[Q] [ICS] Cannot answer call - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all
After getting the update to ICS I have experienced this twice:
My phone starts ringing with a very loud ringtone (louder than I think I left it) and I cannot answer it.
The phone doesn't lock or anything, but there just isn't any option to answer the call. It just behaves as if it wasn't ringing.
The first time it was in my pocket when it started and I turned the phone off to make it stop.
The second time I was writing a text and I just turned the volume down, and eventually it stopped.
The calls doesn't show up in the logs, and I haven't been able to find out who was calling, so in reality I don't know if someone was actually calling or if the phone just decided to suddenly play the ringtone out loud.
Anybody else experienced this?

I don't think this does what you want though. Doesn't it stop when you press ignore? I can't think of it right now. Maybe you just want any button to do this, but then you couldn't answer. Maybe explain this one more.
I think hes talking about the same issue im having with my phone. Actually I have two different issues that are somewhat related...First, i think he's talking about the text message ringer. For example...if i set a ringtone to my text messages(songs that is) and i recieve a text message, there is now way to shut the ringer off...it just keeps playing and playing and vibrating and vibrating....the only thing that will make it stop is a power down or soft reset.....whats even weirder is if i recieve a text message while the first message is ringing it plays the ringtone a second time in the background...so not only can i not stop the first one but there a second one that i cant stop either...PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!....now for the second issue....i downloaded mring for my phone and it allows me to stop the problematic ringer from before by pressin any button on my phone (GREAT!!!!!!!!) no, not great...when i set my text messages to ring and vibrate it rings, but no vibration occurs...and if i have it on vibrate only...it doesnt vibrate either....at first i thought it was problem with my phone, but the vibration on telephone calls works fine...it's only text messages...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS!!!!!! if anyone can fix the problem im having with mring that would be great cuz i want to continue using that program seeing as how i purchased the product and now that im having that problem its basically useless...

[q] s2u2 lock during call any solution ?

Hello,
I use every day S2U2: application which I find really successful
I have however a question to subject you:
I use the locking during the calls for questions of security.
When I phone, the device locks itself normally: everything is well.
On the other hand, when my call is ended, I am obliged to unlock my device to hang up.
Is there a means to hang up while the telephone is locked during the calls ?
Naturally I went on the site of S2U2 to read the "FAQ" section and "README" but no answer to my problem.
Also, I sent a message to the technical support; reponse: thank you for postponing you in the "FAQ" rubirque and "README".
Thus today, I wish to know if there is a means to hang up the telephone while this last one is vérouillé during the calls ?
Thank you for your answer
Please use the thread of topic S2U2.
On that note thread closed.

Is there a call filter that will allow calls through if the call calls twice?

I'm currently using Silent Time Lite but it'll only let me allow specified contacts through. I'd like to know if there's another app out there that will allow those contacts and anyone who calls say two or three times in a row through. This way, say if my mom wanted to get a hold of me but her phone is dead, she can pass a filter that will allow a call through if say three attempted calls are made within 2 minutes, it'll flag it as important.
Don't take my word for it but I thiiink you could do it with Tasker.
I've been playing with it nonstop for a few days and I think you could setup a profile that allows for incoming calls to hang up automatically a few times, and then eventually answer normally.
Anyone else with Tasker able to help me out?
i'll have to check out Tasker again. maybe ask on their forums.

[Q] Volume fades during calls

G'day,
New I9300 owner - love that phone.
Posted on Samsung Forum with no responses.
I have call recipients reporting a problem.
My call volume seem to fade at their end - they can't hear me for 6/10 seconds every 30 seconds or so.
I don't have a problem hearing them - they can't hear me.
I have full signal strength.
I've searched the forum with no luck.
Any clues on a fix for this?
regards

[Q] Samsung mega ringing problems

My samsung mega doesn't ring only some time. If it doesn't ring the call will go to voice mail. If the caller hangs up before it goes to voice mail I never know I was called because it doesn't show a missed call in call log. I have read all I can find here and other places. However my problem isn't exactly same as I find. All sound is on and volume is up. I also know this since it does ring some time...
Now on the dialer pad on the # key there is a icon looks kinda like a speaker with a line through it. I can't remove it, what is it. Even though it is there the phone will still ring sometime.
From what I read I might have a software problem. Can I put the KIT-KAT on and perhaps solve the problem
Any help appreciated.
I posted this on the incorrect form a couple days with no answers. Probably because post was wrong forum.
