Remote Call

Starting yesterday afternoon, all of my calls are coming into my Galaxy S7 as "Remote Call." What is this, and why is it happening? More importantly, how do I stop it?

Spoke to level 2 tech. She was aware of issue. On HER end, she REMOVED advanced calling feature and then re-added it. Problem fixed! And yes --- Advanced calling/wifi calling is still working on my phone. Enjoy!

That didn't help. A software update is what is going to fix this. It is annoying since I have to hit the back button to be able to end a call. I don't have the calling feature enabled on my tablet or my watch and yet it still does it. #verizonwireless needs to resolve this problem with #messages+ quick becuase it is stupid that I have to deal with this.

I just talked to Verizon and turning off Advanced Calling and that was a quick fix for now.

The problem is we shouldn't have to turn any feature off to make our equipment work correctly.

How do you remove and reinstall something that isn't an app?

Thank you very much. I use Wi-Fi calling at work, and missed having it

since I turned off advanced calling. I'll have that fixed today!

Have a great Memorial Day weekend.

DIVEANDTELL, this is a mystery to us too! Did you recently update the software on your device or download a new application to it? Have you powered your phone off/on since this issue started happening?
