vox problems with recieving calls and sms

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..
An idea?

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

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S duos s7562

Do any one have performance issue with Samsung Galaxy S duos s7562.
I am very much disappointed with my device as it will get stuck on screen. Huge Lag time. Will take time to go to application after clicking on icon. Cannot play HD videos. While receiving calls the screen will go black, You can hear the ring but cannot see anything on screen. Any help will be appreciated.

I don't have such issues with it at all!quite good,only problem is low internal memory..
---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 PM ----------
I forgot something to tell u,there is something called Power Saving mode in the options,turn it off!if it's on it will cause a big lag and bad performance to save battery life,check it out..PEACE

I'm quite happy with its performance. No such thing happened to me.
Not only the awareness of the performance, but I have concern about its internal storage so I tried not to overload the phone by installing the big apps even I wish to.
By the way, anybody has recommendation of how to move the installed apps to External SD Card.
I need to install some more apps but don't want the internal memory to getting low while my External SD Card is almost unused.
My Link2SD and App2SD cannot move my apps by unknown reasons (maybe need additional steps and need to know how). Thanks.

I just received my S7562 today. And indeed there is a very noticible lag the moment you activate power savings.
I'm also having some problems;
1) the phone is still not showing up in the devices list on Google Play, but I can download apps from the device itself
2) It does not have an option for "National Data Roaming". My SIM with the data connection, is on a provider which is an MVNO with its own network ID. As such the network ID of the SIM and the network ID of the network don't match and the device thinks its in roaming mode and disables data. Obviously I can enable "Data roaming", but that also enables data roaming out of the country which can be very costly!
My wifes Sony Xperia does have this option, as does Cyanogenmod
3) I'm hoping this phone can get rooted. I would love to get rid of the "TouchWiz" rubish and get a clean Android image. If I did not need the dual-sim functionality, I would have gotten something like the Galaxy Nexus instead
*Edit*
Issue 1 is solved, it just took some time to show up on Google Play.

guyz some1 post hw to root this phone re plz

I did some more testing, and have some more issues as a result
1) storage. the internal 4GB storage seems to be split into 2. Of which 1.78GB is available as /mnt/sdcard
The actual sdcard instead gets mounted as /mnt/extSdCard and as an effect appears to be unusable for most apps.
If someone knows of a trick to mount the MicroSD card as /mnt/sdcard I would love to hear about it..
2) the real purpose of this phone, dual-SIM. I had understood that while most dual-SIM phones are only dual-standby, this phone is actually a Dual-Active model, such that you can have a call active, and still receive a call on the other SIM. But in my testing, the moment one SIM has an active call going, the second line is dead. This is not what I needed!
When I go into the SIM card manager -> Dual SIM always on and try to enable "Dual SIM always on enab...", it give me a dialog with "Updating Settings" and after a while I get a Failed dialog telling me
[SIM 1]
Call forwarding: Failed
Call waiting: Enabled
[SIM 2]
Call forwarding: Failed
Call waiting: Enabled

Hi robert__,
I got the phone at Monday and of course I was most interested in the Dual-Active feature so I made several tests.
As a result I must that it works for me. After enabling "Dual SIM always on enab..." it took some time to activate and it passed finally. So I dial one of my SIMs, receive call and keep it connected. Then I call from another phone to the second SIM, phone starts ringing and I was able to put previous call on hold and pick up this one. So the result was both calls to my two SIMs were connected - one of them active, one of them on hold. And I was able to switch between them.
I expect that the phone somehow cheats with the Call forwarding feature of the network and maybe that's why you did not succeed.
But I was so far not able to find out the mechanism cause in my call lists at both operators there are no forwarded calls recorded and also no fees for the forwarding were counted yet (and they should be according to pricelists if call is really forwarded to another operator).

Hi tristone,
I think I don't fully understand how the "Dual SIM always on enabled" is meant to work. I figured it would work truely almost as if they are separate phones. Not that it tries to forward calls from one network to another, which I don't want to have happen anyway as the two SIMs are from providers in different countries and could cause high fees.
My understanding was that forwarding calls to the other SIM is a practise used by dual-SIM phones that only support dual-standby.

I did some tests.
I booted the device with volume up, home and power key pressed. And when it started to vibrate I let go of the power key and I got a screen asking if I wanted to install a custom ROM. I started ODIN3 and it seems to recognize the device, but without a custom ROM I could not do much more.
I also was able to use adb to get a shell prompt, but without root access obviously.
I suspect a rooting similar to CF-Root for the S3 should be possible.

hi r0bert.
i have the same pr0blem with the dual sim function, 0ne 0f my sims (sim1) is a credit one that hasnt any credit in it, an the one (sim2) is m0nthly paid.
when im talking with my sim1 and i call the 0ther sim with an0ther ph0ne it g0es t0 call waiting, BUT, when im talking with my sim2, the 0ther call t0 my sim1 is out of range (becuase it hasnt any credit in it t0 f0rward the call), s0 i think, samsung has cheated here, i buaght this ph0ne ONLY becuase it said dual sim ACTIVE...
i only hope that the JB update will fix it, if its p0ssible...

