[Q] Optimus P500 call issue - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem with the Optimus One. When i call icant hear nothing, or conversation suddenly stops and I cant call back. I had stock rom, custom rom, I did reset, do not know what to try, something like has happened to anyone? sorry for my english.

This sounds like a network problem. You can try these troubleshooting steps:
1) Fully power down the phone- remove the battery and sim and let sit for a few minutes. Restart.
2) You could try calling with a different sim card.
3) Ensure you have proper reception - Even if I have full bars, I have similar problems if I am indoors. Going outside usually fixes it.
Hope this helps!

[Q] Random call dropping?

Hi guys,
Right, so I've noticed that when making calls with the Sensation, if they are reaching the 10 minute mark, for absolutely no reason whatsoever the line will just go silent, before the call is dropped. The signal bar doesn't even change.
Has anyone else had this issue?
Cheers,
James
My phone also has dropped calls randomly but on random times I'm sure. Today it did it as well. I don't know why though. I hope to God its not a fault in the phone that can't be fixed with an update. I'd hate switching to s-on and stock recovery.

random call dropping
Hi,
A complete n00b when it comes to Android and first post on this forum. Kindly excuse any inadvertant mistakes.
Thanks to the wonderful forum we have here, I managed to root and get the IC 2.5.3 ROM on my Sensation. And its working like a dream except for one small problem. Big problem really.
Calls keeps dropping, and there have been occassions where I was getting disconnected every 10 seconds. Patterns I noticed :-
1. Voice suddently drops. The call is still on and in about 3-5 seconds call gets disconnected.
2. This happens only in a wi-fi zone (mostly at home). When I am in a wi-fi off zone, this has never happened.
3. This was happening even BEFORE I flashed the custom ROM, (was hoping that the problem would be resolved), but no luck)
4. I suspect its because of an incompatible radio image in my country (India), but what do I know. Could a 4G enabled handset encounter such problems on a 3G network?
5. How can I get to know the best/most compatible radio image for my ROM . ( I searched, but nothing conclusive so far anywhere. I am not able to post in the developer thread because I am newbie )
Please help.

[Q] Sensation crashing constantly

I have a HTC sensation (non branded european version) for about 5 months now, and lately its been crashing constantly, it just goes black and is completely turned off.
Most of the time this happens when its in my pocket.
I'm running the original rom, its not rooted, and i did a factory reset last week.
The problem was gone for a couple of days, but its back again.
I assume its an app that's causing it to crash, but i can't figure out what app.
I'm not sure because it seems that everytime it crashes and i restart it, a program that uses the internet has an update. For example whatsapp, twitter, wordfeud etc.
I tried disabeling wifi, that didn't help. I disabled the mobile network now to see if its internet related, but its not an option to keep that disabled ofcourse.
I removed a couple of apps, but that didn't solve the problem.
Hope someone can help.
If a phone reboots...its typically software related
If it shuts all the way off...its usually battery related.
Call HTC about them sending a replacement battery. Tell them Tmobile told you to call them and you need it for troubleshooting testing.

I can't help, however can report that I have similar issues.
Though I get crashes as well during normal operation such as:
- getting a phone call
- opening up Google Maps (or any GPS app)
- receiving SMS messages
- starting the camera
And all with stock software.
I have a same problem. I cant figure it out. When i turn on my phone battery is around %6 . but normally its around %70. When i restart again it turns normal %70. is it same on your device ?
thnx for the replies! I indeed have weird and incorrect readouts from the battery after restarting, and it doesn´t crash when on the charger.
I realy hope its the battery, i´l call HTC right away to see if they can send me a replacement battery.

Hey... I am facing exactly the same issue. Replacing the battery fixed it or not?
Same here. I also noticed that if I changed my wallpaper, it reverts back to the default phase beam wallpaper on the next boot.
Updating to this firmware
DOWNLOAD 3.32.531.14 710RD (TMO ONLY [THX GROGG88]): http://goo.gl/JCWEO
MD5: 79EDF95337826DF73083E227DB8DE7C3 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767 seemed to fix it for me.
It probably shouldn't have, because the firmware is supposed to be the same as previous except for the radio.
Maybe it'll work for you guys.
Had the same problem, it shutsdown when receiving phone calls.... Like the previous post said it must be battery problem.. i did this fix and my phone has not shut down randomly.. this fix will tighten the battery contact with the terminals...try it first, Its a simple fix

Had this same problem on stock sensation . Once I rooted and installed custom rom the problem went Away! Never to return.
I truly believe and its been proven that custom Roms are MORE stable than stock. After installation of the custom rom , the issue of restarting NEVER RETURNED! Not a problem anymore . It's a software issue. It can be fixed with different software . It's a known issue.

