Iphone 3gs keeps switching off during phone call showing apple logo
My iphone 3gs keeps switching of during phone calls. The apple logo appears and I have to wait until it switches itself back on, this happens without my help, any ideas please
Try restoring the iPhone. If a normal restore doesn't work, try setting it up as a new device.

Could be faulty battery. Genius at Apple Store can perform battery diagnostic test, which takes less than 5 minutes. Make appointment.

Mike and/or speaker kept switching off during phone calls
I just returned my 4s after less than 24 hours and have gone back to my 3 because teh mike and/or speaker kept switching off during calls using the handset, the apple headset and my blueant bluetooth, they could not replace it today so I returned it and may repurchase at a latter date if this is not at common problem... has anyone else had this problem?
KBurd,
If the proximity sensor is covered by a case, your hand, or by being close to your face, the screen should go dark and unresponsive, but the call should not be disconnected.
Is there anything covering the proximity sensor? It is located between the earpiece and the top edge.
Hope this helps,

My 3 week old iPhone 4S switched off during a call and won't switch back on. Any suggestions??
Sounds like a dead battery. Try plugging it into a charger.

My iPhone 3GS keeps powering off at any point when between 5 and 50% battery remains.
I could be in the middle of texting, receiving a call or using an app when all of a sudden the screen goes black and very faint randomly distributed lines are visible from the top of the screen to the bottom. The display looks a little like a barcode. I am then unable to restart the phone without plugging it into a power supply. I've looked on the Internet and cannot find a similair case.
It is so frustrating and I am continually thinking it will crash at any point.
Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
ThanksWhen the "white symbol" is the white Apple logo, it is starting up....
Can take some time. -
iPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down. After numerous attempts I've managed to get it on again. Any ideas - could it be battery? Suggestions welcome.
Try forcing the phone into recovery mode and restore as a new device.
Follow these steps:
iOS: How to back up your device and setup as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
Doing this will help eliminate any possible software issue that could be causing this. Setting up a new device will bypass a backup with possible data corruption.
If the issue continues after this, you should contact Apple for service for the phone as it will very likely be a hardware issue. -
My new 32gb iPhone 5 gets too hot during phone calls. Is this normal?
My new 32gb iPhone 5 gets too hot during phone calls. Is this normal?
Mine will get hot mostly if I'm in an area with poor reception. The phone will juice up the power output to lock onto a signal and will cause it to get hot and battery will drain much faster.

Having the same problem but unfortunately not covered
Noting i have updates to latest os software 4.3.5 in Aug 5th but it happened to me again?
is it battery problem? Shall i send it for service and maintenance??

While talking on my iphone, the phone tries to turn itself off. Not just once, but continuous, and not just dropping the call, but actually tries to turn itself off.
Well, then I'm glad this is most probably not a hardware issue - at least not an exceptional, maybe defect of all? -. This seems to be a good idea, because 2G will nearly everywhere available, so phone calls are not likely to drop at all. I'm just a bit confused, because they promised intelligent switch even during calls. For me that means that if the better, faster connection is available, then it uses that, and if it wouldn't be, then it switches to the slower one.
Anyways, thanks for your reply. I guess it's a "just get used to it" issue.
