Im not sure why its doing this, but im on BAMF2.0 Remix, and i randomly just stop getting text messages. i have to pull the battery to receive them again, im in a 3g area with good signal.. is anyone else having this problem or is there a fix for it other than pulling battery?
if not i dont believe i had this issue with cm7.. dont exactly want to go back being i like BAMF..
Thanks!
For the first time since I had this phone I am having the same problem. Did you find a fix? What kernel were you using?
I pulled my battery and I'm still not getting SMS. $&@!

For most of last night from 9pm to about 2am I could not receive a text message no matter which phone sent me a text. Of course, I got several messages at 2am (that had been sent earlier that night) waking me up from sleep. I was able to send SMS but not receive. I did everything - battery pull, uninstall GoSMS and use stock messaging app (clearing the cache), cleared davlik cache and rom cache, lol... I tried everything.
Apparently this has happened to quite a few other people. I guess it just goes away after time? I am also guessing since none of my efforts fixed the problem that it is related to the Verizon network? Google: Thunderbolt not receiving texts.
None of the SMS I sent myself from my prepaid phone, from family members, friend, gf, or google voice made it to my phone last night.
I find it really upsetting that I pay $90+/month for this device and I can't even get SMS. Sure this is the only time that I know this happened, but .... lol. If could have happened before without me knowing it.
Low voltage kernel settings wouldn't cause this, would it?
Shesh.
Anyone else have this problem? I don't get calls from certain people. Sometimes I don't get sms that they send. My gf can't get a hold of me by calling and sometimes our sms don't arrive at the other end. We're both on verizon, she has a feature phone. I'm using a gingerbread rom now, but this problem happened with someone else on a different rom I was using months ago. That time too the other person was on verizon with a feature phone. I'm going to wipe and install Ivan's eris official to troubleshoot, the next step is to try and get verizon involved.
Sounds like the issues I had when my apn was "lost". Search for the "apn fix", it's in a ton of threads since most cm roms have had the issue.
Wrong forum BTW

could be that your phone is stuck in low memory state, try deleting all the apps you don't use, and boot into recovery and wiping dalvic cashe, reboot, might want to look into cashe2cashe

This happened between me and my wife, My daughter had placed me in my wifes blacklist, you might want to check just in case.
thanks for all the replies!
ianoob- i will try this, thanks for the info! i found .mak's apn fix here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684856
rigbyrobot- hmm... i keep my installs pretty lean, putting as many apps on the sd as possible.
Sparticusx- i considered that, but it does not explain the intermittent missing sms.
update: flashed ivan's eris official, gf's call went right through. next i flashed Ginn Tazz followed by gapps and .mak's apn fix and all seems well. thanks again!
I've been having this problem for quite a while now. Halfway through a call, it disconnects, and I can't end the call, I'll hit the home button, and have to roll down notification screen, and end it from there. After that if I try to make a call, it just gives the error "call not sent". And I can't receive calls too. Only way to get it to work again, is by rebooting.
I've tried diff roms, flash to stock, wipe, etc problem still there.
I'm now on superatmos 3.0 with galaxy RC4.1.
Its a long shot but try taking out sim card or try a different sim.

if you on i9100 first using cwm wipe everything including system partition also boot if you have that option.
than flash stock ROM via Odin

I'd try the sim change definitely. it's worth trying if only because sometimes its the obvious things that are the problem. Let us know how you get on

But why does it happen only sometimes when on a call? Data network never has issues.

Hi ad_ek,
I am experiencing identical problems in my Samsung Galaxy R (GT I9103) which I bought 15 months ago.
I am experiencing this problem since last couple of weeks.
Please do update me if you get a fix on this.

Same issue in Sgs2GT9100G 4.1.2
I also face this issue of "call not sent" in my stock SGS2 Gt9100G 4.1.2, this happens infrequently, have changed SIMS, cleared cache, cleared all data before flashing but not luck, is is got to do something with memory full?
I have a similar issue for about 2 months on the SGS2. This is how it goes:
I first had CyanogenMod 10.1 with no problems at all until i installed total recall for the s2 (for legal purposes). Bad luck with that because after i installed it the phone didn't have any sound at all (music, calls, microphone, headset). I didn't have a backup so i had to reflash CM 10.1. Ok, for a while until i got reports that i don't receive phone calls, i was told that my phone was closed (even though it wasn't). Luckily i have a second phone. So, i restarted the phone, and it got back to normal. Next day, similar issue, and so on for a week until i decided to change the baseband. Did that, worked like a charm for a week and then it got back to not receiving phone calls. Decided to change to AOKP (06.15 - i later updated to 06.30 but had to downgrade to 06.15 again because android keyboard kept giving errors). No problems for a week, but finally the problem came back and persisted. Changed about 3 or 4 basebands with no luck. I sometimes check if i can send or receive calls with my other phone, and if i don't, i restart the phone and comes back to normal for a few hours or a day or two. Signal bars are full even when it doesn't work.
I got in huge trouble with this problem and i would really like a suggestion. Please help...

