Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I have a question about the "FRX07.1_Full_Bundle_20110901". First off I have Rhod400 TP2 with CDMA. I put this build on my phone the other day and tested data and incoming and outgoing calling using my sons phone. All was good.

Except last night a few people called my sons phone trying to get a hold of me, they said they called my phone but was sent to voice mail. I was wondering if anyone else is having problems with this. Could it be that when it is in sleep mode the radio shuts off not letting me receive calls?

I really like this build and would love to go full time on android but if people cant reach me, then Im stuck with WinMoble. Any suggestions.

See detule's post. We're working to get it permanently fixed, thanks.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

Thanks for the quick reply, but not quite sure what he meant by:

"Then, bind mount the "old" RIL in your froyo.user.conf file.


Code:
mount --bind /sdcard/libhtcgeneric-ril.so /system/lib/libhtcgeneric-ril.so

Put it in the CustomCommands section at the bottom of the user.conf file."

Sorry for still being such a newbie, any more help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

Edit the froyo.user.conf file, put that line in the CustomCommands section. What is missing...? What are you not grasping? Sorry if I'm confused, it seems pretty straightforward to me.

froyo.user.conf is in the /conf directory where ever you run haret.exe from.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

ok, I think I might of figured it out, this is what I did:
1. I put the libhtcgeneric-ril.so in the root of my sd card.
2. I went into conf folder and added "mount --bind /sdcard/libhtcgeneric-ril.so /system/lib/libhtcgeneric-ril.so} to the bottom of the froyo.user.conf.

It now looks like this:
# General parameters

renice=1 # Run the renice script to inprove call answering
}
#compcache related parameters
compcache{
compcache_en=1 # enable(1) or disable(0)20 compcache

}

}

mount --bind /sdcard/libhtcgeneric-ril.so /system/lib/libhtcgeneric-ril.so
}


I will test further and see if it made a diference in missing calls. Thanks everyone.

I am sorry I think I got it figured out, just needed more reading, Thanks again for your help.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

Moar reading is never a bad thing. Let me know if you have any more questions, and certainly if it doesn't resolve the missed calls issue... ;).

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

Spoke to soon, I didn't have another phone to test it until now. Looks like it still doesn't work receiving calls. I noticed that my phone goes from 3G to 1X while I try to calling my phone from another phone. I will look more into it tonight.I will take any other sugestions if you have any.
Thanks

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I'd make sure you're running the new RIL posted by detule.

Someone also posted that GV was causing the issue, see here.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

That was it, It was google voice that was messed up, working great ever since. Thanks=D>

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

alright gentleman i am having the same issue...i am not veery tech savy so i dont even know a good place to start...can someone please assit

thanks

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

Well, it seems for some Google Voice is causing an issue...?

If you're using that, perhaps you should reset it. I'm not sure how that works exactly.

Otherwise, I already posted the solution to this.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I do not have any kind of Google Voice integration, and what I was noticing with the stock 7.1 RIL is that on a fresh boot, the phone would invariably ignore calls. Perhaps the GV integration prods the radio into action and masks this deficiency in the RIL. If you find yourself with a similar symptom as the one I described above, following the instructions posted on xda (that arrrghhh referred you to) for bind mounting the custom ril should alleviate those problems (hopefully).

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

Another thing I read is that as soon as you boot into android, that If you make a call to someone, anyone, even your voice mail, then that can also fix problems with incomming, missed calls. Don't know if this fix still valid for this build or not but worth a try.

Mine has been working great now and havn't missed a single call or txt. Good luck to you.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I had the same issue and just installed the latest frx071 zip in the download section yesterday, but once I made an outgoing call I could receive calls and txt msgs. I don't use google voice, but this is seems to only be an issue on initial boot.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

Yes, I also figured that out that an out going call must be placed after initial booting into android. Then I can receive calls and txt. Not a bad trade off, just have to remember to make that first call before I miss any.

Keep up the great work, love my new TP 2 Android.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I also have been missing calls in 7.1 (never missed a call using 7.0, never missed a text in either). I found that if I set WinMo to Airplane mode before booting Android, calls come in fine. This might be easier than placing an out going call.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I had an similar situation happen yesterday.

Phone was working fine for several days/weeks (calls, texts, everything - don't remember the last time I rebooted) then around 5pm I got a barrage of texts from a friend, but I didn't actually get around to reading/responding until 5:30 or so.

The weird thing was that I had no data and trying to toggle in/out of airplane mode did nothing. I found out later that someone also tried to call between 5:00 and 5:30, but it went straight to voice mail.

Nothing seemed to be able to "unstick" the problem, so I power cycled the phone. Once back in to FRX7.1 the text went out almost immediately and data/calls once again worked.

I'm using a Rhod400/CDMA.

Any thoughts/suggestions? Is it worth a shot to try the file linked on XDA?

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

This problem seems to be very random. Sometimes it works all good. Other times it doesn't. The only thing that worked for me was setting WinMo to Airplane mode before booting android. Now I never miss calls.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

My phone has been working great to, been using it for several days without rebooting phone. Tonight I got several txt from a friend. Later I tried to view txt. I wasn't able to open the msg program to read the txt or delete them. The phone kept kicking me out, Also wouldn't let me get into settings. Then phone locked up and did a non stop mini boot.

Tried rebooting into android after resetting my phone but my data file somehow all got corrupted and wont reboot.

I am wondering if somehow the multiply txt messages could be corrupting android somehow. later called friend and found he never sent pic messages or anything big, just short txt.

This is probably in the wrong area to be talking about this and sorry for the long post.

Anyway I love my TP2 Android and thanks to everyone who has made this possible.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

try add "chmod -R 777 /data/data" in froyo.user.conf, then boot to android.
If still, paste log message.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I have the same problem where on a fresh boot, calls cannot be received until after I first make an outgoing call. I added the above to froyo.user.conf but it still didn't seem to fix it.

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

I think the most full proof method is to leave WinMo in Airplane Mode. I know the outgoing call method works, but if you forget to make the call, you'll miss several calls without knowing it. The callers will hear rings instead of going straight to voicemail, so they'll think yr avoiding them and there will be no record of the call. I use Gen Y dualBOOT to boot straight to android, leaving the WM in airplane mode 24/7. I've never missed a call this way.

For what it's worth, I never missed calls with version FRX07, just 7.1

Re: Not receiving calls on FRX07.1
 

works for me. touch pro 2, WnMo 6.0, FRX7.1. for GEN Y DUALBOOT, use WVGA for tp2. thanks.
