Help with issues with cell phone when on Wifi in iOS7

Since I updated to iOS7 on my iPhone 5 (bought in Jan 2013), I'm frequently experiencing dropped calls. I have great wifi signal stregth and this is happening in multiple wifi networks so it's not the network itself. Also, those on the other end complain that my voice breaks up and they can't hear all that I'm saying.
If I switch over to the cellular network, I get much better quality, even if there are few 'bars/dots' of signal strenght in 3G. When I used the same phone on iOS6 on many of the same wifi networks, I didn't encounter these issues.
Has anyone else experienced similar performance issues? Anyone have any suggestions/ideas on how to troubleshoot and/or resolve?
TIA

Thanks. I learned something new. I didn't realize the cell calls weren't able to use Wifi unless through an app (e.g. Skype, etc.). So, I guess what's happening is that if I have Wifi enabled and make a cell call, it (somehow) affects the call quality. I can be in the same position in the house/building and my audio will break up for the folks on the other end of the call. If I turn Wifi off, it improves immediately and the problem goes away.
So maybe there's something up with both of thos things going at the same time. Now that I know, I can likely work around the problem. Thank you for educating me.
Cheers.

How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password?

How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password? When an employee leaves a business and the company has purchased the equipment, the company should have the rights to reissue the equipment and Apple should provide an alternative to unlock the equipment from the employee's personal APPLE account and password so the company (that purchased the equipment) can reissue the line and equipment to another employee.

If you can prove ownership to Apple, they may be able to help you.
The best way of handing things would be strong policies requiring that the equipment be turned in in a usable state. i.e. not activation locked. Failing this, the employee should be charged the cost of the replacement phone. Held from their final paycheck if required.

Is there any way to contact verizon with a detailed cell phone technical support question?

Is there any way to contact Verizon with a detailed cell phone technical support question? I prefer e-mail so as to provide details (like I am trying to provide here). I have tried in-store personnel (no help at all) and the web chat - they just want to see me more data instead of helping me with my basic problem!
I CAN NOT GET ANYONE FROM VERIZON TO GIVE ME ANY HELP NOR CAN I FIND A WAY TO FILE A COMPLAINT. AT THIS POINT I JUST WANT TO DROP MY VERIZON ACCOUNT BUT I'M SURE THAT IT WILL COST ME A SMALL FORTUNE TO GET OUT OF IT.
Here is my issue:
Chat transcript removed as required by the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service
BELOW IS A SCREEN COPY FROM REDDIT ABOUT SOMEONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH A VERIZON CELL PHONE
So last night my RAZR MAXX HD did something totally bewildering by spontaneously downloading 2.6 GB of data over the course of ~ 3 hours. Fortunately I was able to catch this problem before it ended up being really expensive, but I still exceeded my 2 GB data plan by 600MB.
The Culprits:
Reddit News Free: 160 MB foreground / 0.96 GB background
Android OS: 0 MB foreground / 1.18 GB background
Several unnamed applications: ~ 350 MB
Screenshots:
The massive data spike
Android OS data usage
Reddit News Free data usage
Weird unnamed processes
Detailed timeline:
5:12 PM: Incident begins according to VZW data usage website (2.60410 GB used). This is around the last time that I used my phone at the laundromat before getting dinner and watching Game of Thrones.
8:04 PM: 50% of data allowance used (txt msg)
8:31 PM: 75% of data allowance used (txt msg)
8:58 PM: 90% of data allowance used (txt msg)
9:13 PM: 100% of data allowance used (txt msg)
10:05 PM: Got the text messages and immediately put the phone into airplane mode
10:30 PM: Took screenshots
10:45 PM: Enabled wifi, installed Kaspersky premium. Scan returned no threats.
11:00 PM: Left phone in airplane mode, went to sleep.
The questions:
What was the root cause of this issue? Did Reddit News freak out as a result of an esoteric bug or was my phone hacked?
If this was a simple Reddit News bug, then why was the Android OS also trying to use such a massive amount of background data?
What the hell are these unnamed numeric applications? I've inspected my process history and this is the first time they have ever attempted to use data.
I'm pretty sure that I can explain this situation to Verizon and get out of having to pay additional data usage fees, but I would like to know more about the problem before I get in touch with them.

