Phone keeps sending message when call not picked up - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone else has this problem-
Phone is in your pocket. It rings but you don't answer as it's on silent etc
You miss the call or the other person puts the phone down.
The s6 automatically goes to this messaging screen and counts down before sending a message to the person who called you without you even realising.
It only seems to happen when the phone is in my pocket. I have removed all of the auto reject messages and cannot see any other option in the settings of the phone, dialler or messaging that may do this. The three dot hover does not show anything when pressed.
Any help is very welcome as I think my friends and family are getting annoyed by these messages that I am in a meeting.
Many thanks

Can't see who's calling... (?)

Hi,
Do any of you 750 owners have seen this before?
Lately (a week or so ago) I started to get calls and the "notification" popup won't come up. I hear the ring and vibrate and there is a phonecall icon on the top bar next to the data arrows but the notification is missing so I can't see who's calling.
If/when I answer I can finally see the caller information.
This doesn't happen with every call (probably with about half of them per day).
Any idea or did you hear about something similar?
Thanks,
Zax.
Haven't had that particular problem, but I've had other issues when calls come in.
Sometimes (after I've put the device from silent to regular mode using the top slider) the phone doesn't ring and doesn't vibrate although the call notification is showing on screen. This gets fixed after one or more soft resets.
On a fair few other occasions - this is intermittent and extremely annoying - the phone doesn't react at all when someone calls me (no notification, no vibrate, no ring - nothing) but I get a audible and visible missed call notification after the caller has given up / been diverted to voicemail. This problem goes away of its own accord eventually; restarts don't seem to have any effect.
Seriously, if this device wasn't a fairly good PDA as well as a phone, I'd put it in the bin.

how to get rid of the "call ended" notification pop up

Every time a call ends, i get a "call ended" notification pop up telling me how much time it was.
is there a way to get rid of this notification, its really annoying.
It only does that when you end a call and you are not on the main "call" screen. If you disable touchscreen while on calls it is very hard to get off of that screen (unless you want to) and you won't get the popup.
Your cheek is probably touching something thats making the screen change.
thanks, it does seem to only happen when i leave the Call screen.
i wish i could turn it off completely though.
i just noticed now that im having issues with the phone being delayed when i get a call. my bluetooth headset will make a sound announing that a call is coming in but the treo wont show the caller id or ring for at least 3-5 seconds after. its very strange. even the screen goes on but it takes a while for the caller id pop up to show up.
is anyone else having this problem, is there a way to fix it?

Incoming calls in background

So I was typing a message this morning when a call came in. Before I even realized it, the incoming call screen popped up and I hit the Decline button. Is there an app or mod or setting I'm not aware of that will keep the incoming call screen from coming up when another app is in use? I read that CyanogenMod has a setting like that. The phone rings and a notification appears but the Accept/Decline buttons don't pop up immediately. Is there a way to get that functionality on a Sense ROM?

SMS notification sound doesn't play if SMS arrives after screen turns off

My S6 and S4 did this too, so I'm wondering if there's a workaround.
If I'm having an SMS conversation with someone, while the phone is in my hand, I get the SMS notification sound as normal, but then I put the phone down next to me and if a new SMS arrives somewhere between the screen turning off and the phone locking itself, there is no notification sound and so if someone adds something to the conversation, I inevitably miss it until next time i check my phone.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about? is there a workaround? Thanks
it has been like that for alot of the samsung phone. I dont think there is a way to change it.
Normally i just reply and back out of the app before leaving the phone

S10e weird notification with Whatsapp call

So I've been having this problem for a while now. Basically, when someone calls me on Whatsapp, I can hear ringtone but turning locksreen shows nothing. Same thing when I unlock the phone, say for example I am on the home screen, I can hear ringtone, but no pops up notification to tell that a Whatsapp call is taking place.
So, this means: 1) if I'm at the lockscreen and get Whatsapp call, I would have no way to answer or end call. 2) if I unlock and use the phone and the Whatsapp calls come, I also dont know if it is Whatsapp and also cannot swipe down from notification and accept/reject call.
So, I would need to physically open Whatsapp and then it would show a call is coming through and so i can accept/reject call.
Reinstalling whatsapp fixed this problem. However, I believe it is only temporary. My settings: AOD off, Edge Lightning off and does not send notification for Whatsapp.
Does anyone else experience similar problem? Strangely, Whatsapp call is the only thing that causes problem.
