Blackberry 8320 crashes & reboots during voice calls
Hello,
I have a 8320 on T-mobile, the phone has worked well for well over a year. Over the last few months, the phone has begun to hard lock & reboot during voice calls. This issue happened suddenly, e.g. over the first year it never happened. Now, it happens all the time. I did update the phone to v4.5, but there is not correlation to the update to 4.5 and the issue occuring (it was working well with 4.5 for some time before the issue started up)
Basically, given a voice call which lasts over 60 seconds, there is about a 50% chance the phone will grey-screen and reboot.
Carrier: T-Mobile
Curve 8320, v4.5.0.81 (platform 2.7.0.78)
File free: 14268148 (after recent battery out reboot)
Application: no user-installed apps... just whatever comes w/ T-mo
After the issue started occuring, (per suggestion on the forums) I replaced the battery with a brand new Blackberry CS-2 battery... issue still occurs.
This is my wife's phone. There are no additional apps installed. It's basically used for SMS, brickbreaker, and voice calls (in that order...). No WiFI, no BT, no email. I really don't want to have to replace this phone, but it has become basically useless.
Any ideas or suggestions to try?
Actually, my wife now tells me that it has been happening almost right after I updated it to 4.5... so maybe there is a correlation.
I don't see the previous software on T-Mobile's site. Does anyone know how I can revert the phone to the older revision?

SPA 525G Phones rebooting during phone calls
Hi,
My office uses a SPA 525G system and recently phones have been randomly rebooting during phone calls, causing the calls to drop. I have seen previous forums on various sites about this being a common problem but still do not have a clear answer on what a good solution might be.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!Are you using The Bluetooth on SPA525G? I find that this happens when I have BT connected to my iPhone

Is it possible to have the loudspeaker activate automatically during voice call?
When answering and making voice calls, is it possible to have the loudspeaker activate automatically during the voice call? Is there any settings on the device which can be changed for this to happen?
Thanks cor-el! I had tried that out, but was turned off by the different workflow (can't click Tab to select the address suggestions) and assumed by the look that I couldn't use my Smart Keywords for searches.
In fact, the workflow isn't that much bulkier and the Location Bar is fully functional:
* ''for a search: Ctrl+L, (Smart Keyword +) [search terms], Enter''
* ''for a suggested address: Ctrl+L, Down, Enter, Enter''
Still, it would be nice in future versions if:
# the Location Bar could automatically open when opening a (blank) new tab (just as the cursor automatically goes to the Location Bar when a new tab is opened with the Navigation Toolbar showing) to avoid the Ctrl+L step of the workflow
# the Tab, Enter workflow could be enabled for selecting address suggestions in the pop-up Location Bar
Or (most simply in my mind):
if '''the Navigation Toolbar could be set to show when a (blank) new tab is opened and disappear once an address/search is selected'''. -
E90 Reboots during internet call
hi,
i am facing a new problem wid my e90. it reboots itself when i make an internet call(mostly DURING the call and sometimes AFTER the call). i have been using internet call for a about a month now without any probs. just started facing it today. can anyone help please.
the changes i did in the last 24 hrs were:
1. edited my sip profile (only changed username)
i had no problems when i used the same profile wid the previous username all dis month. so kindly advise what could have triggered this poblem.
Solved!
Go to Solution.found the problem,
i noticed the rebooting sequence getting worse as it happened every 2 - 3 mins. so this is what i did,
1. removed my memory card and run the phone. it seemed to work normally. no hang and no reboots.
2. removed the battery for a while, then started the phone again ( without memory card )
3. now inserted the memory card... and the phone seems to have worked fine ever since.
anyone has a logic to wats the reason behind this sequence? -
IPhone 5s screen flashes on and off during voice calls?
Operation is perfect with every other app except whenever the phone detects I'm making or receiving a voice call. No problem on facetime.
The screen will instantly black out and to bring it back I have to press the main button, then screen will reappear but only for an instant before blacking out again.
It does not matter if the phone has been in standby or if I've been actively using it as the call comes in.
Its about the most frustrating thing I can imagine.
One clue, while I'm talking the phone will often mute itself as if my cheek activates the mute function.
I use no screen protector but I do use a case, it still does it when I take the phone out though.
It has done this since new and through at least one software update
Any help really appreciated, thanks,My wife rang Apple and while both of us spoke to Apple on the land line using hands free and spoke to each other using our iPhone 5s we were able to see that my big paws shadowed the proximity sensor each time I moved in to stab a button! Problem solved! I didn't even know there was a proximity sensor and your reply would have led me to it, thanks.

