I've been having an issue where my incoming calls are sent directly to my voicemail. It happens about 70% of the time, and its incredibly frustrating. I went into a Sprint store and they performed a firmware update, and it seemed to fix the problem for a couple weeks, but its back again. I've tried searching but havent been able to find anything.
A Sprint employee told me that Android phones require a couple seconds to "completely" hang up. Not sure that the issue though. My area is 1x, phone is in Hybrid Mode and the feature to automatically send to voicemail is disabled.
Any ideas? Anyone else having this problem?
I am having the exact same issue; and I've noticed it has gotten worse over the last week. I'm not in a 3g area, and I notice it happens more frequently if I've been surfing the web or using data.
do you guys/gals experience this in one particular area? meaning it o only happens at home? seems like your phones might not be getting service and the calls get sent straight to voicemail.
Since CDMA cannot handle voice and data at the same time you may notice calls going straight to voice mail if you've been browsing or using data. The call may never come through if you happen to be using data at the exact time a voice call is coming through...
check settings/call settings and make sure DDTM mode is not checked

mine seems to be more or less random. I usually have solid signal; and I've had people tell me they called four or five times and the first ones went right to voicemail and then one randomly gets through. In these cases I KNOW I haven't moved my phone...

This is true, however, the device is smart enough to know when to cut the data connection if a call is coming in.
I got a replacement device yesterday, seems to be working fine now.

This is exactly what I was experiencing, also in solid 1x coverage. I would recommend going to a Sprint store and asking for a replacement. They replaced mine with no questions asked when the Rep tried to place a call to my phone unsuccessfully in the store.

I did an ODIN flashed Gummy_GBE1.9RC1 Rom and then did a CWR flash of the MinimalGummyGBv2.0 theme over. When I went to My Verizon to switch over from my Incredible 2 to my Charge but only the SIM card registered. So now I can access 4G and get online but I can't make phone calls or send SMS/MMS over 1X or 3G.
I called Verizon they said play the waiting game. I've waited for 24 hours, activated my Incredibe again (successfully) then tried the Charge again, multiple times, (different SIMs) with no prevail, still only recieving 4G.
I just flashed the EP1W modem, and got the same results as before...
VZW then suggested a wipe... Took so long to get it the way I wanted it. lol
Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen or heard about it before?

I don't quite understand what's going on here with the My Verizon and and Incredible 2?? you had a Charge that you flashed all that to and then tried to switch phones?
When I was first starting with flashing I accidently checked "EFS CLEAR" once. That was real interesting, it caused me to lose all data services like net connection, but still let me make phone calls. I find it very interesting that your problem seems to be the complete opposite. I figured that one out after a while, but if your problem is with phone calls and texts with data working I don't think my solution would help you.
IMO you should just suck it up and odin back to stock, including the charge.pit file, and see if the problem remains.

if nothing's working you may want to follow kamikazemikes option below and get to EE4 stock and have VZ give you a new 4G sim card or a replacement phone... it happens a lot so you shouldn't have a problem doing that

When I first got my charge I wasn't able to send messages. I restarted mt phone and it fixed the problem. Idk if that will help or not bit it's with a shot if you haven't yet.

Well, turns out it just needed a *22899 :-( of course I figured this out after wiping and reinstalling the ROM. Getting and making phone calls but I can't text over 1X... lol Always something.

has anyone had this issue where it says "Mobile Network Not Available". I was running CleanRom 4.5 and installed the 4.5 keyboard and clock and all of a sudden I lost my network connection. what is weird is the 4G works fine. I just can't receive or make calls/text messages. Does anyone have any idea what may be the problem? I've returned my phone to stock, cause I'm thinking I'm going to have to take it back to Verizon. Just wondering if maybe anyone knew a fix for this.
That's weird. I'm running 4.5, and I have not seen that. Is data back now?

Yeah, i dont know what caused it to happen. I didn't even really notice it wasn't working, cause I never lost data. i've always had 4G signal. i just can't make phone calls or send texts. at one point it did say mobile network not available, but now it just doesn't make calls at all. the screen looks like its making the call, but you do not hear any dial tone or anything. For sure it was working yesterday because i was on a four hour call last night. Just stopped out of nowhere today.
I had the same issue the other day. Did you backup your IMEI/MEID info? Check and see if they are still there in about phone, also check your ERI and if your network is listed.

