Calling Lively flip phone

When I call my dads lively flip phone from my iPhone 13 the call always fails. Oddly, it connects on his end and he hears me but I cannot hear him.

We contacted Lively and found out that there was an update to the phone. They are able to send a signal to the phone to install the update, which is the only way to update the phone. We purchased the phone 15 months ago and had not received any notification that there was an update. All works perfect now since the upgrade. Good luck with your issue.
