[Completed] Samsung Galaxy S5 call waiting not working! / phone won't update either, what do I do - XDA Assist

Hi, My S5 call waiting is CRAZY! When a call comes in through call waiting, 2 things happen:
1. I cant pick up the new incoming call! After swiping it stays on call #1. And then
2. Whether I swipe for the new call or not, It will hang up both calls after 5 seconds!
I thought updating may help,but I continuously get a "check back later Update is unavailable"(my wording) message through my phone,or it wont allow me to update through the Verizon update fix while plugged into the pc.
This really is a pain because of clients and its embarrassing. Please help!
Details: Its a Verizon phone on a Metro PCS Network, software g900vvru1ank2, android4.4.4

Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
If your device is on Metro instead of Verizon then you won't get the update to work because you are not on Verizon's network anymore.

[Q] How to prevent USSD message from being sent?

Hey.
I'm not really sure where this question is belong to, so I'm posting it here and in "Android Q&A" as well, hopefully to get a decent answer...
I've just bought an Android phone (JIAYU F1 - link here), and it's really great.
Thing is, I have special SIM from my carrier, that allows me to use only certain models of phones, and not others.
I moved the SIM from the old phone to the new one - and for the first 10 second - it was great.
I could dial numbers, and recive call from other phones. BUT - after like 10 sec's or so - I saw the words "USSD sent" on the screen, some blank message appears, and since I clicked OK (no other choice...) - I couldn't make and receive any calls.
My guess is that this "USSD message" is responsible for the whole mess, reporting to my carrier which phone model using the SIM right now.
This is why I want to find a way to prevent it to be sent to my carrier.
I'll be thankful if you can help find this way...
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Samsung S5 ROM Doubt...

First of all I can't post in development forum, so I am posting here.
I am using Samsung S5 ROM for past one month and my network operator is Air tel.The problem is that there is no network when I am in my class.But network is available outside my class.So,when in class if I get a missed call,I don't get any call.But after I get into network area,since I am using air tel I get a missed call alert message. After this alert,I get a missed call. (This missed call shows time at which I receive the message).This missed call tricks me into thinking that the call is at the present time,but no one is calling me.
I don't know whether this is due to my Network Operator or the ROM.
Thanks.(Move this post into development section,if possible).

First of all ur query will not come in development section, its correct here. And its ur operator problem. Rom has nothing to do with it. Airtel signal strength may be low or nil when u r in class. Thats the reason

[Completed] [Q] Connectivity issues with Nexus 6 under wifi network

When phone is under WIFI network, have poor connectivity in making and receiving calls. Callers are unable to get connected - the caller doesn't get thru many times without getting any engaged or other tone. Same way, calling out also doesn't get thru without getting any busy or other tone. If the wi fi is disabled, phone works fine for both incoming and outgoing calls.
Using Airtlel in India - have changed SIM card, updated software to 5.1 but problem is unresolved. Please advise.
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. I can see you've asked the same question in two other places:
Can't make calls
[Q] Poor call connectivty under wifi network
Please refer to the XDA Forum Rules for information regarding the creation of duplicate posts/threads.
Seeing as you already have this question in the appropriate place (Nexus 6 q&a section) I'll close this thread and let you continue there.
Thread closed, thanks.

[Completed] HELP!!!!!

I added a new dialer and thought that i could deleted the default apk that came with the phone and now i have lost everything and do not know how to get it back. i can call out but cant take incoming calls, dial digits in call, or any other things you can do after you dial number. i only can hang up from the true phone app that gives me the option to end call, but i can not dial a number if needed while in the call. (like when calling the bank) Someone please help i am pretty knowledgeable but made a stupid mistake and thought it was backed up but my sd card crashed and it never said what i deleted so I am not experience enough to deal with this.
I need immediate help best to reach me by email [email protected] or facebook maurice v dawson sr.
phone is alcatel onetouch fierce 2
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Your best bet is to return your device to stock and start over again. Unfortunately there is not a specific forum on XDA for your device. So you might try asking for help here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help

Text and data but no voice on Moto G4 Play XT1607 over MintSim

I'm new here. I did an internet search and an XDA search for my problem, but found nothing useful for my particular situation. I am posting in the General forum instead of the phone specific forum to reach a wider group of users and because this may not be a phone specific issue. I hope this is OK.
Yesterday I activated my MintSim account on a new Moto G4 Play, XT1607 with Android 6.01, and ported my old number from Page Plus to the new account. Now I have text and data, but no voice. Contacted MintSim support yesterday and followed their instructions to remove sim card and power down the phone, wait 5 minutes, re-insert sim and power up. No fix. I did a factory reset, re-entered all relevant info, still no fix. Reported results to support by email but it seems that MintSim support had checked out for TG, so I am left to my own devices until they return. I wasn't aware that India celebrated TG
When I try to make a call, the phone on the other end rings (I can't here it at my end), the call is answered, but dead silence is all the callee hears. I also hear dead silence. When my phone is called, it rings, but nothing but dead silence when answered. The call is logged by the OS. The carrier takes voice mail messages and the little voice mail icon appears at the top, but I can't access it. This behavior takes place when I have the strongest possible signal as indicated by the little triangle at the top of the screen. Sound volume is at the highest for everything.
I hope I have posted enough info to elicit suggestions for a fix, but if more is needed I of course would be more than happy to supply it. Thanks to all for your generous help. To quote Blanche, "I have always depended on the kindness of strangers."
