Phone dialing itself

Hello,
I am using 5800 XM. I just found out that my cell phone is dialing itself out in data type. It dials in the sequence of 22, 922 and 822. I notice it because it was making the same sound as if i dial to a number that is unreachable. When i check the call log, and thats how i found out the string of the data call. My cell phone did that whole string of data calls for three times. Anyone knows what causes that? Is it possible virus?

You have no virus because there are virtually no viruses for the S60 platform, and you'd have to have allowed one to be activated if one did turn up - they can't install themselves without your consent as they can in Windows.
Firstly, could it be as simple as you don't have the automatic lock on so the screen is being touched?
Otherwise, check Packet Data settings under Connectivity - make sure that your packet data connection is set to 'when needed' rather than 'when available'.
Also check if any apps are running in the background - hold down the menu key and a list of running apps will be shown, perhaps a piece of software that you are using is accessing the internet?

  • Blackberry malfunction--why is my phone dialing itself (and it actually rings as if it is a caller calling in but my Cell number shows)

    two weeks ago my Blackberry did something quite strange
    without any person nearby or pushing any buttons the phone rang--I looked to see who it was, and it said my full name and it displayed my full cell number.
    I did not answer it. It rang the full number of rings, then the phone stopped, there was no message left. I called my network Customer service and they could not explain this, except to ask me if I use Bluetooth. I do not and it is not enabled on my phone.
    It happened again today, with no person nearby who could have pushed any buttons.
    Do I have a virus?  I have had Blackberry models for years, and never had this happen to any handset.
    I do not download/upload anything except Blackberry updates.
    I also never dial my own number to access voicemail, I jsut dial 123 for Vmail.
    So can anyone explain this?  Much appreciated.

    The phone doesn't hav a virus, but that is strange.
    Do a battery pull first.
    Do you have yourself as a contact?  if so, delete your info for a bit to see what happens if this call happens again.
    if this happens again, I recommend you answer to see who is calling.  That way its logged with the carrier so they can do some investigation, trace, etc.

  • IPhone 5S lost voicemail and when I tap vm icon the phone diales voicemail and gets busy signal.  No other options show.

    iPhone 5S lost voice mail and when I tap vm icon the phone dials voice mail and gets busy signal.  No other options show.
    started yesterday.  No voice mail at all.  When I tap the voice mail icon the phone immediately dials some number and that number rings busy.  I can't select anything else.   Using Virgin mobile/  I am stumped.
    I have already tried a soft boot... power and home button....
    Help!

    Other than changing the SIM card, you don't mention any troubleshooting you did with your phone.
    If you haven't already, try the following steps as needed:
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Setting.
    Reset phone - press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears.
    Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
    Restore in iTunes as a new iPhone
    IF the last step doesn't fix it, there is a hardware problem and you should make an appt. with an Apple Store Genius Bar. The fact that you haven't dropped the phone by no means rules out hardware issues.

  • Is it possible to edit a number in the phone dial keypad or we have to wait till iOS 12?

    I use an iPhone 5c and and i've been waiting for a cursor on the dial pad after every iOS update since I started using an iPhone.
    one most annoying thing is realising you omitted a number from a long phone number or a recharge code, you have to clear all and start again.
    Check the image below, If you want to insert the number 2, you'll have to clear everything, and start all over.
    One more thing is number suggestion or smart dialling; if I wanna call 'Joe' in my contacts, shouldn't I be able to press 5-6-3 to get names suggestions within that number combinations?
    Why does Apple want to wait for iOS 12 to do this? Do they ever check other phone OS? I love iPhone but sometimes its hard we have to wait for two years before they introduce some simple feature that already existed.
    Just because they're focusing on new groundbreaking features doesn't mean they can't make that possible?
    We know its impossible for Apple to put FM radio in the iPhone because they want to sell the iPhone 8 with a new fm radio feature; but a better dial keypad, come on!! Make some upgrade.
    My question here is... is it possible for Apple to make the phone dial pad editable aside Copy/Paste options or make it suggest names when u start dialling; or is there a Setting I need to change to make that possible?

    Hi ChrisJ4203,
    I see you didn't comment on editing the numbers in the keypad, I believe you have that problem too but you forgot to click "I have this question too".
    By the way I've sent a couple feedback messages to Apple already and thanks for reminding me, I guess I'll have to be doing that more often.
    Enjoy your day

  • How do I get my contacts back after my phone wiped itself?

    I have a password set on my phone and you get 10 attempts before it locks you out.  My friend decided to take all 10 of those attempts and failed and right after that a white screen came up and said "wiping". I took my battery out and put it back in and the wiping screen came back up and then it turned on like normal.  But all of my contacts and messages are gone, but not my downloaded apps, pictures, ringtones, and stuff like that. How do i get my contacts back if they weren't on my SIM card? and why would my phone wipe itself just because someone failed at the password 10 times?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Yes the wipe would delete all personal data settings as a security feature designed in the device.
    Unless you have used the Blackberry desktop software to get a full backup of the device prior to the wipe the data is gone. If you do have the backup file you can restore the data via the desktop manager.
    Thanks,

    KB10385 Forgotten password security wipe.
    " As a security feature, the BlackBerry smartphone is designed to allow a maximum of 10 attempts by the BlackBerry smartphone user to type the correct password. After the tenth attempt, if the correct password has not been typed, all data is erased from the BlackBerry smartphone in order to discourage its theft or misuse."

