3GS turns off while calling.

My new iPhone continues to turn off while I am in the middle of phone calls. It then after my methodical tapping on the screen and the home button it turns back on. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore...
Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
If that does not help... See Here:

  • IPhone 3gs turns off while having 60-80% battery

    hello, iphone 3gs turns off while there is enough battery to be consumed. Round about 60 to 80 percent battery is more enough to keep alive an iphone for a whole day long. what suggestion you recommend, help asap......

    You could try to disconnect and after a few minutes reconnect the battery. That theoretically resets the phone BIOS and is supposed to help regarding the reboot issue (see post by NIKKOH007) http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2471090&start=2055&tstart=30
    Or replace the battery altogether with a newer, iOS 4 compatible battery. At iFixit.com they have come to the conclusion that not all batteries in the 3GS are necessarily iOS4.x compatible or a battery defect may be exposed after updating.

    or restore the phone from your back up,before you encounter the problem or restore as a new device

  • My phone turns off while making calls

  • While talking on my Iphone, is there a way from having it turn off while in my pocket

    While talking on my Iphone, is there a way from having it turn off while in my pocket?

    Huh? You're post doesn't make a lot of sense. Are you talking on your phone? Or is it in your pocket? Are you using a headphone? Do you mean the entire phone is turning off? Or do you just mean the call is ending?
    Try locking the screen by tapping the power button on the top right of the phone before you put it in your pocket.

  • IPhone 3Gs Turn OFF suddenly and Critical

    Hello everybody,
    How may you assist me about my iPhone 3Gs.
    My iPhone suddenly turn off while the battery is recharged full condition.
    it's turn off suddenly without nothing and i tried to turn on (hold on the power button) but doesn't work. As long was turn off the body of iPhone became hot the temperature i afraid to be exploding like a boom because temperature almost 40 C.
    i bought it new from legal provider mobile since february 2010. yes warranty but how's happen?
    Thank you for helping and thread this message.

    That just happened to me today. I found the solution in the discussions....
    Press the sleep button (aka power button) and the home button for 5-15 seconds (it took mine 12 seconds). The Apple logo appeared...took about one or two full minutes to boot up, and then my home screen appeared as usual. No data loss at all.
    The post where I read this said to ignore the slider that comes up after you press the sleep and home buttons. However, when I did it, no slider appeared.

  • Can you turn off phone calls and texts??

    I am traveling to Buenos Aires from the United States for a minimester.. I called my cellular carrier and they do not have a plan to save me money in regards to phone calls and texts. I have the app What'sApp so I can use a data plan they offered me to keep in contact while I am way, however I am still afraid of racking up charges in texts and phone calls. Is there any possible way to turn off phone calls and text and strictly use the data plan they have given me?
    I have the iPhone 5. Thank you.

    FYI, that won't work. AirPlane disables all radio communications.
    The best way to do this is to divert all calls.
    Go to Settings
    Phone
    call forwarding and switch to O
    Type in your carriers default voicemail number. Because it is the default number for voicemail is an exception in their list you won't be charged for the diversion.
    remember to switch this off when you get back.
    Then go to messages turn off send as SMS and MMS.
    That should avoid most of the charges. Its inevitable that you'll get some but hopefully if you're careful it will be minimal.
    Have you thought of using a local sim while you're there, you're iMessage will still work and your home SIM and account will be inactive so you won't get any unforseen chardges?
    Good luck

  • Turn off phone calls, keep text capability on.

    Does anyone know if it's possible to turn off phone calls, but keep your text messaging capability on? We are travelling internationally and texting is a lot cheaper.

    Texting is a portion of the cellular service, and I am not aware of a way to remove one without the other. While you can turn off texting, if you were to turn off cellular service, then texting would be turned off as well. You can turn off cellular data and roaming, and that would turn the cellular off, but then you could still use iMessage via Wi-fi, however if any of your friends are non-iPhone users, you would not be able to get messages from them.

  • Display turns off while watching a movie!

    why does the display on my X1 Carbon turn off while watching a film on battery? I have never had a laptop do that before. Surely when a movie is running it should no not to count the period of inactivity and trun of the display?!! This is meant to be a modern machine.

    Actually, Plex does the best job by placing a black background to the internal iMac screen it's called Blanking.
    However that does not turn off the backlit which is very bright on the iMac 24" also the internal screen will draw more power that way.   As you probably know running bootcamp you can turn off the internal screen while watching a movie on the external.  This isn't a hardware limitation, I hope Lion has this feature.

    Do you have backups of all the data on the startup drive? If not, do nothing else until you've backed up that data, if you still can.

  • S890 screen turns off while playing games

    I bought this phone a week ago.Everything about this phone is awesom except one thing. The screen turns off while playing games automatically,which is really annoying. Is there any fix for this??

    Graphics card springs to mind;
    also, in your game settings, in either options or video settings (or similar). Are the settings correct for your card. I know on a low end PC, "full hardware acceleration" can cause crashing.
    I'd still think, it's more a graphics related problem. If you have a big flat screen mintor (e.g 24,27 or even 30") then that, in it's own right needs a good card. Add the game to it and you may have problems. I do take it you have compared the specs with what's required on the box (of the game) and "about this mac/"more info"). All the best.

  • HT1688 My phone turned off while i was texting. I not sure what happened because the battery was at 72%. I tried turning it on but nothing happened.

    MY phone turned off while texting battery at 72%. I tried turning it on but screen stays black.

    First, try to reset the phone by pressing the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not work, connect in recovery mode, explained here:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore

    Not enough free storage space can slow your Mac down. Click your Apple menu icon top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac > More Info > Storage. Make sure there's at least 15% free disk space.
    Anti virus software, as well as third party Mac cleaning utilities such as MacKeeper  and CleanMyMac can also slow your Mac down.
    Check to see if the startup disk needs repairing.
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If DU reports errors, restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X Recovery to repair the startup disk.
    Make sure to back up all important data first before using OS X Recovery.

  • 3GS turning off when Camera Icon clicked

    Whenever I click onto my Camera Icon.... my 3GS turns off :-/
    i've just put the 5.0 on it but bought it 2nd hand, I got told it was working fine apart from the Vibrate which is fine,
    i've just set it all up now but when I click the Camera, it just turns off,
    why? and how can I fix it?

    Thanks for the response.
    I am on the latest itunes offers me. The apps are all up to date.
    I do clear the multitask bar often and this will happen regardless of whether there are 10 apps running or just the one. It will still crash and the battery will still be at least 30% or more.
