Use Internet Calling" to "Never".
Since then I haven't experienced any troubles at all and I haven't rebooted the phone for some days now! problem solved but no VoIP!
I'll try your VoIP files and see what happends.
Cheers
P.S. My setting for VoIP was "whenever available" but i had WiFi off 99% of the day. (some days even 100%).

Dialing forever on uitgoing calls, and no incoming calls

Every now and then, probably after using it for a couple of days, my TC gets problems with the phone function. First, it will not notify me of incoming calls, these get diverted to the voice mail. Second, when I try to make a call, it starts to dial, but the dialing never succeeds. After a minute or so of dialing it just ends the call.
I found out the following funny thing: when it is dialing, if I push the off-button at that time, the screen goes off and the sound comes on. I'm even properly connected to the person I'm trying to call!! So the connection was already there, I just can't hear anything, neither can the other person, until I push the off-button.
This behaviour doesn't happen all the time, just after a day or so of use. The solution is to soft-reset the device, not really a solution though in my opinion. Switching the phone off and on in the comm.manager doesn't help. Is there any bettter solution? I'm using the standard dutch ROM.
Thanks! Wouter

Does a different radio ROM help?
I'm a bit scared for doing that... It hasn't always been like this, so I'd rather send it back I think.

If it's under warranty, do that!

I'm experiencing exactly the same problem since a week with bepe 0.67 rom.
Please, anyone with the same problem?
sounds a little similar to this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2374406
hopefully that ^ solves the problem
Thanks for your reaction. It's not the same problem though, when my problem occurs it stays. I can never make a phone call normally again anymore, nor receive a call. I have to soft reset.

Do you have Webis Note2Self installed?
I cloned my device's software and settings to a new one from the shelve. After a few days the problem occured again. So it's probably not a hardware problem in my case. With the problem occuring, I changed the phone settings from Auto to GSM and the UMTS settings from Auto to GSM(900+1800)+UMTS(2100), both didn't solve the problem when it was occuring.
Then I opened Memmaid and discovered there was an instance of Note2Self (Webis) under the running processes. I closed that one down and closed Memmaid and then the problem was gone!!
On their forum, other users report about audio issues. I'm looking in to this further. I'm using N2S 2.01 build 2326.
[edit]
Yes! Upgrading to version 2.03 solved my problem! Finally!

Yes, I am!!
I'll upgrade, thanks.
I had the same issue with the standard WM6 ROM thats the whole reason I changed to Diamond R4 ROm, has not happened since then. One thing I did notice is that I had my phone in my hand and it came out of sleepmode by it's self and 3 minutes later after putting it back to sleep I receive a message to say I had voice mail. Now I am thinking that the phone knew a call was comming in but it was to lazy to ring so it just sent it to voice mail. When I tried to call voice mail the phone connected but there was no sound. I had to power cycle the phone for it to work again.

Problem with making calls when roming??

I have this issue with my touch, that, when I make or recieve a call while roming my phone will restart within the first 30 seconds of the call.
Has anyone experienced this or/and know if it can be fixed?
Thanks in advance,
Kris
I worked out why it did it. You in a call then you hear a hissing noise then it reboot itself. Think this is a bug. While roaming in GSM network using EDGE or GPRS you cannot use voice and data together. Only in 3G which data and voice can be use together. The funny thing is the phone does not attemp to stop either voice or data, it just reboots itself.
Wonder there is any solution to this. Currently i just disable data during roaming on GSM network.
Now that I gave it more test......it restarts regardless of data or not......
hrm .. i reflashed the origional rom and spl onto the phone and it seems to work now - unfortuantly i have 2 drive fairly far to test it...
Has anyone else had this issue though?
Kris
I'm getting the same thing (I think), on my Touch Pro (Raphael).
I'm doing more testing to see exactly what is causing this, but it sounds like the same thing you're experiencing.
I wonder if there is some setting in the registry to tell the phone not to attempt to download data whilst on a GPRS connection and a phone call.
I started another thread about this before I found yours.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439850
Same here, are we all on the 3 network?
New firmware may fix it. See post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439983
yes, but I like my RomeOS and mine's a HKK grey import anyway, doesn't have the 3 Software on it, so I'm doubtful if the 3 firmware will fix it... it might of course
interesting, i dont seem to have the same problem even when i am forcing my TP to go on gsm network. hopefully its not something i will face as i am also on 3network

Can't answer my phone!!

OK, I've been having this problem for a good couple of months now. About half the time that someone calls me, when I hit the Talk button on my phone it just mutes the ringer and doesn't answer the phone. Usually I try the 'Slide to answer' deal, and that just slides over to Answer and still doesn't do anything. I know the actual button is fine, it works great, i've tested it over and over again. I've changed HardSPL, ROM's, Radio's, etc. and I still see the same issue. What is wrong?! or is anyone else having something similar at least?
So I guess no one else has this issue, at all, with any ROM, radio, etc.?! I guess there must be something wrong with my phone. That kind of sucks.

