Is there a way to tell if you dropped a call? I drop one a week but idk if its my friend with his new headset or what. Is there a way to tell? Before lately I don't think I've had a dropped call in 2 mo since I had my cappy. Last few weeks I've been running ultimate rom v 5 something. Before cognition 2.6 and above. All help is appreciated. And how often do you guys drop calls? And this is inside my house. Lots of windows. Oh and one more thing. I have noticed texts coming a minuet before or during the few drops if I remember right. But I have also texted myself and had some1 text spam me on the phone and nothing happened.
Thx

Unfortunately, I can't help with a method to see what calls have been dropped.
I have been experiencing dropped calls since upgrading to the official ATT 2.2 build. In the last week I've had almost all of my 'long' calls drop on me. Looking at my call log, it appears that anytime I have a call that lasts >20 minutes it gets dropped.
Lots of dropped calls here too after 2.2 (Cognition 4 & 4.1). Rarely had A problem before.

Yes. I am running the stock ATT 2.2 rom. Loaded it the day it came out. Since then, I have had several (8 - 10) dropped calls. Before that, none. I am fairly sure it is my phone because it can occur reguardless of who I am talking to or what time of day. Length of the conversation doesnt seem to matter either.
I am experiencing this as well. Frequent dropped calls recently.
Thanks guys. This helps, my gf just got a captivate, 11XX build with 2.2 pre-installed. So I'm going to root it and either put in a new modem or a new ROM all together because she likes it but doesnt due to "lack of signal" and "dropped calls" so sounds to me like the KB1 modem isnt all that good....
Another question here, JW in keis can you go from 2.2 stock to 2.1 stock? or does it not let you downgrade ? ( I know you can with oden, Just wondering if there is a AT&T supported way of downgrading...?)

What ROM and kernel are you running with that modem??
thanks!
if it's happened after a flash, you may be running an incompatible modem.
Me and my girlfriend, both on our stock froyoed Captivates, constantly have calls dropped by our phones since the upgrade. We have both done a factory reset and rooted after the upgrade. Any help or explanation is appreciated.
Also, her random shutdowns unfortunately continue...

Has anybody been able to get rid of the keyboard lag that sometimes plagues this phone? Especially when texting
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I turned off the popup on keypress. It helps but it still lags. It seems worse when the message I'm typing starts getting longer.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
I thought I was the only one having keyboard lag (among the screen not being always the most responsive). It's ridiculous especially when I factor in the random reboots (most of the time I have to pull the battery for it to respond, and the last reboot cause my phone to COMPLETELY reset...as in I had to set up everything again as if it was the first time I turned the phone on), and how it takes 2/3 seconds for the lock screen to kick in (when I press the power button to wake my phone it shows the screen I was last on before the screen locked) -- which might not be a huge issue for some, but I've never had this issue with any of my other phones, and the low ringer volume which really irritates me.
I have bleeding but it's nothing to noticeable and doesn't bother me right now because I dont really ever notice it.
I should receive a new one tomorrow and I'm hoping none of these issues are there
--- BTW, sorry for kind of going off topic. I apologize, meant no harm.
Yeah you are correct, the longer the message is, the worse it gets
I believe that I read that its a kernel issue
And to the above, what reason did I give them in order for them to trade it out?

I told the rep about the 4 reboots I had since I got the phone...which was 3 days before I called in, and how the last reboot seemingly wiped my phone and had me log in all my information as if it was the first timed I'd ever turned it on.
The rep told me I was his 3rd call that day for this issue but there were no notes on their system about problems with the phone or any updates to correct the issue(s)...needless to say, he sent me out a new one.
I will be getting it today. Hope it doesn't reboot. The bleeding I can deal with in all honesty, but if it reboots and the volume is as low as it is on my phone now I will have to return it for good and get another phone...and I don't want too.
Can you change the title of this thread to reference the gingerbread builds. Just so people don't get confused. This only applies to the leak gb and roms using it.

