Hi. I have cyanogenmod 10 running on my T-Mobile Amaze 4g and really enjoy the ROM except for one MAJOR problem.
Intermittently, my service is completely dropped. I will still have 4g data and full bars, but cannot make or receive a call or send or receive a text. I also receive an error when I try and search for networks. Then a few minutes (or sometimes a half an hour) later, service returns.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I have TWRP v2.3.3.0 installed and used the all-in-one-kit to do all the necessary unlocking, etc.
Has anyone else experienced this or know of a solution?

I am experiencing a large number of dropped calls. Like every other call gets dropped. I'm restoring back to OEM non-root and going to test it. Does anyone else have this issue?
I haven't personally experienced this issue, but I would recommend flashing a new radio first before restoring. It could save you some headache.
Where are you at? I'm in dallas tx a and have been having alot of issues.

I am having precisely the same issue. I have flashed to the latest MR2 radio AND updated to BAMF 2.1's excellent Gbread build, but if anything, it's worse. The symptoms are the same as others experiencing the issue - talking normally, when bam - the phone hangs up (my wife is an especially big fan of this).
I honestly don't think it's a rooted vs: non-rooted issue. It started happening before I rooted!
I see other people resolving the issue by dialing *228 and selecting option 2, but when I do that, the phone tells me it already updated the roaming profile at boot up via the SIM card.
Does anyone have any other suggestions before I un-root and get a new one from Verizon?
Unroot and test. Call vzw and see if there is any dropped calls or problems in the area..
Starr 228 doesn't work on 4G everytime you turn on your device it searches for towers
Greetings from sunny ???? notts
Been a long time lurker, but now i am in need of some help.
Had the galaxy s2 for a couple of weeks now and most of the time it works great. but occasionaly it will not recieve calls or sms. i get no notifications of missed calls, voicemail messages etc. to the caller it just goes straight to voicemail. A few hours later i get all? the sms come in at once, sometimes a voicemail notification but no missed calls. when this happens i have a good signal and am able to call out.
Its definately not because i was using data services at the time and not lack of signal.
I have rooted the phone, but still with a stock rom (ke7 ?)
Anyone got any ideas ?
The handset ? The sim card ? or the network ?
All the best
have fun

i have the same issue as you ...
the only solution that i found is to set my phone is GSM MODE only but you will loose your 3g/h data and only use EDGE

Lo Rich. Miggy round?(private joke)
Was wondering, was the phone on charge when it missed the calls/texts?
it could be any number of things, really. if your sim card is not fairly new i would replace it just to be on the safe side. you might try hard resetting your phone (which will delete all your info so back it up first) and starting over.
do you have any apps that block data connections at various times? if so i would delete that app and use the phone for a few days without it to see if the issue goes away.
have you flashed a different radio? if so, try the one that matches your rom, or try the newest one you can find.
there are many possible causes, but if i were in your position i would hard reset it and not install any apps that might interfere with your connection to the network and i would make sure my sim card was fairly new. if the issue still persists you might try asking for an exchange if possible.
If upu have the phone on GSM only then incoming calls go directly to voicemail when data bursts are happening (which is often). So switch to 3g to fix.
If you're not on GSM then I have no idea, maybe no signal in that area...
Thanx
Ok theres possibly been a development with this.
But first a big thanx to all your suggestions, and my response to them.
Seems a bit pointless having such a device then crippling some of it just to get the basic phone part to work. although switching to gsm only may be a temporary solution.
Fault occurs either on charge or not.
Fault has occured whilst at home where all data connections are disabled and wi-fi exclusively used. I havent tried flashing a different radio yet, but it is still on the latest ?? ke7 ? firmware. Sim card was brand new a couple of weeks ago.
So gsm only wont help, but as above when at home i use wi-fi.
Now i spoke to my network, talk mobile a few days ago, they say it will take more than 5 days for their IT dept to contact me to try and sort this ! as i can still make calls they dont see it as a major fault ??? Looks like customer care is not important to them.
I have also spoke to the company i purchased from(wish i hadnt as customer DISatisfaction appears high on their list of prioritys)mobiles.co.uk. I was speaking to someone at their Fullfillment team yesterday about getting another handset sent out, but for some reason i couldnt finish arranging it yesterday. Then early yesterday eve one of their guys rang me back out of the blue to say he had been looking into my fault and had found something not quite right with the original connection they had set up. He was honest enough to admit it was a bit beyond his knowledge and was getting someone from the connections dept to help him. they are going to re-do my connection and for me to wait 24hrs for this to be sorted and hopefully it should be ok after that. All credit to Leeroy at mobiles.co.uk.
The only problem now is other than getting someone to ring me every 1/2hr, how do i know if its working or not ?
I guess the best i can do is leave it a while and see if i get any more complaints that people cant get hold of me.
Once again many thanx for all your suggestions, i will update this when i am confident it has or hasnt been fixed.
many thanx
have fun