I had the same issue with my htc mogul. These suggestions worked, give it a try (i will NOT take credit for these great tips/found them by searching):
dial ##778#/EPST/Modem Settings, change the slot cycle index number to 1
and or if that didn't fix it...
Take a look at your HKLM/Comm/ConnMgr/Planner/Settings/SuspendResume
It is a multi-sz value and should be #777. If it shows anything like ~GPRS or
something containing GPRS, change it back to #777 and soft reset.
Once I changed it back to #777, I can answer the call immediately when data is on, time and time again. Prior to this, there was a significant delay.
Please backup your phone prior to making these changes...
Good luck...

Thanks for the help, I don't know if I believe any of that though. First of all, the # codes are carrier specific, I have AT&T, what's your service? These codes didn't work at all for me. Second of all, I mentioned that I've changed ROM's numerous times, along with Radios, etc. and I still have the same issue. Maybe this worked for you, but for me it doesn't. I've been trying some stuff recently, re-flashing SPL, hardSPL, Stock ROMs, and I'm hoping the problem goes away although I'm not that confident. I keep thinking it must be physical as my phone's "talk" button works perfect. Every time I try it it always responds appropriately, except when trying to answer a call. Beyond that, when it does screw up, it at least mute's the ringer, so I know it's responding somewhere.
I'm not sure what to do about this. Guess I'd better just wait it out for a TP2 and sell this one and forget about it. Could be due to bad blocks, I've had numerous problems in the past that I've been able to pretty much prove were a result of bad blocks in the phone's memory. Oh well, thanks for trying, although none of that works!!
I assume he has Sprint.
I have the same problem answering calls too, and I think it's because of the slidetoanswer dialer. I'm using xECK29x's 6.5 ROM.

Thanks for the input, I think I'm going to try a different dialer for a while and see if that solves the problem. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the issue.
While his codes may be different (I'm also with AT&T), he may be onto something... I have had the same issue, but after reading this post, I have been watching, and the times the phone prevents me from answering are when I have had some sort of data (browser, GPS, etc) open in another window.
My 2 cents FWIW

I have an unlocked euro touch pro and cannot answer a call by touching the onscreen answer button. It will continue to ring tho. I have gotten in the habit of just using the hardware answer key. I've flashed numerous diff roms and all are this way, even the htc updated rom from their site. The only one that worked was the oem rom preloaded on the phone from factory. Not a big issue to me. I just deal with it.
Have this problem with energy's Roms. If you are on his 3.0 still go into Start>Tweaks>Advanced Config. Scroll down to Phone, Click on Phone Skin then Disable it. The setup of the call is different. Be sure to re enter you voicemail for it is erased when you disable the skin. Worked for me. No problems here. BTW you must understand that any Rom you flash will not be perfect!
I also have the same problem. And i to beleve its the new dialer thing. will try and change it, although i realy like the way you can search a contact with it. The other one is just a litte to small i feel. Anyway thanx for a good tip.
I'm also running into the same problem. I'll try disabling the phone skin to see how that works out.
Thanks everyone for your input!! I was a little scared to see no one answer this is at first, but now I can see this is a common problem. The dialer has to be the issue here, I've been running a standard dialer (not the phone canvas) for a couple days now and it's been perfect everytime.

Hey, it worked! I can't thank you enough, as this has been bugging the heck outa me. My slot cycle index was already set to 1, but my SuspendResume setting in the registry was "GPRS_bye_if_device_off". I had gotten to the point that I knew my problem was related to having a data connection going, but I had no idea where to go from there, and had no luck when searching the forums for a solution. Now my phone answers almost immediately, even whan I have a data connection going. Thanks again.

Help - No audio/mic in cell call, but voip works fine

I have an HTC Droid DNA with Verizon. It's almost 2 years old. I set s-off about a year ago, and have root access, but I didn't flash anything. It's worked fine this whole time. Yesterday morning i made a call without issue. Then, in the afternoon, when I tried to make a call, there was no sound during the call. I made no changes and it suffered no damage in between. If I try to make a call. the call connects, the other person gets the call and answers it, but I can't hear them and they can't hear me. Same with incoming calls. My phone rings, I answer, but neither of us can hear the other one. I've tried the speaker phone, headset, and bluetooth with the same results. I've also tried making a call through google hangouts, and the sound works just fine.
Checked mute/volume settings. Restarting multiple times didn't fix it. I finally decided the only solution was to wipe everything and reflash a stock rom. I flashed hboot, radio, and then the ROM. Still no audio in cell calls. I'm at a complete loss. Is it possible this is a hardware problem? A problem with some account setting on Verizon's end? Any thoughts our suggestions would be appreciated.