All I can think is your phone may have background downloaded an OTA update, and you'd then be prompted with something like, "As update to your Android system has been downloaded, would you like to install it now?"
I do find it very odd that the update would be 2.6GB. As a rough base, the CyanogenMod 10.1 firmware for your device is well under 200MB, so unless Verizon has a ****-ton of bloatware in the update, or it had to attempt to download multiple times for some reason, it may be a stretch.
But doing a little homework, it looks like the Verizon Razr Maxx was updated to 4.1 in late March. Maybe they're still rolling it out in waves? Have you gotten the update yet?
Edit: Aaaand I just noticed you appear to be running an AOSP-based ROM, which totally rules out a carrier update being sent out.
Edit2: If you want to live dangerously, you could try running:
#kill -9 12289
That 12289 is the PID listed in your screenshot. But don't run that without fulling understanding the kill command.
The ps command could also be of use, but probably not.

I can confirm that the phone is currently at 4.1.2 and that I wasn't prompted for an OTA update.The fact that both the Android OS and Reddit News processes were simultaneously using an extremely large amount of data is unlikely to be a coincidence...

That is very curious that the spikes happened at the same time.I'm curious. It may have put at least some of that 2.6GB somewhere. You could use a data visualizer tool to see if you can find it, which may lead to more clues.

The largest directories are:
DCIM: Normal looking photos (90,825 KB)
Android: Primarily map cache data (64,846 KB)
If it was downloading content then it did not significantly save content to storage. It's not like I have anything particularly sensitive on the phone, but the idea that it was uploading a snapshot of my data definitely makes me uncomfortable.

Yup, Digital Camera IMages and videos.Somewhere in /sdcard/Android would be my guess as to where a mysterious file would be downloaded, but if it's only 64MB, and mostly map data, I'd safely rule it out.I'm sorry, but I'm stumped here.Edit: I should mention I don't think this is malware, because unless a malicious app gained superuser access, any data it used would show under it's own apk in the data usage list, not Android OS.

Although I'm not really up to speed with the Android platform, I come from a UNIX background so I feel comfortable running commands. How do I pull up a bash terminal? Do I need to root the phone first?

[–]omgmrjmako/PA, deb/Carbon 2 points 1 year ago
There's a number of terminal emulators in the Play Store that work well. You don't need a rooted phone to get to the shell as your user, but any privileged command won't execute unless you can grant it permission from the Superuser app that is installed when you root the device. So you could probably do a ps -e, but not a kill -9.

Got it. I downloaded a terminal emulator but unfortunately those processes no longer exist.Does Android keep a generic log of system level events like /var/log/syslog?

[–]omgmrjmako/PA, deb/Carbon 2 points 1 year ago
I don't think so, and I know you'd need superuser permission to read most of the files in /var/log anyway. I'm not super familiar with how Android does its logging, but I do know that the two files of interest are the logcat and dmesg.

Want to mention here that using your settings to set your data cap (set it on your billing day), then you won't go over again.Those text messages are really unhelpful, as they send out well after the data has been used. Chances are good you hit close to the 2GB mark before you received the bulk of the messages.

Quit installing pirated apps.

[–]lechnito[S] 1 point 1 year ago
That's definitely not the case here; both my PC and and Android phone are free from pirated apps.

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

I have read some of the other post which don't give a straight forward answer on how to accomplish this task. Also the newest post on this topic is from 2005. I'm sure things have changed since then.
Please help me with a step by step solution.
Thanks for your help!

You may use U.C.ME-OPC to send text messages to any cell phone. You may use a cellular modem that is connects to a serial COM port. In addition you may send an email that will be received as an SMS or eamil. If you use a cellular modem you may also send commands (for example: change or query values) from your cell phone to Lookout through U.C.ME-OPC.
U.C.ME-OPC connects to Lookout using OPC or DDE.

For those with Issues with the Recent GB update... what you can do to help fix this...

I had my phone replaced by Verizon because the volume was ringing too low with disregard to the level it was set on... this happened immediately after the update and continued even with factory reset. Verizon sent me another one which is doing the same thing but with more issues which include the picture sending and now my mute button is missing when I receive calls. I am a business and cannot afford to miss a single call... especially as this is our slow time of year. To do your part to help push Samsung to send out a corrective update you need to contact them... I did this and a verizon rep told me to encourage this on these forums... here is the link http://www.samsung.com/us/support/contact# it will get you to their contact page and from there you select email under product support. The more of you that do this, the more they will realize there are several... some serious... issues with this update. Thank you and good luck... to all of us!!

I noticed with my Charge phone that when I get a call the FIRST ring is highly muted (quite soft) and then all rings after that are full volume.
I wish that even the first ring was load (full volume) but I accept the fact that that is how GB 2.3.6 works. Anyone know how to change this?
Ya can't win 'em all.

