A bug in the phone function has occurred on Android! What are the symptoms and solutions?

I like the joke that "no one will call you on your smartphone in 2021."

However, even if that is generally the case, it would be a problem if the smartphone does not have the ability to make and receive incoming calls.

If this feature is compromised, the reliability of the smartphone will be significantly reduced and it will become more frustrating. That's why I'm so worried about the new bug that blocks incoming and outgoing calls on Android devices.

Bleeping Computer reported that there is a bug in Google's app that could prevent you from making and receiving calls on certain Android devices.

Google's community manager says the bug affects "the latest update of the Google search app on Android."

It's generally a good idea to update your software to the latest version, but it's worth remembering that you should always pay attention to undiscovered bugs and instability.

Now, let me show you how to solve this problem.

How to fix phone bugs on Android

Fortunately, there is a way to fix this bug, and it's very simple. Google has issued an update to its own named app to fix a bug in the phone.

Simply install this update to make and receive calls (if you have auto-update enabled, it may already be installed). Here's how to check if this app is completely updated.

1. Open the Play Store and search for the Google app.
2. When "Update" is displayed, tap it. If the button says "Open", it's completely updated.

Which Android devices are affected by this bug?

However, if you own a non-LG smartphone, you may not need to worry too much about this issue.

Google hasn't identified the Android device affected by this bug (it's frustrating), but users have complained about LG smartphones such as the LG G7, G7 ThinQ, LG V40 ThinQ, and LG Q70. It seems that there are many from the users who are using it.

Some users have taken steps to completely uninstall the Google app to resolve the issue.

Until Google announces a formal list of affected smartphones, we have no choice but to leverage the information we get from the cases we receive from many users.

Also, update the Google app on any model to make sure your phone is connected.
