hi all!
ever since i got my vox ive been experiencing problems like this.
it only happens sometime and its difficult to reproduce. but problem is as follow..
people send me sms's (sometimes quite alot) and on their phone it just say pending. then if they phone me or just give me a miss call i recieve all the smses at once. but sometimes even when they try to phone me it goes to voice mail. my phone always have full signal during all of this. most of the time im experiencing this problem is when im using my phone as a gprs modem for my pc. i need to know if i should take the phone back or what? but how can i proof ive got this problem? i even updated phone to latest radio and still got problem. any help or suggestions pse!
I am not sure but I think the sms thing happens with my device also, but I have no idea how that could be possible.
?
What Radio versions do you have? If older upgrade to 4.1.13.54_03.10.90
I was on version 4.1.13.54_03.10.90 for some time
but i found the earlier version to be more stable.
just a personal experience.
but i guess i'll give 4.1.13.54_03.10.90 a second shot.

thanx i found ur link on another thread some time ago and i upgraded my radio. but its been 2weeks now and no improvement. my previous radio was something like x.x.34_xx.xx.xx or so. but yes, i do however think that i get better signal. cos on old radio when phone was on my desk it was 90% signal acording to the signal icon on home screen. now its 100. another thing about vox is when u type with qwerty ur hand blocks the antenna weakning the signal. kinda stupid as in most phone manuals they say u shouldnt put ur hand over the antenna area while in call or sms. haha!
but pse any ideas r welcome! im gonna use my sim in another phone for a bit to see if problem is with my sim or phone
Damn.
I have the same problem, most boring one.
Time after time, the phone stops receiving phone calls (line busy if you are calling me, I cant call because the green button doesn't do anything if i press it after I type the number or choose the contact) and some other times SMS messages. I keep the Vox close to my speakers and they make the sound like when you are receiving call/sms (can't describe it, but i think you get me) but nothing happens. And after 2 hours people call me and complain why I didn't reply to their SMS...
If someone finds what is the problem and solution to it I will be thankfull to him/her untill my Vox is alive.
Many options with new ROMs are great thing. But if the SP doesn't do it primary duty (make & receive calls and SMS messages) it's worthless.
I have it tested with 3 ROMs and the problem apeared with every one and each of them.
The default one, don't know the version. The radio was earlier version than 4.1.13.54_03.10.90.
Then I tryed 6.1 v1.0a of Dr. Gonzo.
And now I have for 3 days the 6.1 v1.1. At least once I noticed that problem with this, latest, version.

i dont think u got exactly the same problem. cos whenever im not receiving sms or calls for a while then when i make a call or send a sms all my msgs deliver to me at one time. so what im trying to say is that i am indeed able 2 make calls all the time. i think ur problem mite b caused by a 3rd party app on ur phone? btw i had my problem with original rom, guava rom, 6.1a and im downloading 6.1 v1.1 now. but i can tell u its gonna b the same. its not a rom based issue.
Hello
I've this probleme too,
Exemple : I power on the phone at 9h00, that all, and at 11h00 i would like to call a friend, phonebook-->frient-->call mobile and i press the green button it doesn't do anything. Impossible to call someone
I press the voicemail button : no result.
I must reboot.
Exemple 2 : I do anything my friend call me, my phone is power on, good reception, -->He have voicemail !!
I must reboot..

what radio version and rom are u using? any 3rd party apps that mite interfere with ur call button etc?
PLEASE people lets all give our radio version and rom versions etc so we can pinpoint this problem. it seems that quite a few people are actually experiencing this problem and they dont even realise it.
it does seem that the vox gets in a type of a bottleneck with sms and calls. all ur smses gets jammed and then as soon as i send a sms it blasts open the jam and lets my sms's thru. no point in talking to service provider customer care as they are all idiots

My radio version is : 4.1.13.54_03.10.90
My rom version is Wm6.1 v1.1 : 5.2.19195 (build 19202.1.0.0)
I have just R66mobile7, but i don't think it interfere with my call button
Same problem for me even with the last version of the radio...
I had the same problem with the original rom after installing native voip but no problem with hard reboot without installing native voip on the original rom.
On this morning, I made a hard reboot and didn't install my voip settings only to see...
I will let u know if there are some changes...
I have some problem. Hard reset one day ago .. and till now everything work well.
Did you install your voip settings when you encoutered the problems ?
no route 66 wont interfere. i was thinking more along the lines of smart toolkit etc. it does seem like u got same problem. im read on another thread that the arabic version radio mite be better. so go check on the vox wiki and test the arabic radio. its the second newest version. im gonna try it 2. wil let u know
i never used voip before. but i do however notice if i use my phone as a gprs modem for an hour or so, then i usually send a sms to my gd and all her smses deliver at the same time. now, seeing as voip uses the gprs connection 2. it does seem that the problem is related to gprs being used. my guess is that it has to do with the fact that when u are using ur gprs and someone phones or sms u thru gsm connection ur gprs is supposed to cut out, a gsm connection gets esstablished, and when the connection terminates, ur gprs connection re connects again. now we need to find out if this happens with other devices using voip. and please test it with ur devices also. (while connected with gprs and using voip see if sms deliver to u)