HELP: SERIOUS ISSUES WITH BILLING

I have had serious issues with BT since joining their service. Without getting into the issues we had with the BT homehub and other things at the start of the contract with them here is what's been happening.
When we joined BT we explained that we wanted a monthly direct debit. Sounds simple enough but apparently not.
I have phoned over 6 times in the last year to change this. It has still not happened. Several times we were told that on the system it said monthly for it to be then taken out quarterly. In July while we were away this happened again. Only as we assumed that as they had informed us it would definitely be on monthly direct debit that it was the money for the whole of the quarter was not there. So when they took the money for a quarterly bill again. We were charged. It has set back other bills as the money had been eaten up by charges for this. As you can imagine we were quite annoyed. This was not our fault and we felt that BT were not capable of holding our account details without taking money they we repeatedly requested not to. I admit we should have kept a closer eye on our bills account but you don't think that a company will repeatedly do this to you.
After phone calls it emerged that they would not say more than a 'sorry' about this.
The saga then continued. I cancelled the quarterly direct debit at the back and have asked BT to send me monthly paper bills. Then last month our phone and internet was cut off.
We rang up and suggested that due to the mix up could they add the money we owed to our monthly bills and we'd pay this off on top of the monthly bill. Despite that the reason we owe this at all is not through any fault of our own but through theirs. The money would have been available had they taken it as repeatedly requested.
We were on the phone for 1hr and 10 mins ( 21st September) to three different people. No, they said must be paid in 10 day. My partner only managed to get money off this in about an hour - the point being we were happy to pay the whole amount over a year and were not allowed. We asked to speak to a manager after 1hr and 10 and were put back to the start of the queue. 16 minutes later the man we spoke to said a manager named Samantha would call us back. No-one did.
On the 22nd of september a rather annoyed me called back and repeatedly requested a manager - sadi would be put though. After 17 minutes the phone went dead.
Called later on same thing phone went dead after requesting a manager at 10 minutes.
Later on called for 28 minutes and told the call centre the issue £20 deducted from amount but said it had to be paid in ten days and a bill would be sent. Was told that the internet would be reconnected that day.
23rd September was hung up on after thre minutes on requesting why the internet had not been connected.
Phoned later. The man that I spoke to said that no action had been put through to reconnect the internet. He would do it and it would be through by 5pm.
My partner phoned at 8pm when the internet still had not been reconnected. It was done the next day.
Today BT phoned to ask if I had the bill ( Not sent) and tell me that the line will be disconnected by the end of the day. i explained that we were in the middle of complaints procedures with them. She looked on the system and said that there were no notes on the account. I asked for a manager and then asked for this managers superior. She put me through to someone that when questioned was not her superior and half way through my explanation of this....you guessed it..... the line went dead.
I am so annoyed that we've been fine with bill paying and as of their mistake we're now in debt to them and feel like we can't sort it out as there is not anyone who will listen or help. Has anyone had similar probelms or does anyone have a number for their English call centre?
Jess

hi Jess,
I am really sorry that you have had so much trouble trying to get this sorted out. I'll get this straightened out.
Could you drop me in an email please to the address in my profile with your BT account and telephone number along with a link back to this thread.

Minor prob - with Java on Cell phone

I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong area, please let me know. I purchased an LG8100 phone, and a SanDisk 1 gb memory card. I then downloaded songs to the memory card. On my phone, I selected the option of scanning the headset for any new songs, and usually the new songs will be picked up. However, last night when I added more songs, I got this message after the scan: java.lang.NullPointerException Code 932-B. I don't suppose someone could help me understand this? Please.

i took it back to telus and they said it's my card but then why did it work in my old phone and why will it work for pix?
can anyone help me? it's great having an mp3 phone that won't play....i miss my music at the gym
Posted by: harmony1019
okay so i finally decided to sit down with my phone and figure out what was going on with it and i'm sorta glad to say that after taking all 150 songs off my SDcard then putting them back on 4 at a time....i dunno where i get my patience from.....i found out that it had "issues" with 2 songs grrrr! but ya it still does the restarting thing....i guess it's a quirk that has to be lived with.
Good luck!

