[Q] Ghost calls - LG Optimus 4X HD

Hello everyone, sorry if i open a new thread about this problem but i can't seem to find any help on the Optimus 4x HD but only on the Optimus 3D which seems to have solved this issue with the V21E firmware. So, from a few days my phone started to have the infamous "ghost calls" problem, organizing internal processes every time you call, etc.. I would like to know if there is any known way to solve this, since the phone is almost useless. I already updated to the latest firmware available for my country (Italy V20B) but the issue appeared again after a couple of hours. I also noticed that the latest internation firmware available worldwide is turkey V20D but i don't have any feedback if it can helps since only a few persons seems to have the gc on Optimus 4x HD, everybody is talking about the Optimus 3D. The first question is if it's safe to update to turkey V20D or if it voids the warranty since my last option is to send it back to LG, but they usually take a lot of time and, as i can see, sometimes they just send it back to you with the issue still present losing a big amount of time. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated since i'm running out of options.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT : If anybody is interested I heard from another user that with the turkey V20D the issue is still present.. No clue on how to proceed

I have to say that for few days it worked. I think the issue is realted to some network cells or area. but I'm not sure!

I'm too plagued by the "reorganizing internal processes" issue (while signal strength appears to be full bars). unable to receive calls or make any outgoing calls. only a reboot solves the issue.
All custom ROMs I tried also suffer from network drops as well (though issue is more apparent with custom ROM, as the buttons light up when the phone loses signal, and when turning on the screen you immediately notice signal strength is zero, so you know right away that it happened).
I also tried V10H as the baseband, the standard update (V20C), and the latest Turkey V20D.
My phone is still under warranty as I only purchased it March 2014. Is it worth sending it for warranty repair?

Network problems with my phone

I bought my Lg o2x last May (May 2011). I was in canada for 10 months and actually I am from Germany so anyways during canada i rooted my phone and i' ve used several ROMs like NOVA / AOKP or CM7.2. Since I rooted my phone I was not able to call anyone but they could call me and we could text each other. I wondered what the problem was but I am not pretty sure. Baseband? Apn? Right now I am back in Germany I wanna use my phone with my german provider but it is not working. My phone can find a network but not connect.
Baseband: 1035.21_20110725

Galaxy S Advance Network Issues

Hi,
I got s advance for my wife 2 weeks ago thinking its the best sub 20k handset in india at the moment. First 2 weeks all was well. But since last 3 days she has been complaining about network loss issues as reported by all here. I even tested it yesterday and put it to gsm only mode. But it seems its still there.
Any body here facing this issue? I googled this and it seems there are a lot of people complaining about the same.

Yes all facing the same problem with galaxy s advance in India. The issue diminishes if you switch to GSM only mode by disabling 3G..
All of us should call and flood samsung with complaints. As of now they are pretending that no issue exists with the phone, despite numerous complaints on their own offiicial website.
Yup today I'm also having this problem ....what the hell...the basic feature of phone connectivity is hampered....
Guys there's new kernel version for those having network and battery issues kindly update your device from settings software update ...new kernel 6mb....kindly enjoy the beast now...who couldn't due to batteryy network and lag issues
Ok guys..what I'm writing plz copy and paste to every blog you know of s advance so that people come to know the reality of network error...first of all...there's no network error on this phone...no come to the topic why we get network error than...ok..in India we have 2 types of network one Gsm and one cdma...and those guys who used Android before..and flashed different countries baseband.remember we had new options in network...not cdma or Gsm we had use 2g only...but this phone with Indian baseband has cdma or Gsm...now we all know cdma service like reliance tata indicom and all..if you use that than put phone on cdma mode...otherwise put on Gsm mode..if you using 3g on Gsm or cdma doesn't matter...add some guy asked me that he using 3g so he put it on auto mode...in auto mode your phone connects to Gsm and calls again after call it's search for both cdma and Gsm network but your sin doesn't support cdma bands so network error again now your phone tries for Gsm and locks your phone...but after some time again it searches for cdma...and of you want to check your phone than put your phone only on cdma mode and try to call...you'll get error msg...network not found...guys relax there's no bug..it's just we were confused...and there's lack of communication between the Korean company with real developers and Samsung care..idiots...actually not there fault...they are just dummies ...they've been told to format flash and of world good otherwise send to head office...do guys all doubts clear..and the who sold there phones...the phone wasn't meant for you and kindly mail to that guy who's signing the refund in Samsung that he should communicate with Korean devs and try to learn what's the real problem and we're it is....guys I guess I I've cleared all doubts...regarding network error...which wasn't there...keep smiling keep enjoying the beautiful gift of life...
This is something happens with almost all android devices with 3G... Maybe.... Because even i face this problem on my galaxy ace plus...
Sent from my GT-S7500 using xda premium
it's true... one thing that might help is to turn network on/off a few times in order to get it working properly again... that's what i do... it doesnt work everytime but it's better than nothing, right?