Here is the problem - I am often on conference calls. My company, for security reasons requires that I use the lock phone feature. However, I will be on a call, I have muted myself, then the phone locks. I then have to key in my password, and unmute my phone. This prevents me from "jumping in" the conversation appropriately. I either sound like I'm not paying attention or worse, I'm talking over someone else and seem rude. I have tried to search for any of the following features on the iphone 5 c.
Prevent phone from locking during phone calls
Set a button on the phone as mute/unmute
Find a headset that has a mute/unmute feature
I am not the only one at my company struggling with this so I'm thinking others might be too and that there is a solution!
Please help!
Thank you.Sounds like you need to upgrade to the iPhone 5s
The 5s has Touch ID
You can unlock your phone with your finger instead of typing in a key code
No swiping to unlock either, just touch the home button
You can enrol multiple fingers as well
Here is a video of it in action
http://www.apple.com/iphone-5s/videos/#video-touch
Or wait and see what iPhone 6 has to offer
That being said, as desiel vdub posted if the phone is up to your face, the proximity sensor should turn the screen off
And when you lower the phone turn it back on again
Not sure about the phone locking when your on a call doesn't sound right -
RV220W Crash/Reboot during two simultaneous transfers in reverse
Hi,
I have purchased one last April the RV220W router. I was very happy until then.
It is in the center of my gigabit network, divided into three VLANs:
- one for my computers,
- one for my NAS,
- one for my servers.
But I discovered a serious problem that prevents me from using my equipment:
- When I start a transfer of 4Gbit from my PC A to my NAS (Vlan1 to Vlan2)
- And, in same time, I start another transfer from my NAS to my PC 1 (Vlan2 to Vlan1).
The router is crashing and not responding, I cannot access to the router, the network is broken, Internet and others vlans are unreachable.
After few minutes, Internet and Vlans are available again, but not my router, I must reboot it manually.
I tested several configurations, no change. The new firmware (1.0.4.17) has not effects either.
Thanking you for your help
Best regards,
Richard Déloge.Hi Richard,

Skype 4.4.507 on Blackberry Z30, No speakerphone during video calls
I'm trying to solve why when i make a video call in skype the only sound from the phone comes from the top internal speak and not the speakerphone, making it impossible to hear the other person unless i hold the phone to my head like a call, making video calls kinda pointless.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I have 3 more weeks to decide if i want to keep this phone and this might be a deal breaker.You can also use headphones actually they did that this way in order the person you are talking to not to hear his voice...

N73 auto switch off during voice call
I know there's a topic about this auto switch off, but the reply didn't answer anything specific about this..
My N73 am using the latest firmware, the phone is superb, only if this problem doesn't occur.. It happen when I was in the middle of a conversation, and suddenly there's no voice on the other line, I tot it was my telco problem, and then when I was about to push the end call button, I only realise my phone has auto switch off itself.. Zzz.. This happen not once, but very frequently, and I'm puzzled cause sometimes I can chat for a very long time without a problem, and sometimes the auto off problem occurs many times in a day..
Anyone encounter this problem b4? Is there a fix to this? =(Message Edited by kaytse82 on 02-Jun-200707:18 AMThe best thing you can do is book the handset into a NSC for the handset to be checked out.

Random reboots during phone calls after upgrading to OS4
My 3GS is rebooting without warning in the middle of calls after the upgrade - never did this before. This has happened at least five times today without any pattern: one 50-minute call was fine but other shorter ones have been cut off without warning. Battery is fine. It's been doing this ever since I upgraded last week.
Also I have noticed the whole phone has slowed down dramatically, presumably due to multitasking loading up the CPU?Try doing a restore.

My Iphone 4 starts to reboots during a call on 4.0.1 firmware, so I update to 4.3.3 but no luck it still reboots 3 or 4 times a day during a phone call, I already restored 3 times, I set it up like a new device and nothing change, so what can I do?
Thanks for the comment. Problem is: I am in South Africa and with Vodacom. They are not prepared to replace it. They call it an "out of the box problem". They are prepared to send it away for repairs and that would take FOURTEEN DAYS!!
Can you believe it!