URGENT HELP PLS : Issue with Multi Level Master Detail block

This is an issue someone else had posted in this forum few years back but there was no solution mentioned, I have run into this same issue , The problem is as explained below.
Any help on this is appreciated.
Scenario:
There are 3 Blocks in the form : A (Master Block)
: B (Detail of A )
: C (Detail of B )
There is master detail relation created between A and B and B and C. So initially when we query for a record in Master A, it shows all records properly in B and C.
Now if i navigate to the first record of B , and then second record of B , records corresponding to that record shows up properly in C block.
Till now everything works fine.
Issue 1:
But in case after querying initially on Master Block A,If I go directly to the second record of B block, it clears the whole B block and C block.
Issue 2:
Same thing happens if I am on C block ( corresponding to second record of B block) and then navigate to first record in B block , it again clears the whole B block and C block.
Please Help !!
Thanks !

Thanks Xem for Your reply , I tried those settings but it did not help..here is the original link that to the thread that talks about the same problem ,

Need help troubleshooting issues with Adobe Reader X

Hello,
Recently our company upgraded multilpe computers to Reader X. Initially we installed version 10.1.0. Ever since our users on X have been experiencing problems. We are seeing three different issues.
1) A user will fill out the PDF and click print. At that point a popup appears with the message "Adobe Reader has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." The user has the choice to click on Debug or Close. Clicking Debug doesn't appear to do anything.
2) Clicking on a PDF in internet explorer will launch Adobe Reader and a progress bar shows on the screen indicating that the PDF is loading. The progress bar goes away and the user is left looking at a grey screen.
3) When attempting to open a PDF the user recieves this message "The instruction at "0x00720065" referenced memory at "0x00720065" . The memory could not be "written."
In every situation the only way to get past the problems is a restart of the PC.
As an attempt to resolve the issue we tried upgrading several users to Reader version 10.1.3. This was done by completely uninstalling version 10.1.0 and then installing 10.1.3. This did not have any effect on the problems.
Can anyone here offer and suggestions?
Thank you

Hello,
1. The OS on which you are seeing these issues.
Windows XP SP3
2. The method of deployment of the 10.1.3 update. Was it done via SMS/GPO/SCUP?
Originally 10.1.0 was installed remotely using a program PSEXEC. Once the errors began occurring 10.1.0 was uninstalled manually and 10.1.3 was installed using a copy from your ftp site.
3. Can you try and update any one of your systems to the latest version of Reader i.e. Reader 10.1.4 and see if it solves the problem.
We have upgraded one machine to 10.1.4 using the Check for Updates function within Reader 10.1.3 and are looking for any ongoing issues.
4. Which browser are you using to render the PDFs. Is the issue seen with internal links alone or with all links. Can you try and see if the following opens on one of the faulty machine: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_Re leaseNote_10.1.3.pdf<http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_10.1.3.pdf>
We are using IE 8. The issues are seen with both internal and external links as well as stand alone PDFs. No one could open the link you sent but we could open: http://helpx.adobe.com/content/dam/kb/en/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_Releas eNote_10.1.3.pdf on a faulty machine.
5. If suggestion# 3 doesn't work, can you also try and uninstall the installation on any one of the machines manually (i.e. via Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs or Programs and Features depending upon your OS) and install a fresh copy of Reader 10.1.3 (from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.3/en_US/AdbeRdr1013 enUS.exe<ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.3/en_US/AdbeRdr1013_en_US.exe>) and see if it solves the problem. If it does, then it may be an issue with the Deployment methodology followed.
Already tried this. See answer to suggestion #2

I am incredibly angry right now with the fact that it has taken me 6 hours to try to fix a plug-in problem that Adobe will not discuss with me over the phone when I have photos that must be done TODAY with $4000 on the line to have the job done today.

I have never been so frustrated with a company and their inability to support me as a customer.
Even when I try to ask a question in the forums, it logs me out without ever posting my question- every time.
My PS5 will not allow me to run updates or manually install plug-ins to open CR2 files from a T3i.

