i upgraded to the leaked ICS rom on my ATT samsung galaxy note and even thoug i love it i have some issue with calls and the phone dialler in general.. i will try to outline them below. Does any one else have this issue and know of a fix?
1) when clicking on the phone icon, it takes like for ever to load the dialler (as long as 10-15 seconds)
2) lots of lag when clicking on "call log" or even dialing numbers
3) during calls i frequently have blank moments where both parties cant hear each other
4) call just disconnects for no aparent reason
5) if i want to end a call i keep clicking on the red "cancel" button with no luck.. the call just does not end and i see the timer incrementing
6) when #5 happens, everything hangs, there is a black screen then i get a message saying "Contacts" crashed
i have confirmed hat i dont have a signal issue i always check the signal when this happens and am at full bars.
I am Android 4.0.3
any suggestion would be greatly appreciated..
Did you clear the cache partition and dalvik cache when you flashed? Also fix permissions through cwm before you reboot. Thays been known to cause a lot of problems with the systems. Id try thatfirst and see if that clears it up!

thanks for your response.. no i did not do any of those things.. i just flashed right away..
what in your opinion should i do now? flash again? or can i avoid that somehow?
my phone is NOT rooted..
Ya can go into cwm and clear the cache partition then clesr dalvik cache without reflashing. Id do it like three times just to make sure the clearance took. Then before ya reboot fix permissions then reboot and hopefully everything is good. What ics rom are you using. Most if not all the custom roms are rooted.

A few days ago I flashed CM nightly 141 & found that the CRT-like screen off animation works. (It didn't work before). And I was like But yesterday I flashed nightly 149 & the screen off animation is gone. Yes, I've check the display setting & it's checked on.
It's too random. Normally, from what I have seen, "poking around" in recovery and bootloader mode (Enabling / disabling fastboot etc), or flashing additional stuff reactivates it. While for some, a simple reboot activates it, while for others, a wipe of the dalvik cache enables it.
Obviously, theres no logic to this, because, as I said, its too random. There's no way to guarantee it will work, yet. You can try "fiddling about", if it is so necessary to you.
For me it works with a simply restart!
Most of the time, it will work after wiping dalvik cache, but it's too random :-( I had to disable it to get my mentality back hehe

I couldn't agree with you more
It's not exactly the same thing but I found "Screen Off and Lock" on market to be usefull.
Hey ladies and gentlemen,
I am using stock ics rooted and am having sound issue. When I switch to silent mode everything goes silent as intended but when I switch back all sounds work minus text notifications. I usually have to restart phone to get it working. Any ideas? Thanks
Out of curiosity are you using a system notification tone or one that you downloaded? Does the vibration still work?
Yes. I am using pixie dust. And other programs like gmail and group me do not sound. It makes no sense. Thinking about going back to cm9 anyways.
Try wiping cache and dalvik cache. Also try fixing permissions

I have the same problem. I find a soft reset fixes the issue. Oh I am on stock ATT ics 4.0.3
Glad I am not the only one. Even soft tests aren't working anymore. I will wipe cache now and give status update.
you realize there is a separate setting in the messaging app for notification sounds I hope. I'm assuming you've already tried changing this.

Yes I do realize that. It works randomly. As of now sounds are back after wiping cache but I have not switched to silent mode yet. Will update once I switch to that mode and back to normal.
are you using a seperate launcher? if so its probably that needs update. i had same issue on go launcher but when i switched back to stock launcher the issue went away. wow i said launcher alot.
I was using stock tw launcher but just now switched to ported sgs3 launcher. Wiping the cache worked for a couple hours but back to the same problem.
You may have to wipe and start over to clear it up :-( I hate to say that, but sometimes it's the easiest fix. Orr....is there maybe a market app that could do what you want ? I know it sucks reinstalling everything when you've got a bunch of apps. Or try just wiping/system and flash over top of your current set up?

I have the same problem, reboot solves the problem only temporarily. I spoke with AT&T support and they had no record if this. If you Google this problem, you will see it is not only happening with AT&T, but with T Mobile Galaxy S 2 phones that have updated to ICS. I will have a conversation with Samsung this coming week and will post results of my conversation here.

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.

Anyone using CM10, does your phone ever experience any lockups/reboots during or after a phone call? There's been a few cases where my phone would reboot during a call, and fail to make any calls for a brief period of time after. I can make or pickup the calls, but I can't hear anything and the other end can't hear anything. Rebooting or powering off does not resolve the issue, and it somehow starts working again sometime after I give up with it. It's been getting more and more consistent with the latest updates, and happens on the stock kernel, h0tcakez, and KKO.
Just wondering if it's my phone or CM10
All the jelly bean roms do that to my phone. I think it may be lack of an official jb kernal. Might be wrong about that, but I think I read that somewhere.

phone lock up
I have epinter's 2012-10-11 ROM for the Atrix 4G and occasionally I will not be able from the contact list. But the direct phone dialer still works. Sometimes reboot fixes it; sometimes not.
I get the exact same problem, and it drives me nuts, every time its happened the only fix has been to completely wipe the phone (unroot, rerooot etc. etc.) Driving me completely nuts. Also, the issue is present in both CM9 and CM10 and seems to happen at random.

I had one reboot during a call but thats about it. I been running this rom since 12/27...u might want to use FJ's kernel. This is how I flash all roms and it seems to have less or non reboots on JB. After you have flash the rom and ur device boots up, I go back to recovery before setting up my phone and wipe cache and dalvik cache and fix permissions. It seems that by doing that before setting my device, . ...helps a lot. GL

Has anyone experienced random reboots on the latest firmware update from T-Mobile?
Don't know how to reproduce the problem to pinpoint what's causing the issue. This is the third time it has happened... Is doing a Master Reset the only option? (Wanted to mention I'm all stock, first phone where I don't see Root is necessary, IMO, just yet.)
Didn't see a need to update mine. Still on BH5 and things are working great.
I guess I would try clearing cache first, from the recovery menu. If that didn't solve the reboot problems ... Clear cache+factory reset but make sure you back up everything first. Full factory reset on the S5 wipes the internal SD card as well. Downloads, files, pictures, text messages, phone call log ... Will be all gone.

I don't understand. I try to wipe cache partition and it works on command but once I reboot the phone it says error and it just loads up the phone. What's up with that? Do I need to factory reset?
Some are saying that the volte is causing this. I have turned that off and havent seen a reboot since

That's weird because I've never had this issue until the most recent update. Sigh. This is annoying as hell. Can't even enjoy the phone stock.

Funny, I just checked my settings and I don't even have volte on my phone. There is no toggle for it so I'm assuming its non existent for my phone??
