Why does it take 5 or so seconds to show who is calling? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Whenever someone calls me I hear my ringtone but my screen is still black for like 3-5 seconds then finally the screen turns on to show me who is calling. It's not really a major issue but it is a little annoying that I have to wait like 5 second to answer the phone lol. Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?? Thanks!

Might have something to do with the mods you have installed - I'm on the stock ROM, with only a few mods (hotspot and camera-sound-off) - don't have this issue. (I also had Xposed+XPrivacy installed till yesterday - didn't have this issue even then)
Did you have this issue from day 1 (before rooting)?

Hmm... you are probably right. It's probably a mod or something I have installed -___- and no I have not had this problem since day 1.

Incoming calls from my GF and she can't hear me?

Hi guys,
I've got a weird issue that seems to be happening only with my girlfriend when she calls me and/or I call her, but mostly when she calls me. Sometimes she will call me and I pick up and I can hear her but she can't hear me. It seems to be only her that is experiencing this, and I'm not hitting the mute key or putting her on hold accidentally or anything of the sort... if I call her back immediately then everything is fine... just wondering if anyone else is experiencing something similar/has a solution?
Thanks in advance!
happens to me on occasion as well
same. i just usually redial.
known issue .. change gf
I have exactly the same intermittent issue when I dial home and speak to my wife - every so often I can hear her and she is unable to hear me.
Hasn't happened with other numbers?
I was very pissed off when that happened to me couple of times..
I'm not sure, but after that i was looking for the "audio settings" and one of the switches was set to 0,.. not sure if that was the case but i hope it was.
Will play some more with that once i get my second nexus
I had the problem where they couldn't hear me, called two numbers to confirm, did a reboot and haven't seen it again.
Lmao! Classic!

surprised to see this. Anyone had it since receiving the OTA update (which I STILL have not received)?

Ha ha ha... she does have an iPhone... hmmm you may be on to something J/K... but yeah I'm hoping maybe the OTA will fix it... I hope
I am having this issue to when I call my mom who is on Verizon, and a few other friends. For me it happens randomly in the call, nothing gets muted or put on hold, I can hear them, but they can't hear me, so it usually ends up in them hanging up cause they thought I hanged up lol. This issue is still present after the OTA update, but I haven't tried it on a custom ROM yet.
ive had this issue w/tmobile in general. ive been using unlocked phones in the past, however. dont know if that makes a difference...used phones like the iphone and htc touch hd. i usually have to redial and its fine but once in a while it will happen. i have the nexus 1 w/stock rom. no OTA update yet.
Hmmmm... I've used unlocked phones on T-Mo's network as well, but this is the first time I've had this problem in areas with 2+ bars of reception... interesting.

serious call waiting issue after new firmware

I think i discovered a huge issue with the new firmware. When i have a second line calling me the screen does not wake up allowing me to switch to the second call. In the past, when a second call comes in the proximity sensor would wake the screen and allow me to take or reject the call. Now i cant even see who is calling. Since i use the phone for business, this is a big, big issue. Anyone else experience this?
Can anyone please check this for me please by calling their voicemail and then dialing their own cell # from another phone please. Thanks
you're right. phone does not wake up but you can push the power button wake it up.
I tested.
When the phone beeps to tell me a have another call i take phone away from my head and proximity censor takes a little longer..like 5 sec before screen comes on.
But mine doesn't stay off like yours...tested 5 times

My screen does come on eventually about 5 seconds. Before it used to be instant. Hitting the power button doesn't wake the phone like the other user mentioned. Do u guys think a factory reset will help. I am reluctant to take the plunge cause its such a pain in the neck to reinstall everything.
I have the same issue as well. I tested 3 times and the issue existed every time. I tried to unlock the phone with power button but it wouldn't unlock it (maybe lag?) because after I pressed power button 4 times, THEN it lit up for a moment but by that time, the waiting call already ended.
I'm surprised more people aren't bothered with this serious issue.
Got the same issues, updated via ODIN, argh that's gonna be fun.
Interesting...it would be great if you guys contacted Samsung via email/other method to let them know about the issue. Hopefully they can fix this bug.

I would love to contact them, just not sure where/how. Even if they do fix it, it will only come with another bug fix OTA or Froyo whichever comes first. Given Samsung's track record, this will probably take a while. To me personally, this is an earth shaterring issue since i use the phone exclusively for business being on multiple lines often. Its so bad for me that if it isnt fixed by the time the new mytouch HD comes out, I will have to dump the vibrant even though i love it so much. Me missing calls far outweighs the "love" for this handset.
Its been a few days now since many of us have gotten the update and I am surprised so few of us have not reported this. Has anyone been able to come up with a temporary fix or a replacement dialer to alleviate the horrible issue??
its been a few days now since many of us have gotten the update and i cant believe how so few people have complained about this. It is so annoying not to see who is calling on the second line .
I just got the firmware today and I'd be willing to go back. I missed three calls today because of it. Now what do I do?

My voice Intermittently going quiet (During calls)

Hi,
Sometimes when I'm talking, my friends tell me that my voice goes quiet and muffled, my friend notices this sometimes when i'm talking, and it can happen anytime the voice from me just goes all quiet and muffled.
Anybody experienced this with the HD2 or know a fix?
I've tried to upgrade firmware to latest but nothing.
Thanks.
It's called Laryngitis. it'll go away in 2 weeks. This isn't a health forum though
No, but it sounds like a microphone issue. I haven't experienced this though, so it may be a hardware issue.

I've got a similar issue, but I'm not sure if it's the same one..
About 15 minutes into a call. It almost sounds like the reception is about to cut out, then it goes back normal, then it starts repeating that cycle every two seconds or so until i get so frustrated that I just hang up. Doesnt seem to make a difference when I call again.
I've also tried updating ROMs and Radios a few times, but it doesnt seem to help. I'm now back on Duttys Hybrid V6 WWE and have upgraded to the 2.15 radio...
Haven't been able to figure out what it could be... but it's pretty frustrating now.. First HTC was a Diamond that died in 3 months and now this HD2 is giving me the ****s... lol (never mind me.. i'm just venting! )

Can't Hear

Hi I am having an issue with my Evo where first couple of times the callers can't hear me. It usually goes away after 2 times but then if the phone sits around for about 40-60 minutes then it seems like the cycle starts over again.
I was using Fresh 3.3.0.1, but then I switched to CM 6.1 hoping that the issue would go away, but its still there. Anyone have something similar or know how I can solve this.
That happens to me about half the times I use the updated Voice Search app to call a number. No problems otherwise.
hmm..I wonder if I should get the phone unrooted and fixed by Sprint...its really annoying...

Question Problems with some notifications

I'm trying to work out if this is a 'just me' problem or something that's affecting more people but has gone unnoticed yet...
Some of my notifications (in particular missed calls, sms, voicemail and WhatsApp messages) seem to be significantly delayed - they may not come through as a notification for hours. My record is 13 hours for a missed call notification. Meanwhile, I also sometimes get a glyph notification when there's nothing new in my notifications - I'm starting to wonder if these are actually real notifications that don't make it through to the notification screen for some reason.
A reboot of the phone fixes the issue immediately but it returns at a yet to be determined interval.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Loving the phone but the OS feels a little Alpha / Beta right now.
There was like few seconds delay when I was on OS v1.0.2 but after v1.1.0 haven't faced any such notification delay issue.

Updating was the first thing I did.
No-one else seems to have this problem so far so I'm suspecting it's a me problem and I need a factory reset... however, the thought of setting my phone back up from scratch AGAIN fills me with dread. It took forever last time.

yeah that's a tedious process to do again but seems like you should try it.
