911 Calls

San Francisco:Tech giant Microsoft has fixed a Teams bug that led to failed 911 calls on devices using Android 10 or later, media reports say. A Reddit user discovered that having Teams installed, but not signed in, would prevent emergency calls from going through, citing XDA Developers, Engadget reported. The phone would say a call was active and ring once, but never properly initiate the connection -- call logs would show nothing. "While all Android calling apps will try to create a PhoneAccount class instance in the operating system, Teams was creating instances every time a user started the app 'cold' -- that increased the chances of a sorting problem that stopped calls from going through," the report said.

In addition to the Microsoft patch, Google is delivering an Android platform update on January 4 that should address its side of the problem. Users can delete and reinstall Teams to clear any excess PhoneAccount instances, and staying logged in should prevent any mishaps.
