IOS 7 phone no longer rings

Just installed IOS 7 onto my iphone 4s and one small bug:
THE FREAKIN PHONE WON'T RING OR VIBRATE FOR INCOMING CALLS == Guess Apple wants 100% mindshare -- if you're not staring at your phone ALL the time, you're not a TRUE BELIEVER

What if you change the ringtone > restart the phone > check again

Phone no longer rings

Since I've bought my swr30 my phone no longer rings. I've the volume up to high on both devices. Nothing is set to silent. I don't understand what's happening.
Does anyone have an idea on what might be the issue? I've an Xperia z3.
Thanks for your time

HT204019 My phone no longer rings properly the button on the side has not been put on silent. Any ideas

My iPhone no longer rings when someone calls and I have no txt tone either. The button on the side is not on silent

Sounds like it either believes that there are headphones plugged in, or the switch is broken.
Why in the world would you take it to Best Buy for service? Take it to an Apple Store. They can replace it on the spot if it's defective.

Phone doesnt ring when calling skype number.

Yeh just figured it uout a second ago! Sorry for the stupid question!
Cheers

Help please!! Phone no longer rings when someone ...

I just got a skype number a week ago. Everything worked fine for 5 days. Suddenly since yesterday morning, when someone calls me, there is no audible ringtone. If I call them back, after I see the missed call, we can talk normally. Both my speakers and microphone are working fine in every other way (and in all other applications). When I go to Tools -> options, and ask it to play the ringtone, I can hear it fine. It just doesn't actually ring when someone calls.
I looked at "How do I adjust the sound settings on my computer and in Skype for Windows 7?" in FAQ, and everything checked out fine.
Does anyone have a clue how I can fix this? There's not much point my having this skype number if I can only receive missed calls. I very much need to be able to answer the phone.
I did try re-starting my computer. Several times.
Thanks!

Hi, Mikros,

How do I receive calls and instant messages in Skype for iPad?
You only need to be signed in to Skype on your iPad to receive Skype calls and instant messages.
You can have Skype running in the background and receive calls and instant messages, while you have other applications open.
If you don’t hear the Skype call ringtone when your friends are calling or instant messaging you, simply enable the Skype notifications:
In your iPad’s main menu, go to Settings.
Tap Notifications > Skype and set Sounds to ON.
If you’re signed in to Skype on your iPad and on your desktop computer at the same time, both of them will ring when you receive an incoming call.
You can also receive incoming calls to your Skype Number. The Skype Number will allow people to call you on Skype, even if they’re not on Skype themselves. You can set up Skype Number from your Skype account.
My iPad is on OS 7.0.4, and I confirmed the above settings before copying and pasting here. If you are still on an older version of the iPad OS, check your audio settings in the Settings -> General or Sounds tab.
Kind regards,
Elaine

Corded Phones Don't Ring, Cordless Do

Hello,
We have recently realised that our corded phone no longer rings, whilst our cordless phone does. First we checked that the ringer option on the corded phone was switched on, which it was. We then tried unplugging the cordless phone and putting the corded phone in its place, and still no ringing. We tried the cordless in place of the corded and that did ring wherever it was plugged in. We also tried an old cordless phone, and that did ring. Therefore the two phones that require a separate power supply do ring, whilst the old corded phone that simply gets its power from the phone line did not ring, and I suspect this is where the problem lies. We tried some other old corded phones and they did not ring either, so it's not the phone that is faulty.
We have a buzzing noise on the line for which we've had engineers out (which still isn't fixed, although that is supposedly an internal wiring issue - our house is a new build), and I wonder if one of them has inadvertently done something to cause this (as the corded phone did ring a few months ago).
Before I contact BT support, does anyone know what could be causing this? I can cope with a reasonable level of technical jargon so feel free to throw it at me!
Thanks,
Simon

Hi, it is someting you can do your self if you feel confident enough. you may need to get hold of a special wire insertor (IDC tool) like thiswhich is used to connect the wire on the back of the frontplate of your main socket.
Have a look at this picture as it tells you how to disconnect the wire, you just need to do the opposite.
The best way to identify the correct colour to put back is to have a look at the wire on terminal 3 of your extension socket, you need to connect that colour back onto terminal 3 of your front plate.
The wire is laid into the groove of the connector and then "punched down" with the magic tool.
Hope this has helped

HT4976 Since updating my iphone 4S to ios 7.1 my phone will no longer ring and apps do not have sound.

Since updating my iphone 4S to ios 7.1 my phone will no longer ring and apps do not have sound. I have made sure the do not disturb is not turned on and have also gone into Accessibility and made sure sound is not off there. I have done a reboot and also a reset of the settings. When I set my ring tone, the sample tone plays, however, the phone only vibrates when I get a call. The apps also do not have any sound. Everything was working fine until the update.

I am positive the half moon isn't there. That one caught me once before so now I am careful to check.
Thanks for the idea tho!

TS4268 iPhone users can no longer send me text messages now that i've moved to a non-iOS phone. Can iMessage service or Message users be refreshed to see me as a normal text message recipient?

I still have an iPhone, but haven't turned it on for weeks. And there's no SIM in it, so no cell service, just WiFi. When I turn it on after a prolonged period of having it off (weeks), a bunch of messages popup that should have been forwarded to my new phone (same phone number and carrier as when I was an iPhone user) but appear to sit in iMessage queue indefinitely instead.
I'm guessing it has to do with the link that's made when an iPhone first realizes that it's talking to another iPhone and defaults, for all future texts, to iMessage. You know, the green to blue switch. How does that association get undone?
Has anyone else seen this, and if so, is there a fix?

your number can remain on the imessage server for some time

We have a 5s active on our account. After turning on a previously active 4s (it had the same number) The 5s can no longer place call and when you call it from another phone the 4s rings, but will not pick up. Texting over the cell networks works fine.

hens0861,
Hmm, let's ensure this is working as it should be! So what phone should be active on your account? Did you switch the devices online or how to did you activate the 5s? Please share details.

Have you checked your sound prefs after you updated the OS? It's possible they got changed during the update.

I updated the IOS and my phone no longer works, it just displays the Apple logo and eventually dies. Any suggestions?

I updated my IOS and now my phone no longer works. All I get is the Apple logobuntil the battery dies. Any suggestions?

Charge the battery for several hours. Then reset by holding the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
If you then see the USB cable and an iTunes display, follow the direction and plug your iPhone into iTunes.

Depends on how much needs backing up and your wifi speed. 5-30 mins maybe?

Just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds

just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds is there any solution to this problem

If KiltedTim is correct I agree with him. If the phone is not hacked try temporarily disabling your antivirus and firewall that may be blocking access to gs.apple.com. See also this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error3194

How do I quickly turn off the notifications in ios 5 but still allow the phone calls to ring.

I am trying to learn how to set my Iphone 4 with the ios 5 to silent but still allow the phone calls to ring aloud. At night, I do not want to hear emails and text messages come through, but if someone calls I would like my phone to ring and wake me up. Can this be done easily? I do not wish to go into each notification section and turn off and back on. Hopefully their is a quick set point that would allow all notifications to be turned off and still allow the phone itself to ring.

hi mtbomb,
hi Can you while the Power LED is blinking hold the power down don't let it go until the light disappeared.
Technically the Yoga13 should turn off while holding down the power. at least 10 to 15 sec.
I would suggest calling Technical Support if the above steps did not resolve the issue.
It's possible that when you turn on the system, it is not going to sleep but the blinking indicates failure.
Best regards
Solid Cruver
