Call forwarding on iPhone4. I am sick of trying but once I input the number and go back to call forwarding, it turns off call forwarding. Any idea why

tried the simple way of call forwarding going in to settings>call forwarding> turn on call forwarding> enter number> return to call forwarding
but the status is going back to 'off' from 'on'
I also tried *61*number# but there again its failing. Can someone assist please?

Who is your carrier? Not all carriers support enabling and disabling call forwarding using the controls in Settings.

  • My samsung stratosphere is very slow to place a call.  I input the number and push CALL.  Nothing happens.  I try it again and nothing happens.  Then some time later (2-5 mins) the phone goes ahead and dials.  What is causing this delay in dialing?

    wadams5641,
    Let's add some speed to your service and ensure you can make calls without the
    delay. When was the last time you turned off your phone? Is the software up to
    date?

  • Iphone 4 during a call can't hear or be heard. But I know both the speakers and the phone call mic work fine.

    I bought an iphone 4 and have been having multiple issues since the moment I got it. My biggest issue when I received it was that the noise cancellation mic didn't work. I sent it back to the people I bought it from to fix it and they fixed the other mic but not the noise cancellation mic. So I know that one doesn't work with apps, speaker phone, that sort of thing. I've been just dealing with it and using headphones with a mic on them.
    Well once I put my sim card in and had to go through a huge debacle with AT&T to do it, I got a phone call and I couldn't hear anyone and they couldn't hear me. I tried switching it to speaker phone and using my headphones and still nothing. I first tried factory reset and network reset and it didn't do anything. So I tried the fix where you put a piece of cardboard in the phone and the other fix where you loosen and then re-tighten the grounding screw. Now I can hear the other person but only on speaker phone, the call is choppy, but I can hear them so progress! They still couldn't hear me. However, when I took the call off of speaker phone it was back to dead silence. I tried putting in my headphones to see if they could hear me, they still could not hear me even with the headphone mic. I'm not sure what else I can do!! I know the speakers and mic work because I listen to music and play games and I hear those and when recording on voice memo the mic and playback work fine.I also know that it isn't any issue with signal because it happens where ever I am, low signal or all 5 bars! I guess I'll try cleaning them and try putting a thicker piece of cardboard but I don't expect those to work. If you can help with any suggestions at all please let me know! I have been having the worst luck with this phone and i'm getting absolutely fed up.

    Hey there RJOBoston,
    Take a look the article below, it provides troubleshooting tips that should resolve the issue you’re running into with not being able to hear or be heard on calls.

    Lyall,
    I have seen this before, a long time ago (several years), and I cannot
    remember how/if we resolved it.
    If this is an impotant issue to you, I suggest that you open a case with
    BEA support.

    Peter.

    This is a rather important issue, I have seen another post with a similar problem.
    While not being a show-stopper it certainly raises concerns.
    The application works ok until the application exits (in both development and
    executable form)
    Apparently this did not happen with Tux 7.1
    It does with 8, I do not have 7.1 so I have no workaround.

  • I've got an iPad and iPhone 4S, both of which are set up for facetime. When someone calls me, both the iPad and phone ring, even though the phone is set to receive facetime calls on the number and the iPad is set for an email account. why is this?

    How can I change the setup so on the email only the iPad rings and on the phone number only the phone rings?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

    Hello all,
    I bought an iPhone 5 in the US and brought it back to Brasil. Now I'm trying to use Siri, but once I press the "home" button "voice control" appears and it only works for me to call my contacts. The manual guide tells me to go to Settings>General>Siri. At the General menu "Siri" doesn't appear. What should I do to set Siri up if it doesn't appear at settings>general?
    Thank you,
    Melanie.

    Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and make sure Siri is set to On.

        Hi benzgotcha32,
    I want you to have the ability to forward any needed emails! Let's review what trouble is preventing the messages from going out. Which device do you have that's not allowing the messages to be sent? What type of email account do you have? Are you able to create a new email and have that successfully send? I look forward to hearing back from you so we can can get this matter resolved.
    Thank you,

    Mail forwarding is usually a function provided by your email provider.  Visit their web site and check your setup there.

  • I can't seem to make n actual phone call from my phone.  I dial the number, and at the other end it rings, and the person knows it is me trying to call... but on my end of the phone is nothing at all.  Why is that?

    I can't seem to make an actual phone call from my iPhone 4S.  I dial the number, and the phone at the other end rings.  But at my end there is nothing.  No ringing.  No person trying to talk to me.  What is causing this problem?  I have got all of the current updates loaded to my phone.

    My brother had a similar problem and he went to the Apple store and they gave him a new one under warrenty...she said something about the arial, I would give it a go.

  • Can't turn off caller id in ios5

    How do I turn off caller ID in ios5?

    Just to make sure you didn't overlook the obvious (we all do it more often than we care to admit). Can you toggle the other services in the Sharing pane? Perhaps you just need to click on the padlock and authenticate before you can make changes.
    Second thing to try. Make sure System Preferences is not open. Look in the user's Home folder/Library/Caches. Find a cache item com.apple.preferencepanes.cache. Delete this item. Log the user out and log back in. Now open System Preferences and see if you can make the changes.
    Third thing to try. Here are the items that get changed in the /etc/cups/cupds.conf file when you turn Printer Sharing OFF---
    line 55 becomes
    ServerName 127.0.0.1
    lines 453 and 454 become
    #Port 631
    Listen 127.0.0.1:631
    line 581 becomes
    #BrowseAddress @LOCAL
    line 635 becomes
    BrowseInterval 0
    line 826 Allow From @LOCAL
    is deleted and the block from line 822 through 826 becomes
    <Location />
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny From All
    Allow From 127.0.0.1
    </Location>
    All these changes are taken from a modification of the default cupsd.conf as supplied with the version of CUPS Apple supplies with Tiger. The cupsd.conf that comes with version 1.2.x is most likely different. You will have to do some comparison and interpretation.
    Hope this helps.
    EDIT: Don't forget to recycle the cupsd whenever you make a change to the configuration file.
    sudo killall -HUP cupsd

    Hi, to get your iPhone  4 back to normal, here're two ways for you.
    1.  Use Dr.Fone for iOS. The free trial version can fix iPhone screen of death. The free trial version can do that, you don't have to pay.
    Just download and install this software on your computer and connect your iPhone 4 to computer with a USB cable. When it detects your iPhone 4 is abnormal, click Restart the device to get your iPhone 4 to be normal.
    2. Use iTunes to fix it.
    Step 1. Make sure that the latest iTunes is installed on your computer.
    Step 2. Plug into a USB cable to connect your iPhone4 to computer.
    Step 3. Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time for about 10s.
    Step 4. 10 seconds later, release the sleep/wake button. But continue to hold the home button until a message comes out, saying "iTunes has discovered an iPhone 4 in recovery mode, you must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
    Step 5. Click your iPhone 4 in the left sidebar to show the device control panel on the right. Then, click Summary.
    Step 6. Go to Backups section and click Restore Backup.... In the drop-down list, choose a backup file and restore to your iPhone 4
