tired now, phone NEVER rings??? why? - Desire General

my phone just never rings, im so sick of people asking me why im always on voice mail, ive been with htc desire for so long and had many roms, just feel its getting worse and worse.
I am using the latest 2.5 gv rom and have tried several radios, i just get the same problem constantly, sat there, phone pops up a message X person called but left no message, my phone just never rings
any advise please?

You have the problem with other ROMs or just GV2.5?

what about the stock one?
is there a chance its the signal that's poop not the phone/radio?

didnt really wanna go back to a sense based rom, I am sure its always done this a little but not as much as now, I do think its got worse since using gv if anything, but so many roms to choose from and didnt wanna have to wipe my sd card to go to another.
I guess its easier than a new phone, my work bb just never fails, so its tempting to just get another one of them tired of this problem now.
can the actual rom cause this to happen? not just the radio? signal is ok in my area.

U don't have to wipe ur sd card to change rom

no i know but quite often the way a2sd and stuff all works it requires messing about and can get messy, like some of the roms i looked at were different size ext partitions and so on also.
What roms and radios are you guys using with a reliable phone service? ie not many dropped calls?
thanks

not had any issues with 3.06.405.2 with 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08

32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08 is what i am using, as you posted, just phoned the htc from my bb, straight to voice mail then a text comes through instantly...
which rom are you using?

any suggestions? or just get a new phone! cos thats where its heading, i think the motorola atrix is looking good for an upgrade, just flash old rom onto desire and sell!

I think you should contact your operator, isn't a problem with rom and radio
When someone call you, the phone have to receive the call
So, or ur desire have some fault, or the simcard/ur line/ur operator have a problem..
Did you tried to understand when it doesn't ring? Try to understand, why it not get the call in that moment
Anyway you can call ur service operator and say that sometimes the call u receive go directly to the voice mail..They can check something on the line i think..

missed calls & sms ... suddenly!!!

hi,
from time to time I experience the folowing:
Suddenly, soemone call me to other phone becuase he's trying to contact me. I see my artemis and it's OK, switched on and signal bars at 90%. I dont know why when someone try to call me appears like the phone is switched off.
I make a soft reset and strat to receive missed calls + sms's.
I have Vanilla 4.02 ROM and I use very often the wifi connection....
br.
im with you there, this is the reason why i went back to my aging nokia 6280. ive tried about 10 different roms and it would never pick up the signal unless rebooted. what happens with mine and a few of my friends was on london underground you would lose the signal obviously underground, when you came out the phone would pick up the signal but never recieve a call or sms. also the gprs wouldnt connect unless it was rebooted. ive had a few htcs in the past but because of this poor show i wont ever purchase another one.
my phone done this from day one of ownership, tmobile told me that firmware upgrades would fix this annoying problem, but it never did.
maybe you should try updating your radio ROMs
flashing different ROMs wont help
done half a dozen of them as well on my phone.

Even, I had the same problem, but since I moved to Radio version 3.21.XX, everything is just fine, no problems since then. Even 3.24.XX is out now, you should definitely give it a try. Hope it works for you!!
Cheers!
Same problem
Thanks for posting. I have the same problem with the same ROM. I'll change radio rom.
Radio Rom changed
Radio Rom changed 3.34.90 . No problems and good quality

Missing phone Calls & Texts

I'm unable to receive texts or phone calls. Making calls and using the internet works fine. What can be going on? I've tried calling tech support twice. They reset my phone on the network, but that never really worked. This led them to believe that it has to be a problem with my phone internally. Sometimes, my fine will work randomly. Then I will notice I haven't received a text in awhile, so Ill send myself a text and realize my phone isn't working right again.
One odd thing I noticed is that when I'm on a call, I am able to receive texts. WTF? I tried going to Sprint today and they said my phone passed the "post tests", and since I don't have the insurance plan there is nothing they can really do.
I'm on the stock rom now and I've hard reset plenty.
There has to be some way to fix my phone. Thanks in advance.
Have you tried re flashing the stock rom , there is a update rom out for you phone..btw you do not need to unlock the phone to flash a stock factory rom..go to HTC.com and find your phone and then downloads
http://www.htc.com/us/support
You consider a rom from March an update? I was already on that update. Ill just get another phone.
Well i figured the phone was out of the warranty period when the store said they could not help you..yea i seen you do not have insurance , so with that in mind , i would have thought that the Rom update would be much newer then the current one on the phone....to me it would be worth a shot to try it and see what happens..
But you know better i guess, sorry to try and help you out..
Btw you only stated that you have hard rest, nothing about you have done a Rom update already..sheesh
Thanks for your help. I just went to that site thinking there was something new. Yah, I had to flash back to stock b4 bringing the phone in.

