  1. Keeps dropping calls. Even had local Verizon tech look at phone. The third method worked once and later the same problem again. Very frustrating!!

  2. I think it’s incredibly sad to have a device as nice and expensive as the s22 ultra and not be able to make or recieve calls at the two places I’m at the most! It worked fine at home and work for first few weeks of having phone now I have to just text or drive somewhere and switch network carriers manually and hope it decides to work. I’ve only had iphones except this phone and besides this issue I love my ultra but not being able to make or recieve calls at home is pretty much like not having a phone.

  3. My 22 Ultra has recently started dropping calls, which is very annoying and frustrating, especially when you’re in the middle of a very important conversation.
    I have rebooted my phone following the instructions above, in the hope this will work but this has not resolved the issue.
    I have also tried to wipe the cache but have been unsuccessful even following the instructions above.

  4. I was having problems since the Android 13 update with One ui 5 with calls cutting off after 10 minutes.
    Changed the Network from 5g to 2/3 g and it appears to have solved the problem.
    Thank you for a very helpful top

  5. Over the last week I keep having problems with calling. It will dial, ring once of twice then disconnect. When I try to answer, no one is there. I have to turn my phone completely off and leave it off for a few then turn it back on for it to work. This just started after getting 2 updated last week.

    1. Yes! I am having the exact issue! So frustrating! My phone isn’t even a year old! This should not be happening!

  6. This phone has speaker issues and drops calls telling me I’m not connected to a network when the toggle is off for wifi calling. So frustrating not even a year old. About to get rid of this phone

  7. My phone started dropping calls last week after the software update, so incredibly frustrating.

    I tried the above, but could not clear the cache because every time I press the two buttons together (+ volume and power button) the phone just starts up like normal, anyone have any tips on this?

  8. Same problem here and Samsung wont fix it without me paying. I’m PISSED this is obviously an issue with the phone why should I have to pay!?
