[Q] Problem switching calls | ICS | F1 GalaxyNexus ROM - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Galaxy S2
F1 GalaxyNexus ROM, Build 5.
I'm having a problem switching calls. When the second call comes in I'm notified of it and swipe right to answer it but I get an error, "unable to switch calls". I had the same problem in Build 1 so updated to Build 5 today but I still get the same error when I try to switch to the second call.
I've checked that call waiting is enabled, and it is.
I've turned it off and rebooted the phone but strangely still get notified of the second call.
I've re-enabled call waiting and rebooted but still get the same error as before "unable to swich calls".
I'm on Vodafone pay as you go, Freedom Freebie.
Any ideas please? I'm a noob so can't post on the Faryaab's development thread
Thanks
Greg

I probably should of said....
The Baseband version is I9100XXLPS.
If the second caller hangs up I am able to get back to the first caller.
If I can get the first caller to hang up then I can switch to the second caller.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
Greg

Just bumping my own thread again.
Wondering if anyone can advise if they have call waiting enabled and can switch calls and what ROM you're running?
Any help would be really appreciated

Hi Sun90,
Sorry about the bump, will edit my OP if I need to in the future.
In Titanium I did a 'wipe data' for 'Phone 4.0.4-eng', shutdown, pulled the battery and rebooted. No luck unfortunately
I was wondering if this could be related to the baseband? I'm running I9100XXLPS on Vodafone UK. What are you running?
I might have to check out the ROM you're running! I really like this ROM but not being able to switch calls is such a pain.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers

Hi Sun90,
Just tried as you said but the only option was to clear data, which I did. I also cleared the defaults (not sure what that'll do!), switched off, pulled battery but still get the same error, unable to switch calls.
I suppose it must be the ROM
Thanks anyway.

just to ensure its a problem with the present version of F1 rom ur using, i would suggest u to try an older or a newer version of that rom and see, also alternatively check with some other rom like 'Slim ICS' for instance and see if the issue persists

I worked out what the defaults is all about, it's cause I've got calls set to default to the phone rather than Skype.
I've removed Skype just in case it was causing the issue but it wasn't.
Any other ideas please?
Cheers

Hi Everyone,
Just a quick update to say that Vodafone UK advised me that call waiting / switching doesn't work when you are on pay as you go
I had previously posted in the Vodafone forum and been advised to try a wipe and spoken to tech support who advised that it should work, luckily for me I spoke to someone today that knew what they were talking about!
Thanks for your help.
Cheers

It sounds like you flashed a GT9100 ROM on an AT&T Galaxy S 2 (i777). If this is the case, you can go to the AT&T SGS2 forum and download the Hellraiser mod and the haptic feedback home button fix. Then boot into recovery and flash hellraiser first, then haptic fix, then reboot your device and all should be well. If you're on a GT9100, you probably have a bad install. Try performing a full wipe (data wipe, cache wipe, dalvik wipe) then re-flash the ROM again. That should take care of things. Good luck.

[Q] Vibrate function doesn't work anymore, hardware issue

My SGS2 stopped vibrating. Tried flashing, un-rooting, restoring stock and factory settings. None of these worked.
I am inclined to think that it is a hardware problem.
Has anyone else been dealing with issue? I read some posts on XDA regarding this matter but they were software related as opposed to hardware. Can anyone post instructions on how to fix it or provide any solutions for this issue?
If its hardware, why not flash stock, remove binary flash count with USB jig, and return for warranty?

Cannot get jig in Palestine. Bought the phone from the UK. Sending it back will be problematic. I will look for a repair shop.
Thanks for the quick reply
That's a "bummer" (bad luck). You could make a jig, but as you said that it would be problematic to return. Hope you can sort it easily. Sorry, can't think of anything of use right now.

hey there,
i got the same problem. no more vibrating at all. not with calls or notifications and not as haptic feedback. it started today (was still working in the morning), though i did not drop the phone or anything.
i am still hoping too find that it's a sw-problem. but all potential solutions i find do not help. so i guess i have to contact samsung.
but before i do that i have to get rid of all "hacking".
could you plz tell me what i have to do?
i have now cm9 20120402 nightly.
but i still have a cwm-recovery-backup of the original touchwiz (gingerbread).
-so first i make a backup of my current rom via cwm and of all my apps via titanium and store everything on my pc.
-i flash my touchwiz-backup
-i get one of those: http://www.amazon.de/s/ref=nb_sb_no...ld-keywords=Samsung+Galaxy+S2+USB+Jig&x=0&y=0 , plug it in, wait til its done and remove it again.
after that, samsung will never know i "messed" with the phone??
or do i have to consider/do something else?
tyvm!!

