Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / UK Group / November 2006Strange problem - Nokia handset making calls by itself!
I don't know if anyone's come across this one before. My daughter has a Nokia (3310, I think). We just discovered it has been making calls at random times of the day and night to a number in its address book. She is definitely not initiating thecalls herself, and wasn't aware of it until the people complained about getting calls in the middle of the night! She deleted the number, but it's still happening. She's an O2 subscriber (PAYG). O2 couldn't help further than confirming calls had been made. Any ideas? Steve > I don't know if anyone's come across this one before.

I'm a little puzzled as to how a phone can call a number that has been deleted. O2 confirm that calls were made by the number. Can they verify the IMEI of the handset too?

I'll have to ask O2 about the IMEA - though that would suggest that the sim was cloned or something? If that was so, it would be very unlikely another phone was calling this number that she had.

I need to check on voice activation - it's with my daughter at all times - it happens while she's asleep or even in the classroom at school.

No, pretty sure not - she hasn't been calling the number for some time Steve > I don't know if anyone's come across this one before. My daughter has > a Nokia (3310, I think).
