Hi all, anybody else notices this?
Since the December 5 update I don't seem to be able to pick up when I'm called. There's no dialer / phone (image) popping up to pick up the phone. I have to call back people instead. Total bummer, very inconvenient.
Any suggestions other than installing another dialer of course (although, if you have a great tip...) appreciated!
Not having that issue
Wiped cache and data to be sure. But happened again
For me dialer is working fine but having issue in whatsapp call notification. Phone just rings and vibrates without any information. When whatsapp os opnened the it will show the call on top bar.
Update: my issue is resolved by installing a newer version which is not available in play store currently.

Hi guys.
November 28 I have a problem with the notifications of Hangouts and Facebook Messenger. If the message comes on the screen turned off it does not notice. It was only when I turn the screen it appears notification. I checked everything, from programs, modifying the change ROM with another version of Android and the kernel. During testing, it does not turn the settings, do not sync anything but I installed hangouts. Also format the memory card. I do not know what to do. I did not change the radio, I do not know what is.
Thanks for any advice.
Felt that no one knows the cause. Strange problem...
Maybe someone is interested. I found this:
[APP][2.2+][ROOT][FREE][12-SEP-2013] Push Notifications Fixer v4.1
Google Talk disconnecting repeatedly, also affecting push notifications
I will check. Strange that only me that problem exists.
No change. Push Notification with Hangouts and Facebook Messenger comes along with notification of new mail with Gmail (including notification push). I do not know what else to do...
Be sure you're not the only one.
I'm struggling with the exact same problem on my HTC One XL for mothes.
Nothing helps.
I'm mad by now...
So do I. So far I have not found this method, and lost a substantial functionality.
I tried to contact Google several times, but no response. Waiting for service updates to version 4.1.31 google, as nothing will change that sell Sensation...
Problem solved, it turned out that I had no Z710 Sensation, only Sensation 4G. I do not know what exactly is different except that 4G was available in T-Mobile.
Can anyone help me figure out why Google Messenger is showing all my contacts as Unknown Sender. Everything works fine if I use Textra or the native sms app. I'm using an Honor 8.
The exact same thing just started happening to me with my Honor 8. I don't know what caused it. I'm on the 7.0 EMUI 5.0 Official build, and it just started happening last night

I tried reinstalling it but it still persists.
It also stopped working for me with the update to 7.0. Extremely annoying considering its my go to SMS app and I can't stand the stock one :/ Considering a factory reset...Unless anyone knows of a fix. I've played around with every permissions setting and have zero luck thus far.
I've had this happen to me too. It's very frustrating. I'm considering a factory reset, but would be even angrier if that doesn't fix the problems. In addition to every conversation switching from "Unknown Caller" is that the keyboard or reply option is completely gone. I had to switch back to the native app.
Other issues I have with EMUI are that Google Camera doesn't work, although I heard that Google is only allowing that to be installed on Nexus devices. It doesn't show up in a Playstore search anymore. Attempts to side load it have failed.
Another issue I have is that the Email app won't dismiss the unread count bubble all the time. It seems to be intermittent. A reboot or several hours clears this issue up for awhile.
(Sorry for multiple bug reports in this thread, but Google Messenger not working is really bothering me most.)
When I go to make a phone call with the Galaxy S8+, the contacts part of the app runs fine, I can select a contact and then click call.
But once the call starts I get the message 'Phone has stopped' & 'Phone keeps stopping', and there is no way for me to end the call...
I have tried booting into safe mode and making a call, but I get the same issue...
Is anyone else experiencing this?
*FIXED*
Uninstall the updates for the package 'com.samsung.android.incallui'.

That sounds strange. Never encountered such a behavior on my S8+

What version of the phone app are you using?
Do mention other details as well like Exynos or SD, and whether it's a WiFi call, VoLTE or just an ordinary phone call.
I had the same issue a couple weeks after updating the phone or contacts app with an apk file, cant remember which one it was.
Stranger thing was that when I wanted to make a call it actually did make the call while the popup was there that phone app was closed.
As I was not able to uninstall the update I did a factory reset of my S8+. Same issue was there after the reset, I ended up doing a clean flash with odin. Everything is fine now.