Hello good evening
I agree with some statements said above, this mobile phone becomes slow when it happened but rather have the battery saving mode active.
This process reduces the cpu usage of the mobile phone that just makes the mobile phone becomes much slower.
Apart from that I think this mobile phone very good, like everything in life is not perfect but does not disappoint at all levels.
Would you like to leave a question in this debate, someone of you know how to access the recovery of this mobile phone?
Already the My thanks

decent performance
I have been using Galaxy S duos for a few days now and I am happy with the phone! When compared to the existing dual SIM phones in the market, I feel, this is the best! I have used to HTC desire V too. It has a decent screen, hardware could have been better! The current market price for this mobile is around 16K and at that price point it is a good buy!
I have installed apps, configured atleast 8 email id's, angry birds, temple run, etc & I have not faced freezing or process hanging as of now! The main concern however is that of using the external memory! This phone does not have a real primary external storage. We can not move apps to a SD card!
Main camera is decent for ocasional photograaphy and can take good pictures in good lighting conditions. The LED flash is powerful enough however the processing capabilities of the sensor under flash is not that great!

However, that first requires that the device is rooted.

battery saving mode
Yes the battery saving mode make phone lagging. That mode reduce CPU power and brightness, search for setting, it is possible to disable making CPU slower.

Right, but 'soon' for Samsung could be a year based on experience with my Galaxy Tab 10.1 for the upgrade to ICS.

The issue related to Call forwarding might be due to your mobile operator. Ther eare some operator will not allow call to other operator sim.

Hi there,
I have got my S Duos on 25th of September and after few days I discovered :laugh: the option which let you select power saving mode without slowing down the CPU Performance; i.e, it won't limits the CPU performance. Go to

[Q] Problem with making and receiving calls

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.
Sent from my Nexus S

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..

[Q] Cant make calls with my phone anymore

Hi,
I have a big problem, i bought a Inew V3 about 3 weeks ago, and evrything worked fine
After a week or so i downloaded mobileuncle tools and just checked around what settings there was. I apparently changed something as i cannot make any calls or take any calls anymore..
I can send and get text SMS though and i can go on the internet aswell
When i try to make a call it says. "Call Forwarding" "On Conditional" and hangs up
I tried to reset the phone, still the same problem
I have also tried to flash another rom, and another sim card, but i still cant make any calls
SIM card works fine in my galaxy s2 with im using right now till i get this phone fixed

MAN thats really a lot of settings.
I don't own this phone. In the seetings you will face "CFU" (Call forwarding unconditioned) what means always forward calls. Screenshot shows "default" you can also choose always query OR always not query
Thats clearly RELATED to the call forwarding. May be try both setting.
BTW have you simply tried out the other simslot?

Next: Type/dial ##002# as it will deavtivate all conditional forwarding
That will help in most cases.
Just for your information: "conditional forwarding" settings are stored to your provider NOT to your sim // telephone. The phone will just read out the provider settings stored for BUT NOT actually to you simcard.

Tried the ##002# now and still dosent work.
So it must be something else than conditional forwarding
If i take out the sim and put it back in my old phone(galaxy s2) it works perfect
Anyone else that has an idea?
Thanks again for the reply

Just to be clear about it:
Have you performed getting phone fully back to stock? Not flashing a rom BUT using the manufactirers files? They should delete everything and set phone back to FULL stock as it seems the issue is "stored" in the phone and not to your sim

SMS not sent in Poco X3 (karna) (Indian version)