this happens to me perhaps every other day
i get a txt saying so and so called but left no message
my reception is fine and my phone has been sitting in one place on 3 bars
i call the person and they said they tried to call and it went straight to voicemail
the txt arrives instantly so i am putting up with just calling people back as its not very frequent
plus i have 1200 mins so i need to use them!
I have the same problem and I believe mine has something to do with the way the towers handle the switch from 3g to edge. You said you get a text message showing a missed call, I think that would be usefull to me also until we can get this fixed. Are you using google voice to get your sms, if not what?
I have the exact same problem, and it's beginning to interfere with my work. The HSDPA signal here is very weak. So I switched it to GSM only, which resolved my signal problem, but I keep missing calls. All I get is a sms saying that I missed a call. Would my problems be solved if I had full HSDPA signal the entire time? You said that calls are missed when data bursts are happening on GSM only? I almost never receive a call the first time. Only after ~3 attempts would they get a hold of me.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
My ATT HOX+ is not receiving incoming calls.
I am not sure when it started.
I rooted with Hasson's tool several days ago and I have no other problem that I know of. Not sure if rooting is responsible or not.
I can receive calls from my GF's ATT iPhone, but I get no image of her for some reason.
I do not get calls from my ATT landline (not U-verse VOIP).
I do not get calls from my mothers landline, she does have VOIP from something other than ATT.
Data, wifi, sms, mms, all seem to be fine,
Any advice is greatly welcome

You could run the RUU and see if that clears up the issue. If not, then you know it is a phone or network issue.
Tried everything that seemed safe to try.
Called ATT, the nice person took me off network and back on again while I had the sim card out.
Fixed the problem with my landline not being able to call, but not my mother not being able to call.
The tech is sending my to get a new sim card on the off-chance it is the culprit, but believes that it is a network problem.
I will check back with an update later incase anyone else has a similar problem.

I'm having the same problem as are others. Found this fix which might help.
http://www.andromods.com/fix-troubleshoot/fixing-htc-one-x-plus-cant-receive-calls-voicemail-problem.html
I'm experiencing this problem as well. It doesn't matter who tries to call me from what, but calls only make it through about 5% of the time, which is completely unacceptable. The calls that don't make it through won't go to voicemail. Half the time it rings endlessly, the other half it will give some message saying the call cant be completed.
When I first got the phone, I didn't switch my data plan to an LTE plan right away (Best Buy didn't require me to do so, and AT&T insisted that I had to switch to their $30/mo plan so I kept my $25/mo plan for the first few weeks). During the time I did not have an LTE data plan I experienced no issues with the phone. A few weeks back I noticed that AT&T was now giving me an option for a $25/mo LTE plan, so I switched to that. That exact day is when I started not being able to receive phone calls.
Other things I've noticed since switching to the LTE data plan:
When I make calls, I often have to try 2-3 times before I can get the call to go through. Sometimes as soon as I try to make the call, the phone beeps at me. Sometimes it will hang for a good 10 seconds before it starts to ring.
Occasionally my phone will stop recognizing the SIM card, requires reboot.
Occasionally I'll lose my data connection, requires reboot.
Text messages some times take over an hour to send/receive, sometimes this is solved by a reboot, other times not.
I went to an AT&T store, they tried switching out my SIM card, but did not help me any further because I bought the phone at Best Buy. (I wanted to argue with the rep, because I had bought my Atrix from Amazon, and the same AT&T store helped me with the problems I had with that phone). The rep fed me some garbage saying that some phone numbers just don't work with HTC phones. Fed up, I left the store.
Hey there,
I've had my S3 for almost 2 years now (So definitely no warranty) and around 2 weeks ago it started acting out:
Whenever I answered or made a call, there would be no sound (media players could work fine in the background but no call sound) and after around 30 seconds the network signal would drop and take a minute or so to reconnect.
Texts, Apps and general internet usage works just fine but buttom line i've been without a proper phone to make calls with for the last 2 weeks.
I've tried flashing CM11 Installer version (used to be stock) and that helped for like a day, then I got an advice to flash a new modem but that didn't help either.
I've seen that this problem happened to some people around the web about 2 years ago but haven't managed to find a single [SOLVED] thread.
So, does ANYONE have any clue as to what's going on or how to solve it?\
I would really hate to shed 300$ on a new phone right about now =P
Flash the latest stock firmware for your country with Odin, then factory reset before booting. If still the same then you have a hardware fault.

Hello,
Were you ever able to find a solution for your problem? I have a customer who is complaining of the same issue(s).
She said that she is unable to make phone calls or send SMS messages while on Data (2G, 3G, etc.), as well as her signal drops repeatedly.
I was hoping that you'd be able to assist me if you were able to find your solution, as I think the next step would be a hardware (Antenna) change in the phone itself, if it isn't the software itself that's the issue.
Hello regarding my Galaxy Note 5 (Verizon LTE Unlocked), I tried using a MetroPCS sim and I noticed how it takes about 2 tries to get my calls through and each time it also takes 50 seconds for the call to connect. Same thing happens when someone else tries to call me.
So far I have tried Formatting my phone, Changing APN settings , updating to latest version, asking customer service to do a refresh of my sim and entering safe mode to see if an app was causing the problem. Nothing has worked so I went to the MetroPCS store today and the person told me I am stupid to try and use a non t-mobile phone with MetroPCS....even if it is unlocked. I felt oddly frustrated that he was criticizing me instead of helping me so now im regretting switching to this carrier.
If there is any way I can fix this or any tips I can use please tell me, i'd appreciate it a lot.
