HTC Droid Eris :: Incoming Calls Freeze The Phone - Bluetooth Disconnects Often

Sep 12, 2010

Hi all, I've owned an HTC Eris since January and have been pleased overall until I upgraded to 2.1 a couple months ago. That's where the real issues became more rampant. I've stumped most of the kids at Verizon, have wiped the phone a couple times, and even was given a whole new phone once.

This post isn't intended to be some whiny rant because I really want to see if there are any resolutions aside from getting a different phone. This list is extensive and obviously I wouldn't be posting if I wasn't concerned. Any help/feedback is appreciated. Thank you!!!!!

1. Some incoming calls freeze the phone. It is any one caller, just random. Phone will just ring uncontrollably and the screen just goes black. It will continue doing this until you pull the battery. Sometimes a force close message appears but you can't clear it. No buttons work.

2. If send text, then happen to turn the phone will it's sending, it force closes. At least the text still sends, but it's just lame.

3. Laggy response and/or need to push a button several times to get it to respond. I don't have a screen cover.

4.The default action on some favorites resets. Many times when I select a favorite to call, the phone asks me which default action I want to set. Hello, that's why I chose a default action in the first place!

5. Can't play more than 2 songs in a row on either Pandora or Slacker without phone crashing and reseting to home screen.

6. Bluetooth disconnects often. Sometimes takes a while to re-connect.

7. If I get a text while browsing the internet, it freezes that page and displays a "server cannot connect" error. I can go back to previous page and stay connected to internet, so that' ok. But I cannot navigate back to the original page I was on without getting the same error message. I need to close the bowser, and re-open to get back to that page.

HTC Droid Eris :: Phone Ringer For Missed Incoming Calls

Mar 3, 2010

On a number of occasions, I've missed incoming calls that I never heard ring. This has happened even when the ringer volume is turned all the way up (it's much too easy to inadvertently lower the ringer volume, but that's another story). Yeah, I know - I live in New York City, where it's easy to not hear a phone ring, but I've missed calls even when I'm in a totally quiet room. Just now, I was sitting with the phone on the table in front of me, and it started lighting up with an incoming call, but the ringer made no sound. I checked and the ringer was up 3/4 of the way, so it should have been ringing.

HTC Magic :: Incoming Calls Not Automatically Put Through Bluetooth?

May 6, 2009

When I get in my car my phone pairs with my Parrot so I can make and receive calls without using my phone. My HTC Magic pairs with the device fine (it does take 5 mins or so to sync fully) and I am able to see my contact list and make calls from it without any problems. It puts the audio and the microphone through the Parrot system and its fine. The problem occurs when I receive a call unfortunately. The Parrot system realizes I have an incoming call and cuts out my radio / cd in the car and rings as it should do.

Unfortunately my phone also rings and when I accept the call (on either the phone or the parrot) it doesn't automatically put the call through the parrot. I have to use the phone and manually set the call to go through the bluetooth, which as you can appreciate is a bit fiddly whilst trying to drive. I've had a look round for an app that sorts this, and checked the bluetooth settings on the phone but I've not been able to find anything as of yet that will solve the problem.

HTC Droid Eris :: Block Unknown Callers Incoming Calls?

May 28, 2010

Has anyone found any good call blockers to prevent unknown callers from junking up your voicemail? I've heard about GBlock and aFirewall but they're not complete solutions. looking for something that shuts down an unwanted caller with NO voicemail option. Even better - an app where you put in the numbers you wish to accept and have anyone else who calls in get rejected instead of having to enter numbers you want to have blocked.

HTC Droid Eris :: 2.1 Update / Vibrate Alert For Incoming Message During Calls

May 15, 2010

I recently updated my eris to 2.1 and I really like it. The main thing that is currently annoying me with it is that when I am on a call, it still vibrates when I receive a text message. I like that it vibrates when I receive texts just not while I'm on the phone. How do I change this 'Phone Only' preference? 1.5 always just had a little beep or sound for the notifier never vibrated?

Motorola Droid :: Contact List - Identifying Incoming Phone Calls

Nov 11, 2009

So I have something like 470 people in my Google Contacts under "All Contacts" and only about 60 under "My Contacts." I like it that way, because then my Droid contact list isn't full to the brim with people whose numbers I really don't need at the touch of my fingertips. That being said, however, it would be very cool if somehow the "All Contacts" section of my Google Contacts could be used to identify incoming phone calls.

For instance:
I want my Brother's phone number in My Contacts so I can call him.
I don't want my ex girlfriend's Stacey's number in My Contacts because I don't need to call her.
I still have my ex-girlfiend's contact info under "All Contacts" because there's no reason to delete it outright.
I would, however, like for my Droid's caller ID to tell me that the person calling me is "Stacey" instead of "unknown caller."

Am I asking too much? I know I could just add everyone to "My Contacts" and that would work, I just don't necessarily want 500 people in my Droid phone book. It's unnecessary. Or even apps that do this?

Motorola Droid 2 :: Placing Bluetooth Calls When Phone Is Locked

Nov 19, 2010

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.

HTC EVO 4G :: Fresh 3.3.0.1 - Bluetooth Disconnects

Oct 19, 2010

Just last week I changed from CM6 to Fresh 3.3.0.1

Reason being I started having random lockups, the screening staying black upon "waking up" with only the notification bar showing at the top, and half of the screen disappearing in landscape mode.

I was, shall we say, less than impressed by CM6, so I figured I would try something new.