hey,
I bought the nexus s (9023) about two months ago, stock rom, not rooted, and for the last week or two, it started making problems.
about 1-5 times a day, i can't here the other side at all. as if it's on mute. not even the ringing tone, before I'm answered. the only thing that solves it, is to restart the phone.
in other forums i've read that it's a mess, and that i should use my warranty. the problem is i bought the phone abroad, and shipping it should take about 3 weeks.
is it a common issue?
can i solve it alone, mabye by switching to a non-stock rom?
i'll be very happy to read some good news here, but bad news is better than non.
thanks a lot,
tal
p.s, iv'e downloaded system info to monitor the temp, and it doesn't happen necessarily when the phone is hot.
I don't know... I am rooted, I have used 5 different roms since purchasing my phone.
Stock
CM 7
Savaged Zen
Oxygen
Soju
I have also used several kernels
CM Stock
Netarchy
Matrix
James Bond
Trinity
So far, on all roms and kernels I have experienced the same problem. You make a call and it connects, looking at the screen the time counter is going but there is no sound; it will sit there and hold the call for 30-55 seconds then ends call. A quick redial and bam it works. Some people have reported that they answered and there was nothing. I don't know, it's really obnoxious.
The other, more annoying problem is that randomly on calls throughout the day the phone will just reboot itself. Right in the middle of a call. AHHHH like 3-5 times daily!
help, anyone?
i'm stuck with this, and a bit clueless.
Well, somehow I discovered that the problem is related to the bluetooth. as long as it's turned of, nothing will happen, on the other hand, when I use my earphone (most of my conversations happen while driving) i need to restart my phone every 1-2 calls
any ideas?
just u can't hear other one while calling u?
thanks.
so it was in the beginning, but now neither of us can hear the other. no matter who made the call.
and again, only when BT is working.

am really disappointing with nexus s , but i dont have enough money to buy HTC product again.
any solution?
Hi, did anybody have any solution to this problem?
I live this problem on almost half calls of specific numbers.
I am desparate...
Try setting discoverable timeout to never? Have you tried a different Bluetooth device?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
I have this problem too. This seem to happen on some Kangs and nightly, but not all of them. I can't hear when someone calls me. But when I call someone, I can hear them. I always have Bluetooth off (do not use them).
I live the same problem. No problem for outgoing calls. For incoming calls, I cannot hear caller's voice but they can hear me. It is not for all numbers.
I am on t-mobile and nexus s (cynagenmod nightlies). For all incoming calls from tmobile numbers no problem. But for almost all other carriers, it is just random.
I feel like I started having this problem after updating from CM 7.0.2 to 7.1 RC and thereafter(but not very sure on this).
If anybody still following this topic, I would suggest you to contact samsung if you still have warranty. On the second attempt they sent me a brand new phone with box and accessories.

Or, you might give it a try with a different radio for your model:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884
If you go this road, make sure you backup your EFS folder.
What i would do is if it is still in warranty just give it back to them and they'll probably give you a new phone. Since you said it takes 3 weeks to ship, just wait for it and use another phone if possible. Its not like your life is going to end. I think the problem is, not every phone is the same so there will be problems especielly when flashing a rom. For example unstable roms might not allow you to use this app or have serious effects on your phone.
Best to give it back to samsung and get a replacement.
So to sum it up, I don't personally have a skyrocket, but I have a friend who looks to me for custom roms, root, etc for his skyrocket. I've been doing the ROM flashing thing for like 3 years and I've never had issues. Yet it seems every time I flash something to his phone I'll get a call a month or so down the road saying its unbearably slow or that it takes minutes to make a phone call. Is there some step that I've been missing? How does this always happen? I realize they're different phones, but I've flashed countless roms for multiple periods of time on my Xoom, Gnex, and Eris without any issues. Can anyone shed some light on this? Its been driving me crazy.
Thanks for any help,

Can you expand on what is slow? If it is just apps MOT UISNG internet, then his process memory/cache/whatever is gettiing full. Does he ever reboot the phone? Restarting the phone clears memory and will do wonders.
If he is using any app like Task killer or Task manager then he is screwing things up. With the the SGS II, there is no need to kill processes, since that only worsens things.
If he restarts phone, does it recover its speed? Can u check that?
EDIT: If it is internet - i do not see how that could be related to making a call, but still otherwise - then he is being throttled.
Thanks I'll text him and see what I can find out. As of now I think he's running the modified leaked ICS roms that came out like a day after the leak. We live on opposite sides of the state so I rarely see him.
**Edit: there's no way he's being throttled. He's the most data conscious person I know. Barely used 300mb of his 2gb the last few months.

The very first ROMs of the ICS leak had a lag problem. The newer ones quickly got rid of that.
This is a copy paste of his response asking what was wrong:
"I'm not using a task manager at all. First off, the phone freezes every so often and it shuts down by itself when it freezes. That aside, I've rebooted the phone literally dozens of times because it starts acting funny...like, apps will randomly stop working, the home button won't work, etc. Then adding to that, the phone feature is soooooooooo slow. If I tap on the phone to make a call, it takes about 5 seconds to open. Then any numbers I punch in take about 4 to 5 seconds each to appear. If I want to call somebody out of my call history list, it will take at minimum 5 seconds to open, and then selecting the person to call can take up to 10 seconds to respond. Finally, the home screens lag somewhat when I scroll between them and the lock screen is always on, no matter how many times I turn it off. Lol kind of a lot of problems huh?"
So new ICS ROM seems to be the general consensus? Thanks again guys.

