HTC Droid Eris :: Lag Time Placing Calls
Jul 30, 2010
I've had a lot of success getting my random questions about my phone answered on here before, so I thought I would try again. I love my eris as a mini computer, use it for all my apps and emails and everything and it works great. Unfortunately, when it comes to working as a telephone, it sucks. It takes between five and twenty seconds after I click on a contact to place a call, and then when a call is ended or lost the screen either shows black for a while or says "HTC" and then reboots. This is particularly annoying when I lose a call and just want to call someone back, but I have to wait about 30 seconds before my phone even shows me my home screen again. Once I'm on a call its usually fine, but getting the phone screen to load and place calls is super slow. I'm running Task Panel on it, but I don't have it auto-killing anything that HTC makes or that is related to phone calls.

Intermittent head-set issues, specifically No sound when placing or receiving calls. I receive a call, they can hear me...but I can't hear them. I call them back, only to encounter more of the same. I reboot my phone, all is good...until the next occurrence. Contacted Verizon Tech-center, who walked me through a factory default settings switch. Called Verizon back to inform them that the factory default was not help.
They updated my case, and will have the Tech. dept. call me back. Initially this would happen once a month, now it's two-three times a week. Everything else on the Droid works fine - Internet, Email-Sync, Apps...

I come from an original EnV. If it had this feature, it was lost to me, so just go with it and share in my excitement.
With the Eris, it is SUPER easy to put someone on hold and then call another person. There is a little phone icon on the bottom right of the dialer, with a plus logo on it. you click that and you can add to your call, which puts one person on hold (it shows you their number on hold) and lets you talk to the other person.

When my Droid2 auto locks (after 10 minutes) I can receive but not place any calls with my bluetooth. Not handy while driving ... have to press the un-sleep button, then swipe the screen lock, then draw the pattern lock, then I can give a voice command.

I have had my Eris since Jan. I am on my 3rd replacement and 2nd in 3 weeks. My first one VZW just kept making excuses and wanting to do factory resets and delete apps because in their words that was the problem. The tech guy on the phone told me that they could only replace it with another eris again so here I sit with another POS that continues to lock up. I have been unable to make calls 80% of the time. What a joke On average I have to remove my battery 3-4 times a day to get it to work.

If I look at a received, placed, or missed call for today, it will show the time of such call. However, anything older than today it just shows "yesterday" or February, 13th, etc. with no time. Where can I find out the time of yesterday's calls?

I have an issue with switching between two calls.
You know the screen that shows one call on hold and the other call as active? Say I click on the call that's holding because the first call hung up. My problem is that the first call still shows as holding.
If I simply end the first call, the phone will end ALL calls, and I think this is bad design: the call you're on should be disconnected and the call waiting should become active by default, if you hang up on the first call.
How do I switch to the call holding and get rid of the other call (so, I come out of the call waiting screen back to a regular, "in session" screen") that's no longer in session (other end has hung up)? I

Is there a PDF reader (or email app?) I can associate with my email accounts which will allow me to highlight/select phone numbers in the text and call them?

I've been hunting for a solution for days and can't find an answer. I've got an application where I need to place multiple calls in a row. I can invoke the dialer just fine and it starts calling the number. The problem is that after the call is over the call log comes up. I don't want the call log to come up. I want the dialer to return to my application after the call is over. How can I do this?

I have just recently released my free app into the market and was wondering when is a good time to start placing ads in the app? Should I put it straight from the beginning?
I'm thinking maybe when the downloads gets to 5000 but these are numbers I'm pulling out of thin air so I would love for some of you guys to share your experience with placing ads in your app.
When did you place ads in your app? What kind of revenue was/is it making? And any tips for someone that has no idea where to start?

Not sure if this is technically the "silent bug" but calls do not even show up on the phone, they just appear as "missed call from...." no noise no other notification. I restarted phone but it did it again right away. Phone does show the 50% bug in battery info.

I dont remember this in 1.5 but when I place a call and it connects, the phone vibrates. Checked all settings I could think of and all vibrate is disabled and it still does it. Is this a bug? Or am I missing where to turn this off.

Hey I think this was covered in a Hero forum but there was no good answer. Does anybody know why Handcent decides to not show facebook pictures from time to time?

I can see two sides of this. By placing apps on the SD card you free up memory so your phone runs faster and smoother. BUT! I know that different cards read and write at different speeds. SO, in theory, you could slow down how fast your apps run by placing them on an SD card. Is this the case? Or does the card run fast enough that you are only seeing improved performance.