Same issue here. Gotta change my SII, not buying a SAMSUNG phone any more.
Tried EVERYTHING and nothing works. I am pissed off. Camera also gives me problems...
EDIT: FINALLY WORKING, YAY!
After having wiped, rewiped, changed ROM, changed modem... Another ROM switch+EFS restore (altough my IMEI was correct) calls are working again.

This fixed the issue for me.
Thanks very much!
I'm having a similar issue. Each time I go to make a phone call, It gives me the CALL NOT SENT error on the first try. Then I try a second time and it goes through just fine. I've contacted TMO support and here is what they said after troubleshooting: "Alright. Upon checking here, I can see that we already exhausted all our basic troubleshooting on your phone, and I do apologize for the inconvenience. Please do contact out Technical Care at 1-800-937-8997 or 611 on your phone."
I'm wondering if any of you have a suggestion other than new sim card or factory reset. I'm going to definitely stop by a TMO store to ask them about the issue, but I figured I'd try here before going out there.
Here's a video to show you what happens: go to my youtube channel to view the call not sent error. My User account is DeSaaD37. This forum wont allow me to post the link to the video since I haven't posted ten posts yet. So stupid!
Solution
What seems to be happening is the WiFi calling bake in is struggling to activate properly against the chipset structure of Samsung. I watched error codes pop up when the phone first wakes up. Calling is not available right away. When Wifi calling is turned off completely this issue goes away. Not sure what needs to be done to fix the problem so you can leave this on.
-- I have done this now on several samsung phones and has worked on each one (all tmobile)
Ok, so I've been having some super odd problems with my GS3 that I've sort of narrowed down.
When plugging into a PC (to charge or copy files) I'll lose any and all sound, even after a reboot. Usually a power off/on will fix it, or I might have to pull the battery.
Also, sometimes it will start to freeze up. It will be butter smooth for a few seconds, then freeze for 3-5 seconds. Usually recording all of my touches, and then quickly doing them all when it un-freezes. This I usually can NOT get to stop without pulling the battery, and even then it might do it again. Sometimes after I unplug from the PC, and I get a notification for a text, it won't play the sound, and sit there and vibrate continuous for 5-10 seconds. Then the freezing will start.
The freezing comes and goes, but usually gets started shortly after I've been plugged into the PC. I've also seen the MTP app start, and freeze.
It did this stock. Now I've completely wiped and flashed Omega, and a Abyss kernel. Its still doing it. The sound always goes out, but the freezing seems to have subsided a bit. I did wipe my app backups, do new ones, and restore those.
Does this sound like a hardware issue, or software? I can't find ANY apps that are locking up/sucking up CPU time. What app could be causing something like this? Apex? Liteflow? I am having problems with Apex, where a few times a day when going back to the home screen it will stop working, and show a black screen till it loads. Its not the phone itself, notification bar still works and everything else works, but Apex just blacks out until reloading.
I did root when I got the phone, and restored my apps (apps ONLY) from a backup made with my HTC One X. I'm still using those apps/app data.
One more thing, I can safely say I only started having issue after I flashed my first .zip in recovery. It was for the Camera mod, someone had made a flashable .zip file. After I flashed that, the phone went crazy. No sound, locking up, nothing worked, and it took several reboots for it to settle down and start working.
None of this happens when plugging into power only, just a PC.
Ideas?
EDIT:
Ok, I'm pretty certain this problem is started by a notification. It only seems to start happening if I get a notification, and it will do the crazy 10 second vibration, followed by no sound, and freezing.
Also even when its working normally, everytime I get a notification I have odd problems. Maybe a stutter, sometimes the keyboard closes, etc.
Today it started shutting off by itself.
EDIT 2:
I have a new phone on the way from Negri. I'm returning this one to let them deal with the RMA to Samsung.
Try resetting your phone and then try again.
Ok, I've removed Apex for the time being, no different. Also, its doing it now without having plugged it into USB, so thats not it. Doing it right now actually. No sound, and freezing. I noticed it exactly happend while I was in the camera app, and a notification came through.
I don't understand, I wiped when I installed Omega??
EDIT: And just sitting there for awhile, its fine again. Didn't restart it at all, just let it sit for a few minutes.
And now, I'm using the camera again and it happened. Can this have something to do with the camera mod?
I'm going to subscribe to this thread. I'm also experiencing the same problems as you, because of this I'm going to re-flash Stock Firmware and see if the problem persists, because it could be due to a bad flash of the Software.
My thread can be found here on XDA. Please alert me if you find a fix, will do the same for you

