Hello,

I'm having a problem with my galaxy s6, the Dialpad isn't working during a phone call.

For example, when calling my local poker room it says "press 2 to connect to the lobby" when I press 2 nothing happens, I've tried multiple and even 800 numbers and no luck

Recently wiped cache partition, hard reset nothing it working.

Galaxy S6 Verizon version

Bring the phone to the carrier. It could be a defective phone, it could be a problem with the way they have your account set up. (Make sure you back everything up first - see Backing up an Android Device - some carriers will just hand you a working phone so you don't have to spend all day sitting there while they try to fix yours.)

It rarely works at times.

Sometimes asked to enter number using dial pad.
How do I get a dial pad to show at all times during a call?
I cannot find "DTMF tones" in settings

THANK YOU!!! Just helped a coworker I sold my Note 3 to. Only side note:

At least on the Note 3 you have to go to the phone app first then go to the settings before you can find those options.

Super helpful though. Thanks

I changed the DTMF tones to LONG from Normal, and still the number pad won't allow me to select options on phone trees, but only some companies; I can call my insurance company, for instance, but not the city offices. I can call Medicare but not Toyota. I took the phone in to have someone else try the same companies that won't work on my phone, and it works fine for them. So now I can't say my phone never works, but it never works for some companies. And I can't say it's only the company, because others can call them, just not me. I'm baffled!