i will test with the arabic radio, and my voip setting.
result tomorrow.
i just u.dated to 6.1 v1.1 and installed the arabic radio. everything seems to b working fine. ill let u know as soon as i experience my first problem
nope! no luck. i just disconnected from my internet sharing app. i send a sms, and 3 smses delivered to me that should have came thru 30mins ago! damn. gonna try another radio now. if this doesnt work i tried all the radio versions on the wiki. and i honestly dont know how to fix the problem.
anyone know what the difference is between chap and pap authentication in gprs settings? and in csd line type settings.. should it b transparent or not transparent. any one can tell me the difference and if this could probably make a difference?
lastly, can i ask if anyone that is certain they not experiencing this problem can maybe tell me what their csd line settings are?
after hard reset i installed myvoipsetting too ... still work perfect.
i think prob is solved with simply hard reset
ok im happy for u! i did hard reset but still had problem. pse let me know once u experience this problem again. in the meantime i changed my csd line type to transparent. no problems so far... i guess i was thinking that transparent wouldnt block as much sms and calls as non transparent! hehe! will let u know. pse will u check ur csd line settings 2? its under start/settings/csd line type/connection element
Hello, i need some serious help over here
What's the problem:
I own a galaxy 3 since June, a week ago i started noticing the internal mic wasn't working on some incoming calls.
Details:
First of all the problem began for no apparent reason (the phone works fine otherwise and no major updates / new apps were installed)
This started happening on the official froyo ROM which was an excuse for me to flash the Kyrillos 9.4 ROM (wiped all data / formatted sd card in the process). The problem still occurs on Kyrillos 9.4 ROM suggesting that this is not a ROM issue
I thought it was a hardware issue but the caller can hear me perfectly if i connect the headset or use the speaker Also the internal mic works fine on some incoming calls and ALL outgoing ones!
Upon further investigation i came upon 2 threads on other forums (unfortunately i can't post the urls as i am a new user, if needed pm me or search google for "Microphone not working on incoming calls") which point out that the same problem incurs on HTCs and XPERIAs. Also it happens on replacement phones (original unit shipped back after this problem), on different providers, on official and custom ROMs, on clean phones (only the stock apps installed).
This seems to happen when the phone is idle for a set period of time (unconfirmed). Fast Reboot app / manual reboot / removing battery don't fix this, however making an outgoing call seems to enable the internal mic temporarily (even if the outgoing call never connects)
When this happens apart from the mic not working on incoming calls it becomes also unresponsive for other apps (Tape-a-Talk, Skype, Soundhound etc.)
Conclusion:
It seems to me that there is bug in froyo that keeps the incoming call code from activating the microphone or perhaps there is a conflict of sorts that keeps the microphone blocked. It is highly unprobable i think that the microphone would randomly start to fail on different android phones in the exact same way, so this shouldn't be a hardware issue.
Question:
Does anyone know/guess or can produce a possible solution for this? If not, could you please suggest further testing steps to help reproduce 100% this problem in an attempt to solve it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is a pain in the neck for me (and others i guess?!)
PS: Excuse the thread form, i 'm really bored of writing / reading long posts
PS 2: This is my first post, hello xda community!

I have the same problem. I flashed the phone from android 2.1 TO cyanogen 2.3 and from it TO ice cream. I had this problem even to cyanogen and only in incoming call,never in other situation.
Googling I found same information but no solution. Anyone here knows something?
Anyway I found a stupid solution....try switching to 2g( I know that it's not a solution but...). It works for me!
that's ridiculous! how can network state have anything to do with the microphone of the device? can this be related to service providers maybe a more techish member could tell us.
anyway i am on 2g already as i don't have a usim card and this happens even if data network mode is deactivated. glad you found a way out but is it really a solution? i mean you have to ditch 3g for the phone to be actually a phone...
Since we seem to be the only ones among so many to be having this problem i am seriously thinking of taking back the phone for a replacement and hope for the best...
just an update, i lost functionallity of the microphone completely earlier today. That is with outgoing / incoming calls and any app i can think of, so i thought i 'd try changing the network data setting to 3g only since i was already on 2g...
WOW!!! that had an instant effect,it works seamlessly now,didn't even have to reboot.fingers crossed it will last.
that is one nasty and very strange bug. Please any of the developers could you take a closer look at this?
much appreciated