Is his current data very important to him? Looks like a sub-optimal flash. It happened to me before - the exact symptoms. Since he is far off from you, he can do the following:
1. Reboot to CWM recovery.
2. Wipe data/factory reset.
3. Wipe dalvik cache.
Of course his favorite apps will be gone......
The more sure way is to reflash, but this time do the above steps along with Mounts&storage>>Format>>system, data, cache
Then reflash the ROM. Of course again his favorite stuff will vanish,
To avoid this he can do a nandroid backup, or Titanium bakup, but then replacing those apps back MAY re-corrupt his system.
Will check back later.......
EDIT: ALso, in some ROMS if you flash radio, kernel and ROM separately, the order matters.
I can figure out a way to back his apps up if I tell him how to use TiBu right? I'll be skyping him later thus weekend to try and figure it out. If he wipes this way it won't erase EVERYTHING on the internal storage right? As in camera pictures will be saved correct? Ill try to walk him through a CWM flashing, shouldn't be too difficult. Any ROM suggestions you have currently for me, prioritizing stability over most everything? Thanks again.

Screw backing up his apps. There is issues with restoring apps and ICS. He should reinstall the ROM or download a new one. And no, pictures and media won't be touched. And I recommend the latter.. Embryo 2.1 is amazing and silky smooth and I have zero issues with it. Had a few that I quickly fixed

Are you implying there's issues restoring for ICS and the skyrocket? That would be understandable maybe, but I know for a fact there isn't for just ICS in general. Thanks for the ROM btw, I'll look into it. If it means anything, he's using AT&T.

Lol im similar i have a rocket with no issues using smooth ice and really tried most of the other roms but i have a friend who also has one and when i put roms on his phone he's always having issues a few days later.

Glad I'm not the only one in that boat. I swear I have no idea what happens to other peoples phones once I flash stuff on them. Mom and sisters nook color is running fine still. Flashed a ROM on an OG Droid for a different friend a few months back and within two weeks he had me fix it because *I* messed it up (How the hell he managed to delete the launcher and google framework packages is beyond me :what: ). Guess there's a reason root is disabled when you purchase a phone . Although I still don't understand how problems arise weeks if not months later and the fingers are always pointed back to me. /rant sorry.
I'll be checking out the two ROMs suggested here shortly then making a detailed email out to him. Thanks again everyone.

Haha, let them figure out how to modify their own devices. It will only help them to know what they are doing and you will have less problems.
You are most correct. For the most part, unless its a close friend I will refrain from doing anything. I've had too many instances where people don't understand what I'm telling them. For example, the mere installation of juicedefender on a colleagues phone caused "me to be unable to get Facebook messages or words with friends notifications instantly unless I turned the screen on and I had to take it to the store to get repaired" :banghead: WELL YES. What did you think I meant when I told you your data services would be suspended to save battery while the screen was off? TLDR: Family only or I'll make you learn yourself (or sign a waiver )

Yes, I have learned to be very selective in helping people run roms and such. If they don't understand what it means to clear cache, dalvik, fix permissions, etc.. they are gonna have problems. They need to understand the basics of custom roms, rooting, and the like before they can even consider using anything but stock. They simply have no business running a custom rom, and some are buggy, which makes it far worse. Our ICS leak needs some TLC and some knowledge to keep it running and debug when problems arise. This is something a "buddy" with no knowledge is not gonna be able to fix, and he will have problems. Even Gb customs have issues which require basic knowledge to fix. Our "buddies" need to read the forums and equip themselves with some knowledge before doing or running anything other than stock.
I guess I'm just used to having phones with a larger development community (Nexus, Eris, OG Droid, Nook). The one here is stellar, don't get me wrong, but I've had numerous android devices with flash and forget ROMs that I may have incorrectly assumed all phones had these. My apologies to anyone who takes that offensively, it wasn't intended to be. There are tons of great devs here who continue to impress me, but the population of this dev forum compared to the GNex for example, is much smaller.
Tldr again: I incorrectly assumed most phones had flash and forget ROMs. Is there anything close to stock I can just flash and root for said buddy? Ideally a stock rooted ROM would be best I think.

Well, I consider it stable with both seanz's ucld2 sky ics and nexusmods beta 7, but there are a couple bugs. If your buddy just needs a rom that runs and doesn't need fixing every now and again he should probably stay on Gb.
Sounds like a good plan.. is there anything in particular I need to do to go from the leak down to GB?

