Auto dialing on Bluetooth

[larrycfc]

Suddenly, every time I get in the car and start up, my phone dials itself and displays on the car audio screen as an incoming call - from itself. I have to click the hangup button to get back to my audio. Bluetooth worked properly until a few days ago. I've tried removing the device and reinstalling to no avail. This is Samsung Galaxy S6.

Wow, that's weird. You aren't running any automation apps like Tasker or AutomateIt, are you?

No. I'm not aware of any changes to my apps to cause this.

That's what happens to my BT system in my car when I am connecting VoIP (Skype, etc). Can you check to see that your VoIP apps are not engaging?

It was apparently my Ring Central app, indeed, VOIP related. I normally use that just to retrieve office messages but an updated version may have been initiating these calls.
