Has anyone else experienced this problem.
Although the phone shows it is connected to the Orange network quite often voice calls to the phone go straight to the voicemail, it seems that the phone is taking so long to process the call that the network assumes it is switched off and then diverts the call to the voicemail. a text then arrives notifying me of a missed call. Any ideas.
Incidentally I put the sim card back in my Artemis and everything worked OK

I too, seem to experience the same issue.. :\
It only seem to occurs after a while that the phone is in "extended sleep mode" (aka press the power key).
Now I'm trying a few things, I've switch the phone to GSM only network to see if THIS might be the issue... but if someone knows anything about this I'd be more than glad to be able to fix the issue
By the way my Kaiser is unbranded, the original HTC one!
You say you get a text re missed call, as opposed to a missed call notification. That would normally mean that the network couldn't see your phone - as normal internal missed calls (ie where you didnt asnwer) wouldn't send a text but would use an internal missed call counter.
So... do you have really weak 3g signal where you are and although the device thinks its connected, it isnt really?
Or is your device faulty...

Well I can say for me that the signal is always allmost full bars.
and I get txt msg saying either I have missed a call or that I have a new voicemail msg (Those are service provided by my carrier) So it's NOT "missed call notification" by WM.
So the network can't see your device when its trying to route a call to it...
Have you tried the device on GSM only? (settings, phone, band, change it from auto to gsm) to see if its a 3g network problem?

Yeah that's what I mentionned earlier, so far it seems to be okay.
But what could cause this? The device switching between the networks?
I've got it as well, but I have to say I have experienced this on the Wizard also, and that's not a 3g phone. Also had it on the Universal, and that's why I used a Tornado for a year as it didn't occur on the smartphone version of WM5.
I had high hopes of such bugs being ironed out in WM6.
I use the power key to put it in standby, as I didn't want to leave the screen using power whilst it decided to go into standby by itself. Is this extended sleep/standby that I am activating the wrong thing to do? What should we do to get it into a light sleep?

Well I dunno if it's cause by that, but this settings is located in the Power options of the setttings pannel... in the advanced tab you can tell it tu activate it or not and after how long u want it to *turn off the device* (which is what I call gently the "extended power saving")
Just spoke to Orange, apparently the 3G network went down yesterday this coincided with us getting the 3 tytn's so has probably made the problem worse. We were going to send the phone back under the 7 day return policy but have now decided to change them onto the gsm network as suggested by orange and see what happens when the 3G network re-appears.
I had the exact same problem with my Hermes on Orange about 14 months ago - just for a couple of weeks - as they were having network issues on 3g in my area.
3G masts are quite temperamental and if your local 3g provision keeps failing, they will replace them.
I haven't had any repeats of the problems for over a year.
The only annoying things about having to switch down to GSM are 1) no simultaneous data and voice, 2) slower surfing over GPRS and 3) you will get used to the massive battery life increase and switching back will hurt!

Just now I had a second round of this problem at work, and I had the same thing yesterday here. Very f***ing frustrating and since the primary function of a phone is to make calls, it's particularly ****e that it doesn't do it well.
No calls and only one out of 6 SMS's were delivered. I had to do a soft reset and then I had two voicemails and 5 unread SMS's pop up.
If the calls/SMS's were retrieved after a soft reset does this mean that it's the phone and not the transmitter? I use my phone for work and this is becoming a real problem.
I can foresee this phone being off to HTC for 'repair' getting a new unit, flogging it and going back to WM smartphone edition.
No - it sounds like a network issue.
Switch to GSM for a week. Then switch back and it should be fine.

