Today, made a phone call, and about 30 seconds in, it went on mute automatically. Thought nothing of it because I have fat cheeks, and could have hit the screen. No big deal, only cut off my credit card number to pay for things.
Then took a call less than 5 minutes later to confirm my order, and it did the same auto mute shenanigans on that call, too.
Anybody else notice this?

Several times when I have received a phone call, I try to answer it, and the ringing stops, and the caller is sent to voicemail.
I don't think I'm doing it wrong, slide down bar to answer call etc. A friend said it was ringing at his end for about 40 seconds, but i only heard it for about 5?! There have been times where I see my phone light up as a call is coming in, but it doesn't ring, and I can't answer the call. I'm expecting some important calls, and don't want to not answer them.
Could it be that the processor is being overwhelmed, and not allowing me to answer/phone not ring. Or is it a fault with the phone, or me?!
1) I have had similar problems.
2) If you do hear or see it ringing, swiping down on the lower 1/4 of the screen seems to work for me. That is, if I swipe down like I normally do to unlock the screen, it won't answer the call. If I swipe down only on the bottom portion of the screen it works ok.
similar problem here. I wonder if you swipe too big, does it pull the lock screen down, and bump the ignore/send to vmail button somehow. not sure why, but its happening to me and it sucks! missed the last 3 calls today bc of it. makes it hard to run a business thats for sure!
I use a phone service that diverts calls simultaneously to my landline and mobile and my landline often gets 2 or 3 rings in before the Hero's trackball starts to flash (although once yesterday they did both manage to ring at nearly the same time). Some of the delay is the mobile network finding the phone, but the phone does seem to take a long time to respond to the incoming call.
One option is to extend the length of time before calls are diverted to voicemail. At http://www.cellular.co.za/gsm_hash_code.htm is a list of GSM Network Codes, which includes, towards the bottom, one for extending the period before calls go to voicemail. It looks like the maximum is 30 seconds. I don't know if there is an equivalent for non-GSM networks.
Hi!
Long intro to give you a picture of what I mean (scroll down to red text for question):
I've been noticing how many minutes I was calling lately with my vodafone plan, so I decided to take a closer look at my use. Turns out most of my minutes/units are 00:01 minute "calls". The thing is that I'm getting charged for a full minute (it's rounded up to the nearest minute, so 00:01 minute = 01:00 minute) when I call.
The same thing goes for voicemail. If I want to call someone and they don't answer their phone, I get their voicemail. As soon as I hear the first words of the voicemail I hang up...unfortunately this already costs me 1 minute.
Now for my question:
Is there a way/app to make MY phone hang up before I get THEIR voicemail?
Thanks!
Why not just count the number of rings before their voice mail picks up and hang up before you reach that number. If they're on a cell phone, they'll see it as a missed call and call you back.
Because every provider (or maybe even every phone) has a different number of beeps:S
Been running MIUI for a while now but not made any calls. I phoned my girlfriend but found that when I pressed end call, it would go grey and say ending call as normal. But it wouldnt. It just sits there, if I press home it tells me the call is going. To the person on the other end the call would still be going on.
To be fair if they hang up, it ends but sometimes it causes problems as it did when I rang my local takeaway, couldn't disconnect and was stuck. Had to reboot phone.
It does it every single time without fail. But apart from that, the rom is perfect. Using the latest rom.
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.
Can anyone help?
Got an Asus Zenfone 2 recently. When calling the screen goes black. Also when I answer incoming calls the same.
I've checked the settings and there is an option for no background on calls, though this has not been selected. I have tried it with it selected as well and it's still the same.
Problem is that I have no easy way of ending a call. If I press the power button during a call the screen flashes on for a fraction of a second. But I cannot hang up a call. I rely on the other person on the call hanging up properly. If they don't hang up or the call goes to voicemail my only option is to reboot the phone.
Very inconvenient. Help!
Thanks