  • Unable to get Phone Dialer working

    Hello everyone,
    I have setup a brand new client. And I am unable to get the dialer working correctly.
    I have followed the directions here: Re: The Top10 most frequently asked questions and answers (FAQ) January 2009
    - Telephony service is started
    - Windows XP Phone and Modem settings correctly configured
    - Phone Dialer does work and does show the progress of the "manual" test call
    - Phone Dialer is running and minimized
    - SAP/b1 General Settings/Service is setup with an area code.. nothing needed for an outside line
    When I pull up a Business Partner and hover over a phone number, I hit CTRL+TAB and nothing happens... the next field is just highlighted and no dialing occurs.
    Any thoughts as to what I'm missing to get this working correctly?
    All input is welcome.
    Thanks!
    ~ terry o.

    Finally got this working. Please setup your dialer using these directions;
    - Telephony service is started
    - Windows Phone and Modem settings correctly configured with any required settings like area code or country
    - Run Phone Dialer (dialer.exe) and confirm it does work and does show the progress of a "manual" test call
    - Change SAP/b1 General Settings/"Service" is setup with an area code.. and outside line requirements
    Open SAP/b1 and hover your cursor over a phone number. When the "phone" icon is displayed, press "CTRL + double-click".
    The dialer should open and you should see the progres of your call.
    Good luck!

  • Linking to a phone dialer in Muse

    In the new videos about how to create mobile versions of your site, both instructors show that you can add a "click to call" feature to the phone number. This allows the person visiting the site to just tap on the phone number to bring up the phone's dialer. However,  neither one shows how to do this. I've looked in the links menu and there is no option for a phone dialer (and yes, I'm in the phone version of the editor). How do I do this?

    I am having trouble with this myself.  I thought it was a matter of just simply putting the phone number  555-555-5555 into the links bar where it says "add or filter links".
    So I highlighted some text and linked it to that number..
    But that did not work, as i tested it out on my mobile. 
    so then I tried to enter this into the links bar:  mobile: 555-555-5555.
    That did not work either.
    I know for the text feature you put in "sms: 555-555-5555" and that does work.
    So I am lost as well. 

  • Iphone 3gs- updated to the ios 5.0.1... since then i plugged it into itunes, an now my phone restarts itself every 3-4 minutes! Restored 4 times and still not working help please!!!!!

    iphone 3gs- updated to the ios 5.0.1... since then i plugged it into itunes, an now my phone restarts itself every 3-4 minutes!!! it so annoying! its useless, i cant do anything with it. restored it 4 times and its still doing it!!! please help!!!
    i contacted o2 and they said id have to pay to get it fixed after sending it away for ten days if their was a fault, when im still under warranty!! contacted apple who will get back to me!

    I am assuming you updated to version 5.1.1, not 5.0.1 since no legitimate version of 5.0.1 is available.
    Where is this iPhone from and what means did you use to unlock it?

  • Call microsoft phone dialer from forms

    Has anyone included the phone dialer in their forms application either with activeX or tapi.dll? Please tell me what to do. Thanks.

    I want to do something similar to what is being asked for here. I would like to use javascript radio button to determine which of a list of Oracle BI reports loads in a dashboard section.
    Choose Report to view:
    * - Report One
    - Report Two
    - Report Three
    - Report Four
    === REPORT SECTION ==============================
    Report One is shown by default, but changes when radio button is moved.
    Can someone give me some example code of how to do this?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Anyway to disable Smart Dialing and add Edit before dial in phone dialer

    Is there any way to disable Smart Dialing in OS 10.2, my old BB with OS 7 can set the country code to "null"
    The feature is annoying as in Greater China, we have have 1 sim card with 4 nnumber for HK, China, Taiwan and Macau all with different country code.  The smart dialer alway add the country code to the phone number and call dial unsucessful.   
    Also in old OS 7 it allow edit before dial, but in OS10.2 I can never edit a phone number after paste in phone dialer, since here we always need to change country code, area code, add a "+" etc 

     I would suggest what you mentioned as blackberry can support multiple numbers in one contact, so you would only have one contact for say John Smith... but a contact for in country and out of country. Aside from that, I dont believe there has been an app developed for this specific issue.

  • Where is "phone dialer"?

    I have a love/hate relationship with my 8330. I love it but it is so frustrating. I would like to use the letter shortcuts but I can't figure out how to turn off whatever it is in "phone dialer." I don't know where phone dialer is. EVERY key seems to go to address book.
    I watched the tutorial and I even bought a book but I am still tearing my hair half the time.

     Green key, then from the phone screen, menu key, select options, general options. Scroll down to dial from home screen
    This gets you dial from the home screen.
    Back to the same path to Phone options, general options, phone list views, can be set to "name".
    This lets you type "R" and get users starting with "R".
    Is this what you are looking for?

  • Anyone else have their phone erase itself completely when upgrading?

    I was upgrading to the ios 7, and suddenly my phone erased itself and everything in it. 
    Even my back ups on iTunes were gone. 
    It gave me one option:  to restore to factory settings.  Then it was saying "preparing to restore for 25 minutes.  I had to close everything and restart my Mac.  It then restored my phone to nada.  It said my last back up was June 1st.  It was 2 weeks ago.  I lost all texts, all info and nearly 2 hours of productivity.  I run 2 businesses with this phone.  This is nuts.  I am so frustrated!
    Has this happened to anyone else?

    this happened to me too, very quickly after i got my iPhone 5. You are still in warranty, so i would suggest you do what i did. I just went back to where i got the phone (AT&T for me) with my cord, told them that my cord stopped working and they just gave me a new one with out any issue! i use my phone for everything too, so i know how important this is! hope this helps!
