Duo 2 Android 12L breaks calling

Anonymous

Since the Android 12L update, I have not been able to make or receive calls. Incoming goes straight to voicemail and outgoing immediately ends calls. Carrier is T-Mobile. I suspect the issue is the same at what happened with the AUS phones as listed here Android 12 Breaks Calls — ZenTalk (asus.com)

This required an update to get the calls working again. Is there such as update in the works as right now my due 2 is just a tablet that cannot make calls.

Everything else works btw even calls with WhatsApp and teams

    I had to buy a new phone myself. It's been over a month now and that is ridiculous. This really damages Microsoft standing for me in buying anything from them again. I just went back to samsung.

    Me too! I'm thinking about getting another phone now too. I was waiting to see if this issue would be resolved but I still haven't heard anything.

    I do not believe this would work with an esim. It is always loaded since Duo 2 supports dual Sim in an esim + physical Sim combination. The reason this works for physical Sim users is carrier provisioning overwrites the previous configuration on Sim changes. Loading a physical Sim does nothing to change the side by side esim carrier configuration.

    I’m still having calling issues. I have an SD2 on Google Fi using the eSIM. I turned the phone off, inserted a Verizon SIM, made a phone call, turned off the phone, removed the Verizon SIM, turned the phone on and tried to make a phone call with Google Fi and it disconnects.