Hi SAdvance, can you please tell me which stock JB update did you use? I used Stock JB for Russia and since then whenever I turn on my data network (Airtel, KA) it loses connectivity to the network and toggles in and out of network every 5 seconds. Any suggestions?

[Q] Dial to Korea issue (please help)

First of all i would like to thank XDA Developers for all the efforts they have exerted to make their forum as one of the best out there.
Secondly, i have been having this problem since i bought the LG Optimus G F180L model from from South Korea and every time i dial a number (live in Bahrain), this dial to Korea or Local option pops up and its kind of annoying thing to do especially for frequent call users.
I tried all methods in Google like disabling auto dial in roaming and data roaming. I even rooted the device and updated it to 4.1.2 jelly bean but the problem persisted.
I really love this phone its an amazing and must have device, and that's why i'm so keen to find a solution to this issue, which i'm quite sure that is not difficult for our dear XDA Developers to find.
Peace
So.... how is it related to Xperia Z? Would like to help but seems like your issue is exclusive only to your device and we can't help since we don't own a device like yours.
I've the same LG F180L mobile and I'm come from The Netherlands and had the same problem.
Yesterday a was on a site and they wrote that it was possible to install the A10 version off the E975 on a F180.
I did and everything sames to work, I haven't the dial problem anymore and I'm also rid off the Korean apps.
I only must see to get the signal ogf 3g and wifi back, but after I let search for provider it seems to work.

LG 4X HD messages not working, cellular signal disappearing

Hi,
I just update my 4X HD to Jelly Bean (4.1.2, official) from the official 4.0.3.
Now I have some problems that I need to have fixed ASAP.. my messages won't open it just opens, does nothing for a few moments -> 'Messages not responding', so I can't send any texts. Also cellular signal dissapears, like nothing and doesn't come back.
Help me please :/.
Nevermind. I'm putting 4.0.3 on it and am never buying any phone from LG anymore.
LOL! Nice one man!:good:

Call dropping after 58.1.A.5.159 update

Hi folks,
after the last update I have a big problem: when I start a call suddently the signal goes 0 (on both SIMs) and I receive a "no network" error. After a few seconds the signals go back but sometimes I have to wait for 15 or 20 minutes to call otherwise the call drops again.
It happens even when receiving calls.
I have this problem at around 30/40% of calls I try to make and this is very disappointing because I use the phone for work and I do many calls everyday.
A user on an Italian forum had the same problem two updates ago, he told me that he solved after a reset of the phone. I'm desperate now, tomorrow it's holiday in Switzerland so I think I will do it.
NOTE: It's strange nobody on internet is talking about this problem... It's only me?
Having the same issues with this build.
I have the HK dual sim, which I flashed the SEA firmware onto last year.
I'm having to go back to my old phone until this is resolved, I have missed several calls because of it. I tried a factory reset, which seemed to clear it up for a short while, but the problem came back.
Same problem here. After the update of
51.1.A.5.159​I cannot receive or place calls
I cannot receive or send messages
IF I am inside a building. The network goes from 2 bars to 0 when I try to call. If i go outside of the building the cellular network is stronger (full) and calls are going through. I suspect there's something wrong with the baseband maybe? Which is what I was trying to search for yesterday. Was wondering if the current baseband for Android 11 is new or maybe it is the old one from Android 10?
Regardless, I can wholeheartedly say that Android 11 has basically shattered the signal strenght on this device to the point of making it useless. Now I can use it as a multimedia device... weeeheeeee.... Buy a premium device they say, it will be worth it, they say. Never had this issue on any of my Oneplus devices. Shame on Sony!
(btw my phone has the international software, not the HK one. using it on one single sim- XQ-AT-51).
The italian user told me now he's fine, the problem didn't came back.
Tomorrow I have a Switzerland holiday, I'm going to reset the phone to try to fix the problem.
Thanks for answering my question, it seems I'm not the only one with this problem. It's a pity there's no more official Sony forum to discuss these issues.