Ever since day one (start of August or so) I've been having a few problems with this phone. At first, I thought it was just the network or maybe the recipient's network. Then I realize it may very well be the Blaze itself.
The problem I'm facing is this...
Almost every time I try to make a phone call I can't hear anything. No dialing sound audio. No person on the other line... just nothing. The phone does go through, but I can't hear anything. I don't use any BlueTooth device. I have to wait several minutes or reboot my phone several times in order for the calls the work properly. This issues has been going on from GB (stock, no root) to ICS (stock, no root) until now that I'm flashing the phone to see if I can fix it (currently using PA's latest version as ROM). I thought the updated radio from ICS would fix it but to no avail. Goes to say, this issue happens to my father, too (same phone, got them for free when we started the contract).
This has caused an annoyance for both me and for friends.
Anybody else experiencing this? Any ideas as to why this happens?
IDK if this helps but I'm from Puerto Rico.

Tell you what, I have been having the same problem. Make sure you call tmobile and complain! They are telling me that this is not a known issue and there are no complaints on it. I had a detailed complaint filed. I sent my phone back, got another one and it is worse than the first with this issue! Another strange thing is that it will suddenly make doubles of my custom ringtones and one of the files doesn't work. It defaults to generic ringtone. Very glitchy. Sometimes, will still show that the custom notification tone is selected but will play default tone. I am sending this one back too. I am really bummed to hear that rooting did not fix the issue on the phone calls. I was actually considering doing this next...... Really hope the next phone doesn't have this issue. I like the Blaze and don't know of another tmobile phone that is comparable to replace it with.
ditto
I have the same problem I believe. I currently dorm near the Bay Area, California. I haven't been able to hear or reply through my calls even though they connect to the other person's phone. This isn't exactly a signal problem because the phone still has bars and I can still tell when someone is trying to call me. I still receive texts, use wifi, and sound is working perfectly fine. I am glad I am not the only one with these problems.
edit: This whole "unable to hear or speak" into the mobile phone problem began around November 22nd (thanksgiving overload?).
I am using CyanogenMod 9, rooted of course.
edit2: So I just tinkered around with the sim card and battery by taking it out and waiting for a minute or two before putting it back in. Voila! I can now hear my voice mail.
Sounds like Handset issues with me... send them back and have them send you new ones... that's some BS if it is doing that Stock.
Just my opinion... being through a lot of phone and that is what it sounds like. just one mans opinion... cheers

I would be better off getting a new, better phone, it seems. It is quite annoying. Either way I voided my warranty by flashing. I don't suppose I can actually return it back to stock (like, literally returning to stock and unrooting and wiping and formatting every data) so I can still give it back... can I?

Just my opinion... being through a lot of phone and that is what it sounds like. just one mans opinion... cheers

I got my third phone from tmobile the other day (all Blaze) and my very first phone call it happened on. To add to what someone else said. The phone shows plenty of signal strength and in fact, if I hang up and call right back the call goes through as it should. This from sitting in the exact same spot. I can't figure out what's going on? I had thought on this and realized that I had been turning off apps on the phone that I don't use (pre loaded junk). On the off chance that had something to do with it I turned them all back on. Still does it. I'd say it is a good 30-35% of my calls that this happens on. Very frustrating. I really like this phone but it won't function as a phone for me. I guess now they have to give me a different phone if I return this one too but I don't know what phone is comparable in size and function. I picked this phone specifically for the size. My wife got an s3 and I was not interested in it at all due to how big it is. This sucks.
I have to chime in. i just bought the blaze for my g/f, and i've using an sgh-t989 (galaxy s2), having the same issue you are describing. stock radio, stock ROM, just rooted.
Such a shame considering it is such a great phone for the price it is offered at. Safe to assume it is a hardware problem?

Are you saying that you are having this problem with the blaze or the s2? Both?
Both phone are having this behavior. new SIM used in both phones aswell.
Yeah, I went down and switched out my sim card as well. My wife has an s3 and has no problems so I don't know what's up? Shows signal but calls won't connect properly. Hang up and call back, it works. Huge pain when I am driving or short on time though.
Any fix this problem found? I talked to samsung and t-mobile today, samsung was no help at all and t-mobile asked me to master reset it. Once that didn't work they offered a warranty exchange. Any one have luck correcting the issue?
So far? No. But my phone seems to be behaving for the past few days (3). Which is weird. I'm probably jinxing it right now.

Restart during a call, the handset will not send sound.
Maybe they got a bad batch of Blaze 4G's. NOT making an excuse for them but I know it's happened in this business and others.... If I were u I wouldn't keep on dealing, hats to your patience. Let know where you're at. I've flashed to CM 10 nightly 20121207 and my Blaze is just damn sexy lmao, "figure of speech" good luck brought cheers

Whas ROM are you using? ICS and gingerbread have a call preference switch in settings. Set it to data preferred. Cm 10 has a lte switch in settings use it. Battery apps can cause delay in data connect. Try these and let me know how it works.
