HTC : Bought An Desire - Can't Make Any Call
Jul 30, 2010
I just bought an HTC Desire from a streed vendor. He said the phone used to be on vodaphone monthly contract. The phone was lost/stolen and sim blocked by Vodaphone.
Now when I try to use my T-mobile (sim monthly contract) in Desire, it shows the network but when making any calls, no call is made. It shows 'call ended'. Does anyone know why this happens? (Have I made a mistake by purchasing this phone?) Does this need to be unlocked?

My phone is unbranded, unlocked, rooted, partitioned EXT3/FAT32 and running oxygen 0.2.1.I am upgrading to a 16 gig microsdhc card. What do I need to do to switch over?Is clockwork recovery on my sd card? I am concerned if I switch to a freshly partitioned card i'll lose the ability to flash.I don't care about personal data lost because I don't have any. This phone is barely a few days old. I don't mind starting fresh as I'm still experimenting with roms and such.

I live in Canada and after months of eagerly waiting, I finally got my paws on the HTC Desire from Telus (network provider). After having it for a little over 2 weeks now I've got nothing, but good things to say about the overall performance of the device except for the Call Volume!!! When I make a call or receive a call the Volume is so quiet I can almost never hear the person on the other end.
Have any of you had this issue or found a way to correct it? I've seen it commonly talked about on some other threads, but so far nothing on this site. Please tell me I'm not alone in this.
Edit: I should add that yes I have the call volume maxed and I have no issues with the Speakers when playing Music or Videos. Just Call Volume during Calls.

I use Google Voice (love it) primarily because of it's visual voicemail on my Droid. I do have a Google Voice number, and I'm trying to decide whether to set the Droid app to "make calls using Google Voice" or not.
I have no problem with giving out a different number, and my placed calls seeing the GV number in caller ID.
My question is, does this affect how the call is actually connected, from a quality standpoint? I tired a call both ways, and the sound quality seemed a little bit different. But then, I am an obsessive compulsive weirdo.
Is there any difference in call quality or routing between making a native Verizon call and a Google Voice call on Droid? (Like, does Google voice actual use 3G to connect to Google server over the internetz, then place the phone call?)

Is it possible to make a call from an activity and make sure the activity doesn't keep running while the call is in session? And, once the user is done with the call (by pressing the hangup button or whatever), the call log screen wouldn't get shown and the user would be directed to a new activity within the application. I know there's ways to detect calls and call hangups through services, but, I'm not sure if it's possible to make an activity from an app pop up as soon as a call is over.

I've been using Nimbuzz and fring to make a voice call but fring does not support skype anymore and Nimbuzz somehow mutes itself. I wonder what other BH2 users use to make a voice or video call. If would be really helpful if someone can let me know. I'm in a long-distance(9000km) relationship.

Since updating to 2.2 recently, my phone interface when calling has gotten worse. It has the add call, hold, mute and speaker buttons on top of the number, so I cannot see who is calling. It also overlaps the bottom part.
That is not that bad, it is more preferance. The real problem is that I can not bring up numbers while in the middle of a call. This makes calling automated numbers, or more importantly, my voicemail.
Has anyone else come across this? If so, how did you deal with it? Is there a button I am missing? Or a new phone interface I can download?

I'm having a bit of an issue with my new phone, A couple of times now I have hit the call button on the wrong person, (hand and eye coordination needs improving) and couldn't cancel it until I heard the ringing. I see the big red button "END CALL" but it seems to be disabled until the call has been connected.
Anyone even notice this or is there an setting to fix it? Please help me stop making embarrassing phone calls!

I have a Evo on one of my lines that pissed me the hell off after the 2.2 update and I have a Epic at a Radio Shack waiting for me this very second when I'm able to sneak out of work. I was just curious to hear what any former Evo users thought. I cant wait to get it to see if ##775# works...Long story regarding force roaming. Although I'm not much of a cell gamer dude I am curious to see if Asphalt 5 looked better then the Evo since the 30 fps cap def.shows, (gets choppy when too many cars are onscreen). I'm thinking if I like the Epic enough I'm sell my Evo and make my money back ez.