Please do let us know how you get going. I too wanted to perform a factory reset but I've postponed it in case I could find some answers on the internet.

The phone is now restoring the backup from Google but this evening I don't think I will make a single call.
Tomorrow at work I will stress it (usually I make 1h of calls everyday, using both SIMs), and give you the results. Cheers!
The situation is maybe worse than before.
I don't remember if is it possible to downgrade. Xperifirm? Still works with new phones?
Otherwise I have to use my old XZ Premium because I have so many issues at work.

The thing I noticed is that the call drops when switching network from 4G to 2G. Expecially on my Italian SIM, i have a weak 4G signal in my office (1-0 bars) but I have a full 4 bars 2G signal. Before this update when I start a call you can clearly see the signal bar going from 0-1 to full 4 meaning the phone switched to 2G. After this update it was impossible to place a call from my office on my italian SIM because it fails in that 4G/2G switch.
I put that SIM in "GSM only" and I had no issues in managing calls. It's unpractical but works.
The problem is worse on my Swiss SIM (the one I use for work) that has no 2G coverage, so I leave it in 5G/LTE/WCDMA/ecc ecc and hope the best. But I see some switch happens even there ranging from 0-1 to 3 bars (I think is 4G/3G switch. I don't have 5G or 2G coverage in my office). So I can't do anything to avoid the issue, that happens randomly but it's quite frustrating
(...)Same problem on HK. Does anyone think that the problem will be solved with an update? Sony flagship haha. The gsm signal was much weaker than the former P20pro before .... 178. Now ..... disaster. I think the only asset Remaining that you can read "network unavailable" on a 4K screen
So far mine seems much better after the latest update 58.1.A.5.222.
Here's hoping it was a temporary glitch.
Please try to use only one SIM until new updates.
I have the same issues but with only one it works fine.
Do we have any news about a new update so far ?
Have a good day!
Today the 58.1.A.5.222A update arrived, I tested the phone and seems to be OK, tomorrow I will test it harder during the workday.
PS: since two weeks I was using my old XZ Premium and the 1 II was resting in the drawer. So sad. I tried to flash another firmware but I had errors on Flashtool and newflasher. Nothing worked wtf.
After a working day in my office with many calls on both SIMs (a place where the problem was at its best as wrote before) I can confirm you the update completely solved the problem.
So thanks to everybody for the support, I hope you'll also be able to fix it with this update.

"Temporary glitch" un par di balle*: 3 weeks with my old XZ Premium, and the actual flagship "Xperia 1 II" in the drawer! And resets, backups, restores, tests, copying gigabytes of data from and to the phone, hours of trying to flash other firmwares and receiving only errors...

I got the same software number and my problem still persists. Thank you for updating the thread with your findings. Glad to hear yours is working now.
Hello everyone, I faced the same issue on my device after updating to the software version mentioned by author, I've fixed the issue by flashing .280 software for SEA customisation. Original one was HK. So, now I'm able to use my phone as usual. Hope this tip will help somewho. Good luck with your devices.