Now, I am having a new problem. Upon entering my car, the bluetooth will connect, then after about 15 seconds will disconnect. If I go into "Devices", the car kit will say Paired but not connected. If I click it, it will not connect.

I never had this problem with the stock ROM, Unrevoked, CM6, or another ROM I had that I forget at the moment. Fresh 3.3.0.1 is the first time.

I LOVE the battery life compared to CM6, but I need my bluetooth to work.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 :: Contacts Do Not Appear On Incoming Calls For Phone / Fix It?

Oct 6, 2010

Whenever I receive incoming calls, the caller, and even the phone number, doesn't appear to me, that is, the caller always appears as unknown. This means that I don't know who my missed calls are from if they don't get to voicemail. This isn't because of privacy settings on the other phones, I know, because some of the people have public numbers. Does anyone know what's causing this? And if you do, is there a way that I can fix it?

General :: Incoming Calls / Text Not Matched To Phone Book?

Nov 21, 2013

I've got this issue where incoming calls and texts are not matching to the contacts database when the international format is used (so incoming 01202 123456 matches if the number is stored in the phone book as 01202 123456 but not if it's +441202 123456)

Seems it's quite common with ROMs / Phones from China.

My phone is a Cube 5H A5300 (a remarkably good bit of kit for the money if I could fix this dam issue) , Android 4.2.1, and MIUI 3.11.15. I don't think this is a MIUI issue hence posting here. :-

Changing the MIN_MATCH in framework.jar and MMS.apk, and checking that strict comparison if odd from here http:

So I'm at a lost to know where to go next. where number matching is handled in Android? Where can I look for places to check ?

HTC EVO 4G :: Bluetooth Headset Disconnects On Its Own Then Reconnects

Jun 6, 2010

So I got a new Evo on friday and it is my first experience with android and I am loving it so far! The only problem I am really having is keeping my bluetooth headset paired with the device.
I have a plantronics explorer 230 and it is the only bluetooth thing I have. It continually disconnects and reconnects from the device at random even when I am on calls. I am not very techy so I really have no idea what to do. It disconnects on its own and then reconnects again a few seconds later.

HTC Desire :: Bluetooth Randomly Disconnects

Jun 6, 2010

I've got a Jabra Stone, and a Nokia BH-606 which both randomly disconnect whilst I'm on a phonecall or listening to a podcast etc. Sometimes they can go for 30 minutes being perfectly well behaved, or just as often do their stupid disconnecting trick about 5 times in 2 minutes.

Is this a common problem? It would possibly seem not because there doesn't seem to be a huge amount of people with similar issues on the internets.

I know both headsets are ok because they have both worked perfectly with an iPhone and a Nokia N86.

Do we think my Desire is faulty, and I should take it back?

HTC Eris :: Phone Or Battery - Either Freeze When Screen Was Off

Nov 27, 2010

Not sure which it is, and the answer will lead me towards either a new, better phone, or just a new battery.

I got my Eris a little over a year ago, so it's out of warranty, and it always had the occasional problem where it would either freeze when the screen was off, so I'd have to do a battery pull, or I'd take it out of my pocket to find that it was restarting.

It went through a few phases where it did both of those things a handful of times per day, then it stopped for a while, then started, then stopped.

Just recently, it's picked up again, and this is about 2 months after I rooted the phone, and until now, it's been great rooted. I've only really noticed this again though since I switched from KaosFroyo to CelebFroyo, but again, I also had these problems BEFORE I rooted too.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 :: Delay Answering Incoming Phone Calls?

Aug 23, 2010

I recently bought this phone from Rogers (I still have a week to test this thing out to make sure it's not broken) I'm noticing that answering incoming calls can sometimes take up to 20 seconds before the other side can hear me! I can make calls and people can hear me as soon as the call begins but I'm answering the phone after it has shut itself down (I mean the screen goes dark and then I need to slide the slider on the screen to answer the call) SOMETIMES there will be a few seconds delay, sometimes nothing but I've had up to 20 seconds delay on multiple occasions I'm running 1.6, and from the sounds of it, we won't get 2.1 until next month but is ANYONE else getting these issues? Should I return this phone for another? This is inexcusable and I am having too many callers hang up the phone on me because they think they have a bad connection but in reality there is a delay before they can hear me.

When the Bluetooth is on and I am near my laptop, incoming calls are connected without the phone being touched. I have seen a few comments about this in other threads, so it is not just me and this is the 3rd replacement phone, so it is not just a one-off fault.

Advice and guidance please?

Motorola Droid :: Incoming Calls Not Working

Feb 11, 2010

I just got my Droid yesterday and all of the sudden about two hours ago my girlfriend said she tried calling me for the last 40 min and my phone would ring once and go to voicemail. Earlier in the day i called Verizon to cancel my Visual Voicemail and after the rep did that for me he told me to dial *228 and select option 2 to update my roaming features....so I did.

Since then my girlfriend had the issue of her calls going to voicemail and my phone not even ringing. Can *228 cause this issue? Is this a common problem? I called Verizon back and the rep told me to dial *228 and hit option 1 to reprogram my phone. I did it and tried calling my phone from my other line and it is working fine. I can make calls no problem too. I calle my Droid about 15 times and everytime it went through. Is it possible for a specific person's phone to have an issue getting through to another phone?

Motorola Droid :: Incoming / Outgoing Calls Are Silent

About once a week I need to do a battery pull on my DROID because both incoming and outgoing calls are silent. I'm not sure if the caller on the other end can hear me or not.In the meantime, I've switched my vocoder options back to the factory default to see if maybe that helps. Really, it's a shot in the dark, but it's a start.
