"Answer" button not picking up calls

xynder · #1 (**permalink**) 10-29-2008, 10:32 PM

I seem to be having an issue with my phone's "answer" button. When I get an incoming call, I have to press the green button several times before it answers. Sometimes it doesn't even pick up unless I press the physical "Call" button on the bottom-left of the phone.

Any ideas?

Try recalibrating your touch screen. Are you having problems with any other screen/touch functions? Also, any third party apps installed?

I am having a major issue with this lately. But in my case it's not just the on screen answer button...I can't even answer the phone with the hard button. It seems to be pretty intermittent...sometimes I can answer my phone others I can't. Anyone else seeing this?

Have you installed any custom apps? I have the Diamond Tweaker installed as well as the Advanced Config app. I also installed the Audio Fix cab.

I had this problem yesterday after making a bunch of changes with Advanced Config. Both my bluetooth and the phone's answer buttons would either not work, or only work after many attempts. I tried to change back everything I could remember without luck. Finally had to give up and hard-reset the phone.

That's what I was thinking I was going to have to do. Was hoping to avoid that though.

Umm there was a topic that dealt with this issue...I can't find it, but basically what it said in a nutshell was that...Advanced Config may have changed a setting in the registry that you should change back.....

The setting is

HKLM>Comm>ConnMgr>Planner>Settings>SuspendResume

If this key has the value of anything other than "#777" then change it back to "#777"

For instance, Advanced Config may have changed that value to "~GPRS" or something similar, if so, change it back to "#777", wait a few minutes (5 or so) then soft reset so the setting sticks, and you're good to go.

I remember some settings related to GPRS. I'll keep that in mind in case it happens again. Hopefully an updated version fixes that.

Ok I tried this and something odd happened.
