GPS Toggle issue - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

Hi guys, it has been a couple months since I posted anything on here but just needed some help with my s7. I'm un rooted and haven't had any issues with the phone for quite some time. Recently though every time I toggle my GPS, my phone dials the last person that I dialed. I tried searching for answers but couldn't find anything. Wondering if anyone has run I to an issue like this and what can be done to fix it. I haven't tried doing a factory reset yet but I want to save that as a last resort.

XV6900 Texting Problem

I just bought my xv6900 2 days ago and i noticed that each time my phone goes idle as it goes to sleep and when someone text messages me i dont get a notification until i turn on the phone again with the button on top of the phone. and also sometimes i dont receive a call and when i next turn back on my phone it says missed call..
does anyone perhaps have the same problem or know whats wrong with my phone?
I have had the same problem and can't figure it out. I've done a hard reset and that fixes it for a bit, but no long term solution.
I have the following Software Installed:
SPB Mobile Shell
VIP Ringtone Manager
Shubaroo Group SMS

i have yet to install any other apps that didnt come with the phone. and i read that forum link u gave me, it doesnt seem to be my battery because i know my battery was at 80% when this happend. its such a nice phone but this really pisses me off. wish there was a solution.
I am having the same issue. I called verzion and they know nothing about it. Everyone who has this please call. I really like this phone but if it doesnt work like a phone its useless.
I've seen same problem on a Sprint Touch so it's not specific to Verizon.
I had 2 Sprint Touch phones side by side and one would not wake up from suspend for an incoming text or phone call. The second Touch worked properly and they had the exact same configuration. No clue why some of the HTC Vogue's have this issue and others don't.
I would call Verizon and ask for a swap if they ignore your problem.
Well I did a hard reset and it worked great for few days! Now back to normal.. looks like it is going back to verizon. Not sure what to get though.
Got the same problem but some days it works fine and some days it doesnt. I througth i had to much stuff saved or downloaded on the phone but when i removed programs that i downloaded that i never used it didnt fix anything so im puzzled like everyone else here.
same issue
I have had mine for several months now, i just had to do a hard reset recently and my phone has done the same exact thing ever since. I thought maybe it was a problem with polling. I did notice this time I hard reset, verizon did not have me set my A key, instead they changed something on their side and had me do a 228 reprogram. So i wonder if something is being changed via this new method ( the guy told me he just figured out he could do it this way and not require me to set my akey ).

strange problem with trinity

Hi guys.
A friend of mine just phoned me, he sounded desperate.
Yesterday we upgraded the TT6 to 7, apparently everything went ok (he used it yesterday afternoon and this morning).
This morning he tried to sync with the laptop interrupting the process (if i 've understood what he told me via phone).
Now the phone has stopped working like a pda, it only works as phone.
Trying to explain (i still have not seen the device), it can make calls, but programs don't start.
He sees the wm panel, can scroll the menus, but nothing happens if he taps the icons.
He tried soft reset, not working.
Since he is coming to me, hoping to find a solution, and since i don't owe a trinity but a tytn, is there any advice you can give me to help my friend (known issue or bug)?
Thanx in advance
Installed on device or on memorycard? try uninstall and softreset, look what happens.

Can't Sync/Quick GPS Download Freeze/ GPS not working

This is more of a little discovery than a call for help. Well here's the story:
Earlier yesterday I was messing about with a little program called "BT Spammer" which spams active bluetooth in vicinity with things of your choosing and I messed around with a setting on the program that changes my device and hw name.... for some reason I just deleted the bit in hw name and then I messed around with something else on my phone.... later on I had to use my gps program to find destination and for some reason the GPS just wouldn't find any satelites and I was outside ( it worked fine when i tired it a few days ago) so i used quick GPS to download sat locations but when it hit 100% download it would just freeze there and not do anything and not update. I got home and tried to activesync to my computer but it would not sync. I didn't know what was going on and I thought it might have been I installed too many progs on my Iolite and one of them must have messed it up... I was looking through searches and forums to see if anyone had and answer but found nothing and I was about to hard reset (which i really didn't wanna do)... then for some reason I backed tracked and by chance had a look at the BT Spammer program and found out that the device name and hw name field was blank.... I filled them back in even though I though it wouldn't make no difference to the problem I was having then tried to resync with my computer and it WORKED! I tried to update quickGPS and it WORKED! now everything is back to normal... anyway sorry about being long winded but I've looked at a lot of forums for help on things and sometimes people aren't very straighforward or give the whole story with their problems or solutions so people keep on asking over and over on different details to the whole dilemma... hope this helps anyone who runs into the same troubles.

Question about data connection turning off by itself

Just a few days ago my phone started to turn off the data connection when it went into standby. I did not change any settings or install any new software on the phone (in other words I did not change the way I use the phone). After some troubleshooting I figured out this only happened when I had the wifi turned on. Strangely this never occurred before.
I have contacted both TMO US and HTC and ultimately I was told to do a hard reset on the phone. The frequency of performing a hard reset (this is the about the third time in just over a month, and the phone has been replaced once already) is starting to concern me since I don't want to have to do this every couple weeks. Does anyone have any insight on what might be going on?
On a side note (this point might or might not be related, hopefully the more experienced crowd here can help me) when I had my phone replaced this new one would give me the low battery warning when the battery was at 25%, the first phone did this at 10% if I remember correctly. I believe it starts turning off the data at that point to save battery life. I haven't been getting the early warning since after the first week or so but could there be some underlying/related problem?
Thanks in advance for any help.
PS: I did a search and found threads discussing internet connection cutting out but that didn't seem to be the same problem. If there is another thread already started sorry I missed it.
