How to end a call when not in the phone app?

OS: 10.2.1
I like to multitask when on a call so after taking a call I might be inside another app or in the hub, basically anywhere except the phone app.
My trouble is.. how can I quickly end a call when I'm done?
Swiping up to exit the app I'm in, then pressing the button on the lower left to enter the phone app, then pressing the hang up button sometimes takes up to 5 seconds dependong on the speed of the phone at the time. Those five seconds of silence at the end of a call can be a little awkward.
Any faster way to just hang up a call when NOT in the Phone app?

You should see the phone icon on the bottom left with the call counter on it. Simply touch that to bring the phone app backup quickly and then hang up.

I have read all of the discussions about headset echos, my echos are heard by the caller when i hold the phone by the bottom half. The echo disappears when I change my hold position. Anybody else having this problem? Fix?

Don't hold it like that. You're creating an 'echo chamber' due to the position of your hand/neck/face. It's not a technical issue. I hear this when I talk to my wife and she cradles the phone against her shoulder.

Help me, I can not remember the phone app id.

No one here will know it. Suggest you try really hard to remember it.

Why is the contact search different when accessed from the 'phone' app vs. the 'contact' app?

When I have the phone open and I want to select a new contact to call I have to use the search function, find the contact, find the number i wish to call, call.
before I could just scroll through to find the one i want, select the number and the call would be made. (as you do if you open the contacts app) can I change this back?

Perhaps you have 2 or more contacts with the same phone number? If you do anything that displays the name associated with a phone number will chose at random.

Where do I find my upgrade date and how do I find out when I bought the phone??

I need to know where I can find my upgrade date and is there any way to find out when I started my services with Verizon?someone help plezzzzz! thanx

Log on to your account, and click on the picture of your phone. It will show you when you can upgrade and when your contract ends. You can go back two years (or one year, if you opted for a one year contract) to figure your start date for that contract.
If this was not your first contract, and you've been with Verizon for several years, you may need to call customer service to find out your original start date.

My phone randomly doesn't ring when people call and not sound the text alert. I checked all the settings and them seem to be correct. Sometimes it rings, many times it doesn't. I have missed several calls. Same with texts. Anyone know how to fix this?

Go to Settings > Sounds > Ringtone and select a ringtone. Does the device ring? (YES: Issue resolved) (NO: Go to step 2)
Go to Settings> General> Reset> Erase All Content and Settings. Warning: This will delete all user data on the device. Verify that you have a backup before proceeding. Go to Settings > Sounds > Ringtone and select a ringtone. Does the device ring? (YES: Issue resolved) (NO: Go to step 3)
Restore device using latest version of iTunes. Go to Settings > Sounds > Ringtone and select a ringtone. Does the device ring? (YES: Issue resolved) (NO: Contact Apple for service options)

Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

How can i record call when i use handfree

How can i record call when i use handfree

Define hands-free, are you using a headset/Bluetooth?
To note, Recording is not a natively supported function of the iPhone. There are laws regarding this... and in America, both parties have to be notified/in-knowledge of being recorded.
Where are you from? If outside the USA, Google Voice won't work.
Have you looked into a VoIP provider that supports what you wish to do?

On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail screen" how do I make it call the number instead?

On an iphone 4s, when I tap the phone number in my contacts list instead of calling the number it goes to a "Welcome to mail" screen with icloud, Microsoft exchange, Gmail, Yahoo, Aol & Windows Live Hotmail listed beneath. How do I make it call the number instead?

Never heard of that. I suspect it thinks that's an email address and you're seeing that screen b/c you don't have an email account setup on your iPhone.
Assuming the number is valid, try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto. The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all. How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto. The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all. How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto? Even if there are duplicates, I'd like to make sure I get all the photos from my phone into iphoto. Thanks

To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.

How can I download itunes when I get the following errors ..ituneshelper did not install correctly error 7..I .have installed and uninstalled a dozen times with various fixes...b noir for example and used Revo to clean up.
This has been a problem for 6 weeks now, I retry when I have time and patience and use my other laptop which is also Windows 7 and runs with no problem.
Every attempt fails when all seems fine on the desktop and I try to log on to Itunes I get the errors.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features(Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (If this won't uninstall press on)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

How to create a voice mail password if you did not do it when you bought the phone?

I did not create a password for my voice mail when I bought the phone. How can you do it now since I ignored the prompt when I first tapped voice mail?

YOu will have to contact your cell provider to get the password, voicemail is a carrier feature.

How do I add an offline translation to the Bible app to use it when not connected to a network?

How do I add an offline translation to the Bible app to use it when not connected to a network?

You will need to contact the developer of the app and ask if that is possible. If not, you'll need to look for another app that doesn't require a network connection to function.
