> and my absolute favorite making a call which would dial the number and then about a second later immediately hang up.

Is it your phone hanging up or are you calling an iPhone in do not disturb mode, in which case you have to call twice for it to go through (because their phone is automatically hanging up on you)

So it was pretty bizarre. Basically as soon as I punched the "Dial" button it would show the "modal dialog" of the number being dialed and then immediately hang itself up.

It happened pretty inconsistently, but I managed to make it happen against another person - who also had a Pixel phone so I don't think it was related to the "Do Not Disturb" mode. I'd assume DND would at least put you through to voicemail though.