Yeah your having the EXACT same issue. Mine won't always do the 6 second vibration for a text though. (has done it a few times)
What worries me is that I *have* wiped, and reflashed a ROM. So any software problem should be gone.
I'm going to do a hard reset tonight (wipe everything) and reflash the latest Omega. I'm not going to restore my TB backup either. We'll see what happens.

How do you do a hard reset? I have yet to flash my firmware yet, it still has 17 minutes on the download ticker, so I might do a hard reset and then install the firmware like yourself.
Also, I've noticed that due to this issue, I don't always receive notification sounds when the screen is off. Interestingly mine does not seem to be affected on USB, I've never had a problem with that and have synced with Kies many times. What was your battery level when this problem occurred?

Well today it started happening while using the camera and a notification came through. It hasn't been plugged into USB at all. Its happened at all different battery levels.
I think I'm going to download and flash a stock firmware and try that for awhile. I'll hard reset first.

Alright tell me how it goes. Mine has been going on for a few days now, however it only started happening today after the battery got below 50% so I thought maybe it was associated with that.
Thanks for the link!
Ok here is what I did:
Hard reset using the method listed above
Flashed the latest firmware w/Odin - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
Hard reset again
Enter my Gmail account, *no* apps restored
Lets see what happens. I'm *not* going to do a restore w/Titanium backup until I'm satisfied its fixed. (And then I will probably just unlock/flash recovery, and flash the latest Omega ROM)

I did the exact same process, and I'm not going to be backing up at all! Thought I had broken my phone at first as it wouldn't pick up any reception, turns out the mast down the road had rebooted
Must say, seems snappier already, probably a placebo effect though
Ok, I've used the camera, plugged it into the PC... done some other stuff. I'll use it for awhile tonight and get some notifications and see what happens.
So far so good.

My phone is definitely much faster, even the home screen isn't drawing my widgets every single time I go to it! My theory is it was just a bad factory flash, the first time I flashed back with Odin my Messages app kept force closing so I glad to re-flash again. I'll keep you posted if problems crop up again.

Everything was great, so I decided to root and do a TB restore. Things were still perfectly smooth, then I got a text and had the 6 second vibration, and lost sound. Had to restart. Never froze though.
Awesome.
EDIT:
Ok, after the reboot, the sound worked one time for the unlock screen, then went back out. And the phone froze.

Hmm, I've glad several notifications and haven't put my phone done since the re-flash and I've had absolutely no problems whatsoever. All I can suggest is that possibly the restore that you did has installed the bad files? I did a bit of research and apparently Odin will not wipe old files off your phone that it doesn't need to, but a factory restore will.. guess this fits in with the problem you have had if it was a bad factory flash that was causing this problem in the first place.

My TB restore is not a factory restore, all its doing is restoring apps+data. No system data at all.
The phone right now has no sound, and is pretty much unusable.

My bad, getting Nandroid and TB back ups mixed up! I don't really know what to suggest now, apart from the fact that I would imagine its directly linked to the restore you've done, as it was only after you did this the problems persisted and that back up comes from a system that also had that problem? I fixed the sound by removing my battery, or sometimes it worked by putting it on charge. Either way, maybe its best to just start again for you rather than installing a back up?

Faced a problem like that, but it hasn't happened to me for some weeks. It happened to me with cm9. Sliding to receive calls just didn't work sometimes, and the only option that worked was rejecting them. I remember that one time or two it even rebooted when I tried to answer. But now it doesn't happen to me. If you have a custom ROM, first of all make a backup and make sure it has no problem. Now, try to wipe data and cache and format system from the recovery, and then flash the newest version of the ROM again, if it doesn't require flashing on a previous specific build. But if it's not a custom ROM, I don't know what to do.
When you format system, careful not to format SDcard! Once I had wanted to format the System but I was distracted so I chose format SDcard. That was awful! I couldn't stop it!
Have a nice day!
Well i am on stock os only.
