Hello Everyone.
Wonder if anyone can help me as I think I am going mad!
I use my headset all day (listening to podcasts) and whenever i answer a call, I have to remain very still for fear i will hang up (which happens regularly).
I have had the same problem on many roms - Omega, Temasek, Cyanogenmod, Foxhound and many more, its driving me crazy.
I have also installed proximity service and an app which I cant remember the name of at the moment, but will update when i find out. Needless to say, nothing has worked, the screen always comes on when a call comes in.
Does anyone have any idea what i can do to sort this, i never need my screen on when my phone is in my pocket.
PS I have tasker, maybe i can use that to sort it?
Thanks for any input

Try Gravity box-power settings-the last two options

That post fixed my problem, as well as fixed the problem which the data connection turns off after a call.
Hey guys, sup?
I have a huge problem with my TELUS Touch Pro. Great phone, but just one problem...
Whenever somebody calls me, I can't answer the phone. The onscreen "Answer" button doesn't work, the Talk button doesn't work, pressing the Select button doesn't work...pressing the headphone button does, but sometimes my headphones are in my pocket, or sometimes they're not with me at all!
The only way I can answer them is by ignoring the call, and calling them back. It sucks big time.
Anybody have a solution? And no, I'm not hard-resetting my phone. It started doing this for my first call, so I'm pretty sure it's not my fault.
HEEAAALLLPPP!!!
Is this the stock ROM?
Do you have BT on and connected?
Mine started doing that yesterday. I did a hard reset and so far everythings back to normal. Still do not know what it was tho
I just had my TP replaced and the new one did the same thing, I did not notice until a few days later as I use a bluetooth headset and pushing the answer key on the headset worked. I had to RTN the device to make it work properly. Have not had a problem since. it has been aabout a week and a half.
Sometimes I've noticed this happens when my memory is tied up elsewhere, ie media player or something. Try soft resetting your phone every morning that might help clear it up.
I have had this happen with me on my Titan which I recently traded in for my Touch Pro, and also on my Touch Pro. I noticed it coincided with installing iGo8 GPS software on both. A hard reset was the only way I found to fix it. Uninstalling the software did not do the trick. I could be wrong about the software title I am blaming, but I have everything reloaded on my phone except that, and all is well. I do have a Slide To Answer incoming call screen now with the MightyRom 4.9.5 rom installed, maybe this is a work around, don't know for sure. If anyone else has more feedback, let me know. I would love to find a fix for it so I can use my GPS software.
Mine started doing this crap last night. I reinstalled the S2A cab and just let it go.
I am starting to think it might just be the telus network being a boatload of suck. Mine does it with the stock rom without any programs loaded from time to time. I am thinking it must be the tower failing to acknowledge that you want to answer the call, so the phone keeps ringing becuase it sees there is an incoming call but the tower ignores that you are trying to answer it. This is just my guess based on what I have read about CDMA, I wonder if any GSM users have the same issue.....
Do any of you have Advanced Configuration installed? This is what caused this problem for mine and my brother's TP. Uninstalling didn't fix it. Had to hard reset.
Yes, this is a known issue with Advanced Config, perhaps some other apps as well. Try this fix.

I can tell you that this will more than likely fix this for you. Mine was doing the same thing, applied this, done and shut! Good luck.
OMG OMG OMG thanks!!!! That also fixed the problem where it ended the data connection after the call.
Sorry I took so long, I THOUGHT I was subscribed to the thread...
Thanks again!
i have the galaxy for 5 monthes now..
switched tons or ROMs and kernels.
since i tried the 2.3.5 androidmeda(i think it started there) i have a problem answering my phone.
when someone call me i can slide it right in order to answer, the phone stop the ringtone like i answered but i cant hear anything hile the other side think someone answered him as he doesn't hear the tome anymore.
i tried to go back to KG5 but i cant get rid of it.
it got better as i changed the modem(used to be on KI4) to KE4 and KG5(the rom im with right now but its not good.i can answer but it takes 5-10 seconds before i see the call screen and able to talk properly.
tryied androidmeda,cognition,batista,xpower(the used to be),villain and so. none helped so i guess its not ROM related exactly.
Maybe some data was changed (such as the opening after trying androidmeda-the white turning cube and the android character insted of the samsung s 2 pic).
i tried various MODEMS in order to solve it but no progress yet.
anyone familiar with this problem?anyway to solve it?
Sounds like a hardware problem more than a rom problem. You have tried all them custom roms do its quite odd. Id say trying to go back to a full stock rom if you haddent already and maybe test out other voice features on the phone like voice record and the google voice search thing.

