Cell Phone Problem/vanity

[Allen In Texas Hill Country]

Another break from politics. I poked around on the net but could not find a discussion of my problem.

Every once in a while my cell phone goes into a state where it will not answer calls. From the callers perspective it doesn't ring but acts like the phone is turned off. This happens not frequently but not infrequently#$%^&%^&%

I thought that if my tablet was on, that it might tell the phone, via bluetooth, to let the tablet answer the phone. So yesterday I get out of the car, come inside, put the phone on the desk beside the table and call it from the house phone. No ring at all. Turn the tablet off. Still will not answer. I get on the cell phone and go to the bluetooth screen. Tell it to look for devices and it says none. Put the phone down and call again from the house phone. This time the cell phone answered.

So thinking a bit more, When I get into the car, the cars bluetooth automatically connects to the phone for wireless operation which I like very much. But now wonder if, when I leave the car, the cell phone doesn't properly disconnect from the cars non-existent bluetooth.

What do you expect people to do from a 1000 miles away? So ALL the forum topics need to be totally focused on one issue? The hurricane?

Sorry, it doesn’t work that way and I’m surprised that even one poster here thinks it should. If you didn’t want to be a part of the cell phone discussion trying to help out another Freeper then you should have just NOT opened the thread, but no, you tried shaming people for not focusing on you and Texas?

You’re a wierdo. You really are.

Reboot it once a week - most problems occur after long periods (where updates occur) and never rebooting.
