i already updated my phone and download he latest version of itunes. The Siri is turned off and the voice control appers alone and start makiing calls itself. please help me!!
It's pretty clear your Home button is becoming easily stuck in the active position, causing Siri to activate and, based on what it hears, make calls.
You need to hand the phone in and get it fixed. Shouldn't cost you too much. Try to find an Apple Authorised Repair Centre in the first instance. Follow this link and choose your country to see if there's one nearby.

i have a iphone 5. the volume button going down only does not work. this is my second phone with the same problem. i have had otterboxes for both phones.
Does not work even with the case off. I formatted and rebooted, reset, called apple and sent the last one back. It was free but this is getting old. I have had all iPhones and this is the only one I have had issues.

My home button does not respond most of the time. Is this a hardware failure?
I've had quite a bit of difficulty with getting my home button to respond. Sometimes, the only way to get back to the home screen is to do a hard reset. I constantly close any open apps, thinking that this might be the problem (memory issue).
Hoping you can help!
Thanks!See:

Hard Reset
Press and hold BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
if no result try to back up and restore via itunes on a computer.
if wont restore try this
recovery mode
open itunes on computer
plug cable into computer not iOS device
turn device off
hold home button and plug cable into IOS device. do not release home button until an itunes graphic appears on IOS device.
look to computer should have message about recovery mode click ok and restore

I have bought a IPhone 4 from Malaysia, my home button is not working. I want to replace the phone under warranty but all service centres mention that its country specific and I need to get it replaced only at malaysia. Can anyone guide me what to do????
The iPhone warranty is not international and as you purchased in
Malaysia the warranty is only valid in Malaysia
You could try taking to an iPhone Authorised service provider
in India but there have been many similar posts to yours
and I am not aware of them assisting with an iPhone from
outside India -

The home button is not working on my iphone 5 - is there a way to troubleshoot that issue?
the home button is not working on my iphone 5, its does click and acts normal but doe not do what it is supposed to do
You have identified the problem. If you have Warranty or AppleCare coverage, make Genius reservation and take or send to Apple for resolution. Troubleshoot. When iPhone 5 is open, the home button contacts are present right there. With volt meter placed on home flex you can see if pressing home button completes the circuit. You can bridge the dock home button contacts and see if it actually causes response in the iPhone. If not dock or its contacts are faulty or logic board is faulty.

My home button is not working sometimes and at the store they dont want to take it for repair because the problem did not show up at that time
When normally powering the phone, there would not be a loading bar, you would just see the Apple logo. You can try a reset of the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.
You can take the phone to Apple, by making an appointment at the Genius Bar to have the hardware checked. Apple handles warranty and post-warranty issues, not Verizon. Have Apple look at the hardware to see if there are any problems. -

Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and do an out of warranty replacement for $149 USD, or use a third party repair site such as http://www.iresq.com, or replace it yourself, http://www.ifixit.com.
