6 plus turns off during calls

i am on my second 6plus and having the same issue. My issue is that the phone shuts off 20% of the time during calls. The phone will be dark for 20 seconds and then the apple logo appears to start back up, like it is rebooting. After the logo reappears the phone home screen comes back up and the caller is still there. So I don't ever loose the call, I just loose the ability to hear or saying anything. Plus the phone is dark like it is completely turned off. I know another phone will not fix this, anyone know the software issue? sprint is the carrier

Hello Mwcourter,
Having your device replaced multiple times can certainly be frustrating. After reviewing your post, it sounds as though your device is resetting during use. I have located an article that can help with software issues. Have you attempted to restore the device to factory settings without restoring from a backup? Test the issue on a new installation, and make sure that it works. Then use the same article to restore from your backup to either verify it still works, or isolate the issue to the backup itself.

Screen often turns off during calls - Unable to turn back on

Hello,
Often times during calls my screen will turn off - it does not respond to pushing the home button and will only turn back on if I press the sleep button repeatedly 6 or 7 times. Is there a fix for this? Does apple know about this bug?

Following an older post I have done the following:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
This worked for me. I hope this helps and thank you to Texas Mac Man who I got this info from. :-)

IPhone 5 speaker turns off during call

32gb iPhone 5. When on speaker during call, switches automatically back to iPhone inadvertently. On call with only one person. No incoming calls causing issue.
Tested on other calls by putting phone on solid surface without touching. Not a PIBPAC error. Please advise if you're experiencing similar issue and how you solved for it. Thank you

I figured out a solution. Apparently it was a software malfunction. I got the toll free number off the web (1-800-MY-APPLE) and called and gave them my information. They gave me three different options to send my phone in for repair or replacement. The entire replacement process took a out 5 days from the day I called to the day I received the new phone and ended up costing me absolutely nothing. The apple support team was very friendly, courteous, and knowledgable. A software malfunction sounds like it could be your issue, you may want to look into this! Hope this helped!

Screen not turning off during call

When I am holding the phone up to my ear, the screen goes black, but if I move it away just a little bit the screen lights back up. So during calls I am hitting keys on the touchpad, placing the call on hold, muting calls, etc.
This was not a problem on my 3g. Is there a way to fix this?

This is a proximity sensor known issue, will be addressed by apple in the next update (4.1), they still in the beta3 testing:

Nokia 5530 - turns off during calling

Hi!
I have a problem with my nokia 5530. If somebody calls me after i pick up a call, phone is turnig off. Same situation when im making a call. Only puting a phone in loudspeaker mode (or with headset) is solving that problem. I've tried a hard reset, updating, etc.
Please help I dont want to be sad on christmas.
Solved!

You're not alone - it seems there are quite a lot of 5530s with such a problem.
Here are links to some of the similar threads (you might find something useful):
/discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&thread.id=156140&view=by_date_ascending&page=10
/discussions/board/message?board.id=smartphones&message.id=182183&query.id=458600#M182183
I have the same problem - even went to repair center. They said it was some loose part/connector and it looked that phone was fixed - I was able to make/receive calls with it - for a day. Then the problem reappeared and tomorrow I'll go again to complain. I hoped it was some firmware issue - but it seems I got a malfunctioning unit - so I hope they'll replace it.
Therefore I advise you to send yours to repair.

My LCD does not turn off during the call. I have a iphone 4. What do i do?

You may have a defective proximity sensor but try some basic troubleshooting first...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

Cleaned files and apps with "app cleaner" and now MacBook Air turns off during start up. What happens? What can I do? Please help

Cleaned files and apps with "app cleaner" and now MacBook Air turns off during start up. What happens? What can I do? Please help

The "app cleaner" managed to do bad things to the file system so that it is unable to boot any longer.
This is the primary reason I always recommend that any of those so called "cleanup" apps never be used. They do more harm then good.
Try a safe boot by holding down the shifgr key when you hear the boot chime. Maybe that can fix the damage.
Let us know what happens.

Iphone turned off during factory reset

Apologies if this has been raised a million times before, i have tried to search for an answer..
As the title says my phone turned off during a factory reset as the battery was obviously low. probably happened 1-2 minutes into it actually.
Now it wont get past the apple logo screen. I have tried to reset the phone using the home + power key but nothing happens. it turns off then when i turn it back on it goes back to the apple logo screen, then will turn off.
Ive plugged the phone into my laptop and that wont read it either.
I hope i havent ruined the phone by it turning off during factory resetting ? Can anyone suggest anything to fix this problem ?
thanks

See if you force the phone into recovery mode:
Turn off your phone: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the the iPhone to turn off. If you cannot turn off your phone using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When your phone turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons. Then, leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. After restoring from backup, you must sync to restore your iTunes content.

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.

[SOLVED] USB Harddrive via fstab turned off during Boot - Error

Hello^^
I'm trying to mount my external USB Drive.
I put the following line in fstab:
/dev/sdb1 /media/Musik ext4 noauto,user,default 0 1
I only want to start the Harddive occasionally.
The problem is, when the drive is completly turned off during boot I get the following error:
No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sdb1
Possibly non existend device?
I thought that the noauto Option should prevent fstab from mounting the hdd???
regards

PS: Manual mounting works without any problems...

Let me give you a hand then. The following I have in my /etc/udev/rules.d/11-media-by-label-auto-mount.rules, and what it does is:
-- pick the name of a drive,
-- create a dedicated /media/mountpoint name (certainly, "mountpoint" is replaced by the name of your drive),
-- mount the drive on boot,
-- unmount the drive on shutdown and delete the /media/mountpoint.
KERNEL!="sd[a-z][0-9]", GOTO="media_by_label_auto_mount_end"
# Import FS infos
IMPORT{program}="/sbin/blkid -o udev -p %N"
# Get a label if present, otherwise specify one
ENV{ID_FS_LABEL}!="", ENV{dir_name}="%E{ID_FS_LABEL}"
ENV{ID_FS_LABEL}=="", ENV{dir_name}="usbhd-%k"
# Global mount options
ACTION=="add", ENV{mount_options}="relatime"
# Filesystem-specific mount options
ACTION=="add", ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="vfat|ntfs", ENV{mount_options}="$env{mount_options},utf8,gid=100,umask=002"
# Mount the device
ACTION=="add", RUN+="/bin/mkdir -p /media/%E{dir_name}", RUN+="/bin/mount -o $env{mount_options} /dev/%k /media/%E{dir_name}"
# Clean up after removal
ACTION=="remove", ENV{dir_name}!="", RUN+="/bin/umount -l /media/%E{dir_name}", RUN+="/bin/rmdir /media/%E{dir_name}"
# Exit
LABEL="media_by_label_auto_mount_end"
Plenty of handy examples you can find in /lib/udev/rules.d/ and modify them so they meet you needs. I hope it clarifies the matter a bit.
