I'm in Illinois with a VZW E815 and I get the same problem with missed calls as you described.

I've seen that problem on my E815 as well.

Thanks for the lockout idea on the volume settings!

Hey, any of you guys with the E815 also have a problem with the ring setting changing on you?

For some reason, my phone likes to switch to silent mode instead of staying on vibe and ring. Its does this constantly and its annoying.

Yes, I've had this happen a number of times & with nothong else in the pocket to press the buttons either... I'm starting to think its a glitch in the phone.

And the strange thing is it always goes into Silent mode. Not Ring or Vibe but always Silent.

Oh, and not sure why I didn't mention this early -- just lock the ring style application, and that'll prevent it from changing without you opening it and typing in your security code.

I have no problem with the signal, it always seems to be at 5 bars its just my phone doesn't ring and for the caller, it goes straight to VM.

It really POed me last week because I took a day off to wait for the cable guy and I left him my cell phone number to call when he arrived (my apt intercom doesn't work). Sure enough, my phone didn't ring and it wemt straight to VM. I wasted a day for him and I miss it because of the phone.

If that's the problem, I would be *more* than willing to bet that it's the network, not the phone. I have never missed a single call on my E815 -- except when I was in sketchy service areas, or it was powered off, etc.

Anywho, I've said that before, so <shrug>. Good luck.

I don't have any problems with my E815 in the Nashville area.

My biggest gripe with my E815 right now is the inaccuracy of the charge indicator. My phone will often show three bars (full charge) after running uncharged for 48 hours, even though the battery is really over 2/3 dead at that point. If I leave it uncharged for much longer than that, the phone will be flashing "low battery" or will be completely off 12 hours later.

So, in reality, what you end up with is a charge indicator with two settings: Full or almost dead
