Cant receive or make any calls from iPhone 3.

Why might that be. I have reinstalled the phone several times!

Hey bdc1530,
I would try out the following troubleshooting steps:
Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
Check your phone settings:
Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
Ensure that your software is up to date:
Check for a carrier settings update.
Check for an iOS software update.
Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Try to make or receive calls in another location.
Attempt to isolate to one network band:
If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
Contact the carrier to check the following:
Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
There are no localized service outages.
Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
Restore the phone as new.

    What is the name of the app that I can use to make free calls from iPhone to iPhone ?

    You mean Whatsapp messanger?
    WhatsApp Messenger is a cross-platform mobile messaging app which allows you to exchange messages without having to pay for SMS.
    NO calls.
    FaceTime, Skype and Viber are the most popular. (at least here in Greece)

  • I am not able to make International calls from iPhone 5s

    I got this new iphone 5s as a gift a week days ago, and It was working all great for 2-3 days. But from last 4days i AM not able to make international calls
    Whenever I dial, I can't hear any ring going on and all I can hear is my own voice reverting back to me. Moreoever I am being charged for every call I make. I tried restarting my device, Also by connecting to itunes to find if any Update is needed but it says my iOS7 is recent no updates needed.
    Urgent help needed
    Thanks in advance.

    A call is a call so far as the phone is concerned. Internation or across the street, it doesn't diferentiate between them.
    Contact your carrier.

    Hello and welcome to the Skype Community!
    The reason you can't make calls is because you are calling from the UAE which blocks all outbound VoIP traffic including Skype to protect the state monopoly. Accessing the internet using a VPN to avoid the block may assist.
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
    If my advice helped to fix your issue please mark it as a solution to help others.

  • Why cant I make outgoing calls from iphone 4s 64gb using 5.0.1

    I am an apple iphone user for long since iphone 2g but never had this problem till now. I recently bought an iphone 4d 64gb white and just after a day the 5.0.1 update came out and I installed it. Since then I cannot make out going calls and every morning I am getting a invalid sim display. Switching it off and on fixes that problem and all the other thing like recieving calls are working fine but I'm not sure about this problem. Is it a hardware problem or is still the problem with 5.0.1!!! This new update promised battery life and many other stuff aswell but mine become worse :[ dunno what to do now. I miss you Steve Jobs. Please any comment will be more than appreciated. Thanks....

    Make sure you both have iMessage turned on in Settings -> Messages.  The Receive At setting on your friend's phone will show how you can reach him/her (just as your setting will show how they can reach you).  Hope this helps!

  • HT201269 I can't make any calls from my new phone

    I just got my phone on warranty, and my carrier is not showing on the top right screen. Help me

    I assume you put a SIM card in your replacement phone.  If so, youll need to contact your carrier.

  • Can't make any calls. Can receive calls, sms data etc just fine

    Hi,
    All of a sudden this mid-morning, I wasn't able to make any calls from my iPhone 4S.
    Everything else works fine. was able to make calls earlier in the morning too.
    Have tried:
    - turning it on and off
    - soft reset
    - turning airplane mode on and off
    - checking caller ID
    - resetting network settings
    nothing works.
    Please let me know what else I can try.
    Signal is good, when I receive calls, voice are crystal clear.
    Phone is provided from my company, so no problem with payments i think.
    updated to ios 5.1.1 last week.

    Check to make sure you haven't accidently turned "Airplane Mode" on. If that's not on, try syncing and backing up your phone and doing a complete reset and sync everything back onto your phone. If all else fails, contact your phone company. Good Luck.

    Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if better. If still problem clean charging port again with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

  • TS4449 When i make call from iphone,loudspeaker is being enabled automatically and not able to  hear any sound ..

    When i make call from iphone,loudspeaker is being enabled automatically and not able to  hear any sound ..
    And some time it's worked...

    OMG.....this very tiny hole located next to the headset jack........I suffered for the same issue around 20 days after purchasing my iPhone 4S. Even I visit the apple store too, they suggested to talk with apple online.....just before going to apple, i was reading "iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting" (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802) and at the very first line, i found "Make sure that nothing is blocking the top microphone (located next to the headset jack)." and this located next to the headset jack solved the problem completely for sound in vidio as well as sound with calling speaker phone.....Actually, I purchased a plastic cover (like screen protector type) that blocked this small hole (microphone hole i think) and the problem was because of this...I remember on the first day i talk with speacker phone (nothing on iPhone at that time) and it was working...
    No need to restore or hard reset anything...i was fearing i'll lost everything if I hard reset my iPhone that took 5-10 to build my iPhone as I like apps, music, vidio on it....

  • 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.
