So I was on my phone toady and all of a sudden the call seemed to transfer to my watch which was in another room, but obviously still connected to my phone over BT. The other caller hung up and called back as they thought I'd hung up. I answered on the phone and almost straight away the ongoing call went to the watch again. After going to the watch for a third time, I had to turn off BT on the phone to keep the call on the phone! Any ideas why this may have happened, and what I can do to prevent it happening again? I was under the impression that the device that initiated/took the call would be default device for the duration of that call.

OK I scanned to forums and I don't see anybody else having this issue:
Ever since I put WM6 on the phone, everything has worked great. Everything except one little tiny but extremely significant detail- the phone is randomly redialing itself!
Example, my last outbound call for the day was to my mom at 7:00PM. I'm then woken up at 3:00 in the morning, and its my mom calling ME, I ask her "what's wrong" and she said "you just called here, we thought there was an emergency"
I check the call log, and sure enough, my phone dialed her house at 2:58.
So anyway, as you can see this is a serious problem. I can't figure out what is causing this. I've been turning my phone off at night and turning it on in the morning. Usually when I turn it on, it will re-dial the last caller, as I watch.
Can somebody help me? Is this a known bug? (What the hell?!) If I can't fix it, can I go back to WM5? (It definitely started when WM6 was installed)
Suddenly today, around an hour ago, I found out that I am not able to call from my Fuze. I can dial, but I don't hear any ring of the number I am calling. I put the SIM card in other phone and it can make calls. I am now sure what is wrong, could someone please provide some much needed suggestions?
I wouldn't have opened this thread as a new issue, and even if later it gets moved, I am seeking some urgent help, so I am posting it as a thread. Thanks.
Did you check in the comm manager to see if you turned airplane mode on or turned the radio off?

Yes, I did and the Airplane mode is off and the Radio is on. Somehow, not being able to call has coincided with not being able to connect to 3G too. The problem happened all of as sudden. I even made some calls this morning from my Fuze, and suddenly, it just would not make any more calls from it. Any more suggestions? I really don't want to hard reset it, as I have so much customization on it. Thanks.
i would backup and preform a HR to make sure it's hardware related
is the speaker bad? does the phone work on speakerphone?
does the call fail?
Agreed do a hard reset...if that doesnt work its the phone itself and a warranty issue. Which AT&T will take care of
I want to avoid a hard reset; I did it just last week. I understand why you would suggest to do that, but I want to avoid it, if I can.
The speakers work just fine; I played music. While on a call, I can't hear anything. The call seems to be in progress, but no party can hear anything. I haven't spoken to any person I called to verify if they received my call. If this could be something to do with radio, is there a way to deal with it? I am using everything stock. Please keep your suggestions coming.