Heyy Guys,
I'm creating this post after facing terrible issues and embarrassing situations because I can't send sms from my Poco X3. It's a new phone and barely a month old, and I've tried uninstalling updates for career services app, Google messages app rebooting the phone and what not!! Still rarely on some lucky day I can send sms and rest of the time I can't..!! It's really frustrating when you need to do online payment and need to send a verification text..!
Thankfully @Dandito from XDA forum replied to a thread for another poco phone and he said that
"The problem is existing only when the VOLTE service is enabled. Try to move on 3G only or just stop Volte under 4G and it will be ok. Unfortunately Xiaomi are using some specific technology for volte sms sending and the your network provider does not support it. The phone is trying to send SMS through SS7 instead of SIP protocol when VoLTE is enabled. I'm trying to find a hidden menu where I can eventually switch or choose a protocol but without success."
This fix worked for me miraculously therefore kudos to him for finding this..!! Respect+++++++ for this guy!!!
Now if anyone can find a fix for using volte and sending sms at the same time then please please do reply to this thread!! I'm trying my best to find a solution but your help would be great too!!
I did some tests and I have new findings..! Please hear me out!
I can't send sms from my sim in poco x3 when volte is on!!! And when it's off then also rarely it works... sometimes I can't receive any otp on this phone!!
Do note that this idea 4g sim works perfectly and can send and receive sms in my realme 1 with volte on !
Now other sim cards work perfectly in my poco x3!! I tried everyones sim in my house and it worked fine..!!
Now if I complain to idea people then they'll say that it works well on another phone so please complain to phone company..!
And if I go to poco then they'll say that change your simcard as other sim works fine!!!
I'm genuinely tired and frustrated and I get heavy embarrassed while making online payments and imp work stuff!! Sending and receiving SMS is fundamental and necessary and this is barely a month old device!!!
Guys any suggestions would be heavily appreciated

I use Volte on both my SIMS and send SMS normally. Jio and Vi (Vodafone Idea).

Regular stock ROM that came with my phone.
MIUI 12.0.8. Are you sure this is an actual problem that exists or something wrong particularly with your device. I haven't heard of anyone having this problem of being unable to send SMS while on VoLTE. I have multiple devices and multiple providers and they work fine on all of them too.

Well since your steps of troubleshooting have failed to reach a singular conclusion, I have a feeling that something got messed up during original pairing of your phone and that particular SIM card.
One test says your phone is fine because other SIMS do their job just fine.
Other test says your SIM is fine because if you put it in another phone and they do their job fine.
Which leads me to one conclusion. There is some kind of pairing glitch with that particular SIM and your phone.
I have only a few suggestions. And you might want to do them ANYWAY.
1: Go to Idea (now Vi) showroom, ask for a replacement SIM. You don't need to explain to them why you need it. Just say it doesn't work or it's scratched. Don't tell them about it working on other phones etc. New SIM costs around 30 - 100 depending if they follow official process or want money in their pockets. Activates within 4 hours with the same plan but OTP will not work for 24 hours.
2: In the meanwhile or if you can't get a replacement SIM use Isopropyl alcohol and clean the current SIM you have.
3: Factory reset your phone WITHOUT your SIM inside and set it up fully without the SIM. (Make sure you remove your Google Account before the Factory Reset.)
4: Last if all else fails. Take your phone to Mi Service Center and make up some stupid reason and ask them to flash your phone. Tell them you have already Factory Reset (3 times 4 times etc) and that it didn't work. By default they automatically will jump to Flashing it, no questions asked.
They will also flash a version of MIUI around 1 or 2 versions behind current version.
All the best and please update after trying these steps.

Dayyyyuuummmm...!! I'll definitely try that Man...!! Thanks a lot for those suggestions...!! Will surely update here in detail once the issue is resolved..!

For reference, I faced a similar issue with my Idea SIM after I got it replaced once. I could NOT absolutely make any calls on 3G.
Everyone's SIM in my phone the calls worked fine, my SIM in others phones ALSO worked fine for making calls on 3G. But there was something particularly wrong with this CURRENT SIM and my PHONE together.
I got a new SIM for 30/-
It got activated within 20 minutes.
Everything works fine now.
(No needed to Factory Reset)
It's some pairing miscommunication that occurs at the time of activation and that error somehow stays with the card and phone combined. I'm not an expert on this so I could be wrong.
Technology is weird.

Also one wierd little detail I'd like to share..! As we have Google apps in dialer and messages....and this is for messages app in particular..! Whenever I receivet these flash message or pop-ups of remaining balance or recharge expiry days left after every phone call or sms..... then in my current sim card it comes as a full page banner anything that's currently running will be interrupted unless I cancel that persistent flash message and then continue my work...like full opaque page no transparent or translucent or anything!! And if I put other sim cards then it'll literally show up in the bottom without any interruption!! Just a small place at the bottom of screen...!!! Such wierd stuff happens man! I still can't figure out the reason for that!! Both sim of same company and same recharge plans...still they have completely different behaviour and quality.... technology is genuinely wierd

Same issue with my new Vi SIM. (Didn't happen when it was iDea SIM on the same phone). I have tried every possible thing to block this behavior including contacting my service provider to let them know I don't need the messages cause I'm on Unlimited pack.
This is more to do an issue with the way Vi sends those messages as a priority/emergency and not as a regular USSD message.

I'm glad to be of help. I knew the issue was with that particular SIM pairing. Here's some bonus information for you.
Type *199# in VI
Then send 2
Then send 2
Then send 4
This will stop the Data Notification.
If I have genuinely helped you please give all the comments I've made that helped you a THUMBS UP.
That would really be appreciated on XDA