Yeah, I did some searching on the subject and saw it occurred on many different WM phones, and switched it to GSM only.
It didn't fix it, and it simply wouldn't ring. I checked by calling from a colleague's phone and it displayed: 'warning active call divert on' or something like it.
I was most pissed off, as per my previous post.
When I got home, I activated (via network codes) call divert to my car phone number, then sent the cancel network code to deactivate it.
Tested via home phone and it rang. It was active (screen on) and rang withing one ring on the home phone. So I pressed the power button and tried it. Same result, imperceptibly slower if it was slower.
I work in a pre-fab unit made from corrugated steel on top of a hospital (obviously some sort of rapid office space 'solution'), and whilst I get 2 to 4 bars of 3G in there, and seeing the issues whilst on GSM only, I am totally and utterly confused as to the cause of the problem!
The Kaiser is however, on probation. For now
Cheers,
Joe

Hmmm really weird! keep us posted on your experiences
Suddenly yesterday I started to have problem making call only when 4g is active. The strange think is that I can send and receive sms, surf the web with the 4g connection but cant't make or receive calls. The phone get locked in waiting and after I click close call the phone application seems to get blocked and unresponsive.
My operator says there is no network problem.
If I switch to decks and gsm mode only, the problems vanish.
What I can do? I'm stock with android 4.4.3
I'm having issues with calls and texts on T-mobile since this morning. Whenever I place a call the phone sometimes takes 10 seconds to ring, rarely it'll go straight to voicemail, and more often the call won't go through at all, the call will just drop.
If I myself end the call I lose any sort of connection, no 2g no 3g no LTE; I checked settings/about/network and Cellular Network Type gets stuck on UMTS. When this happens I can't call nor can I send messages, the redundant fix that I have to do to fix LTE and get messages working again is to go into: settings/mobile data/network operators and register automatically again, this always gives me LTE and messaging back, and sometimes calls, sometimes.
On the other end, when people call me, I noticed that the phone will go into 4g or H which is the same thing I believe. However, calls don't come through, it either goes straight to voicemail or it'll ring once or twice then go straight to voicemail. Also when it rings on their end, I can't hear it on my end, phone is silent.
This has happened on 4 roms Eragon, NusenSeven, Stock GP Edition and Insert Coin,
The phone is rooted and s-off
HBoot: 161
7.19.401.2
If anyone has the same issue or know a fix, please let me know, it's getting a tad bit annoying.
Hoping It could be the sim card, Thank you, much appreciated
Edit: Apparently T-Mobile was having issues in my area. Surprised it was out for 3 days.
Hi guys
So i noticed that when i am on TIM italy... And i am in roaming from o2uk, well after i either do a phone call or i receive one the phone goes to emergency calls only for like a minute or so which is a bit odd.
Called o2 they just said fo change network im roaming on.. My wifes samsung s5 is on Same network and does not fall when doing a call.
What could. It be?? Just odd. If i choose another network works fine but i like TIM..
Thanks
I am getting calls that go straight to voicemail. This does not happen all the time, but when it does there is no call log, just a voicemail notification. Searching the web and support calls to T-Mobile seems to indicate that it is because the Mate 20 Lite does not support VoLTE, even though the phone has the band support. When a call comes in, T-Mobile will try and drop the call from LTE to 2G/3G, fail and then send the call straight to VM. Cannot find a solution and it seems there are many people having this issue across many different brands of unlocked phones on the T-Mobile network.
Here is the odd part and why I think it might be the phone. I am getting insane battery life on the Mate 20 Lite. I charged the phone to 100%last night, went to bed and 8 hours later it was still at 100%. Last night I missed an important call that went straight to VM. No forwarders, call blocks, airplane mode etc. I also noticed that these straight to VM calls happen when the phone has been sitting/immobile for a while. Like the aggressive battery management is killing some service. This does not happen with a Xiaomi A2 that my wife is using.
BTW, I am connecting to band LTE band 4 and get near 40Mbps down when testing, so I assume I am getting 4G LTE.
The phone is still within the return window and if I cannot solve this, I have to send it back.
Anyone have a solution?
No solution. I have a similar problem where I live there is nearly no cellular reception and the only way to get calls is to be connected to WiFi which activates VoLTE / Voice over WIFI. Huawei Mate 20 Lite does not do it though. Why not?