I looked around and really cont find an answer to this... I love 2.1 but now my phone barely works to make calls. I can make a call, but then if I try to make another, the phone will just go black. The other person says they can hear me, but I hear nothing. Is there a fix other than shutting off the phone after every call?

This happened a few times today. Please help. The phone rings, normally it comes out of sleep mode and I can press the "answer" button and I am set to talk. Lately, the phone rings and remains dark, and I don't know how to answer the call.

My first intention is to make a minute counter application. I tried to use a PhoneStateListener but it does not provide enough information to count the time of the outbound calls. The state of the phone does not change when my outbound call is took. Some idea of how to make it ?

During calls my screen times out and goes black after the set amount of seconds (can't remember what mine is set to), but i just wanna know if there is a way of keeping the screen from timing out for the duration of the call, thus making it easier to end the call without having to turn on and unlock the screen?

Google Voice runs flawlessly on my Droid. I recently purchased a Droid Eris for my wife, and while Google Voice SMS and inbound calling works fine, outbound calling does not. I notice that Google's "bridging number" used to connect me with the recipient on the Eris is different than the one used by my Droid. When dialing on my Droid, the call is routed through (518) 314-9466, while the problematic Eris is using (609) 987-0466. My wife's GV number is a (908) number which is probably why she is being routed through a (609) bridging number, both being South Jersey Area codes.
Does anyone think this is the problem? If so, is there a way to adjust which bridging number through which outbound calls are connnected. Has anyone else suffered this issue? We are really concerned as Google Voice integration was the primary reason for purchasing this phone. I thought to add that (i) I am using version 0.2.8 in all instances, (ii) the Eris has been updated with the recent OTA update from Verizon (though I didn't have a chance to use Google Voice beforehand to to determine if this is a post-update issue or not) and (iii) I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app from the market multiple times in hopes of rectifying this issue.

Today i was driving and using the navigation (not google maps, the actual turn by turn navigation) and i received a call but the screen just went black and i couldnt answer or decline it. So i tried to call the person back and it would not dial. Also tried it later on in the day to make sure it wasnt a signal problem but no such luck. I cannot receive or make calls while using turn by turn navi. Anybody else have this problem?

First off I want to say that I really like my new Eris but.... Coming from a BB there seems to be a problem that could make or break the deal. I frequently enter phone numbers as a note in outlook calendar (temporary contact thing), with the BB I could pull up the calendar and make a call from the number within, but that doesn't seem to be the case with the Eris, I've tried everything, does anybody have any suggestions.

So I've noticed some background hiss during voice calls on my Eris. I thought the update would fix it, but so far it hasn't done a thing.
Has anyone had this happen with their phone? I'm thinking of just exchanging it for a new one...

For quite a while now, people have been saying how long it takes for me to answer my phone, even though it's usually on my desk and I get there after a couple of rings.
So today I tested it out. I rang my mobile number from my landline, it connected and started ringing, but it got to about six rings before the LED on my mobile started flashing and a further two rings until it started ringing!
I'm on T-Mobile, but it seems to connect OK, just take a while to register on my phone. Obviously this isn't the end of the world, but I use my mobile for business and it doesn't make me look very good!

I have an issue where occasionally a call will go straight to my voicemail without ringing or otherwise notifying until there suddenly appears a voicemail. And I don't think it even shows up as a missed call. Anyone else have this happen or know what the cause may be? My phone is set to ring & vibrate, and is usually just sitting there asleep. I'm not on another call or otherwise using it. But I can test call it right after and it's fine. Frustrating.

Looking for an app that will allow me to make VoiP calls via WiFi, while out of the country. Can't use Skype cause Verizon shuts off WiFi with it. Will Fring do what I want?

My girlfriend has an HTC Eris and here lately she's been having an issue answering phone calls. This doesn't happen every time but does happen a lot - she'll get a call and will press answer on the phones screen and she then hears nothing. The person that's calling her doesn't hear her picking up, in fact with the tests we've done with my phone and a friends phone is that on the callers end it just keeps ringing as if she never picked up.
She picks up she hears nothing, the caller on the other hand just hears the phone keep ringing. Any idea's what's causing this? She's not running any custom ROMs, in fact it's a stock phone up til about 2 days ago when I did root the phone - however she had this problem prior to that as well.