Not receiving calls?

Before I get n00b bashed, I did "Search this thread" for the answer... (and other forums) Maybe I am just too n00b? Anyway, here goes.
Given kudos on this ROM already (Syndicate Rom: Frozen...anything is better than stock Froyo, but this is just AMAZING). But I was having some troubles with receiving incoming calls. Caller always got "All circuits busy" Or "cannot complete call as dialed".
Soooo, I wiped and reflashed. Tried to make a call (before restoring titanium backups) it worked, but my girl was still having troubles calling me...
So I restored most of my titanium backup (stuff that mattered?) and when trying to call out, I get "com.android.phone stopped working" and had to forcibly close it. So, I specifically restored phone 1.0 and contacts and all that from my titanium Backup, and still got the same issue. I am currently backing up stuff to my computer off the phone, going to format the card and do a fresh flash and see if that helps.
Thing to note, my account IS linked with Google Voice. Could that be an issue? And if not, is anyone else having this issue? Seriously the ONLY problem I am having with this rom. Thanks, guys!
Edit. Wipe and reflash did not help, however the phone is running MUCH better! Still not getting phone calls, though. Data works, MMS, etc, spotty 3G acceptance, though. Starting to get a bit aggravating. ANY help would be GRAND.
*sigh* think I got it. Flashed a different modem (EC03?) and it did not work, then flashed BACK to EC05 (AFTER the fresh flash) and it seems to have rectified the issue. HUGE thanks to QBKING77 (if that is his name on here) for the AWESOME video tuts and great linking to the site. I will update if call status changes. But I would still be interested in knowing if anyone else was having the same issues?
Sorry no one ever got to you for help. The Q&A section doesn't exactly have dedicatedhelpers. =/
I'll be trying to help this section more. So please do update if it comes again.

No worries. My girl and I gave it another go this morning, and all went well. Also received all my calld last night with no issue. Definitely made my girl a happy camper. Lol. Now I just have to calibrate my battery when I get to work, and all will be golden!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
the only thing I could think of is did you "freeze" any apps in titanium LOL yes I froze the wrong thing once and got the same error's I think it was the voice mail stuff seeing i went to gvoice didn't think I needed it but I did.
Nope. All apps were left unfrozen, just because I am too n00b for that chit, lol.
However, I flashed the EC05, and all incoming calls (90%) seem to be coming to me. Odd part is, it SHOULD be going to my voicemail if it cannot be dialed. I am thinkin Sprint is to blame, and I need to have it out with them.
*sigh*
Oh well, everything else is tits... Just waiting EAGERLY for 1.2... Chompin at the bit and all that!
Might get bored tonight and flash back to stock... see if I have the same problem.
Question. Let's say I want to "image" my phone the way it is right now (kinda like Norton Ghost used to do?) Flash back to stock, yadda yadda... Is there a way to RESTORE my phone as is (every byte) back with clockwork? Or is that what Nandroid does? Because if I flash back to Stock, play for a bit (see if it is sprint's fault) and want to flash back, I will have to reconvert back to EXT4... using clockwork 3.0, should I just use the .zip (.img?) that nandroid creates instead of the base ROM?
If any of that makes sense, kudos will be given for a clear answer, lol
just loaded Emerald Envy 2.0....
Absolutely love the ROM, but I can no longer receive calls. I've tried the wipe (x3), re-downloaded the ROM, no joy. no combination that I can think of. Have tried all the latest modems (EC05/EF02), no joy.
I did notice that the phone log does log that a call was received, but it never rings or brings up the phone application.
I also tried flashing the Genocide 1.1 kernal. no joy.
I'm about to go back to my Midnight ROM that I Nandroid'd earlier today before I started down this road. Really hope I don't have to, i'm hooked on this ROM!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My errors seem to be different than yours. Mine would not show up in my call log at all, nor would the calls go to voicemail. Are your callers able to leave messages?
Mine turned out to be a sprint/phone issue. Their networks have been all kinds of crappy in my area since january. Sucks, but all I could do was call, complain, and get credits.
My new epic seems to be working fine, and sprint seems to have fixed their issues in my area. I was running 1.2 up until last night with no issues callin/receiving. I only updated to the latest GB leak because it is hella stable and netflix works. Just seems to have some 3d issues. But I do not game much on here.
Keep troubleshooting, and give 1.2 a whirl. While your problem is not ROM related, I am very confident your experience (and battery) will be much better.
Oh. And call Sprint. Complain and whine. You will get credit on your bill. Lol.

