My husband and I recently bought 2 droids and he hasn't experience problem with his like I have. First it drop every call I made did do the up date I read on forums. Since I did that no drop calls when talking. Next problem is on phone with my boss another call came in disconnected her and other call was connect. Does anyone know how to resolve this problem. Do love my droid just need to figue out how to resolve this problem now.

If I'm understanding your questions correctly, then there is a known issue with long hair and the proximity sensor on the phone. As far as I know, there's no good solution other than pulling your hair away from your ear before using the phone.

First, welcome to the forum, dgmace! You'll find this to be a very friendly place full of great people and information!

And as to your issue, LtKen is absolutely correct. There are known issues with long hair / sideburns throwing off the proximity sensor. And I know this sounds silly, but its also worth a try to switch which side of your face you put the Droid on when in call. Sometimes that helps. Hope you enjoy your time here!

Disconnect

This was the first problem I was having with my phone is all calls being dropped. Problem 1. Since doing the update I am not having problems with. Problem 2 is talking with call 1 then second call coming in while on call 1 and I get disconnect from call 1 and call 2 is connected. Is this call farward feature I need to address. Thanks for post :icon_ banana:
