[Q] My TBolt doesn't receive/send phonecalls. - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It'll receive/send texts perfectly fine (well, it'll give me an error but it still sends it).
It happens so often, it starts to get frustrating.
Does this happen to anyone, if it does, any help?
(If it helps, I'm running BAMF Sense 3.0 RC3).
I can't use the phone function most of the time. When this happens, I usually have to do a battery pull, or a soft reset. Usually when I do a data wipe, it fixes the problem.
But how can I stop this problem from happening and make my phone reliable again?

You never explained exactly what it is that's happening that is making your phone unusable. How does it not send/receive calls?

sorry for the clarity.
but basically when I receive calls, they go straight to voicemail.
when dialing an outgoing call, it won't ring and the phone will say "call was lost", even when I have full service.

Have you try on stock rom and does data work ?

I just wiped everything clean. Data works fine and I'm able to send texts (but I receive a warning) and receive them too. Phone calls don't work. Do you think its a problem with the phone itself?

mogul Version 3.35.651.2

I have a quick question. I have a hacked ROM currently on my mogul which allows me to get incoming calls while surfing the internet. Will the newest ROM that HTC released still allow this? I remember the original ROM that came with the phone would not allow incoming calls while surfing the internet. If anyone can answer, i would really appreciate it.
Thanks

All roms allow you to receive incoming calls while "surfing the internet". The phone however, will NOT allow you to use any data while on that call. So you can be on google.com and get a call just fine, but you can't load up xda while on that same call. The phone pauses the data, lets the call through, when the call ends, resumes data.
gcincotta, thanks alot for the quick reply...thats exactly what i needed to know.

Unless of course your using "WIFI" then your browsing is not affected while on the call.
similar question, but do you know what recieving incoming calls does to gps? does it close the connection?
anything similar to what it does with data?

Well I figured he was referring to EV-DO, Wi-Fi is different as it's not using the CDMA radio.

Again, the GPS has its own chipset on the MSM7500. It does not use the CDMA radio, so therefore it's unaffected by calls or data.

[Q] SMS doesn't always send ?

Ive noticed that when sending certain sms messages, the messages will keep spooling and not send unless I delete and resend it. Seems to happen at random times, even with no signal it should still send when it gets a signal right ? Using the Handcent SMS
Same thing happens to me.
I had the exact same issue. I stopped using Handcent and the issue went away. I've never had this issue on any of my last 5 android devices. Really frustrating since I have used handcent as long as I can remember.
+1 - Yep, me too! Even using GVoice + Sprint integration, too!
Also, if I restart my phone all the texts will magically send. Anyone else find this to be the case?
I also noticed that I can't get voice to text to work. I speak, select the line that reflects what I said....and then nothing. It doesn't paste it in. Any one else?

My speech to text didn't work when using swiftkey. I switched to stock keyboard. Speech to text is amazing

I'm having the same problem. texts i sent after and before the unsent ones send fine. using go SMS pro
Sent from my HTC EVO 4G LTE
i have this same issue with handcent as well
I used to always have issues with handcent. When I had the Hero none of the MMS would send. So since then I have been using Go SMS Pro.
I am using Go Sms and I have the same issue. It seems if I am receiving a text at the same time, mine won't send and I have to delete it and start over. Also, when I send an MMS, it will create drafts of the same thing that I have to remove. My voice to text on swiftkey won't work either. I will have to try it out on stock.

I was having the same problem and what I thought was happening was the phone was closing Handcent (multitasking issue) before the text sent. I don't currently have my EVO LTE to prove that this is the case.

It's all network improvements boys and girls. If you been experiencing dropped calls, network busy tones, missed, super late, or texts being rejected; its due to nv work.

How can you be so sure? I started experiencing this the day I got this phone.
I have the same issues. Unfortunately, the only time I actually get text on time and/or send text reliably is when I use Google voice. I hate Google voices SMS setup, its ugly, and you can't send attachments. Its a shame we have this very cool phone, that can't do the basic cell phone operations. However, I do agree that this issue could very well be a Sprint signal issue and not the fault of HTC.
I'd also like to add, this is my second EVOLTE and both had this issue. Also both phones were and is having problems receiving calls. My missed calls don't even register, so once again, I have to rely on Google voice to let me know I missed a call via email, even after my phone never rang.

I can 100% guarantee you that this is not the reason for this btw....it may be in some places the reason but it is NOT the main reason this is happening...
I know for a FACT there has been 0 work on the towers in my area and seen this same thing happen...
Ok, so for me this is only an issue with third party messaging apps.
I have been using the stock app now and haven't had the issue once.
Go back to Handcent sms, boom! issues again.

I have the same issue. I had the same issue briefly a few weeks ago; however, now it's happening only on Sprint's network. If I check "Roam Only" on Meanrom I'm able to place calls, and send/receive text messages just fine. It started happening again when I used the LazyPanda s-off. I asked Sprint to do an HLR reset, and I still have the same problem. I've updated the profile 7 times now.

not receiving text

Im having a problem I can send text and they receive it but I do not receive any replys. I do not receive any text messages at all. I am using the stock app. I tryed using handsent and still nothing. Any suggestions? Thanks
Is it just to one person or all?
And I'm sure you've tried a restart / shutdown battery pull right?
Have you deleted anything from titanium?
Can you make/recieve phone calls ?
Might be a Verizon reset. I've seen messages get caught up in the que and they do whatever they do and I get flooded. ← my money is on this.
Im not receive any text but they do receiving mine. I did no a restart and a battery pull still nothing. I do not have titanium installed. I can make and receive calls. Is there a way to reinstall the message app? Thanks
No. Just call good ole 611 and tell em your texts aren't coming through.
Maybe try pulling the Sim card out for a couple minutes then putting it back in...idk if it'll help but its worth a shot. (Turn off phone before hand)
It seems that im getting text from everyone except from iphone users. My wife has the iphone 4 and I do not receive her messages but she does get mine.

Did u have an iPhone prior to this? And did you have imessage turned on? If so you need to disable / delete or whatever you want to call it your "@me.com"account. When I got my s3 it did this to me and the only thing I could think of was imessage...

[Q] SGP321 (LTE) Incoming GSM calls...

Hi All
From what I understand, the Xperia Tablet Z 4G isn't meant to be able to make and/or receive GSM calls. I came from a Samsung P6800 that was able to make and receive GSM calls so I have a SIM that is attached to a voice and data plan. I'm now using that same SIM in the XZT.
Earlier this afternoon, I turned on my tablet and saw what looked like a missed call screen that flashed by and disappeared. There was no notification of a missed call. I remember the screen had light colours - like light green and blue and yellow (if my memory serves me right).
Tonight I actually received a GSM call. I didnt get to answer it in time (well, let's say that when I got to the tablet, I stood there looking at it and wondering what was going on and the call stopped!).The screen that came up is what I described above. It had an icon of a phone with a circle around it in the middle of the screen. I'm guessing that to answer the call, I would've had to have put my finger on the icon and drag it out to a side.
I tried calling my tablet again with my normal phone to replicate it and maybe try get a screenshot, but I can't seem to get through on the number.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there software on the phone that can make and receive phone calls?
Edit: I should add that I'm on 4.2.2... and Build number is 10.3.1.A.0.244.
I had hoped I could use it as a huge phone, but nope.
I was told the hardware wasn't there.
But if you truly have had an incoming call, then there might be hope.
Right now I'm using Skype and the tablet redirect calls to my Skype-number.
There is..
I use viber a lot and everytime i recieve a call there is a phone with a circle and a wave on it and i just drag the phone to the right to answer it.

Yeh, I thought that it could be Skype or Viber or one of them chat apps, but I wasn't signed into any of those at the time. I'd only had the tab for a couple of days and was still in the process of installing apps.
It hasn't happened since then.. but i'll keep a lookout for it and see if it happens again.
How about Google Voice? If you have it set up on your account you might be getting a call to that number. Try calling it.

Unable to receive calls

Strange issue, I could send/receive text messages, and I could also make calls, but when trying to call my phone from another phone or if anyone else called me it would just ring like normal and go to voicemail, but my phone wouldn't ring or indicate that I had a call / missed call. This was fixed after a reboot but has anyone else had this issue?

I have the same issue I tried a reboot but the problem keeps coming back did that fix it permanently for you? Sometimes calls come in other times it just shows up as a voicemail.

I haven't had the issue since, but then again I wouldn't know unless someone texts me that they've been trying to call (I don't monitor my voicemail that closely...probably should though).
I've seen the exact same issue as well. I won't even get the call but the voice mail will show up if the caller left a message. Hopefully this is just a bad connection to the cell towers at the time the call was trying to get through and not some other issue.

Hi coming from the M8 forums and checking things out, and I had this issue and it was due to the tower being worked on in my area. I didn't have service for an entire month at my office or apt, which are less than a mile apart. Now I have poor data service but i can receive calls. You might want to contact Sprint and let them know ASAP
I cant receive calls but i can do outgoing and sms to others weird using international unlock lg g3 sprint
Same here...maybe 2 out 10 test calls I tried went through. I called sprint and they instructed me to re-provision the device using some ##7..something..something## dialer codes. My phone magically receives calls, but I have a feeling their re-provision crap didn't do anything to fix, it was just the re-boot part that "temporarily" fixed the incoming call problem.