The music and the speaker form calling are not the same, does it work on speakerphone?
Thanks for your response scotchua. The speakerphone was not working, to answer your question.
Update: I can make calls now.
But, instead of closing this thread, I would like to keep it alive, as I don't know what created the problem and what solved it. As I said, when I couldn't make calls, the data connection was not getting established either. If it was a problem with the connection or AT&T's tower, I would not have been able to make calls when I inserted my sim card into another phone. For about 6 - 7 hours, I had to use another phone, which does not have the features that Fuze has.
later in the evening, I put the sim cad back into Fuze, just to try if it worked, and it did work; I can make calls now. This actually complicates the problem, as I don;t know what caused it and it scares me that this can happen again and I, or anyone else who would be having a similar problem, will not know how to fix it. If keeping this thread alive does not seem like a waste of time to the community, please provide more suggestions regarding what may have caused the problem. Thanks.
i had the same problem with my fuze. I could not hear from the phone when making a call, but i could hear from the speakerphone. I reset the phone, changed ROM and tried everything. Nothing worked so I had to return the phone for a replacement.
Hi guys, this is a very particular problem and it's annoying the hell out of me. Can't find any reference to it anywhere.
Phone was working flawlessly until a firmware update was pushed by Samsung, taking me to the APEQ firmware version. Since then, the phone will become unresponsive whenever this scenario happens:
Connected to bluetooth (BMW 3-Series, 2015)
On an ongoing phone call
A second call comes in, but I don't answer it. I don't reject it either, I just let it ring.
Phone freezes, Loses connection to the car. Original call drops. Will become unresponsive for several minutes, or outright reboot by itself.
I've noticed that the phone app itself seems to be slow to execute any action: Start a call, blank screen for 3-5 seconds. End a call: Phone app screen frozen, phone unresponsive for 3-5 seconds.
I haven't rooted my phone, but I've rooted all my android devices in the past, so I'm not a stranger to it.
Any suggestions? I'd like to avoid flashing a new ROM because of the hassle (I just don't have the time to fiddle with a new ROM) and my SD card is encrypted...
Thank you all
I have similar on Galaxy Note 4 and also Galaxy Edge after marshmallow update. If using bluetooth, cant answer next call even if first call is diconnected already. phone freezes, rings forever, cant answer thru phone (nothing shows up on screen even saying there is a call, not in call log either)-- phone will sometimes reboot or i have to pull battery to get it to stop ringing. I also never know who called because no record in call logs of the perpetually ringing call.
I have a 2016 Chevy Trax. No issues whatsoever pairing the Bluetooth with my J7. Listen to music from the phone, take calls, messages get notified through car speaker etc.
Then I noticed about a week ago...the phone connection stopped working. I discovered it was not only my car, but Bluetooth headset too.
I can pair my phone. Music will play. If I get a message I can hear it. If I have Google Maps on I can hear the voice.
However, if the phone rings, I can not hear it. If someone is on the other end. They say they can hear me. I hear nothing.
If I press "Speaker" on my phone, I can hear the person through the phone and they can hear me. However as soon as I turn the Bluetooth back on...I lose them. In my car it says going to Private Mode....and I can hear through the phone. But as soon as I reconnect to the Bluetooth....I hear nothing.
I have tried everything...to no avail. Took out the battery for soft reset. Found all the Bluetooth apps in the "system apps" setting. Deleted all the caches. Disabled "Ok Google". Only thing I have not done is a factory reset. Last resort.
My wife has the exact same phone. Hers acts the same. Leads me to believe it is from the last update which happened a week or so ago.
I hope this makes sense and I hope someone can help!
Mike
I am having the exact same issue. Appears the call sound and mic aren't working. This update was to Samsung Experience 9.5
Same here. Bluetooth calls in my car stop working after last android update. No sound on call from both sides.
I'd tryed some suggestions from post on the web but nothing seems to work.
Waiting for a solutions from Google or Samsung.
Good afternoon,
I have a T-Mobile Oneplus 7 Pro (had it for 2 weeks now), it is SIM unlocked at this time and I am waiting on the token from Oneplus which I should have this evening if the 7 day rule still applies.
Issues mostly started today and I have done everything except for a factory reset.
1) When I receive a phone call and answer it the phone is automatically on speaker instead of phone although the icon shows as phone. To fix during the call I switched to speaker then back to phone and it was fine. Next call in, same thing again. This just started today, prior to that it operated normally
2) Related to #1, when connected to the Bluetooth in my truck and a call comes in instead of being on Bluetooth like it had been it will be on phone (ear piece) setting. Again to correct during call I switched to phone then back to Bluetooth and works correctly, again until the next call comes in. This issue started today, prior to that it operated normally
3) No matter what I have my ring volume set at the phone will always ring very quietly, most of the time I will not hear it and miss calls due to this. I know the speaker is fine as I can set it to as loud as it'll go and you can definitely hear it as well as videos, but no matter what it keeps doing the low volume ring. This started last night, prior to that it operated normally
4) Certain apps when opening freeze and end up having to force close the app. I will attempt a second time opening and almost always the same thing happens again. I have uninstalled/re-installed these apps and that changes nothing. I also have a Oneplus 6t and a Note 9, both have exact same apps and they work flawlessly on them. This started yesterday, prior to that it operated normally
5) My wife also has the 7 pro and has the issue with #4 above as well. Thankfully thus far that is all she is experiencing with it. Her issue began about 3-5 days ago.
I am not certain what the issue is, but if someone has any ideas let me know as I am not changing this to international version until I know if the phone itself has an issue.
Thanks!
I had the Bluetooth speaker issue both ways as you explained. I had my Galaxy watch paired and allowed to receive calls I shut that off and seems to have fixed it for me.

I have had the issue with #1 on the T-Mobile version few times. I switched to the international version and didn't have it at all. Switched back to the T-Mobile version last night and the first incoming call that I answered was that way. I think this is an issue with the T-Mobile version and it seems sporadic, at least on mine. Most likely gonna be switching back to the international version until I decide to to a JOD upgrade sometime down the road, plus the camera is so much better on the international version.
I have issue #2, like mikeb85, I also have a galaxy watch paired. I'll see if his solution fixes mine as well. Issue #4 for me seems to be related to restoring certain apps via OnePlus switch in my case. A fresh install of those apps (usually ones requiring permissions allowed by a pop-up) fixed that for me
Might be a good idea to just do a full factory reset just for safe measure. If it's still not working right, I would warranty a replacement.
I know it sounds like a cop out, but the only issue I'm experiencing is just the Ghost touching in the top right of the device.
Other than that, I just reboot and it's all good.