I rooted since warrenty is over, I had the problem on stock rom, hungarian t mobile one, and now the problem starts to come back on a custom rom also, but not form the first day, it must be something related to software... i have two batteries and it did not fix the issue, i dont think the battery is the problem, one is original the other (i mostly use) is an anker battery... quite cool since longer standby...
how can i debug and read logs or dumps about the error?
scenarios when my phone shuts off:
- receiving a call after ringing once or twice (not always)
- during talking on the phone
- when i call someone after ringing once or twice (not always)
- starting camera and using it to make a picture in the moment of flash
- sometimes just when its in my pocket, later i pick it out and wonder its again turned off: D´OH!
most stable workaround which lasts usually half a day (remove battery)
have you any ideas how I can read dumps or logs?
thanks

Data speed icon?? Gone?? Invalid Sim sometimes??

Okay I have been having the t-mobile "invalid sim card" issue and the phone currently is running with the t-mobile carrier logo. I was able to make calls, and connect via WiFi. I am not able to access the web2go page when I select data in the "wireless & network settings" page with a check. I used to be able to at least access this page with wifi turned off and it would show a little 4g icon on the top? I will post some screenshots. I downloaded GeRIL just to see what it said? I think my phone is rooted? I ran superuser and said the phone was not but the last action I did before getting the t-mobile to show up was a zip restore with CWM so I assume it's rooted? Might be just a flash? One other thing is that I have the WiFi and GPS on and it does not appear to get my location for weather in the weather app?? I can open Google maps and GPS is within 60 meters of my location. I want to reboot the phone but am afraid it won't be back to normal and I will get the error "Invalid Sim Card" again? Is there anything or tests to run while the phone is on the t-mobile network I should check first before rebooting? Or files I should try to use or flash? Or any service menu codes to run diagnostics? Thanks in advance. I forgot to mention that I will be getting a replacement from t-mobile in a week, I did the online chat and they said they will send a replacement under warranty. The box has a date of 7/29/2011 so the phone is about 3-4 months old? The phone is unlocked and has been rooted before, but the issue happened days before I modded this G2x. Basically, today it could connect and tomorrow it might not...or If I reboot It usually goes to the "Invalid Sim Card" I have read other posts with issues of the same type from other users but found no solutions?? Baseband, RIL, Sim ect...all points to a bad phone(using t-mobile) because If I use any other carrier card in the phone it works without errors. That makes me think it's a firmware with t-mobile issue but I could be wrong? Hopefully if the replacement goes thru the same ICS 4.0 will be out and make this phone a beast again?
This might work or it might not: rename your APN manually (Settings/Wireless/Mobile networks/Access Point Names/edit) you can either edit or restore to default to restore mobile data connectivity. Try restoring to default.
I just accidentally hit Airplane mode and it killed it!!! Now it's back to the Invalid Sim Card error again...bummer!!!!
Wait a minute...I waited and read a few posts and clicked the Airplane mode off and on again and it came back to the t-mobile carrier..??? I still have not rebooted the phone though? Hmmm...should I?
Did you get a new sim card when you got the phone? I remember when I got this phone they told me not to use my 5 year old sim card from my previous phone. I say try a new sim card, if that doesn't work try to reset the apn with the instructions I posted last, and if that doesn't work it might just be a bad sim card reader.
I think more on the lines of a bad sim card reader...I have a new sim card...about a 3 days old, got it from t-mobile cause i had the older sim with the larger gold contact patch. The phone is already on order...they said 7 business days..

Yes some times that will work. Other times might take 2 reboots. Also sometimes toggleing airplane mode can bring back apn. After a few sim cards and all my problem went away. When I had the issue I was cm7 rom. Stock Rome didn't really seam to have this issue.
just to close this thread I already received my replacement phone from tmobile. I am no longer trying to track down the issue. Thanks for all of the replied and comments. every one who contributed will get a thanks from me.