I have the same issue.
When I was on my stock 2.3.5, I found a workaround:
- go into test mode (dial *#0*#)
- find the vibrate button, when you press it, it shouldn't work like you expect
- go back
- plug in your headphones and push the cable a bit to the left
- test vibrate again - this time it should work
- pull the cable out while vibrating, still pushed to the left, vibrations should stay on
I know it sounds crazy but it seems the hardware part that controls the vibrations is near to the jack port - excessive use of headphones, like it was case, must have damaged it somehow.
However, now I'm on CM9, so no test mode for me, I'm achieving the same effect by bashing the back button, so I get semi-constant vibration. I know, It's ridiculous.
Have the same problem here, I think it's software related because the shut down vibration stopped working when I flashed CM9 ICS, I can't remember if it was working anywhere else though. But now I'm back to 2.3.5 and it's not working at all. Did a Factory Reset, Cleaned Cache before and after the flash. Also used the Jig to reset my counter. Any clues?
I am experiencing the same issue.
Yesterday, I downgraded from 4.0.3 back to 2.3.5 as I was having a lot of problems with ICS. Now, my phone works fine again except for the fact that it does not vibrate anymore. (Which it did fine in 4.0.3 and before in 2.3.5)
I tried the trick Lechium06 mentioned in this thread but that did not work for me.
Anyone else having this issue? More important, anyone have a solution???

I saw something similar on CM9 thread, they said it could be a "bad flash", not a corrupted rom but the lack of proper cleanup before and after the flash. But I cleaned up everything before and after and I don't like reconfiguring the whole phone again for nothing.
it happend again.
dont recall what i did or if i did something last time at all. but it worked for over a year now. and now, my sgs2 doesnt vibrate at all, i tried all possible settings, tested with z-device and rebooted. nothing.
apprechiate any hint!
thx!!

AW: [Q] Vibrate function doesn't work anymore, hardware issue
since i had that before, i ruled out a hardware issue. it happend when i played with the system settings. but as i sayed, i tried to reverse everything i did. now after i updated to 0206 and wiped cache and dalvik, still no vibration.
is there anything i could have missed?
is there a possibility to reset all settings to default without deleting all my data?
thx,

I assume since your posting in xda developers that you are rooted?
If so, just back up data with titanium backup app and factory reset, setup system and then restore USER apps and data only.

Did you install another rom?
My vibration for example didn't work with some cm10.1 nightlies
it started in cm10.1 20130203. then i tried wipe cache and dalvik. nothing. then i updated to 0206 (wiped cache and dalvik again) > still nothing. went to bed. got up. everything ok! its vibration again! i am 100% sure, it did not work, when i left it on my desk last night. this morning, i checked for missed calls and it took a moment until i realized: i got haptik feedback back on patternunlock and keystrokes! checked ringtone-vibration: fine as well!
dont ask me how! would still like to know for myself.
thx,
kws
AW: [Q] Vibrate function doesn't work anymore, hardware issue
call me stupid!
suddenly this evening my phone stopped vibrating again. then i realized: quiet hours! i turned off haptik feedback at night.
could slap myself. at least ill find this thread again, next time i screw it again....

SGS3 problem with losing all sounds

Hello,
I bought recently the new SGS3 and after a week or two of using I noticed the phone loses all the sounds despite all of them are turned on and not being on minimum. After a while the sounds get back and everything works fine. At first I thought it might be from the settings because I set up silent mode for all notifications and I thought it may turn all the sounds off, despite it normally shouldn't. After playing for a while with the phone I realized the issue appears randomly without any reasons while I was playing game or simply navigating through the phone. If anyone had experienced the same issue or have an idea what could be the problem (software, hardware, settings, OS, etc) or how it can be solved, please respond. Any answer is appreciated as the problem is quite annoying as I'm missing calls because of it.
Thank you.
Phone details:
Samsung Galaxy S III
Android version - 4.0.4
Baseband version - I9300BOLF1
Kernel version - 3.0.15-782020
Build number - IMM76D.I9300XXBLFB
P.S. Restart of the phone doesn't help as I already tried it. The issues is related to all the sounds not to the vibration, the last works fine.
Backup data and factory reset.