I am resident of India. But right now i am in US. I am planning to buy a Google Dev Phone 1. I will be using it in India once i am back to India after 2 months.
If I buy it in US, can I use it in India? My suspect is on 3G band currently used in India (BSNL/MTNL) or soon to be used (by airtel / vodaphone).
This is Android's spec # 3G WCDMA (1700/2100 MHz) # Quad-band GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) I am not sure about the upcoming 3G bands in India. Can any one clarify this?

Two times in the last two days I had an issue where my Hero wouldn't call when selecting a contact or manually entering the phone number. Both times I turned the phone off and back on and it worked perfectly.

So I bough a couple games from the Sprint store (online) a couple years ago, including Bejewled, Deer Hunter and Tetris. I have changed phones a couple times since then, and was able to redownload them free of charge because it kept records on my account of them. Now I have my Evo and cannot figure out how to get back to the Sprint store site, so I cant get these games I have already paid for. Any ideas?

I am currently travelling at Hongkong, here in Mongkok district of Hongkong, there are hundreds of shops selling mobile phones at 'quite cheap' prices. I just bought a HTC desire, it was sealed with plastic, and the storekeeper said that it was a HTC desire with warranty. For HKD 4100. I wanted to buy 2 units, one for my sister. But the store only has 1. So I went to a store next door, and the storekeeper said what I just bought must have been a 'refurbished' one. He said the normal price in HK should be around HKD4250 - HKD4300. Question is, Are there really any method to check whether this new phone I just bought isn't a refurbished one? or a second hand sold as a new unit ? seeing me as a foreigner, they would think I am easier to trick.

I went to make a call and my Droid was off. I had checked email on it about two hours prior and had 80% battery life. When I got home I plugged it into the charger and nothing. Hit the power button, still nothing. Finally took out the battery and put it back in while still on the charger and finally it turned back on, with about the same battery life it had when I checked my email.
Then I tried to make a phone call and it simply would not make the call. I killed all tasks and tried again with no luck. Then the same text came through eight times. I turned the phone off and on again and the problem persisted. Finally about a half an hour later after leaving the phone alone, it seemed to be working fine. Made calls, texts, etc with no problems. An hour after that the phone shut off again. I had to take out the battery and put it back in again, and after about ten minutes it was working normally. This was about an hour ago.

With Facebook integration and having tons of peoples phone numbers at hand in the Phone button, I really really would feel more comfortable if it would prompt me after clicking on a name. The touch is is super sensitive and even scrolling through, I accidentally called people I haven't talked to in years.

I really want a way to disable the soft End Call button that pops up in call. If there is an app or widget that some one knows of that can help me,can you please let me know? I'm sick of my face ending calls in the middle of a conversation. Apparently, my cheeks hit it at just the right place to hang up on everyone.

what is the best way to make a phone call?I am coming from a BB Curve and when I wanted to call my husband, I just pushed the letter T (his name is Tim) and it would pop up with my T contacts and I would hit go and it would call him.Now, on the droid, I hit the phone icon, then hit contacts, then scroll through all the way down to T and select him there.Is there a better way? And I did search the forums, but the questions having to do with making calls were all way more complicated than this one!

I tend to either make or receive calls that end in me needing to make an appointment for that caller. Does anyone know if there is an app that handles that in a neat fashion.I'm just 24 hours into Android and although there are many things that are very different for me coming from years of winmo, I'm enjoying it.

To make a phone call via HTML on an iPhone I create an <A/> tag with an href formatted as: <a href='tel:123-555-1212'>Dial Me</a>.Is there an equivelant for HTML on Android? using the format href='tele:123-555-1212' does indeed work on on android. I was testing the app within a native Java wrapper on the device. It does not appear as if we can make a call from a web application hosted in a Native Wrapper.

You know how when you hit the phone icon and it comes up with the dial pad, is there anyway to make the call log pop up instead of the dial pad?
