After digging through a bunch of guides and recommendations by experts and OEMs, here are a few ways to fix the call getting disconnected automatically on your LG Velvet 5G.
Check for Network strength
Are calls getting disconnected automatically? Call drops? Inferior call quality or voice is breaking or it isn’t audible? All this can happen if the network strength in your LG Velvet 5G is on the lower side. You can check the current network strength on the status bar on your phone. It can be found denoted either by a bunch of bars arranged in an ascending order or a right-angled triangle. It goes without saying, the more the merrier.
Check if it is just you or others too
You just saw that the network is okay (but not great) which should be enough to make and receive calls but you aren’t able to do it. Why? The best way to find the culprit is by zeroing the list of possible reasons. The first thing you need to do is to verify if the call connectivity issue that you are facing is just affecting you or everyone else using the same carrier.
The results are quite self-explanatory. If it is just you, there’s something wrong with your LG Velvet 5G. But if it is everyone, it could be a carrier issue that should solve in some time.

Be it less network coverage in your locality or if there’s something wrong on your end such as if the network reception antenna is faulty or so on.
Clear Phone App Cache [ Call getting disconnected automatically on LG Velvet 5G ]

Port to a different Carrier
Your current telecom carrier is working fine but there are network issues in your locality be it the office or at home, etc. If you happen to have issues with your current carrier, porting to a new one can fix the problem. It is a lot easier to retain the phone number and port from Vodafone to AT&T (for instance) or a combination of any other carrier that serves quality services in the area you live in.
Depending upon which country you live in, the porting method can differ, and thus, ask your existing carrier for details.
