How to stop my screen from turning on when receiving/ending a call - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't mind my screen turning on when I'm holding the phone. But it's a problem when I'm using my bluetooth headset. I can answer/end/call/etc all from the buttons on my headset. I don't want to have to interact with my phone when I want to be hands-free.
The problem is that my phone will "wake up" when I receive a call or when the call ends. If it's in my pocket, sometimes it will start going "BEEP BEEP BEEP" as numbers are dialed or apps are changed or the mute button gets activated, etc. So when I receive a call on my headset I have to also remove it from my pocket and turn the screen off. The same thing goes when I end a call from my headset.
How can I stop my device from notifying me by turning on the screen when I have my bluetooth headset connected? Honestly, I wouldn't mind a solution which works without the headset as well. I am fine with the auditory notification of a call. I don't need the hassle of also dealing with the screen unless I want to answer a call. For example, I want to ignore a call-- so I have to both hit the volume down to silence it as well as turn the screen off.

Bluetooth Sound routing bug? Please test for me

With Bluetooth on and paired/ connected to a headset (I use a Jambox in my case).
If the phone is muted or set to vibrate only, then no problem.
But if the phone has Sound On (ringtone comes on with a call), I answer the call and the call does not go to the earphone speaker on the phone or the Jambox but to the phone speaker instead.
Pressing the Speaker or the Headset icons during the call does nothing.
I can also hang up the call from the Jambox. So it has the call but not the sound.
I can hear hissing turning on and off on the Jambox as I press the Headset icon, as if it is attempting to send audio over but it stays with the phone.
Muting the phone or setting it to vibrate cures the problem. So does turning off Bluetooth. Restarting the phone does not help.
Can anyone please replicate?

Phone turns on "Bluetooth Headset" in Car which effectively mutes you.

Tried to cram as much info into the title as possible.
My mom's phone will turn on the bottom right option (during a call) called Bluetooth Headset when she makes and receives calls in her car. When this setting is on, she is effectively muted, and no one can hear her, but if she turns the option off, then the car's mic picks her voice up as usual.
This only started happening to her a few days ago and I couldn't find any option that she may have clicked to cause this. Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance.

can't hear Whatsapp audio messages without speakers

My phone is a ZTE Axon 7. If I play a WhatsApp audio message, it starts playing with phone speakers. when I put the phone near the ear, the screen goes black (as it should be, like a normal phone call) but I cannot hear anything. I tried to press the vol+ hardware button, it changes the call volume, but even at max volume I still cannot hear anything. Do you know how can I fix this?

phone makes a phantom call (fake call) on Bluetooth after hanging u

Every time I make or receive a call on Bluetooth in my car or headset, the phone makes a phantom call (fake call) after hanging up, and when that happens no media can be played, the only solution is to hang up the fake call from the car or to switch off and on the Bluetooth on my phone again.
I tried resetting Bluetooth I checked if I installed any new applications but I couldn't find anything.
