Cannot receive calls on z3c - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I cannot receive calls on my z3 compact. I can make calls, I have lte, my sms works but when people call me it rings twice and goes straight to voicemail.
Please help, it's really inconvenient.
I put my iPhone 5s SIM card in it...is that the issue?

I suggest you check call forwarding status

But sometimes it does work...usually right after I made a call
Also right after I reset the phone

Anything?
Phone receives calls while im on it.
Once I leave it idle for a couple minutes, texts will come in but if someone calls it goes straight to voicemail
I have S5 imei on it
Is that the issue, I put the Sony IMEI but I was not getting lte speeds.
Dont know what to do

I don't have any advice except that I'm pretty sure it's NOT the IMEI that's the issue.

got the exact same problem
Phone seems fine for a few hours after a reset so have resorted to resetting it a few times a day now. The only other commonality was that this number was used in an iphone 4s previously and i am wondering if there are any iphone specific carrier settings which could be causing this.
Will try buying another carrier's prepaid sim to see if that would solve the problem.
Meanwhile if any of you gentlemen find a solution I'm all ears.

same issue here. check this thread

Missed Calls

Hello,
I'm on EE UK network and I keep getting text messages that i've missed a call even when i'm at home where i'm connected to wireless and also have 3 or 4 bars signal.
don;t understand why this keeps happening. I try calling my phone from another mobile and it works OK.
Any one know why this might happen?
Thanks
Are you sure its recent calls? Depending on your carrier it might log it and send it as a reminder later or something like that.

Problems like this are quicker to fix by wiping your phone, if you have data you want to backup either use titanium backup or do a nandroid backup (build into CWM)

I've wiped the phone but just found the problem still exists, any help with this will be appreciated. It's very annoying that people cant get through to me.
I read somewhere that the problem might be something to do with the 4g network. the network needs to switch from 4g to 3g to receive voice calls and if it doesn't switch quick enough, it results in a rejected/unconnected call but gives me a text to say someone couldn't get through.
is that possible?
I also have the same problem. While I was holding my device which had three bars of signal ,I was calling my number from a friend and kept getting the msg that it was not available, ..after 2 mins I received about 5 "missed call" messages. I think it's problem of EE though.

Nexus 6 outgoing sms problem on regional cdma carrier

I have a problem using the Nexus 6 on my carrier, "Bluegrass Cellular" which is a regional cdma/lte carrier partnered with Verizon Wireless under their "LRA" (LTE in rural America) program. This issue happens with other carriers under the same agreement, and a few other carriers per Google search but I couldn't find any solutions. Issue doesn't seem to be ROM dependant either. If more carrier specific info is needed I can provide it.
Before a wonky work around mentioned next, this is the issue. Problem is if connected to LTE, everything works, calls in and out, mms in and out, and receiving sms. But you cannot send sms. If you are connected to LTE, when you send a sms it will fail with the message message, "cant send message (insert carrier name) error -1. But you could downgrade network to 3g and you can send fine. But back to LTE no sms.
Only fix/work around my friend found is to flash the android m preview radio. With that, sms sends, but it takes 30-45 seconds to send per text.
Does anyone have any ideas? Android m radio with delay is better than nothing, but it's still rather frustrating. Thanks in advance for any inputs.

I'm in the same boat here, tried multiple different things and no luck. Only fix is m radio that's takes up to 40 seconds to send which I feel is wasting precious battery life. Anybody have any idea?

Yeah it is. Hopefully someone has suggestions on how to fix it or have any info on what's making it hold up when it sends. No idea why it sends instantly on 3g, 40 seconds on LTE on m radio, but no sending at all on lte any lp radio. Would it be a radio problem maybe I'm not sure... With all the proper apns set (not that it should matter for sms) I don't know what else it could be.

Go to the info dialer menu (*#*#INFO#*#*). Go to the phone info. Scroll to the bottom and turn off SMS over IMS.
Done already doesn't change anything. Same delay on LTE

Calling doesn't always work

Hi, I've noticed recently that sometimes when I try to call a number, it does not call; instead the dialpad goes blank. This occurs especially trying to dial numbers from Google maps or from contacts. Does anyone know a solution to this?

I have an issue like that, but the dial pad doesn't go blank. the call just sits there in silence and never connects. I have to toggle Airplane mode to fix it.
I have a similar issue! WHen calling someone it says dialing for like 10 seconds. Sometimes i miss calls because when someone calls me it says the netwrk is busy or something like that,
Not sure why this is happening. The only "system" change I've made is installing themes.

Yes and unfortunately it is that the 3 or 4 of us have defective phones. We need new ones

Not sure that's the solution. The issue wasn't present since the day I bought the phone.

if i recall, i having this problem on galaxy s5 or note4 edge, cant remember.
when i make a call, i always turn off wifi, it fixed the problem for me.
Did you swap the SIM from your previous phone to this phone without activating the new one? I did this and had issues. I called AT&T, and they said my IMEI from my old phone was showing and not the new one. You might try giving them a call and make sure the IMEI showing on their side is that of your new phone.
I notice that this frequently occurs if I start a call while connected to Wifi and then walk/drive outside the Wifi range. Toggling Airplane mode always fixes it for me.

I have this exact issue and the airplane mode toggle fixes it. I would like to know what is going on , whether my device is defective or if there is a better fix.
Same issue (not connecting calls, not the screen blank issue)

Nexus 6 not receiving calls

Hello guys its been a while since I've been on probably since the t mobile wing haha but i need some help. i have a nexus 6 on t mobile and i am having issues. Im on 5.1.1 and build lyz28e. I am not receiving calls and my texts are delayed.i do not get a missed call notification. I do not know any one calls until they tell me they tried to call earlier or yesterday. I got a new sim card and got a replacement phone and tmobile's customer services hasn't really helped me. I thought with wifi calling it would help but I don't think it has. Its not happening all the time but enough where its affecting my everyday life by missing calls from clients .

Not receiving calls (SM-N950F) on T-Mobile

I bought this Note 8 (SM-N950F) in Amazon.
Sometimes when people call me I dont receive the calls nor notifications...they go directly to voicemail.
I'm in US using the same T-Mobile SIM that I've used with my two previous phones (they worked perfectly).
I'm aware that this is not a US model but I'm able to make calls and receive many calls, I can use 4G too with no conectivity issue.
But sometimes I dont receive calls and that worries me because that'd be a big deal in case of an emergency :/
I've searched on the web but have found no solutions. I will really appreciate your help guys

It happens with SMS too, I can send but sometimes I can't receive them.
I spoke with T-Mobile, tech support...they did something to the SIM, I hope it works now

You can just search "tmobile apn setting for [your phone]" on google and it should appear. I found mine and I did it but still cant make or receive any calls. I think they messed up my SIM, Im trying to figure out how can i contact them cause i cant even call them.
I will keep you updated with any solution or idea

I still have the same problem. Have you found something?
I'm able to make calls any time, and receives calls sometimes...but I recently noticed that when I'm not receiving calls, I just make a call and instantly I'm able to receive calls...so, I'm pretty sure it has to do with the phone app going to sleep.

I went to TMobile and I got a new SIM too....still the same issue. But let me know if it works for you anyways.
Like I said, I'm sure that what's causing the issue, is the "phone" app simply hibernating, but I don't know specifically what's the name.
If anyone here could let me know what's the name of the app that controls the cellular activity, would be great
