Can't make or receive calls from iphone 4 - all i get is static

I cannot receive or make phone calls on my iphone 4 -- al i get is static.  very loud screaching...
I have rebooted my phone and updated to 7 but it still is the same.  I am extremely frustrated -- I am paying for a phone i cannot use

It sounds as if you have tried all of the user troubleshooting. You need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar at the closest Apple store and see if there is a hardware defect.

  • Can't make or receive calls on iphone 4

    Unable to make or receive calls on my iPhone 4. I went through all the steps in support, restored my phone, updated software, etc. But no luck. When I place a call, the display shows that the call connects, but I hear nothing on the speaker, and the other end can't hear me either.
    Sometimes, when I place the call, the speaker option selects itself.
    Any thoughts?

  • Can't make or receive calls with iPhone 5

    I've had issues with my iPhone 5 for the past 2 weeks where the phone function for outgoing and incoming calls does not work.
    I've worked the process with AT&T initially thinking it was their network problem, but, finally confirmed that the problem was associated with my phone.
    The SIM card has been changed.  The IOS has been verified at latest version 7.1.2.  The phone has been reset.  The phone function continues impaired.
    I've noticed that the phone has been getting warm during charging process over the past few months leading to this problem.
    Any ideas to get my phone to work other than upgrade or $199 replacement at Apple Store? 
    Pretty disappointed customer in basic expected quality from Apple...

    If setting it up as new device, without using the latest backup afterwards, does not bring the full functionality back, you'll have to get your phone serviced or checked by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider.

  • IOS5.0.1 constant error "iPhone can not make or receive calls.  Restore from iTunes":  I get this message and the phone will no longer work (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range).  help!

    All- I get this message ("iPhone can not make or receive calls. Restore from iTunes" (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range)). iPhone 4.  Newest OS.  Never happened with old OS! Cycling phone on/off does not help.  Ignoring message causes phone to cycle off then on.  After first time this happened, I restored.  Six days later...same problem!  Clearly a new fix is necessary.  Suggestions? 

    I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc).  Any suggestions?  What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

  • Help!!! I can not make or receive calls! other functions itself. Internet, sms, whatsapp work. I restored as new iphone from the phone and from itunes and still not working.

  • I can't make or receive calls in my iPhone 5(just bought second hand and unlocked), but I am able to use 3G network. If I use the same SIM card in other phone it works fine. I have tried network resetting and restore.

    I bought this cheap from an unknown persons. I have checked it is not in blacklist. And unlocked by apple.

    Those are all carrier features, so contact your cell phone provider.

  • I can't make or receive calls on my IPhone 4.

    I can't make or receive calls on my IPhone 4.  There's nothing but dead air on both ends and then it freezes.  If I can answer a call, it lasts for a few seconds then gets staticky and cuts out.  I took it to Verizon and they couldn't get it to work either.

    If Verizon, who actually had your phone in hand, was unable to get it to work, what makes you think that we users here, who have no access to your phone, could help?  You need to bring your phone to the experts who can actually run diagnostics on the phone, and that is Apple.

  • IPhone 4 on IOS 5.0.1 can't make or receive calls or send/receive SMS

    Hi there,
    Last friday, I noticed that I can't make or receive calls on my unlocked iPhone 4 on IOS 5.0.1. Until then it works fine. I can't neither send or receive SMS. The Internet connection works fine and I can surf the Internet over 3G.
    I have test the SIM on my 2G iPhone and the calls works right. I have restore the network settings and I have completely restored (including IOS) the device over iTunes but the problem persist.
    Have anyone experienced the same?
    Thanks in advance

    The resolution to my problem was a new phone. My first trip to the Genius Bar I was asked if I had done a complete restore to factory settings. I did that when I got home and the problem with using the phone was unchanged. I went back to the Genius Bar, described that I had restored to factory settings, and the screen still froze when I tried to either end a call or answer a call. They basically said it must be a hardware problem and gave me a new phone. My phone was 3 months old so it was still under warranty.

    Nope, nothing I can do.
    I do not plan to ever release an update either because like everyone else here I am just a user like you.