That may have been what has happened to me, as I updated the phone/contacts apk's a few weeks back...
Thanks guys!
I'm guessing that I am going to need to find the default apk and restore it (com.android.phone)
*UPDATE/FIXED*
Just in case this affects anyone in the future.
I fixed it by using 'Package disabler pro' to uninstall the updates for the package 'com.samsung.android.incallui'.
I figured it out by monitoring the logcat (to monitor background errors from the developer tools), and I spotted that the error was coming from this package, so after removing all updates for it, now all works fine again.
I hope that this will save anyone from having to re-flash in the future!
I just used PDP to uninstall it as I find that tool to be quite effective at showing all info needed about the package before making any changes, but I'm sure that you can remove the updates with any other app!
@thuglife:
You may want to take note just in case it happens again in the future!
My Pixel suddenly stopped being able to make and receive phone calls a few days ago. The Phone app is extremely sluggish trying to make a call, will usually finally "connect" and look like the call is open, but I hear nothing but silence on the other side, and the other person can't hear me. It's slow to try and hang up, too. I see calls coming in, and can try and answer, but with the same result. Missed calls are registered. Voicemail also does not work. I can see there is a message, but can't play it.
Running 8.1 with February 5 security patch. Carrier is Verizon. I've gone in the store, and they switched out the SIM card. I've also tried a hard factory reset, all with no difference to the problem. The phone is over a year old, so I think a replacement is not possible...
If anyone can help me or has any ideas, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
It's a hardware problem, Google is aware of the problem, they should replace your device. Contact Google, even if you are out of warranty they will replace the device for you!
OK WORKAROUND FOR ANSWERING CALLS UPDATE:
Found this floating on some other forum, not sure where after this mad dash of a search I did this morning, but original credit to them...
When you receive a call and the phone is active and unlocked, press the power button to lock the phone and bring up the blue call management screen. Now you can swipe to answer.
This seems to work for more than one test call as I've tried this multiple times in a row.
NO REAL WORKAROUND FOR MAKING CALLS YET (outside of airplane mode toggle, or using Google voice/hangouts to place calls).
GOOGLE SUPPOPRT - THIS IS CLEARLY A SOFTWARE ISSUE, not a 3rd party app issue either since the problem goes away for answering calls when you press the lock screen or toggle airplane mode for placing calls. Please STOP ASKING CUSTOMERS TO invest hours of time (or money) FACTORY RESETTING PHONES, or REPLACING/BUYING NEW PHONES.
MY HUNCH, is there is some core google service that isn't being used in SAFE MODE, but starts being used on NORMAL BOOT that is causing all these issue. I really DOUBT its a 3rd party app.
Thanks for your replies. I've contacted Google, and they didn't seem to think it was justification for replacing the phone out of warranty. They said I could either take it to a repair place to fix it or trade it in for the new Pixel 2 and get some money for it.
The workaround for answering calls works to connect the call and start the timer, but I still can't hear the caller and they can't hear me...
I still after much troubleshooting have found no way in which calls are functional. In addition to the attempts made above, I've since tried to uninstall and reinstall the phone app, and also to install a different phone app. No change to the problem. Even more curious, the problem still persists in Safe Mode.
If anyone has any more ideas, I'm all ears! Thanks!
Hello,
I am having a problem with my phone which is driving me up the wall. I think it's an issue with the version of Android rather than some physical issue with the phone.
I'm finding I'm not getting my notifications in a timely manner. For example, someone could send me a message on Whatsapp and I don't get a notification until 10 hours later (no exaggeration) or I get a two notifications from eBay saying a item is about to end and the other that I've missed it. It's making it difficult to enjoy using the phone.
I've tried disabling power optimization and allowing background data but to no avail. I've also factory reset my phone which seems to make no difference. Can anyone make a suggestion on how to resolve this?
Nick
Try to reset your phone from factory
Ensure the apps are not optimized as it seems like these are apps that require an internet connection.

Any ideas guys if this will be solved soon.?
I went back to the seller and received another U11 Plus and same behaviour.
Phone calls are working as expected , whatsapp working , only email notification are not working and this is a real problem for me.
Any suggestions ?
Thank you,
George.
