With Calls being rejected could be various things, it could be a carrier feature or an application provided by the carrier that prevents certain calls from coming in.
I know from personal experience, with AT&T they had an application that was on the phone that would prevent certain spam callers, and block callers that were not on your favorites list or what not.
We also have Smart Call on Samsung phones, you may want to check out this particular setting on the phone to ensure this is not set up incorrectly or active - https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00088083/
The following may help as well:
Remove Block
From the Edge screen, tap Phone . If unavailable, navigate: Apps > Phone. These instructions apply to standard mode only.
Tap the Menu icon (upper-right).
Tap Settings.
Tap Call.
Tap Call rejection.
Touch and hold the contact. Selected when a check mark is present. To select all contacts, tap the checkbox (upper left).
Tap the Delete icon (upper-right). To disable a number on the list without deleting it, uncheck the box next to the desired entry.
Also you can try this to make sure this is off:
Tap Settings. Tap Call. Tap Call rejection. Tap Auto reject list.

Ive had the exact same thing on my year old note 10 plus also i cant use my earphones it wont recognise them at all its like it happened overnight,so i had the port replaced battery replaced and phone checked for any signs of moisture and tested with a new fresh set of Samsung AKGs ...NOPE!, i was told sorry mate this is a software issue(just check all the complaints on this and other issues and now on the MONTH OLD!S20s)the only reason im not chucking the phone is it will charge via wireless charger and i could get a set of wireless buds which should work , but Samsung better sort the glitch fast or they will have lost another longstanding customer.

There are "always" problems with any update/new O.S.; luckily you haven't encountered any problems yet, but many people have experienced some. ie, you can no longer cover camera hole on front screen; AND if you start creating a text (native text, Samsung) you can't add a pic to it once you strarted writing your text. So, add pic first, write text 2nd.... Lots of annoying things like this with the new O.S. Crossing fingers that they all get fixed.

Hello! Just an update on the unlocked Note 20 Ultra on Verizon about the 5G signal... After updating to Android 11/One UI 3, not only I immediately got the 5G signal, all other minor glitches such as battery drain went away... I've noticed though that not a significant change, if any, on speed... but that is on Verizon. If you are not on a UWB spot, the speed ain't better than LTE. But problem solved! Just wish tech-support would know better...

I have a Samsung J700. old. i go to settings, communication, wifi calling, and there are three options there to choose from. i believe mine are, wifi preferred, cell preferred and cell only. i leave it in wifi preferred unless I'm in the areas near my house where the two signals fight for the phone. then i go to cell only. hope this helps.

I'm on T-Mobile. I updated today. So far all I can't do is access sounds and vibration setting. It sends me back to home screen. And some video wallpapers that worked on Android 10 need resizing to work on 11. Not it's a bit blurry. Ugh.

Update 12/19/20 I've received no email from Samsung yet. I called them twice after talking with them on 12/14. On 12/16 when I called them the lady said that it's still in process to be reviewed and I guess authorized. I asked her if I did get a replacement phone if I would be receiving a refurbished phone or a new phone. She told me I'd be getting a refurbished phone with new parts. 12/18 I called again I told the lady that I'm still waiting for the email since they told me on 12/14 it would be 24/48 hrs. She said well it looks like someone called you on 12/15 and left a voicemail. You will be issued a new phone and it is process to be mailed out in 5-7 business days. Oh and she said that they issued me a new ticket number awhile ago. Well first off I didn't receive any phone call or voicemail on 12/15 because I sure would have answered and secondly they failed to give me my new ticket number every time I've called. I also asked her if I'm getting an actual new phone or if it's refurbished. She said it's a brand new phone. I hope it's new and not refurbished! Will keep updating here until my issue has been resolved!

A truly encrypted drive will look like a completely random collection of bits. A recovery software will not be able to recover files.

This is why I will always Root. Being able to have Full control of my purchased piece of equipment is essential to my overall enjoyment. Partitioning the SDcard to help the Processor when I Overclock the device gives me the performance when I need it and sits at idle when not. But I do believe this integrated feature should be standard. At XDA we know the implications and liabilities of this process but if you stay within certain peripherals, you can really take a device to it's full potential. I think the world as a whole strive to do that with everything. Its human nature. It's the only way we Advance

when you install the Samsung music app from a fresh install. it automatically pulls in music that is stored on your phone. make sure music is in your audio folder. it doesn't matter whether its in your internal or external. your music app should find it.

Is your phone factory unlocked 🔓. if so samsung takes more time to release an update for phones that isn't carrier branded (unlocked). I'm on Verizon and my last security update was Nov, 1 2020. it takes a little longer for unlocked phones then carrier locked phones

Can you verify that the debris filter and emergency drain hose located at the front bottom of the machine have been cleaned and drained out? If so, I would be delighted to look into what we can do for you :) Just send me a private message with the full model and serial number http://bit.ly/2sSxapD
