Audiovox 8920 Call History problem

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: klime

Got the phone yesterday and I have a problem with the call history. If someone calls me, it adds the number 20 times to "outgoing calls", "incoming calls", and "missed called". Same thing if I call someone or I get a missed call. However the "All" calls are empty no matter what. This sucks because if I get 2 missed calls, I will only be able to know one of those numbers and that is if I don't call anyone or someone doesn't call me.

Also, if I delete a certain call history (incoming calls, outgoing, etc.), it gives me a message that it is restoring user data and restarts my phone. But same problem.

Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

you mean these? (These are for the 8900, but they should work...)

PROGRAMMING & SERVICE CODES

*** WARNING *** -- Some of the programming and service codes below can damage your settings, deactivate, lock out your phone or worse. Please only use these if you are sure of what you are doing. NO ONE IN THIS FORUM INCLUDING THE AUTHOR OF THIS THREAD WILL BE HELD LIABLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS!!

NOTE: All of the codes below require you to press the {END} key at the end of the number.

##20022002 - NAM programming Be Careful!
##7678 (##PORT) - RunTime DevMap
##7738 (##PREV) - Change P_Rev. Allows you to force CDMA (Select Rev 4)
##2283 (##BAUD) - Set the data port baud rate
##2240 - S/W test
##2250 - RFNV Contents. Tons of options here. I have no idea what they do.
##1111 - EFS space (This doesn't seem to work on the 8900. The screen loses resolution and freezes...Press {END} to unfreeze)
##2222 - RF stuff displays CDMA Automatic Gain Control and Low Noise Amplifier data
##1122 - Test ringtone, vibrate, and colors. Adjust contrast and stuff.
##1133 - Be careful! Resets the phone back to factory settings.
##1144 - Change the length of the keypad tones. Navigation keys don't work here, use the numbers to change values.

#7623 (#ROAD) Roadside assistance. I'm not sure what they do, but I'm sure it will cost you.
#5625* (#LOCK*) Unlocks keypad and tells you the code (very useful for sure)

##2769737 (##BROWSER) Internet Options. This is where you can change uplink IP port
##27732726 - Software tests and stuff. Displays the date/time of firmware. Lots of cool stuff in here.
##27752345 - Battery info and modification. Be careful!

2539** - Changes authentication key. This is the A-Key or Authentication Key. Don't mess with it!

**1004 DM Mode Enable (harmless but I'm unsure what it does, maybe don't try just in case)
**1005 DS Mode Enable (same as above)
##2773 - Debug - Field test mode.
Rx = Receive power measured in dB.
Tx = Send power measured in dB.
P_Rev Protocol Revision = 6 is 1x, 4 is regular CDMA.
Ec = A measure of how strong individual connections from the tower are compared to everything that the tower is transmitting. Compares the pilot signal to the overall level of traffic, but this is a good indicator of how your connection compares to the overall level of traffic from the tower. -3 dB to -8 dB is usually a “good” Ec. When Ec gets larger, like -10 dB or -15 dB phones will start having trouble maintaining their connections, even with full signal. C = Channel. B side carriers start on 384. Will increase by 1.25MHz or 41 channels.




VERIZON SERVICE NUMBERS


NOTE: All of the codes below require you to press the {SEND} key at the end of the number.

*611 - Call Verizon customer service. I've nearly worn these keys off my phone. FREE CALL 24/7!!
411 - Information. You can actually get all sorts of cool things (restaurant listing, movie listings, etc.) from these guys, though they give you the wrong phone number about half the time. It costs $$ plus airtime for each call.
#646 (#MIN) - Stay on the line a few seconds to receive a text message displaying last bill date and total, total peak minutes, total off-peak/night minutes, total weekend minutes, total peak mobile2mobile minutes, and total off-peak mobile2mobile minutes. No more checking my balance online. This is a free text message.
#225 (#BAL) - Same as above.
#84 (#VG) - Voice Gear. A pay service that allows you to dial numbers and access information (stock quotes, sports scores, directory assistance, etc.) with your voice.
*86 (*VM) - access voice mail. Press # during your greeting, then follow the prompts. Airtime charges apply.
*228 - Select option 1 to update/program your phone. I don't think this really does anything. It does NOT update your phones firmware. Select option to to update your preferred roaming list (PRL). This tells your phone which wireless systems to use and which ones not to use. Update this every few months, especially if you travel - it may save you a lot in roaming charges if your phone is using someone else's network when a new Verizon tower is in the area. Your phone will automatically reset when it is done.
*67 +10 digit number - Disable caller id for your call. The party you're calling will see 'Unavailable' instead of your number.
*72 + 10 digit number - Start call forwarding. Calls will be forwarded to the number you enter if you do not answer after 2 or 3 rings or if you are currently using the phone.
*73 - End call forwarding.