Thank you for your advise JJEgan, unfortunately it didn't help neither. Yesterday I did the factory reset and left it as it is, didn't restore any of my previous settings or apps, didn't install anything additional, just wanted to see if the problem will appear again, and unfortunately it did.
Anything else I can try or I should take it to a service?
Thank you
I have the same problem with notification sounds. The problem appears when i turn off notifications on apk like im+ or Yahoo messenger. Is there any other solution rather than factory rest?

[Q] Issue with outgoing calls on CM 10.1 based ROMs

Hi all,
For a long time I have being using CM and CM based rome like Slim. Recently (since 4.2.1 and up) I have very annoying issue that is preventing me on using these ROMs as a daily drivers. Namely when my phone boots up I can place only a couple of outgoing calls before they start being rejected with message "Call Ended". That is happening before even call is connected at 0:00. I have tried to google for the problem and have found only that some users on Motorola phones had similar issue back when GB rolled out and they have being able to temporarily correct it by deleting dialer cache. Sadly that doesn't work for me too. Only thing that I can do is to restart my phone...
Thank you for your help guys...

Actually I don't know why u r facing this problem may be flashing a different modem will solve your problem
And for reboot... If u have to reboot frequently use a app (forgetting its name) that will restart all your networks in one click without rebooting...

Thanks on ur answer but I really don't want to use some app every time I want to make a phone call. Is it possible that modem is causing issues because when I flash 4.1.2 I don't have these issues and also, like I mentioned before, I can make one or two calls after I reboot my phone.

weird problem

since last update 1.41 everything seems ok apart from when I am disconnected from internet via wifi or data themer crashes,as soon as I reconnect it is fine,anyone else have a similar problem ?
this only applies to any themes made in 1.41,any themes that are made in previous version do not require wifi/data access,can't believe just me having this issue.Have gone down the remove install but issue still persists.

Just updated and problem seems to have vanished now,thanks to devs for quick solve
Problem not resolved yet.
I updated from 1.41 to 1.42 yesterday but the problem still persists.
Whenever i get disconnected from wifi or mobile data, i get to see an irritating pop-up every 1 minute saying: "The app found information about previous cashed. would you like to send this data to the developer?"
I have send it numerous times but it is still there. Its too much irritating.
I also tried uninstalling the themer app and deleting the my colorscreen folder, then restarted the phone and reinstalled the themer. But the problem is still there.
For additional information: This weird problem has started since addition of stupid "bollywood" category
yeah I just made a post regarding this as I now have the same issue m8,sent bloody loads of reports,and you are correct removing themer completely and reinstall does not work
the only way I have managed to get it working properly is to do a factory reset of the phone.Everything else including numerous deletes and reinstall does not work,I tried this as a last resort.Can someone let us know why themer seems to be holding onto the crash data,which as posted above is so annoying,and I or anyone else shouldn't have to factory reset to correct,Can this issue be looked into please by developers,as it can't just be the two of us having this issue.

So for both of you, the problem only occurs when you get disconnected from WiFi/mobile data? Does this include going into Airplane mode?
We want to see if we can replicate this on our end.

Yep as above and guess what factory reset does not solve it same problem this morning even though no errors in themer after reset,and agan plane mode is the same when not connected

We're just trying to replicate the problem. There hasn't been anyone else with the same issue, therefore we need as much info as possible. I put my Nexus 5 on Airplane mode every night and haven't experienced the problem, hence asking the question.

I assume there must be numerous people out there who might be facing the same issue, may be they are following this thread and just waiting for us to reach the resolution of the problem.
I agree with you that the more information will help you to diagnose the problem in better way, and I appreciate your support.
I own stock Samsung Galaxy Note 2 with Android 4.3. I''ll appreciate if "alldroid" and any other who is having the same issue, share their device info here.
Already did above somewhere m8 galaxy s4 running stock kitkat,it has to be themer related other wise the factory reset would have solved it.The only other solution is that the theme itself held on to the errors prior to remove and delete,but even if it did it is a themer problem imo as once an error log is sent it should be removed frm themers memory

We'll keep searching to see if more people are reporting this problem. There is a huge update coming up, I'll see if the update is fixing this issue.
still have the issue and I refuse to believe only two of us have this issue,either that or we are the two most unluckiest themer app users in the world
latest update and..........problem solved no longer asks to send crash data when no net connection
No guys, you are not alone, I'm having this issue too anytime I disconnect my device from a wifi or mobile data, even during poor connection even though with the new update this should be fixed. I don't know if this happens in Airplane mode, never used that mode but I'll try and give you feedback.

see I knew we weren't alone,as above I have changed messed about with,used airplane mode and not had the error since the latest update here.Let us know if the update solves your problem m8
