This is the strangest thing and I've got a feeling it's going to take a reset to fix it. 9 times out if 10 when I get a phonecall (dif contacts & carriers) I'll get a blip and maybe nothing but the call is gone and I have to call the person back. It shows the call in the call log with the reject symbol but I've checked all auto reject settings and it shows off per contact and all settings. Ideas?

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.
On 6/2 I got my new evolte, along with adding a line for my girlfriend who also got one. We were both having issues with them so on 6/9 we both exchanged them for new ones. The only issue that carried over is we are both having problems making calls, and possibly receiving calls although we aren't sure because we're not positive our voicemail is setup. The main problem is with outgoing calls I tend to get an error stating I must enter an area code when dialing this number, error message 8 switch 391. I get this 9 out of 10 times when I try to call her (it sometimes goes through) and every time I try to call my voicemail to set it up. She's only had this issue once or twice when trying to call me, but we're not sure that she's receiving calls every time. I've been with Spring for 10 years and coming from an OG Evo, I've never had these issues. I've already called customer service about not being able to receive calls and they weren't all that helpful. Has anyone else had this issue?
Hey, O am having a little issue so I hope you guys can help me out. I am using the built in sip connectivity in the dialer that comes stock (I am using golden eye rom). I have it set to receive calls as well but I am having an issue that for some reason or another after a little while I can't receive calls unless I go into the settings and untick then retick the receive calls option. Any ideas how to solve this or maybe I missed a setting? I am using freecall for sip service since I have an account with them to make calls. Now, making calls works great and always works its just the receiving calls which sucks right now.. Look bellow to understand my full setup
Person Call my GV number -> GV rings IPKall number -> my phone should ring. Some times it does, like within 20 minutes of signing in but once I sleep my device its done.
Strange issue, I could send/receive text messages, and I could also make calls, but when trying to call my phone from another phone or if anyone else called me it would just ring like normal and go to voicemail, but my phone wouldn't ring or indicate that I had a call / missed call. This was fixed after a reboot but has anyone else had this issue?

I have the same issue I tried a reboot but the problem keeps coming back did that fix it permanently for you? Sometimes calls come in other times it just shows up as a voicemail.

My mom's G3 exhibited this issue over the weekend, waiting to see if it comes back.

I haven't had the issue since, but then again I wouldn't know unless someone texts me that they've been trying to call (I don't monitor my voicemail that closely...probably should though).
I've seen the exact same issue as well. I won't even get the call but the voice mail will show up if the caller left a message. Hopefully this is just a bad connection to the cell towers at the time the call was trying to get through and not some other issue.

Hi coming from the M8 forums and checking things out, and I had this issue and it was due to the tower being worked on in my area. I didn't have service for an entire month at my office or apt, which are less than a mile apart. Now I have poor data service but i can receive calls. You might want to contact Sprint and let them know ASAP
I cant receive calls but i can do outgoing and sms to others weird using international unlock lg g3 sprint
Same here...maybe 2 out 10 test calls I tried went through. I called sprint and they instructed me to re-provision the device using some ##7..something..something## dialer codes. My phone magically receives calls, but I have a feeling their re-provision crap didn't do anything to fix, it was just the re-boot part that "temporarily" fixed the incoming call problem.
I have had my G3 for over a week now and there is one issue I can not seem to solve. Anytime I receive an in coming call the phone rings but the screen does not turn on and show me who is calling. I have to fiddle around on a blank screen to have it activate. Every and I mean every phone I have ever had over the years, the screen would always turn on during an in coming call to show who is calling. Am I missing a simple settings somewhere to activate this feature, any advise on this is welcome. Thank you.
Edit: Just to verify, Yes I have the option under Calls activated to have a Pop up on incoming calls, the issues is the screen is not turning on during the in coming call and I can not figure out why.
OK, 37 looks and no one has nothing, that scares me.
