1/8" out during phone calls - sometimes I get audio and sometimes I don't

When I have my headphones on (no mic built into the headphones), and I get a phone call or make a phone call, I can hear the person through my earbuds. I speak into the bottom of the phone. This is perfect. However, in my car I use a 1/8" out to the stereo's aux in. Music plays great, but when there's a call, I get a ringer coming out of the phone, not the car, and the audio is coming from the phone; I have to hit speaker phone (not overly safe while driving) and try to listen from the iphone speaker. Does anyone have any clue why this is?

Hi -
I'm fighting the same battle with my dw's Droid X - I've been working w/the level 1 and level 2 techs and am finding all sorts of oddities. Apparently, my son is having similar problems on a dumb phone (Samsung Convoy), so I suspect the problem may be with networking. They refreshed messaging tonight, and we're hoping that resolves the issue w/texts being delayed. The issue w/voicemail? Nothing yet. The *228 issue resulted in failure to program successfully, so that wasn't the right way to go. But in the words of the great Erma Bombeck, the grass is always greener over the septic tank - I hear that Sprint, Virgin, and AT&T all have this issue at times as well, with similarly mysterious origins. Networking is now looking at the ticket that was opened to see what the issues are, and I'll keep y'all posted as to what might be going on.

  • Screen Blanking Out During Phone Calls - Solution

    Previously I noticed many posters complaining about a problem with their iPhone screen blacking out during phone calls. I think I may have found the solution, or at least a solution. I have been advised by the Apple Store technicians that the case I use (and indeed, many cases that are sold in the Apple Store), are so opaque that they block the sensor found near the earpiece. This is the sensor that tells the iPhone screen to black out when it is next to your ear, and to light up when it is away from your ear. Because it cannot sense through the case, it still thinks it is next to your ear and hence keeps the screen blacked out. And sure enough, when I took my iPhone out of the case, the problem disappeared.
    Now here is the question - has anyone got experience with a good case that does not cause the above problem? And those who do have a problem case - have you been able to return or exchange it with the manufacturer?

    You have this product - which is specifically designed for the iPhone 3G?
    http://www.iskin.com/revo2_features.html
    This is the case I've used with my iPhone 3G for the last 6 months or so with no problem.
    There is an iSkin Revo for the first generation iPhone, which is not designed for the iPhone 3G since the proximity sensor and light sensor with the iPhone 3G are in a different location than the location for these sensors with the first generation iPhone.

  • Memorizing number entered by keypad during phone call

    I don't know how to memorize number entered by keypad during phone call. When call ends, the number is lost, cannot recall it after by taping twice on CALL. Anybody knows how? Is there a simple way to do it? Thanks in advance. Take care.

    Got it. During the call, instead of tapping the keypad, tap Add Call - then tap the keypad button at the bottom, enter the number, then tap the 'add contact' icon/button (bottom left of this keypad, but not the other keypad), then you can tap Create New Contact or Add to Existing Contact. After that, you can save the contact then cancel out (so you don't actually call the number). You can do all of that while the call is ongoing.
    Alternatively, click the home button, then tap the Notes app icon and enter the number into a note.
    The advantage of the first method is that you can later dial the number just by tapping it, whereas if it's in a note, you can't directly dial the number from there.

  • My iphone keeps hanging out during a call

    My iphone keeps hanging out during a call; sometimes 5 to 6 times during one call.

    Hanging out during a call?  Sounds like a teenager.   Or do you mean hanging up?
    You're sure you're not hitting it with your chin or something?

  • My iPhone is acting up again; freezing up during phone calls and now the head phone jack intermittently doesn't work.