Hi community!
My phone mutes if i pick it up while ringing.
Kinda remember there is a mod or app which makes ringing less loud when the phone senses being picked up to recieve the call.
That might be useful sometimes, but i don't have any of such installed.
I browsed through settings, ROM control, but haven't find any motion controlled sound option.
This is quite annoying, i miss a lot of calls, cause most of the time i carry the phone in my pocket, so it's always moving and never ringing.
Vibration works perfect though.
Any help is much apprecited.
Btw.: i'm on P.A.C. ROM, with latest Dorimanx kernel.
I never had any issue whatsoever, that's why i try to avoid wiping the phone and put the whole thing together again from scratch.
Cloned as second ROM and installed again without wipe, to get rid of the mods, but didn't help.
Thanx for your help in advance! :highfive:

Sounds like a ROM issue.
So ask in ROM thread.
Could also be a hardware issue, but check all ROM settings first.
Good luck !

Tried them all, didn't help.
No ideas in rom thread either.
I think i'm gonna have to make a clean install to get rid of this for good.
Thanx anyways!
Hey guys, I'm having this issue with my stock Razr Maxx, where the ringtone volume turns down (close to silent) and I don't even know it unless I receive a call and there isn't any noise around (or else I totally miss the call).
I understand this is probably a well known bug, but I would just like to know if there's anything triggering it, so I know how to avoid this. I'm using a bluetooth headset every day, at work, but I haven't figured out a pattern yet, or even if the bluetooth headset is causing this.
Help? Please?

Looks like your bluetooth headset may be changing the volume without your consent.
Try to plug it off at least for a day and see if the problem happens
It looks like it wasn't the bluetooth headset.
During the weekend I haven't used it and this morning the volume was all the way down...
I have disabled the 'increasing volume' setting from my alarm and see if that helps, as I realized I always snooze or stop the alarm while it's still barely audible.
=P
I'm used to have three different alarms. I don't like snooze...i prefer to sleep more ten minutes and have a different alarm. Since i'm sleepy when i look the alarm i tend to cancel it instead of snooze also
Some time ago i had a similar problem with my XT910. After taking it to a authorized local service my volume up key wasn't working anymore ; they fixed it somehow.
Why don't you try to install an custom rom or reflash your actual rom ? It would tell us if your problem is hardware or software (if the problem persists with another rom surely its a hardware thing - i don't think kernel is related to this).
I will be flashing the official JB when it comes out, hopefully soon. I've got the "MERetail.en.06" software version now and I understand this is the Middle East version, which will not get the JB OTA update, so I will have to flash another ROM anyway. I'm willing to wait for it to come out first.
Hi.
I was using my Atrix with CM7 MROM for long time.
Yesterday I switched to CM9 Olympus with new kernel by krystianp. It's great rom but...
I got two little problems:
1. when I plug my headset I don't have icon informing about this.
2. when headset is plugged it auto pick up calls. I found something like this "phone>menu key>call settings>Accessory settings for call" but I don't have this options in my dialer or anywhere else.
Can anyone help me with this? Icon is just a feature I liked but auto answering calls is a little disturbing for me. Especially when I don't know who is/was calling.
It is pretty clear you don't know what you're doing, or else you wouldn't flash an experimental ROM and then complain about a bunch of already very well known issues.
I suggest in the future you stick to GB ROMs and stay away from things you don't understand.

I thought auto answer was normal function which is working and I didn't find anything about problems with it. So if it can be turn on should also be able too turn off...
I know that new kernel and roms are in development and that they have some bugs (proximity sensor, screen tearing, problem with some games) but one app which I needed runs only on 4+ Android.
So could answer me it is possible to turn off auto answering calls or it is bug which I miss reading threads about kernel/cm9/cm10?
