[dialer-app] Can't hang up phone calls

[themeles]

Recently I had a problem with hanging up. I don't think it was just with incoming calls but in that case I was able to reproduce it. I have all the recent updates installed and I think the problem only occurred after the update to OTA-7.

- Somebody calls me
- Name appears in the dialog and I take off
- The dialer app opens but doesn't show the name nor number nor the calling time but the call works
- It is not possible to hang up the call by pressing the red button
- I close the dialer app, the green bar at the top appears
- I reopen it, at this point I might be able to hang up the call otherwise I have to redo the closing

I couldn't find the combination which led to this issue.

Could be related to bug #1377996.

--------- UX comment -----------

The dialer should always show the contact who is calling. Also, it should always be possible to hang up the call.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Yes, this is becoming my number one most annoying issue on my Bq Aquaris 4.5. This happens on most of my outgoing phone calls and if I believe quite often when receiving phone calls as well.

I had this happen to me once on a Bq E5. It hasn't happened again and I wouldn't know how to reproduce it though. It was an incoming call.

Confirmed on arale rc-proposed. It happens rather frequently on incoming calls. Similarly it also happens that the dialpad stops responding too during the call.

Actually my comment might be related to bug 1528668
