Hi all, I'm currently in Mexico and I was keeping my phone in airplane mode to prevent international texts. To my surprise, my phone received a text a few minutes ago. I confirmed that it was still in airplane mode when the text came in. Then the text came in again. I took my phone out of airplane mode, and the text came in a 3rd time. This time it stopped repeating.
Has anyone faced something like this before?

Hi, Have had Galaxy S 2 for 5 weeks, it was working properly up until the screen failed last week, went off for official repair, came back fixed, all good I thought....But a New Issue Has Manifested
The methods of toggling through having sound on or in silent mode are giving false indications......
In phone options, which are entered by a long press on the power button, the first option is silent mode on / off, but the phone is doing the exact opposite to what it says! I have missed a couple of important calls because I checked the phone status this morning when I came out of a meeting, it said "Silent Mode On" So I hit it to activate Silent mode off, which it displayed, however, got to office and 2 calls had been missed, the phone was not ringing out at all...! (Even though it was displaying silent mode off) when I toggled bact to silent mode on, it would then ring???!???
I have soft reset, hard reset, and neither has made a difference. Now, do I send phone back again and be without it for 10-12 days, or is there a simple fix/issue I am missing here? If it was a Nokia, I would have re-installed the firmware as the next action, but cannot work out how to do this on a Samsung Galaxy S 2.
If I choose phone update in about phone, it tells me no new updates available.. There does not seem to be a re-install existing firmware route to take.
Please advise?
Thanks in anticipation;

factory restore reinstalls the existing firmware .

Hmm, well it cannot be that then, can it... Any ideas why phone is "Cross Wired" for want of a better explanation for the Silent On / Off reversal?

Guyz,
I am facing a strange problem with SXS. My SXS works normally during the day time or when its in use till night till i go to bed. After i went to bed and woke up in the morning if somebody tries to call me they get message that my phone is off, if they try to text me it doesn't come to me and shows in pending to sender. At the sametime it shows me good network and no errors on screen or for signal.
I have tested it myself for past two days when i wokeup and instead touching my SXS i tried calling from my different phone and i got message saying its Switched off. then if i try to send text or try to make call everything starts to work normal.
At night i am keeping data, wifi, bluetoot off and screen to min. Is anybody else saw this behavior or facing this strange issue. Any remedies you guyz can suggest.
Btw i am on .75 stock rom, unrooted. Please help!!!
Maybe an app you installed have timer or something....
Try factory reset.

I have Profile scheduler installed but even after immediate change in profile there is no change. I mean today only i have waited to see what happens when the profile change at say 9:00 am in morning but no difference still its saying switched off. And when i sent an sms to friend everything starts to work normal.
Only an app can do this.
You have to try factory reset first.

Hello XDA,
Third day with my GS3, and I've already noticed and had to face on what could be a hardware issue if no one else on here has experienced it.
So I went to bed at 2PM this afternoon, phone is running absolutely fine its at 62% battery. I woke up at 5:30PM and the battery was 59%. So I started browsing my phone, I already had some messages so I replied to them, then I went on Emgadget. I revieved a text and the phone froize up, it just does this really really long vibrate for about 6 seconds, no notification sound and then boom.. it all comes back, the notification appears in the bar but the phone still does not make a sound. Its not just messaging that causes this blip, if the phone is in this state receiving any notification including a call will freeze the phone up.
I've noticed that during the time the phone is doing this, it won't make sounds while you type on the keyboard. Everything, like system sounds, will just stand completely silent even after the phone has resumed functionality.
After around 5-10 minutes the phone will just seemingly return to normal behaviour, I could be in mid-text and suddenly the keyboard start making noise again. Please somebody really help me with this, I do hope its software.
Just to note, this is not the first time I've had this issue today. I've experienced it multiple times in the past three.

I had a firmware update the other day, nothing worked. Thinking of downloading the software from SamMobile and reflashing.
Twice today while on a calll the call just ended and i got a notification saying that the phone was in flight mode and to turn if off, WTF is this all about does anyone know i certainly didn't turn it on
Running CheckRom with Pronominal Kernel.
No one any idea about this?
Happened again earlier, how the **** can something like this be happening?
Hey guys. So I've been trying to figure this out for several weeks with no luck and I was hoping you could help me. I have a Verizon LG G3 on AT&T on 10b. I can connect to 4G LTE and Edge just fine. However, when I try to make a call or receive a call on LTE, the network vanishes instantly. I'm talking from 3-5 bars to no service in within 5 seconds of calling my phone or calling from it. I've tried flashing different modems and the problem still persists. I already tried flashing the stock (what I'm on now), factory resetting, clearing the cache, etc. and have not been able to fix it. Today I called AT&T tech support and after they re-registered my phone I was able to make one phone call before the problem reappeared. When I made the call, my LTE dropped but I stayed connected through 2G/3G/Edge not sure which one.
The only other time I've had it working properly is when I had Cyanogenmod installed. However, that led to another issue. With Cyanogenmod, my phone would crash within a few minutes of booting. Most of the time I couldn't even make it through the setup. To be more specific about the crash, my screen would freeze and become unresponsive for a dew seconds and would then turn off completely. The green LED would turn on and stay on. Every time this happened I would have to pull my battery. The only way to prevent the freezing was to turn on airplane mode. If I turned off data or had the phone SIM-less it would still freeze airplane mode was the only solution.
If anyone can help me with either of these issues I would be greatly appreciative. If you need any more information or want me to post logs just let me know and I'll happily do so.
Here's a quick recap incase you don't want to read through the walls of text.
VS985 10b on AT&T
EDGE works fine
On 4G LTE network disconnects when making or recieving call
Cyanogenmod fixes network issues but freezes when not in airplane mode

I think you are talking about making calls on Voice over LTE. I am not surprised Verizon rom does not quite support it. Maybe you can try this swap boot.img hack to install AT&T rom and see if it solves your problem?

Thanks for replying. That's my main theory too. However, according to my research, the VS985 didn't get VoLTE until the 12b update. I'll definitely try an AT&T ROM when I get the chance at the very least I'll probably learn something from it. Any chance there's an option to make LTE data only on this phone?
