Time stands still during calls - stock S10 - General Questions and Answers

I've been looking everywhere for any discussion of this issue, and found nothing.
Often during a call with a certain person who tends to ramble, I need to check the time of day. I look at the screen of my S10 and the time of day is not updating. No matter how long the call is, the time does not change.
As soon as I hang up, the time updates and is again displayed correctly.
Has anyone else observed this phenomenon? Is there a fix?

Is the RC33 Upgrade responsible for sms/calls Buggy Behavior?

I am in Baltimore Maryland... Ever since i upgraded to jf's rc33 firmware, i get aloooooooooot of " undelivered message" notifications. This never used to happen to me, maybe once a week with 2 messages. In most cases people ask me why the F am i triple texting, and it happens when i try to resend the messages and the phone keeps saying "message cannot be delivered". Is anyone else experiencing this? In maryland only perhaps?
I have tried keeping message count below 100, reseting the phone seems to be the only quick fix. One other thing, when i try to make phonecalls every now and then, the **** just hangs up as soon as the call is placed and when i receive a call sometimes and i press the answer key, it takes about 10 seconds to answer and continues to ring. suggestions buddys?
Make sure you delete your SMS threads if they get too long. Typically once threads get past 150 they are slow and take a while to open. If you are using the stock sms try chomp seems to handle threads better. I have JFRC33 and have not issues.
My wife and I have the exact same problem with the phone hanging up and not picking up a call for while. And dropped calls - almost always. And we live in the heart of Dallas.
yea the g1 is a nice phone, but either android or t-mobile blows..
every now and then people call me, and i get a missed call, but the phone never rings,
and sometimes when i call people, they pick up but one of us cant hear the other,
and sometimes, the g1 will ring, but when i press the green button to anwser, the phone continues to ring
im getting pissed off,
rc29, rc33 both fail to work
I am in Baltimore as well, and I have JF1.42 RC33, without any of the problems you have. Sorry, can't be of more assistance, but maybe your SIM card is old and needs to be replaced? I have heard of them causing issues sometimes.
yup same thing is happening to my phone. it is really starting to piss me off. i thought it was cuz i dropped my phone but i guess others have been getting the same thing. i hope theres a fix for this
I had this happen to me about two days ago. SMS failed to send to anyone. I restarted the phone and havent had a problem since. They are still developing this unit, so try to be patient.
i've had some calling issues recently, both making and receiving.
sometimes when receiving a call, i'll pick up and my phone will reboot, and take absolutely ages to boot up. and when making calls the other end will sometimes go completely dead and it's the same for the other person.
only happens very occasionally but it's happened with a few landline calls and different mobile networks. only been since RC33 too. not saying it's related but it is kinda annoying.
Wipe fixes all
unless the problem's firmware/hardware related, then it does **** all.
Wipe and wait
Could be too many apps eating memory on the G1 and/or buggy apps crashing buggy android. The best you can do is download mybackup from market, back up all data +sms+ageda etc, Wipe the phone. An dont install a single app from the market in 1-3 days and see if problems dissapear.
Personally, i never install any app who claims to "start at boot" Never. MyBackup is one of them and always delete it after backup. i may be wrong but i thing resident in memory apps and apps who starts at boot degrades performance over time, because many of them are buggy so i avoid using them. Well my phone runs fine with this.
buggy behavior
well i think this happen when phone memory is full, try to delete least used applications, clear applications cache like browser and youtube , then do a reset.
Ive had the issue more than a few times where the phone will start ringing but the screen will stay dark, i wait until it turns on to see who is calling after a few rings and then it wont respond to pressing the answer button unless i press it a few times, and even then it takes its sweet time answering. Ive dropped plenty of calls due to this, and yes it has only started happening after the radio firmware/RC33 update.

Oh... don't even start my on "MyBackup"... I kept trying to figure out why my phone was lagged so much when I was going back to home screen. Uninstalled apps that were running all the time one by one. MyBackup and Phonebook were 2 biggest memory hogs. Phone runs oh so smooth after I unistalled those 2. Backgrounds app still autostarts for some reason but I like that app too much to uninstall and it does not cause as many problems.

