Whenever I am on a call, I can try ending it by tapping the Red Circle to disconnect. The Red Circle vanishes, but the call will not end until I unlock the screen.

This just started happening over the last month or two.

Is there a way for me to undo this "feature"? It's more like a bug to me.

By this short reply, I take it that you think something that I recently installed is causing this issue.

How do I put a phone in Safe Mode?

Can I make and receive calls in Safe Mode?

Even when the other side ends the call?

It appears to disconnect if they end the call. I don't know if they always end the call because most of my calls are with customers that I don't know well enough to troubleshoot the issue with.

If I don't unlock the screen after hanging up, the CALL ICON stays visible on the System Tray up top. It won't go away until there is a timeout (somewhere between 30 seconds and 2 minutes) or until I unlock the phone screen to see what is going on.

By your response, I take it that this is not something new that Android or Samsung has rolled out.

So, I did that, not thinking it would make any difference.

But, I've had 2 calls today since then, and neither of them has had this issue.

I think your solution fixed it! Thank you!