SSprengel,
Your post appears as a reply to mine, but none of what you write applies to me.
You are way off base and I resent it. Please forgive the inevitable tone of what follows. No offense meant, I'm just pi$$ed off, that's all.
Let's see:
ssprengel wrote:
CS6 is still sold and supported by Adobe, right? They have released ACR 8.4 for both PS-CC and PS-CS6…
That's plain bull, and it has nothing to do with the OP's predicament. No need for me to go into the limited value of ACR 8.x and higher for CS6 users. Incidentally, the miserly pay received by those poor souls in Pune, Mumbai, or wherever they are in India should allow Adobe to extend their limited, pathetic support by substantially more than a few years
I have been told in no uncertain terms by Adobe and those close to Adobe, that I'm an Adobe former client.
That is patently offensive by the standards of any prudent person. My paid purchase of Photoshop CS6, is not that old. I had been an Adobe customer for very close to 30 years.
ssprengel wrote:
……From Adobe's perspective your $4000 job should allow you to buy new software and a new computer to run it on if your older computer isn't compatible with their new software…
That is unnecessarily condescending, offensive and wrong. $4,000 a month is substantially below half of what I was making before I became permanently disabled in 2005 and had to retire. If $4,000/month is all you're making, I'm sorry for you. That doesn't remotely allow you to project that onto me in a puerile and futile attempt to define me.
However, since 2005 I have not drawn a salary of any kind. Further details are none of your business.
The fact that there are people well off to be ripped off does not justify Adobe's predatory practices in any event.
For your information, Microsoft has been very supportive of my situation regarding my older Macs and has even provided replacement floppy drives for Mac MS Word 5.a (decades old) in the last 12 months and even provided workarounds for a six-year-old Entourage 2008 this current year. I run a number of Macs, including two Mac Pros and two Mac OS 9.2 machines.
ssprengel wrote:
…We pay quite a few thousands of dollars a year to use this software …, and we pay several thousand dollars a year extra because we are not using the current version. We…are willing to pay extra to keep the old version. We rarely call them for any help but that is their policy when their customers don't keep current with things.
MY point exactly.
I'm not in any sort of "problem" myself. I'm in the process of quickly learning and enormously enjoying my Photoshop substitute, the excellent 59€ PhotoLine. I was only expressing solidarity with the OP.

Please help! Issues with file permissions on the 'Edit' file created by LR for editing in Photoshop?

I am running a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion. I use a Netgear ReadyNas as my storage device. I can Save, Re Save, Delete and add files without any concern on the ReadyNas from within PS or LR. However when I use the 'Edit in Photoshop" command on LR. I chose the 'Edit a copy with edits', LR creates the new duplicate 'edit' file in the same directory as the original. It opens in PS, I edit as required, however when I save the file to return to LR, I am informed that the file is locked and that I need to edit settings on file or folder, even though the settings are working for all other edits etc. I have had Netgear on this for 3 hours this evening and they cannot see any issues with the setting on the ReadyNas. Does anyone know what permissions are changed or why they are changing when the file is being created by LR?
Sorry bit of a long winded one - but I hope that all makes sense?

h264 is highly compressed and might be the reason your skimming isn't smooth, it may also take a bit more time to convert. I don't have to worry all that much about space so I haven't particularly tried it and can't say whether there are any drawbacks of doing so.
If you google 'mpegstreamclip tutorials', you will see quite a few tutorials you can look at, they do tend to be specific to one task which may not exactly fit in with what you are trying to do, but looking at a few might give you a better understanding of what some options do and when to use them if at all.

HELP: Mail issues with Leopard

I have been having an issue with Mail since I upgraded to Leopard. I am getting the following message when I wake my Mac from sleep:
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “[email protected]” or try again. The server error encountered was: The server “mail.mac.com” cannot be contacted on port 143.
Does anyone know why this might be happening? Mail seems to work fine otherwise...

I had update problems with my PowerBook G4 as well. In my case the update stalled at Writing Package Receipt-it was installing 4 packages so I am not sure which one failed-but about this Mac showed 10.5.2 version-however the receipts were not anywhere -either in Software Updates/Installed Updates or in Library/Receipts/boms or in Console Logs-therefore, I concluded that the Update was only partial. I was unable to update it to completion using the independently downloaded Combo updates. So........., I restarted with the install DVD and did an Archive and Install (it reverted back to 10.5), then ran Software Update. It installed 7 items some of them relating to iTunes, iWork, iLife, QuickTime etc, including the combo 10.5.2 updater. It took an hour or two but everything finally installed. After that I ran Software Update again and it installed the Graphic Update. Now everything is fine except Permissions Verify/Repair takes quite long.

Help wit "syncing?" cell phone

I'm not even sure this is under the right topic:
I have a Motorola Razr V3x and I want to copy music from my Mac to my Razr.
I think I need Mac OS X 10.4 and USB 2.0, but I don't really know.
I had a Moto Razr V3 and I was able to iSync it with my Mac, but I didn't work out how to copy anything else on to it.
Please help me figure this out, I'm not really talented concernig technology.

Ansuz82,
Of course even if the cell phone is one of the ones support by iSync, the carrier may have disabled some of the functionality. Sometimes it is easy to enable again. For example this article for some Palm Treo models:

Then on some Motorola models its not possible to enable syncing with iSync:

Hope this helps,