I still have this problem after another wipe..
why does android suck...
i wish tmo would come out with a winmo 3g phone, so much more stable and with more features =(.. i miss my shadow now
I started running into the issue of the phone not actually responding to the "answer call" button, but found it was only happening when I had auto-rotate set up with the DroidSans tools and the display had been rotated to landscape. It seemed like it would start trying to switch to portrait, then lock itself up long enough for the call to go to voicemail, then flip to portrait and be responsive again. I haven't had the problem since I disabled auto-rotate.
However, on the "too many apps" thing, I've suddenly started noticing that my phone will start a good 15-20 apps on startup, including things like AK Notepad. I didn't notice if this was something that started with RC33 or if I've done something else to make this happen...does this happen with anyone else?
I have had a similar issue with my g1 dropping calls and will sometimes see a force close while on a call as well. I did a wipe and did not enable auto rotation and so far it seems to be running more smoothly.
Been there done that...I am having the same issues and it is beginning to drive me nuts. I make heavy heavy use of my phone on a daily basis. Dropping calls where they just go to la la land...or the phone rings and I cannot answer for about 10 to 15 seconds, the phone just reboots for no reason... stupid things like that. I have RC33 rooted, radio upgraded with JF 1.41 and this has been happening daily about 3 times or so a day. I love my G1 and I have a hard time parting with it...I am trying to be patient while it develops but...I am about to go get the 8900 curve...
I forgot to mention...I had to do a wipe on my phone also due to a problem with the accelerameter and that did not help this issue either.

it seems to me that it is tmob related, since i`ve had that b4 on my lil nokia phone.

Does anyone else's Sensation crash periodically?

I did a quick search and didn't seem to find anything for 'crash'.
I've had my phone since the July 5th release date in Canada and since then it's probably crashed 6-7 times.
I can never tell what's crashing it (each time felt different).
once i specifically started noting what crashed it, one was in the middle of writing an email in the Gmail app when I hit backspace. Surely the Gmail app that came loaded with the phone isn't crashing it?
Another time I was just exiting an app via the back button and the screen turned black.
The other few times I don't recall.
Is anyone else experincing this? Is there any type of debugger or crash log for the phone? If no one else is experiencing this, it stands to reason one or two of my apps are crashing the thing.
I've got the Bell Sensation, too, and I'd have to say it's crashed about the same amount of times. Each time, I send the report to HTC. The app is called "Tell HTC", it comes up automatically in the notification bar.
One time it was the camera app that I was in when it restarted, another time I was viewing the calendar app. It's a phone that's only a few weeks old. Hopefully after the first OTA or two, the phone will be less buggy.
I came from a Motorola Atrix, and even after the updates, it would still periodically restart/crash. Boo.
This doesn't really help you, but just wanted to let you know it's not just your phone!
My phone has only the camera & screen issue, when battery is to low and I am capturing my sensation restarts. also sometimes I have some lines on screen. but my phone never crashed yet, I have it since 25 June...
Seems like it's mostly the T-Mobile and Bell variants that have the most issues.

[Q] Not Receiving Calls/SMS Bug Update

There are a couple threads on this subject but they are all little detail and dead. The links below describe in detail this bug. Is anyone else experiencing/fixed this issue? I am currently running a Tasker task to disable wifi when my screen goes off, which lets calls/sms in most of the time. Every now and then I have to make a call to force texts to come through still.

There seems to be a lot of people with the issue but nothing is coming of it.

Constant Notifications

Hey guys, hopefully this is an easy one for you:
I have a first generation Moto-G (NOT rooted). Ever since Lollipop was released I've been getting the notifications to upgrade. I don't want to upgrade, so I tap "No Thanks". No big deal to do that a dozen times a day I guess.
Here's the real problem. The sliding animation thing that happens when the notification pops up has started happening more and more often, almost every time WITHOUT the notification. This is happening so often I can barely use my phone now, like maybe 5-10 times a minute.
Does anybody know why this is happening, or how I can fix it?
Thank you kindly!

Android 7- trouble with receiving phone calls

I am new to xda, I hope I found the right place for this problem.
I have a phone which is running android 7, the phone is supposed to be a Samsung s8, but I bought it second hand and it seems to be a mix of many things
Anyway, the problem I am having is that for no apparent reason sometimes when a call is received the phone does show the incoming call and does not ring. The call appears only as a missed call.
The way to reset that works is to delete the cache of the phone app. But that works only for a few minutes and then the problem recurs
It doesn't seem to be consistent, however sometimes it seems like setting the phone to do not disturb or silent mode triggers this behavior, and then even after returning to normal mode, the calls do not appear.
Another thing this that it seems like in safe mode I do not have enough this issue
I am not %100 sure about that either
Any idea what setting could cause this problem?
Thamk you to all who have ny suggestions
