I need a bit of help here please!
so i was out last weekend and met a hot girl, got her number but i just did the old put it in my phone and dialed it to save the number in call history thinking i would save it properly later. But then next day i forgot i had done that and reset my call history on my phone loosing the number! gutted.
so is there anyway i can restore my call history or is this just going to be the one that got away?
thanks for any help!
did she actually answer the call? If so you may be able to retrieve it from your on line itemised bill, if your carrier offers it.
nope, i just dialled then hung up so it would save it in my call history, oh well!

Hei,
Sorry, can someone please help me. I have tried hard finding the information I am after but have absolutely not found it. I'm a girl in trouble now.
I need to swap SIMs for my XDA2 ..and has happened before that the device actually resets itself in this process, and as a result, I lose also the call history listing and SMS messages there. How can I make sure that the call history and the SMSes are being backed up to my PC and can then be restored as they were, even if the device has reset itself. You help is really needed, Thank you!!
(see, I need the call history e.g. to bill my employer for all the phone calls made in the last months, and all the SMS messages needs to be available as well. Currently I have calls and SMSes listed on my phone since March last year. The carrier/SIM can only store 20 SMSes)
Thank you!!!
Hope this helps a bit,

chears,
Two or three times now its happened where if someone calls my phone and I miss the call, after they leave a voicemail I get notified of the voicemail, but then my phone starts ringing again instantly and the caller ID shows my own number. If I try to answer that "call" I get silence, then some random number dialing, then it disconnects. Any ideas?
The first time it happened I thought whoever had called just called right back but I missed that call as well. When I looked at my call log, it shows my own number as a missed call. It just happened now as I was sitting at my desk, I didnt answer because I was on my office phone, and just as I got the notification, I got another call from my own number. Seems odd to me...
Anyone else getting this ever?

EDIT: ARHD 3.6.7 and included kernel. Its happened on other versions of ARHD also however.

I could only think this is your phone's way of telling you to check your voicemail. usually, on t-mobile anyway, if you dial your own cell phone number it redirects you to your voicemail. It could be an error with your firmware or network though. Have you made any changes to your phone recently (i.e. ROM change/update)? Think of any possible conditions that may have changed with your phone since this started. Have you contacted your provider? Check your online call history through your carrier site and see if the same number appears at the time of call. If it does, the issue could be someone spoofing you. You can do this with spoofcard/spoofapp. It's hard to actually connect with a phone with the same number you're spoofing though, since it redirects to voicemail. As a precaution, i'd add a pin to my voicemail if I were you- in the event that this is the case. I found this out by spoofing one of my buddies once. In an attempt to boggle his mind, I tried using his number as the number of origin and found out that it directed to his voicemail, giving me access to that information.
It happens if I call my own phone from my house and leave a voicemail. I dont think its anyone spoofing my number. As you said, its almost like the phone gets a notification from a remote computer and a call from it at the same time.
I has done it at least once with every version of ARHD I have ran, but not all the time.

Call up your voicemail and go through the main menu to make sure voicemail paging notifications are turned off.
Ha! I bet that was it! Thanks go to you sir.
It was turned on for urgent messages (which explains why not all did it). When I turned it off and left myself a voice mail test it didn't do it. Weird, I wonder how it got turned on...

Hello --
I have an emergency situation involving a Galaxy S4 and missing data and I am hoping someone here can help me in the next couple of days. The phone all of a sudden deleted all call logs more than a month old. The phone is a year old and there are no settings in the phone to manually change call log storage. There is plenty of memory and space on the phone. The issue is there are several incoming phone calls which are not showing up on the carrier's phone bill, they only showed up on the phone's call history.
From what I have been told the only way to recover missing call logs is if you have "super user" access and have not factory reset the phone. The phone was never rooted and it was not backing up the call logs to the backup app on the phone. The app only maintains event history, so you can see that a phone call was received at a certain time but there is no phone number.
Its very important that the call logs are recovered due to a legal matter. I am also trying to figure out how to stop the call history from auto deleting and figure out why the phone is doing other strange things. Is there someone on these boards who can either physically help me in person or who legitimately knows a way to retrieve the call logs from the OS? I know it is possible according to the manufacturer but I don't have the tools to do it. (And yes I have been to the carrier, Samsung and multiple cell phone repair shops). I almost need a cyber security expert or something to troubleshoot this.
Thanx
I received a call while I was working, I could not answer. I could not answer because I was busy working. I didnt want to answer because I did not know the number. Not being able to answer, the caller left a voicemail. Which turned out to be a blessing in disguise because Im still able to listen to it via voicemail. If I were to have answered I would have thought someone butt dialed me and thought nothing of it and hung up. But after listening to it, I realized that it was my voice and hers.
At first I thought maybe my girlfriends apartment was bugged for whatever reason. The people shes renting from are very reputable. So we went and checked everywhere. Nothing. However, I thought to myself how would they get MY phone number if it is not affiliated in any way to her apartment or where she lives.
So that leads me to think that something may be on my phone. I have since factory reset my phone. The crazy thing about this whole situation is that the conversation that was recorded was from TWO DAYS ago. Who has my number? How are they able to record me? Do I just wait to see if I receive another call? I wont be putting any sensitive information on the device for fear of it being compromised. If I do get another call, Ive already decided Im destroying this one and buying another phone.
I never opened any weird emails. Never downloaded any weird apps. Never opened any links in any received texts. Im on Android 10 on a One Plus 7.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
here's a possibility - you and your girlfriend were talking and then you butt-dialed someone and it went to their voicemail. That person decided to call you and playback the voicemail. Look in your call log for an outgoing call that you don't recognise at the time of your conversation with your gf.

I hadnt thought of that, I checked the records, and there was no butt dial. I called the number that called me and it said it was no longer in service. Looking at the records on my cell providers site and there was no record of that number ever calling me. Which leads me to believe it was spoofed.
I searched a lot to find a forum for this topic I couldn't find one so here it goes.
I live in Canada and I received 5 or more calls from this number (716-895-3300) .. it is a Buffalo, NY number and it is a medical facility fax number or something from what I found out in my search. I received 5 calls within half an hour from this. Every time it would leave a voice message and the voice message is silent except some beeping noises. I didn't answer the call even though I was tempted but I made a big mistake. I accidentally called it... I was trying to call my voice message number but my finger hit this number and it went on until my phone vibrated(meaning probably that call went through) and then I hang up. After calling this number the calls stopped. Again suspicious.
So my question is... can you get hacked if you call a suspicious number like this?
I changed my banking app password but didn't change my multiple email address passwords.... too lazy. So can you get hacked if you call a suspicious number and the call goes through and just when they are about to pick up you hang up?
What makes you think you been hacked?
It may be true that your device was compromised, but not from those calls.
I don't think that your mobile phone will get hacked if you just call a suspicious number.
Probably ok for such a short time frame call...
