Im using Automatic call recorder
it records all the incoming and outgoing calls on my phone
the thing is after a while, on a random bases, i find it disabled!
what happens is when i actually need to pull a record of a call , it didnt record it cause it was disabled, make the app completely useless
obviously i enable it back on , but somewhere down the line, in a day or a few hours it gets disabled again.

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.
Hi,
I remember seeing an app a couple of months ago that, when set, would let you filter incoming calls while your phone is on silent, the problem is that i have no idea what the app is called and have tried searching with no luck.
Now what i mean is this:
If i put my friends number in the settings of the app and he calls me while my phone is on silent he will recieve an automated SMS from my phone saying that my phone is on silent but if it's an emergency that he should call me again and if they do call me again within a certain period of time the app makes the phone ring normally instead of silencing the call.
Anyway, i have no idea what it's called and would really appreciate any help in finding it
EDIT: Never mind, found it, it's called Dindy
Hey guys,
I'm with Vodafone (Australia) and lately I've been working in my garage a fair bit where I don't have reception. During this time numerous people have called me, however I don't receive any notifications of missed calls at all. And when I go into phone log it doesn't show any call logs.
Is this a setting on the phone or should I contact Vodafone to get this sorted?
Cheers
Good question Jonno. I'm also with Voda & honestly couldn't remember if this feature was working properly or not as I haven't missed a call for ages (people know not to call me at unsociable hours when I have the phone switched off ).
Soooo...I plonked my mobile broadband sim into my Nokia backup phone, turned my SGS2 to flight mode (to mimic not having coverage), called it from the Nokia & let it ring half a doz times then hung up.
Switched the SGS2's radio back on & haven't received a missed call notification (it's been almost 5 minutes). I've searched high & low thru my call settings & can't find anything that would turn such a feature on/off so I'm betting it's a network related thing. I'll update this post if the missed call notification comes thru at any stage tonight.
Yeah I've never got any missed call notifications with the phone. I have people trying to get on to me regarding some recent job applications so it's not very useful if I miss their calls and don't know who to call back!
Might try calling Voda tomorrow to see if they know anything about it...
Jonno...The thick plottens
I was ferreting around in the dialer/call settings & had a look at the call forwarding settings. Basically, forward when busy/unanswered/unreachable is set to that Voda number people who try to call you get when you don't answer & it asks whether you want Voda's "call catcher" to txt the person you're try to call to let them know they missed your call (with the number to call back on).
When I try to disable this feature on any of busy/unanswered/unreachable it tells me the network doesn't allow the feature to be turned off. So it seems Voda thinks their way of people being able to notify you by txt when you miss their call is the best way (only way by the looks of it) for this situation to be handled.
So I'd say people obviously haven't been choosing the option to send you a notification txt (via Voda's call catcher) and have simply been hanging up when they've been unable to reach you.
I guess the only way to get around this is to tell people to use the send notification txt option or to simply send you a txt themselves to say they tried to call & couldn't get you.
Unless you want to have fun calling Voda's uber helpful support ?
Are there any Call Blocking applications that can Block the incoming call, if it is on the Black List, while on an existing call?
Call blocking app I've tried is unable to block the 2nd call, and comes through as a normal call which isn't blocked, but this defeats the purpose of a Call Blocking app.
Is this an Android restriction, or an App restriction?
I do have Youmail, so I can enter numbers I want Blocked, into contacts, and have them Ditched, where the caller would hear a disconnect message.
But I'd like to known about a capable Call Blocking application.
Actually, I have to check with Youmail to see if Calls can be Ditched while on another call.
I use the blocking system that comes with the phone and all calls events texts are blocked..

The gs3 has one built in. Phone/recent/ longpress on undesired #, add to reject list.
edIt- I used call blocker gold on previous device which worked well. Gonna use the built in one for now.
edit_2- ninjaed while editing lol.

I didn't know about the built in. Thanks,
But while I'm on a call, and the Blocked call comes in, it's going to Voicemail after 4 rings, even though I don't see the incoming call ringing on my S3.
The first time I tried it with the built in call Blocker, I didn't hear the outgoing voicemail gtg, and the call showed being blocked. The 2nd try, the call got through.
Can anyone verify that the S3s call Blocker effectively blocks an incoming 2nd call, while you're on an existing call?
Haven't tried... But maybe the app needs root access? There is an app called root call blocker.

I purchased RCB a year or so ago, and activated it on my S3. I set up the Profile and Black List, etc.
While on another call, incoming blocked calls didn't ring on my S3, But the calls went to VM after 5 rings. The Blocked call showed on the RCB list of blocked calls. I've tried 5 Block Actions. I'll have to contact the Developer and inquire about Blocking a "2nd Call."
I've been using my GV# from my device, to call my Sprint # for testing. Maybe that's causing a conflict?
I don't think so, But I'll have to call my S3 from another phone, to Test.
I purchased Extreme Call Blocker Droid from the Market, But while on another Call, the incoming Blocked Call disconnected the Call I was on, and VM picked it up, instead of Blocking it.
The Developer mentioned that the app should have just let the Incoming call through as an Unblocked call, and Not disconnect the Call I was on, because there are limitations with the Android system, where Blocking apps cannot block incoming calls while on another call. This is not what I want because it defeats the purpose of a Call blocking app.
Calls sometimes getting blocked and sometimes not? The Caller will then know that the Number is still "Good."
I'm still looking into this to see if this is an Android, Google or App Limitation.
I used to have the same issue and decided to reflash my ROM and reinstall apps one by one and my phone stopped having this issue but now is back. The issue is that whenever my screen is off and I receive a call my phone rings for a second and then it stops, when I go check who called there's no notification or log about the call. Anybody having this issue. I know it must be a app issue but have no idea which app.
The only app I have installed that could mess with it is GravityBox but I looked trough all the settings, disabled it and uninstalled it and it still does the same problem. But I am pretty sure it has something to do with it.
I also looked into the Call Forwarding option and disabled it but it still does he same thing. This is driving me nuts. I can only receive calls or see whos calling by having my screen on!