    I got my iPhone 5 back in February 2013 and for the most part of the year I enjoyed it. Then I started having issues with it. First of all the WiFi randomly quit working. I didn't even update it. So I tried updating it, resetting, and restoring it. While it was under warranty I tried getting the issue fixed, but Apple CS blew me off saying it was accidental damage and I should have gotten Apple Care. This time Verizon covered their *** and replaced the phone for me even though it was out of their 6 month warranty period. I think I posted this experience before.
    Now my iPhone is acting up again. It first started freezing up during phone calls and now the head phone jack intermittently doesn't work. Again, resetting, restoring, and updating it did not fix these issues.
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    The original issue they didn't state exactly why it was Accidental Damage. After running through some troubleshooting, they just stated it was Accidental Damage and that I should file a claim with my insurance, and that Apple Care would have covered it; then closed the request.
    I've tried resetting settings, restoring it as new, and that was a no go. When it freezes up during calls I also have to perform a hard reset by pressing and holding both the power and the home buttons to get it functioning at all again(just completely freezes, won't respond to touch or home button.) I noticed that the proximity sensor isn't responding as well, so I have to tilt it away from my ear while in a call to keep from pressing the buttons on the touchscreen with the side of my face. I avoid phonecalls now, and text exclusively.
    I don't live anywhere near a Genius Bar so I'm stuck with the online support to Apple. And since I don't have a landline, I get charged for their phone support so I tend not to use it.
    Getting two lemons in a row seems coincidental so I'm wondering if it's a bad batch Verizon got then distributed out.

  • My new 32gb iPhone 5 gets too hot during phone calls. Is this normal?

    My new 32gb iPhone 5 gets too hot during phone calls. Is this normal?

    Mine will get hot mostly if I'm in an area with poor reception.  The phone will juice up the power output to lock onto a signal and will cause it to get hot and battery will drain much faster.

  • My 3GS crashes during phone calls over about 3 minutes, even after the upgrade to 5.0

    My 3GS crashes during phone calls over about 3 minutes, even after the upgrade to 5.o

    I've also got this annoying problem, but it seems to vary how long the phone wants to last before crashing - i think the longest conversation i've had with iOS4 is 15 minutes and it was an important phone call (my son was in hospital at the time and i was away on business)
    i was hoping that iOS4.2 would fix the problem, but alas nothing but more crashing..
    being a user of Apple products since 1984, having this trouble is pretty disappointing as i used to believe that Apple made a quality product..

  • How do I correct mistakes while entering #s on keypad during phone call?

    How do I correct mistakes while entering #s on keypad during phone call?

    You mean when actively on the line interacting with an automated system on the other end?  You don't. Or, rather, it's up to the system on the other end. When you tap a number, the tones are sent over the line immediately. You can't "undo" it.

  • Stop Messaging tones during phone calls

    How can I stop the messaging tones from going off in my ear during a phone call when a messsage is received by my phone? Can apple just make the phone make a beep &amp; vibrate or something during a phone call? It is very annoying &amp; to me, the biggest problem I have with the iPhone.

    There's no phone setting to silence alerts during phone calls.  You can suggest this to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • SPA 525G Phones rebooting during phone calls

    Hi,
    My office uses a SPA 525G system and recently phones have been randomly rebooting during phone calls, causing the calls to drop. I have seen previous forums on various sites about this being a common problem but still do not have a clear answer on what a good solution might be.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Are you using The Bluetooth on SPA525G? I find that this happens when I have BT connected to my iPhone

  • N8 - touch-screen still active during phone calls,...

    I've made a few calls with my N8, and I'm finding that the touch-screen is still active when I hold the phone to my ear. I've accidentally hung up on people, or have inadvertently activated other apps. Is this something I can fix in tools?
    The sound during calls is also very low (even at maximum volume), which compounds the above problem even more, as I push the phone closer to my ear.
    If nothing else, the N8 should be able to function perfectly as a phone, and this is really frustrating - I never had this problem with other phones.
    Also, on the 2nd use of the photo edit program, it took a long time to save the photo, and then the phone froze. Is anyone else having problems with this?

    I too fact these problems i.e touch-screen still active during phone calls leading to unintended "hold" on the calls or screens navigating else where. Yes, the side lock bar helps, but then it is not very handy way for a costly model to be designed. Even the older cheaper nokia touch screen model did not have this problem. Let NOKIA people respond to it.
    Yes, the sound is too low even at the maximum. Nokia support centre plead helpless.
    I think we all made a big mistake in investing in this costly handset.
