Google pixel reinstall android - The Best Apps You've Never Heard of

Hello,
I have flashed before... But I've never actually flashed to factory so it will still accept updates from the carrier.. I have a friend with a Google pixel and it's having some bad glitches. I figure the best way would be to reinstall Android. But how do I have it locked onto Bell (Canada) so it will still have its own updates? I understand this may be a common asked question but I am unable to find much on this. Even a link to a post would be great then I can just delete this.
EDIT: turns out he went to bell reflashed it and it didn't work.
Symptoms:
Calling someone noone can hear him he can't hear them
Incoming call glitches the phone needs a full set
After reset one phone call can be made then it continues same above.
What could be doing this?
Thanks!

Everytime I flash a new ROM I lose voice and data??

Like the title says, everytime I flash a new one, or if I flash ziggy kernel especially I cannot get voice calls or data, i get radio interface shortage errors when texting ect, i have to do the ##3282# reset about 5 times to get anywhere, any theories or suggestions? I haven't seen anyone else with this problem and it started when I flashed xron ROM a few nights back..
Are you a google voice user? Are you gsm or cdma?
I only use google voice for voicemail, its Sprint CDMA
Did you update your radios AND firmware? I think the file was radio firmware nohboot or something like that?

It doesn't happen to me EVERY time, but I find myself having to go through the whole reprovisioning and re-setting data thing a lot more than I would prefer to. Hell, I've had 6 of these handsets since release date and I've had to **** around with this issue right out of the box on EVERY one! Love the phone but cmon HTC....wtf!! They really screwed the pooch on this phone, lol.

My problems are usually data problems. As far as losing voice, that happened once after using one of the older "superwipe" files floating around. Took a whole Saturday to get it back, had to get Sprint involved...boy was I pissed! Been using XRON superwipe lately and it's doing the trick!
Try ##scrtn# from dialer then enter your msl. After it reboots let us know if that works.

Still didn't help, when I go to more info on the radio interface shortage error the error code is 67,wasn't that the code a lot of people were getting after revolutionary first came out?
Call sprint and have them reset on their end....and good luck

I might have to do this, for some reason this actually happens after every single reboot, had to clarify that.
This happened to me too, even with those resets you are talking about I wasn't able to fix it. You have to call sprint, they do something on their end, guide you through the same process you are talking about, and then it works. Dial 611, tell them the error and any error code you have. Apparently they are familiar with it because they know exactly what you are facing and know how to fix it without doing any research or any other diagnostic steps.
I don't think this problem has anything to do with HTC, or the phone itself. I think it has to do with Sprints Google Voice integration. I use GV for voicemail only and I have this problem every once in s while. Next time it happens, try making the call using GV. If it works you know this is your problem. For some reason, even though you have it set up differently, GV will take over. This is a completely separate issue from the error 16 that a lot of people are getting with this phone. If it is an error 16 a simple call to Sprint will fix it. If it is the GV integration thing, then it is much harder to fix and rebooting to recovery, wiping cache and dalvik will sometimes fix the problem. Also, reflashing the kernel will sometimes fix it too. I haven't figured out a definite way to fix it yet though. It seems every time this happens, it takes something different to fix it.
I'm actually not even setup to make calls on google voice, I went directly onto the voice. Google. Com website and changed the settings to voicemail only and turned off all other integration.. Can it still be interfering?

Yes. Mine is set up the same way and when this happens if I choose to ask me every time I make a call in the GV app settings and choose GV to make the call it goes through, but when I chose do not use GV it won't work. I get a message that says, "I'm sorry, we are unable to complete your call at this time. Please try again later" and that's it. Since the Google Voice integration with Sprint I have noticed that no matter who you are calling you must dial 1, then the area code, then the # even if it is a local call.

Wrong call back numbers on non VZW carriers

I have a VZW i605 Note 2.
I am using AT&T service.
I have JellyBeans 21 ROM installed.
OK, on to the question...
When I receive a phone call the call back number is wrong. From what I have read it is an issue with non Verizon service or something.
If I were to get a call from 18147259951 it would show up as +8147259951 in my recent calls list, making it impossible for me to easily call them back from that screen.
Does anyone have any idea of how this could be fixed?
I know I can just install an international ROM and it will work, however then my GPS will not work. (I also really like JellyBeans)
This has been bugging me for some time now and I would greatly appriciate any assistance I can get.

[Q] Conditional Call Forwarding on Lollipop 5.0.2

Just trying to see if anyone else is in my boat. I was running the International 5.0.1 with Viper 4.3 and had set Google Voice to be my voicemail program. Once the RUU for AT&T stock rom came out, I decided to flash that to my phone and have a clean start. I ran the RUU twice and everything seems to be working great with the ROM. Except I can no longer access my Call Forwarding or Additional Settings options. My phone settings says that my carrier is my voicemail, but when I miss a call, Google Voice is still picking it up.
Anyone follow a similar path have a similar result? Just checking before I try flashing different ROMs to bring it back to life.
A search on the google shows people on the Note 4 having a similar issue to mine, but I don't see anyone else with a M8 in my boat.
Thanks.
edit: I guess I should have posted this in the Q&A section. Sorry, my bad.
Close This Please
Consider this issue solved. In the end something wasn't right about my SIM card. I removed it to try it in another phone and it worked fine there. Then when I put it back in this phone, it now also works. Probably had a smudge on it or wasn't seated quite right.
Sorry to waste the space here.

Help! My phone is blocking ALL incoming phone calls! Help!

Suddenly, my phone has decided to block ALL calls, even from my favorite contacts and voicemail. I just cannot receive incoming calls. The notification shows "Missed call from (blocked) [contact name or phone number]." The [contact name or phone number] part shows the name of the contact or phone number that is being blocked.
EDIT: Outgoing calls work just fine.
I have disabled blocked/black lists on the phone app, removed any restrictions from Hangouts/Voice and any other apps that interfere with the phone functions. I have restarted the phone and restored the phone app from Titanium. I have frozen/uninstalled any third party apps that provide calling/texting functions, such as voice, hangouts, talkatone, etc. I have even cleared cache and removed default app options from phone/contacts.
This problem suddenly started and I just cannot figure out what may be causing this problem. When I search online, it shows listings of apps that block calls, etc., but nothing that addresses my problem.
I am an advanced user - I have root on my current phone (Galaxy s3 with 4.4.2), and have installed custom roms on previous phones (an old Charge, s2, S3), etc. I am not a newbie, so, PLEASE answer my issue without condescension - THANK YOU.
I do not want to factory reset my phone - any ideas about what might be causing this problem and how to resolve it?
Phone info: Galaxy s3 with 4.4.2, rooted, on Verizon (I535).
Thanks.
Verizon tier 2 tech not helping
Tier 2 tech hasn't helped at all!
My only thought would be that what ever file that handled blocked calls got corrupted, and it wasn't removed when you uninstalled it. The only thing that might help is reflashing the rom. Now I never advise a dirty flash due to issues that can come of it but as you don't want to factory reset then it might be an option.
As you are not a noob my suggestion would be to format just the system partition, and reflash. Or you could just reflash. Either way is not 100%
Verizon thinks it might be a SIM card problem. So, I'll replace it and see how that works. If not, a bloody re-flash it will be.
Any other ideas in the meantime?
Thanks.

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.