[Q] No data and no calls

Randomly I have not been able to text, make calls or get a data connection with my phone. I was running CM 7.0.3 when this all of a sudden started. Restarting my phone would allow me to make calls and get a data connection for a few minutes and then I would not be able to do either. I flashed the newest CM7 nightly build and a new radio, Vision_Radio_12.57.60.25_26.10.04.12. The same problem continued so I flashed Virtuous 2.0.0 but that made no difference.
Anyone have any idea of what I can do to fix this?
Thanks.
I'd say try flashing a different ROM. But since you've fresh flashed the same ROM I'd say that pretty much counts.
Next I'd call the carrier and confirm that you SIM/account is in good standing, and that the towers are working properly in your area. I've had the freakout about "omg my phone is jacked up" and after flashing all kinds of ROMs, radios, etc. I just called T-mobile and they confirm that there was just a network problem in my area.
ur doing a full wipe right?

I actually did flash a different ROM and the issue continued. I'll be contacting Bell to see if maybe it's a service issue.

If you contact bell they'll know that you rooted your phone and they will have less sympathy to help you fix it.

How? Do like I did and google the right build number for your device because they will ask, and you don't want to get caught saying 'GRJ***'

This.
i tell my carrier straight up that im rooted...they dont say anything...but im not calling tech support either
If the OP is just calling to see if their have been any reported service outages or interruptions in his area, whether he is rooted or not shouldn't matter.
A couple times in the past few years, I've had instances where I lost both data and voice service for up to a couple hours at a time, over the course of several days. Then the problem just goes away. This seems to fairly typical, if they are upgrading or repairing your local tower.
If the OP has tried flashing various ROMs, and tried a new radio, I'd be inclined to say the ROM is not the problem. If the problem persists, you may ask your carrier to send a new SIM (or go to their store and ask for one).
hi,
you are not alone!
i have this problem with OE HTC 2.3.3 stock rom! (unrooted original device from Nov. 2010)
so i had very bad mobile connection and after ~1day (without reboot) i can't phone with it.. mobile network only "x" but data connection is fixed to gprs.
very strange!
so i send my phone back and orderd new one.
i think this is was hardware problem.
short:
- reboot bringt full funktion but the mobile connection is not so good as 4month ago (same point).. 4month ago it was "H" and now only gprs
after many hours >8h. calls didn't work, the phone said "no provider"... (x)..
- the strange thing is that data connection is degrade to gprs
this problem exist from the last 2 HTC OTA updates. but onyl the last 2.3.3 makes it really unusable
i hope this problem don't come back with the new desire z now rootet with cm 7.10 rc1 (what a feeling)

Major Problem. Cant hear people on the phone

Hello there. I have a major problem which is makeing me consider going back to stock. When someone calls me or I call someone the call connects but I cannot hear the person on the line and they cannot hear me. I do not have this problem when I use Csipsimple to make voip calls. Its only when I use the actuall line. I am useing P.A.Cman True All in 1 ROM with the UVLI1 radio. Can someone please help me. This is a major game breaking feature. I have tried two differnt roms and a differnt radio. It will work intermittently for a bit but then stop. Some times a reboot will work. Some times it wont. Please help before I buy a different phone
I've had that issue before and its annoying. ROM related or maybe just how u flashed it. I would reflash with a clean wipe if u insist on sticking with that ROM. If not then I would recommend using slim star 2.2 ROM. That I can guarantee will not have this problem. If perhaps u still do however, then I would have to say you have a bigger problem....hardware even perhaps....but I highly doubt it...
So yeah try slimstar2.2 just to troubleshoot then go back if you want and ull see if its just the ROM. I'm not advocating slimstar over PAC allinone I'm just picking it cuz its what I have now and I can confirm u won't have that issue. Good luck

Had this problem on most Roms with a bunch of different radios. Thought it might be a hardware problem. I flashed the new UVLI4 and not only am I receiving calls where I never received them before but I'm not getting my 2 phone calls a day with no one on the other end. Only about 4 days into it, but no empty phone calls yet. Actually took me 2 days to realize it, kinda nice.
I've had a similar problem intermittently on several ROMs. My first suggestion is to reflash the radio - often this will fix the issue. If that doesn't work, you can contact tmo customer service and have them reset your phone on the network by "purging your HLR or BLR on the network (source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35585027), That's worked for me also. hope that helps.