I just got back from the Verizon store after spending 2 hours there. It did seem like it was an IMEI issue. They mentioned my phone having a different number than what was on the phone itself and they could find no way to correct it. The verizon tech support that they called were insisting that it was a network issue and not a phone issue, so they opened a trouble ticket to try and resolve that. they said 24-72 hours to get it resolved. luckily, the store clerks and managers thought support was full of it, so they decided to overnight me a replacement phone anyways just in case, even though they were told not to. so hopefully the new phone fixes the issue. I'm just glad that they helped me out because I didn't buy warranty or anything on the phone so they probably could have flat out denied me. Fingers crossed that all is good in a couple of days
I did back up my IMEI the first time I rooted the phone, but since they're helping me out, I'm just going to wait for the new phone and hope that that fixes it.
I had the exact same issue I just call this number
*2767*3855#
If that doesn't work flash back to stock lock the phone do the number again

Take out your battery and look for the IMEI number that is listed underneath it. Write it down. Then boot your phone back up and go to settings, about phone, status, and make sure that the number your wrote down matches the IMEI number on the phone. If it doesn't, then you'll need to restore your IMEI and probably repair your ERI.
Read this thread. It explains how to repair them both:

I had this exact same problem yesterday. I noticed it occurred when I left a 4G area. I couldn't connect to the network anymore and it prompted me to switch to global mode. My IMEI number on the back of my phone matched the number in the status too.
The way I fixed it was by doing an nvrestore in terminal emulator. You need to have a backup in place in order to do this. I believe you can find more about it in the IMEI thread in android development. It should be the first step and they'll probably be able to help you more there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852255
Also, I'm running Clean Rom 4.5, stock kernel, and the vrlg7 radio.

Thanks - will try this out and let you know if any success.
Hey, my girlfriend got a LG optimus Hub phone, like 3 months ago. It was all working fine until like a week before. Once in a while there comes this problem that she can't receive any sms, but she can still send me an sms. When she takes out the sim card and puts it into another phone, all the sms i've sent she receives then. And then when puts the sim back in her phone, she can receive the sms. And then it works fine for like a day, and then the problem starts all over.. What could it be? How to fix it?
Oh, and btw, it's the stock ROM and the phone has only been rooted, nothing else.
Anyone? :S
Has noone really had this problem before? :/

You might just want to try and update your towers.
What carrier are you on?

She's on Tele 2, that's the most popular carrier in Latvia.
Btw, what's towers update? 0.o
In the states you are able to type in a code (usually the same number used for activation) and it will just reconfigure to the cell towers in your area.

Oh no, that's not the case here. We don't really need an activation code here, too. So that's something different.. :/ It happened today, like 2 hours ago, again. We had to put the sim card in another phone and after like 20 mins, we got all the SMS. Then when put the sim back in the LG, it works again. But this happens like everyday. :/ The incoming messages just get stuck, but she can still send them. :/
On some sms/mms stock apps there are settings that if checked can block all outgoing and or incoming sms and mms messages. Check the settings of the app itself and if all else fails there are some really good free 3rd party messaging apps available as a replacement.

Have you applied any updates recently? A buddy of mine installed a carrier update and it made his phone go all wonky. I would suggest backing up her data and doing a factory reset. Factory resets usually always fix software issues like what you're experiencing... Also if you do a backup, start from scratch don't restore any data from the backup as you don't know what is triggering the issue....
It's not the messaging apps fault, that's for sure. Checked that one like tons of times, and tried out other apps, the problem always shows up.
Well I guess that I'll just have to do a factory reset. :/ But could it maybe fix it, by installing another ROM? Like Optimus HUB has an official support for CM7.
signal?
have you tried toggling airplane mode to refresh the network

Oh no, actually I haven't. I'll try it next time the problem occurs and see if it fixes it!
Anyone got some new ideas what could cause this? :/
The airplane mode toggling doesn't help. :/
I've heard somewhere about something that SIM cards can get old and then this thing happens when they sometimes get stuck and you can't receive sms.
So yeah, my girlfriends SIM is like 5 years old, could that really be the problem?
So, i told my GF to go and ask for a new SIMcard, and that fixed the problem. Basically it was just too old SIM. Im just saying if anyone gets the same problem.
Just like the title says. My text messages will get stuck. They won't come through for several hours, I'll send one, or make a call, and suddenly I'll get 5 or 6 messages at the same time. It's the same story with voicemails. I'll miss a call, and not get the voicemail for several hours. I have a feeling it's a network issue, but is anyone else having this issue with the Skyrocket?
sounds like its a carrier problem....i have similar problems here in Jamaica.... i wont get voicemails for days sometimes even months i guess ur carrier is backed up with traffic cause thats what happened when a carrier merged with mine
Where are you located and what carrier do you have?

I'm in Southern Washington state on AT&T.
Weird. I'm around Springfield mo with no problems at all.

Yeah, I've been having this issue for about 3 months now. I've replaced my SIM twice, the phone itself twice, had the software completely wiped and reinstalled, had someone change my APN settings, just about everything I could think of to do.
It may be time to switch to a different carrier...

I'd love to, but unfortunately, I'm on a family plan and can't afford to split off on my own.
Well no because it is not the carrier I am in Washington with the same problem on AT&T. But my roommate which I am on his plan never has the problem ever. It was major at first its calmed down but still I don't receive my phone calls, texts sometimes and just randomly I will get a lot of texts. I almost always have full bars. I have also replaced sim card several times and phones.
You just described my problem exactly. Except mine keeps getting worse. There are 3 other people on my same plan in the house, and none of them have had the issue that I have. It's really damn frustrating.
