Delay when making a phone call

[kelyn159]

Has anyone encountered this issue, when I click on one of my contacts to place a call, sometimes it last about a minute before the phone making the action. It has a very long delay when placing a call...
Note: It just started doing it.

I've not experienced that. Could you try rebooting into Safe Mode to make sure it's not a third-party app causing interference?

I think it's an issue with the most recent phone app update. Look at the reviews, a lot of people have been experiencing the same thing since the update.

But not universal: I've no such problem.

Sometimes delays connecting come from the network (or one of the networks, if more than one is involved). Those can depend on location or affect some subscribers of a network and not others, so it's not always easy for an affected individual to work out. Especially if, as reported here, it only happens sometimes.

I can only second @codesplice here - you can eliminate user apps as a cause if it happens in safe mode. If you can spot a pattern to when/where/with whom it happens that would provide a clue. Otherwise you can try measures related to the phone app (clearing cache, installing an old version) but no guarantees as the problem may not be in your phone.

I just started having this problem this week. I usually can get one call off without a delay, but the second call can take up to a minute to finally start. The only way I have seen to make it go away is to reboot, but then after the first all it starts happening again.

Yeah reports on this seem to be picking up. You may want to add your experiences to this thread on Google's forum:

It's been escalated to Google's attention so they're looking into it. Any updates will likely be posted there.

If you have MLB at Bat installed, uninstall it. That appears to resolve the issue.