Hi folks
I have a Nexus S (i9020a). It has stock 4.1.2 Jelly bean from Google (downloaded the stock image and flashed it). It worked fine for over a month.
Suddenly few days back this device got a problem. When I dial any number I can't hear any dialing sounds and even after the call has connected I can't hear the opposite person and the opposite person also can't hear me (The phone still shows as 'Dialing' though it's already connected). The same is true when I answer any call. Both parties can't hear anything.
This is solved by rebooting the phone for the first phone call only. After I reboot, the 1st phone call works fine, then this problem persists for any calls I make/receive until I reboot the phone again.
I tried flashing a different radio but this problem is still there. I tried my sim card on a different phone and it works fine, so the problem is not that too. My 3G data works just fine.
I need this phone for the next few days/weeks (hopefully not months) before my Nexus 4 gets delivered :laugh:
Thanks..
Edit: Modified the title; Probably gave the wrong meaning that the problem is solved.
<bump> Modified the title. Earlier title gave an impression that the problem is solved whereas I still have a problem.
Have you installed any apps which could somehow affect the dialler?
Unless someone else can give you a different advice, I can't think of any other option than do a full wipe and reflash.
I haven't installed any such apps.
Also, I already did a full wipe and flashed the stock image again. The problem is still there.
Don't know what else you could try, sorry mate - hope someone else can help you sort it out!
Thanks for trying. I think I will go to some hardware shop and see if they can figure out..
Try using a headset for making phone calls so that we can identify if it's really the hardware's problem.

I had similar problem when RAM running out. Usually a reboot fix the problem for a bit.
What I did:
1. With Titanium Backup Pro, froze unused RAM hogging system apps, like Google+, Google play magazine,etc
2. Froze or uninstall Facebook, Word with Friends, etc which are resident and hog RAMs .
3. Install marmite kernel, free up more usable RAMs.
Hope it helps you too.

Thanks for the suggestion!
I tried this too but doesn't work...
Try any custom ROM instead of stock ROM and a different kernel too. There could be chances that you've flashed the wrong ROM / radio too.

Problem solved.
I went to a hardware store today. The guy said that it's a problem with the 3G service of my carrier (Vodafone India). The moment I enabled the '2G only' option in the Mobile networks settings area, this problem was gone. The technician said that this issue is affecting some people randomly. He said that since 3G service was launched just last year, the networks are not yet capable of handling all kinds of devices (he claims that the bug is so erratic that another Nexus S i9020a may work just fine with the very same bootloader/radio/rom which doesn't make any sense). When I said that 3G service was working fine before, he said that most probably my carrier changed some settings on their side which is causing this issue for me.
I have tried this for 6-8 hours now, making a lot of phone calls and it seems that the issue is gone. It saddens me that I am off 3G for now but at least my phone calls and basic EDGE internet works fine. I will have to work with Vodafone to solve this or simply wait for my new phone (Nexus 4) and hope it won't have the same problem..
Hi all,
I'm in desperate need of help. Everything in my HTC pico is working fine except for call receiving and dialing. If I call someone with the speaker ON then they can hear me clearly & I can hear them too. But when I call someone with speaker OFF, it initially shows that its dialing but after few seconds it returns to contact list. If somebody tries to call me they get my line busy or sometimes gets connected but the caller is unable to hear me clearly. I've tried custom roms as well but issue remains. As of now I'm using Europe Stock ROM and my phone is rooted with bootloader unlocked. My phone is S-On, would that be the cause or something?? Is my phone locked for a particular network and if it is then how can I sort this out. Any advise and suggestions are welcome, many thanks.
Regards,
Tariq Alam.
Dude it seems to be a hardware issue. And its nothing to do with S-on.
Seeing to that u have tried installing different rims without sucess,u should probably head for the service centre.
Sent from my HTC Explorer using xda premium
Try flashing other roms iff problems persist go to service center it may be a hardware problem so they repair it!
Thanks very much for your suggestions. It's working now apparently, I'm using Europe stock rom. I'll install the custom rom and then see how it behaves. Thanks once again.
I was using stock rom and the problem seem to be solved but once i installed the custom rom CM10 for htc pico then it got worse. I reverted back to stock rom and again the problem. Having said that, none of my headphones work when i insert it into the headphone jack. I think that's the root which is causing problems.
I'll try a bluetooth device and see what are the results. Any suggestions for a bluetooth device that will not only used for calls but also for music etc.
Many thanks.

I purchased my OPO two months ago and it was fine even in the call section. I love this phone but recently i have been facing a problem. When i place a call or recieve one then the person om the reciever's end is not able to hear my voice clearly. It's too low and sometimes my voice is also distorted. I have tried flashing various radio zip and also updated my phone to 05q, i came back to 44s and still i am having the same problem. I Googled it and i saw that some of the users are also having the same problem. When i reset my phone this problem gets solved but as soon as i download some apps.. I again start facing the same problem. It is quite frustrating.. Other than this.. This phone is too good. Please guys can u help me. Is there a way i can get rid of this?

hmm no replies. anyways i fixed this .. it seems it is really a big issue for oneplus one, they call it "robotic voice" and the fix is really simple. disable the "ok google" feature and delete your voice recording on it as well.
