Is the "Wake Lock" app a good workaround for the Missed Calls/Texts issue?
Back on Jun 18, at the beginning of the "Any One Having Missed Call Problem after ED04 ..." thread, wardcst24 posted that the Wake Lock app seemed to fix the issue of missing calls and that all calls now were received A-OK (not sure about texts).
I think the train of thought is that after the Froyo / ED01 / ED04 updates, when the phone is in sleep mode it doesn't recognize some incoming calls and texts, but that this app keeps the CPU active enough to detect them when received. There's probably a (minimal?) hit to memory / battery life / processing speed, but certainly acceptable vs missing calls.
Has anyone had any luck with this or a similar app? I can't test it since I'm still on 2.1 (never got around to upgrading to Froyo, sometimes it pays to be lazy . . . )..
Here's the thread with the original Wake Lock reference:

It did work but when you would get a call wake lock would crash and if you didn't remember to reset it you would start missing calls again.
It would consume 3% per hour
I could not deal with having to remember to reset all the time so I sent my phone back to Samsung for the 5th time.
There is another one that is said to work very well it is sofLocker

I have not been able to test because Samsung has my phone for time #5

I am not able to see the missed calls when my iphone 3gs is locked.And how to set own ringtones in iphone 3gs
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons... -
In iOS 7 you can still make calls from the locked screen. Just swipe the missed call numbers to the right. Is this a bug?
How is it a security breach? You're free to turn off lock screen notifications for the phone app so that no one can do that.... even if they can, they can only call the number that called you... nothing else. (well, except for 900 or whatever the emergency services number is where you are, but that's required by law).

Good workaround for unanswered message filter?
Does anyone have a good workaround for Mail's lack of an 'unanswered' filter criterion? My mail is building up like crazy, And I really miss the ability to sort messages based on response.
Welcome to the discussions, Aaron.
Sort on the message status column. It is a good idea to get into the habit of disposing of a message as you answer it - either move it to a filing folder, or delete it - so your in box only contains unanswered messages.

Ok, a wish for the next iOS release, just a small anoying thing.
Scenario:
I have a missed call, the screen is locked. The name of the caller shows up on the screen, I slide the phone icon and phone back.
When I've ended the call there is still a notification of a missed call, i.e. the same missed call that I just called back. To clear the missed call red circle icon on the phone icon (in the unlocked state and the notification on the locked screen) I must open the missed call list. Then it clears.
My wish is that the phone understands that it should clear that missed call after I returned the call since I have obviously noted it.
-> Is this something apple will update or is there a setting that I could change?
/ErikYou have to return the call via the recent list or tap the red missed call entry in recent list otherwise even a hundred calls won't turn the balloon off.

Hi,

Unfortunately we cannot change this feature due to Apple's restrictions. :/

How to get rid of the missed call notification banner? - galaxy s3
SAMSUNG GALAXY S3
Has anyone found a way to get rid of - that is, keep it from EVER being displayed - the missed call notification banner on the lockscreen? I've tried everything I can think of short of getting a different phone ... a third party app worked perfectly until we were "blessed" with KitKat in the most recent software upgrade.Hey mayor360, I know that would concern me a bit too having my missed call notifications being shown while my device is locked. I have done some reasearch on my end and have found that for many users have been using 3rd party applications just as you have. If after the update your specific application started to not function we can try to reset the device to ensure there are no software issues and then install the application once more. If you'd like to give the reset a shot you can click this link to see how http://bit.ly/1pphu6w. This step will erase all the information on the device, so you want to make sure the device is backed up before proceeding. To backup your device you can simply download our Verizon Cloud application in the Google Play Store. Keep us updated. -AdamG_VZW

Hi Bentley,
I wanted to tell you that an important link you posted does
not work and says "Sorry, this page is not available".
It is in your post entitled "Locked [ADOBE FYI] : Getting
Support for Flash Player 10 and Issue Tracking post", and is at
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfmforumid=44&catid=184&threadid= 1400586&enterthread=y.
The link that is non-functional is "If you have issues
installing Flash Player 10, first troubleshoot your issues using
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer.
Read the technotes, do some testing.".
I just wanted you to know, since you have gone to all of the
effort of posting it. I apologize for having to start a new thread,
but I was unable to post to your thread, since it is locked and
read-only.
This is the issue I am dealing with myself, and desperately
need help with. :)
Thank you so very much,
KarenHi Bentley,
I just noticed something. The link that I pasted, to your
post, does not work either. I noticed why, however, and it seems to
be why the link in your original page does not work, and why the
link in my post that goes to your post does not work.
It seems to be that if a link has a period after it (i.e., if
it is at the end of a sentence), the period is incorrectly included
in the "real" link. Somehow, whatever mechanism that processes the
post has a mini bug in it.
If you go to the link that is results in "Sorry, this page is
not available", and look up into the browser address bar, you will
see the period there each time.
I just thought that I would point this out, too, so that the
web techs in charge of the workings of the forums could look into
it.
Here is the original link, without a period after it, to your
original page.

I Think the Missed Calls is a network Issue
I went 21 days on ED05 and now today out of the blue it had 3 missed calls
I am starting to believe it is a network Issue and not a problem with the phone
I have not Installed any apps It just out of the blue started missing CallsJust today, my wife's Fascinate was sitting within 10 feet of our recently acquired VZW Network Extender and had a missed call at 5:29pm. The only reason she noticed the missed call was because she had a clock alarm set for 5:30pm. Her phone has the ED05 update, was recently set back to Factory Default and only has 10 third party applications installed. She also has to charge her phone at least two times per day.
Unrelated to the software issues with the Fascinate, her charging port is flaky and requires you to wiggle the cable to get it to charge. Sometimes it will disconnect even while setting on a flat surface, which then makes it stop charging.
She just said to me, "The whole thing is just irritating to me." I really hope they get this resolved soon or it might be time to start looking else where for cell service.
Then there's my Fascinate that has worse battery life after we received out Network Extender. Doesn't make sense.

My iPhone won't redial calls on the missed call list, why?
My iPhone won't redial missed phone calls from the missed call list, why?
Typically the way the sync you're trying to achieve is performed is to do the following on both your iPhone and iPad (assuming they have the same Apple ID):
Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and turn on "Books".
From that time on, books purchased on one device (then or later) will appear on the other. -

i cant receive my Face Time Notification i only see the missed call afterwards why is this?
If it wasn't purchased in the Middle East, try checking Settings, then General, the Restrictions and make sure FaceTime is not turned off. Also, you know that FaceTime does not have its own application, but is accessed from the Contacts application, right?
