[Q] Can't make outgoing calls, call barring active but deactivated... - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there,
Thanks for taking a look! I'm on the Note 3 (SM-N9005).
At a certain point I couldn't make calls anymore also messaging seems not to be working
When I try to make a call it stops after 3 seconds and says call barring is active.
I've tried stock rom, reset + erase data. Clean cache. I've tried the MMI codes and through there it says it isn't activated?
Also tried setting my network too GSM only and rebooting.
Still nothing would work.
As a sidenote: incoming calls and messages are working. Also my 4g isn't deactivated so it would be weird if Vodafone would just barricade my outgoing calls right?
I'll call them tommorow to be sure though.
If anyone has any idea on how to get this fixed I would really appreciate your help!

I don't receive incoming calls!

So, with the stock root rom, with a few different roms, and even with different kernels and radios, I don't ever receive incoming calls (though if I make an outgoing phone call, it works just fine).
Anyone know if this is something I can fix? Or is it an issue on Verizon's side? They had to go through three 4G SIM cards before finding one that my phone could actually activate with, so I'm wondering if that's the problem.
Did you set up call forwarding? Try calling *73 as this disables all calls to be forwarded, and try again.
You know what? I think you might be right... before I got my Thunderbolt, I had an OG Droid set to forward calls to a different temporary number...
My phone is going through a restore right now, so the INSTANT it boots up, I'll be dialing *73.
EDIT
VICTORY! It must have kept the call forwarding on the line. Thank you SO MUCH.
you're welcome.

[Q] No incoming calls

I've had the Galaxy S2 for about 2 months now without any problems.
As of last Friday, I can't receive incoming calls. People who try to call me hear one beep and then they get my voicemail.
Outgoing calls work just fine, as does SMS (incoming and outgoing).
I've put my T-Mobile SIM in another phone and then it is able to receive a call. Another SIM in my phone -> same problem: no incoming calls.
So I figured it must be the phone.
Customer support has started an investigation but that can take up to 1 week, so I thought let's ask XDA.
Can it be a simple setting that I've accidentally changed? Pretty often when I take my phone from my pocket, the screen is unlocked so that could be a cause.
If anyone has a clue or an identical situation, please let me know.

Does your phone ring when a call comes in and also does it go straight through to your voicemail?

Straight to voicemail. But I've figured it out after 3 days
There's an option to automatically block all incoming calls in the settings. Must have accidentally been activated when the phone was in my pocket.

In my case, the phone does not ring when I get a call at all. I have searched hi and low and I cant find a solution. I have rebooted, i have reflashed, I have changed my ringtone and nothing seems to work, please help!!
Hello my girlfriends SGS 2 has almost the same problem it cannot receive calls sometimes even though she can call everyone. The problem seems to fix by itself sometimes and it appears random.
I read that there was a problem with the samsung galaxy s when using 2G/EDGE connection with data activated and the problem was that the user could not receive calls randomly.
Can you confirm that you are using 2G/EDGE connection and Data activated? I am also trying to find the cause of this problem...
Hope my research helps good luck and waiting for your reply. (http://www.samsunggalaxysforum.com/...eive-incoming-calls-and-sms-while-using-edge/)
Later EDIT ---
She also has a vodafone provider but i have the same provider and never had this issue. Also no call filtering is done.
Make sure Call Forwarding is Disabled under Settings- Call- Call forwarding. And also try to delete the Voicemail number if you had set any.
Regards.
it's nothing Call Forwarding is Disabled related it is because of EDGE connection you can't have a sync or internet connection and while "dialing" data receive calls if you want to call anyone the network prioritizes and let's you dial whoever you want but it is not the same thing for incoming calls
^ Went over my head !
had the same problem in a bad 3g/data coverage area. solution was simply to turn data off and the calls started to come through.
turned data back on and now working ok.

Can't make calls

Hey all so today I tried to make a phone call but after I dial the # and press call after like 3 seconds it goes straight to call ended. I can send texts and receive them and also use the data. Also I've had this phone for 4months now and never experienced this issue any ideas? I also haven't downloaded/installed anything recently

Try to use the SIM card with another phone.
Just to check, if it is a problem with the SIM card / your carrier or phone-related.
And why do you have to dial a "#"?
Are there no phone numbers without this symbol/sign just to make a test call?
Maybe it is just an issue to transfer the "#" from your phone => mobile provider => ...?!

Call ended as soon as I call and not reachable when someone tries to call (Lineage16)

As the title says, as soon as I start a call it ends and when someone tries to call me, they get the voicemail saying that I'm not reachable and I get an SMS saying that someone has tried to call me while I wasn't reachable, but I don't get any call popup on my screen.
Tried flashing every modem firmware, wiping cache, switching from google phone to stock, turning off volte but none of those worked.
Please help me, I've been struggling with this problem for three days and it is impossible to work like this.

Check your APN settings and if necessary correct them to what your carrier says they should be. I had a similar problem and that was the fix.
If that's not it, try your SIM in a different phone if you can. You might have a bad SIM.
Heyyo, here's an APN list that might work better for you since it is updated by Google.
