AC Question

when i press keypad keys (e.g. inputting a pin whist calling voicemail) during an active call, the tones do not work
this only started with latest upgrade- i am using Samsung Galaxy note edge s5
 
Welcome to Android Central! Is it responding to touch, but just not registering a tone? In the Phone app, tap Menu>Settings, and check the various menus for a DTMF setting. You might have to make the DTMF tone longer.
 
the keypad works but no tones - there is no dtmf opnetion in any of the settings
as mentioned, this only started being a problem with the most recent android operating system update - prior to that there was no problm

in this forum others have had the same problem and fixed it by disabling the car mode, but that doesn't work for me
