Can't not call or text om my iphone

I have an i-phone 4S. I put a new sim card in to activate it i was able to text and make calls, then I contacted my service provider to swap my old number to the new sim. Now when I turn the phone on it will recognise my network but I can't make calls or send texts. I have tried resetting and stuff, turning flight mode on and off etc but nothing works. Does anyone have any other suggestions for me to try please?

also tried my brothers sim in my phone, it was fine and my sim worked fine in his phone...I

Why can i not call or text message anyone?

I've just received my upgrade to an iPhone 5. However, i cannot send or receive text messages or phonecalls. My imessage is working, but is apparently showing up as my email to recipients.

Nope, can't be done. We have multiple threads on this now. Maybe a future upgrade. Tell apple about it...http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

My iphone is gray or black it is functioning but you can not see the screen so I can not call or text or anything

My iphone is gray or black it is functioning but you can not see the screen so I can not call or text or anything, I have a child that is very ill and I have to have access to a phone at all times can someone help me? It happened one other time when I plugged it in to my to listen to music. I know it is working it said something on voice control. I tried the press the circle button and the top button but the screen only turned white?

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

Not recieving calls or texts on my iphone. Just noticed this about 4 hrs ago. Help!

I just noticed that I am not receiving calls or texts on my iphone. I am able to call out and receive voice mail.. I tried turning it off and back on, and also took out the SIM card and replaced it. Still not working. Any suggestions?

Hey weatherlover!
Wow! I hope the weather is great where you're at and not affecting your phones! That sure is a problem that you are having. Let's see if we can get it fixed.
Now, are you not getting ALL calls or is it just some? Is this mainly indoors? Signal strength may vary indoors just based on the building and sometimes the call will not be able to find your phone and result in a simple voicemail notification. Also, have you made sure like Ann154 stated that your phones are programed correctly? What happens on the one device when you try and make a call? Do you get an error or any error when send/receiving a text? Let us know!
Thanks!

My iPhone 5 has lost network coverage. Wifi is still ok just can't receive calls or text messages (iMessages are ok though? ). I've re set network settings but that hasn't helped.

Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get? Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

Apple is great!
Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get? Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).
I compose an iMessage with the destination as my email address and I attach 2 photos I want on my PC. I send them several times from my iPhone 5C but they never arrive. I look at my ipad later and realize that it's iMessage app is getting ( and swallowing) these emails. I then turn the ipad off. Still can't get the photos through because iphone is now getting them on it's iMessage. I turn off the iMessage feature and try to send photos from text msging. Phone tells me it can't send photos unless iMessage it turned on. What happened to regular MMS text messaging? I go and try to send photos as an email attachment and see that there is no option to attach from the stupid email program. I look up online to learn about the brave new world of apple attachments and send them.
Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?
The email program on my iphone is not configured to remove messages from the server.
If iMessage is turned off I don't have the issue.
Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

Why can I not call a live person ofr support - this is frustrating.

Why can I not import the videos from my iPhone 4 onto my desktop (Windows Vista)? When I plug in it imports the photos without a problem but it doesn't seem to import the videos.

1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

Why can't i receive photo texts from other IPHONE users

Why can't I receive photo texts from other iphone users

contact your carrier, your account may be having issues with MMS

I can't recieve calls or texts but i can still make them myself

I recently updated my iphone 4 with the new ios 7, at first it was working okay, until yesterday. I had another update for bug fixes for the ios 7 and updated my phone again and since then i havent been able to recieve calls or text messgaes but i have no problem sending texts myself or making calls myself.
I have pretty much full signal where i am so dont understand whats going on!
Anyone had a problem like this before and think they can help?

I think you have to restore it but choose to restore with iTunes NOT with iCloud or restore as new! You must back up first and synch with iTunes for not loosing any apps,pics,contacts etc!
This will help...

Not sure what's happening with my iphone 4s... From one moment to the next, i cannot recieve calls or text messages! Switching off the phone and switching it back on it solves the problem.

Is it a problem with the carrier? Is it a problem with iphone? Strange if why it works for 2 or 3 days and then kaput! need to swich it off and on to get it to work again
Any ideas?

Can't make calls, send texts, or connect to internet

Hi all,
The topic heading says it all!
Since this lunchtime, I have been unable to make calls, send text messages or access the internet (unless it is on wi-fi).
I have restored the iPhone setting and am unsure what to do next. Any help would be much appreciated!!!
Thanks!

PinkSocks,
When you restored the iPhone, did you set it up as a new phone? If not, prior to trying another restore, you might want to try resetting the network settings.
To reset network settings, navigate to Settings > General > Reset.
Some other good troubleshooting steps to try:
iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/troubleshooting/calls/
On your iPhone, what does your signal strength display? Do you have an "E" icon or "3G" icon at the top? Have you contacted AT&T to see if there are any current outages in your area, or to troubleshoot your wireless account?
Hope this helps,
Raleigh