Yes doing a hard reboot will reset the Apn/data loss problem. (Also toggling airplane mode would some times reset it.) This is only a tempory solution as it could happen again. On cm7 rc1 it would happen to me at least once a day. As well as many others. Off of the top of my head it was something wrong in a radio file.(? Not sure what file) shortly after the release cm7 stable 7.1.0.1 was posted. I believe that had the patch for the data loss issue. It is possible that some cm7 based Rome may still have a data issue loss as they might not have the updated patch. At the time stock based Roms did not have the issue and as far as know. Some people faced with this issue could have had a faulty sim or phone. The other thing that was happening during the life of this issue was how many people running cm7 based roms didn't have the issue. I no longer have this issue. I followed the bug report that was submitted and sealed out the sim card twice. (I think it was cm7 issue on my device) OP- I hope that this swap works for you. If it don't, I will be more that happy to help. also thank you for your service.
I have posted what I know and can remember here in hopes that it can help some one else out in the future.

When I had the phone I installed CM7, and the daily's...ect..It WAS a phone issue (hardware) I now have had the replacement phone for 1 week and no issues what so ever. That's not to say that the issue will arise again? I have rooted and am running no ROMs at the time but am thinking of going back to the FROYO 2.2 just to get the camera like it was in the older version. I hate the camera in GB 2.3.3. No zoom....c'mon LG..where did you guys lay down to sleep during this process if the development? One other feature that has nothing to do with the camera that I would like to see happen is to be able to enable a bluetooth mouse. I tried my Targus mouse and no luck. I think you can use a bluetooth keyboard but have none to test. I was thinking of shelling out the 160 smackers for the infared keyboard..small and can fit in your shirt pocket, and it's bluetooth.

[Q] [SOLVED] 'Hello hello'/Other side cant hear me properly

Hello XDA-Developers Forum
Since a week or two i got this annoying problem. When i call someone (or answer an incoming call), I can hear the other side clearly but they can't hear me. When i call my mum's phone to test it, and when i put the 'speaker' of hers on, and i shout at my own telephone, i can just hear a little whisper on my mum's phone speaker. Flashing an other ROM didn't seem to work. Also in Voodo Control, setting all settings to default didnt work..
Maybe someone else has experienced this too, and can help me with this?
I know flashing a stock ROM would maybe fix the problem but i dont know how that works.. There are like 10 stock ROMs to choose from; What one to pick?
EDIT: I've flashed to a stock ROM. Nothing changed. Problem not solved :l
83 views but no replies.. Come on guys, help please..
Sounds like a possible hardware issue. I would contact your carrier for warranty
Bad luck!
Flashing stock ROM next week and will contact the customer service..

If your fone is more than a year old.
If you don't have any warranty left, you can try this.
Open your fone, find the contacts that connect the microphone module to the motherboard. Clean it with alcohol, make sure they are in contact. Turn the contacts the other way slightly (eg, if they are at 30deg, make them 32deg.) assemble everything again. Or just give it to a professional.
I had same issue with my antenna. i used to get ZERO reception. i opened the fone, cleaned the contacs with alcohol, i got about 50% reception. i saw the surface was eroded so i colored that area with graphite pencil (don't ask why) and finally i got 100%. I know some may say its a ridiculous method. but it worked for me.
Try increasing the volume on your mums phone and test on someone elses phone as well to see if it's a problem with yours or your mums phone.
title
yes, try every possible combination, use different sim on your fone, call other fone for testing, put somebody elses sim in your fone, try talking thru headset etc. try everything. although i have a feeling he has already tried all that. but just to make sure before you take your next step.
PROBLEM SOLVED! There was just a lot of dirt in the 'pipe' thing of my mic

xt1033 anyone got problem talk no sound

Hi ,
I'm with stock no root, found problem about talking , serveral times that when make a call without any sound.
During that time data / wifi and everythings work as normal. I try on/off airplane but it's didn't work at all. Only reboot can solve this problem.
Btw I didn't make many call just 1-2 per day and I used only 1 sim.

Same Problem With Me
Yea ! I have also encountered this problem many a times.
Only reboot solved it.
Hope its just a software but and Motorola solves it soon
BTW I'm using only single sim.
Yes, this happened to me many times, especially during incoming calls. When this happened, I tried calling my other number, I couldn't even hear the dialer tone, though the call does go through. The speaker works in music, video apps, games etc. Tried pressing volume up/down to see if it toggled the sound. Nothing works except rebooting the phone.
Btw, I am using a stock rooted XT 1033, with a single SIM.
If you guys haven't rooted the phone, contact Motorola, and claim Warranty support. Perhaps they could tell you if it is a software related issue or not.
