Caller blocking does not work on A20e - any hints what to do? - Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers

Hello,
I observed that my Samsung A20e does not block calls from my other Samsung S7 (different phone number, of course) and vice versa. I have entered the phone number from the S7 in the address book on the A20e and then ticked that number to be blocked. When I call my A20e from my S7, the A20e rings as usual and the caller's details (from the S7) appear as usual. The same happens (on both devices) when somebody else calls either of the devices, despite he is on the list of blocked callers on both devices. This is not as it is supposed to be.
The A20e is stock Android 10, non-rooted, whereas the S7 is stock Android 8.0.0, rooted (the OS/root status on the S7 should not matter, though, for the A20e).
Actually, I do not want to install a caller blocking app, since this should work out-of-the-box. But, alas, it currently does not.
Does anybody of you have the same experience on the A20/A20e and maybe even found a solution? Thanks a lot for your hints and help!

Has somebody observed the same problem and found a solution?

Hello, I am still searching for a solution. The phone does not ring, but after a blocked caller called, it still shows information about that call, which I find very annoying. Isn't there a (non-root) way to completely(!) ignore blocked calls? Thanks for your hints!

Calls not saving to history??

My calls are not saving to history. It will save calls to history, then if I soft reset it seems to not be able to save calls again until I clear the history. This is very annoying. I have an idea what may be causing it (maybe the file isnt closing correctly and its unable to access it on restart?), but im not sure. In either case it sucks to get 3 missed calls and not have any idea who called you. Not good for business. Any solutions folks?
I am running the latest HTC Cingular Update on a CID cracked h2o mini s. I had phone dashboard installed, but removed it, did not solve problem.
Thanks,

strange issue on s5360, need help

I just reflashed the stock rom with odin. everything is working fine, no issues, except one detail. i can't send sms to my mom's phone. she can send to me, and she can recceive from everyone else, i can send to everyone else, it's only her phone that i cant send sms to.
does anyone know solution?
p.s. my mom's phone is an old nokia c3
old nokia have the power to block numbers - make sure your number is not accidently blocked
if you can send and recived to everyone else chances are theres nothing wrong with your phone but a setting where incoming texts from a number is blocked
its called the scrn list or screened list
on nokia goto - settings - call settings - no screening
delete any numbers there (hopefully your number is there and problem will be solved)
have you tried calling her? if its blocked on a nokia phone sometimes it wont ring and so on

sometimes your network just has a backlog or isnt working as it should - network errors happen from time to time - nothing you can do but wait till your provider sorts it

Need Opinions And Thoughts Please

Ok ive been pulling my hair out for a while with this problem so im really hoping you guys can give me some answers or suggestions to help me fix it My Girlfriend has the Galaxy S5 SM-G900V. Baseband version G900VVRU2BOG5 So rooting or custom ROMS is out of the question so that leaves me with trying to diagnose and eliminate this problem without a easy way out.
Ok the problem is once she updated the phone to lollipop she had all the common problems that come with it over time i have slowly eliminated them with factory resets and cache cleaning and such although i have one problem that not even verizon can figure out. The phone itself with occassionally and randomly just refuse to make or receive calls its a very odd problem because the phone will send and receive sms and mms just fine when this happens but when we try to dial out it just sits at dialing and never connects, when calls are dialed into the phone it will ring 5 times or so then go to voice mail or just go straight to voicemail altogether without ever ringing the s5 shows no sign of anyone ever trying to call at all no ringing no records nothing. Once in a blue moon it will ring 4 times on the dial in and then the s5 will start ringing around the 5th ring which is extremely long time IMO. This happens very randomly and in all different locations i have disabled call blocking and auto reject i have tried safe mode to only experience the same problems, i have factory reset several times. Verizon opened a ticket with there tier 2 techs and network development team to check out the issue they tell us everything is completely fine and theres nothing they can see wrong. But they do not deny the problem is there they just cant explain it. Now get this, This is the second phone that has done this to her Ther first one had the same problem and was warranty claimed this is the second phone and same exact issues. Im not sure what else i can do i am a very tech savy person and this one has got me stumped the only thing i can see thats odd for me is the phone has 3 Phone services running in the background But I believe this may have something to do with the Touchwiz Easy Or Regular Home UI althought im not sure why it would use seperate apps. Anyway any input would be helpful Thanks

Incoming calls are getting blocked

I've HTC HD2 phone, to which I added more ROM; however, all incoming calls are getting blocked and it's only when I take the battery out that the phone starts working again properly and I can make calls but, after a while, same thing happens. All other functions of this phone work perfectly well. I noticed that it's only when I use HyperDroid-CM7-SandyScorpion-v6.0 that the aforementioned problem isn't occurring. Could you help me please? Is the error to do with installing or with settings please? Thanks in advance.

incoming call screen lag from Always On Display

Hi everyone,
After reading @psouza4 guide to rooting my S7, I'm getting used to it every passing day as an upgrade from my S4.
I noticed some lag when getting an incoming call from the Always On Display (AOD). The phone will vibrate right before the ringtone plays, however the phone's AOD is still showing a good second before I see the incoming call screen.
I realize this is a minor inconvenience, and if I were a bit more patient I'll eventually see who is calling. However my Office desk phone routes to my Mobile phone and I need to quickly see who is calling to accept calls quickly and not keep clients waiting for me to answer because I didn't see who it was.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is this standard operation of the phone? Is there a solution to this?
Any input is truly appreciated.
Details:
Verizon Galaxy S7
Android: 6.0.1
Baseband: G930VVRU4API3
Status: rooted
root apps: SuperSU, FlashFire, Titanium Backup
frozen apps: standard debloat and fix followed from @psouza4 guide
note: my first post everyone, sorry if I missed a thread rule.
