IPhone 4 does not ring for incoming calls

I got the iPhone 4 two days ago, and I noticed that when someone calls me, the phone will vibrate, but it will not ring. The volume on the ringer is set to the highest level. I downloaded an update for the phone 2 days ago. What can I do to get my phone to ring? Do you think the update had anything to do with the problem?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello Dracheskind,
Have you corrected the issue with the ringtone volume? If not, make sure the Ring/Silent button above the volume keys is turned on (if off, orange sticker will appear). Then go to settings > sounds > Ringer and Alerts > change the volume to loud. The vibrate options can stay on. If all of these settings are enabled, try changing the ringtone.

Thank you,

TS2634 My iPhone 4s does not ring for incoming calls. Ring tone is set/settings/sound. It used to ring. I think it has to do with updating to IOS 7.0.4? After updating IOS 7.0.3 my microphone stopped working. Had to clear/reload.

My iPhone 4s does not ring for incoming calls. Ring tone set and used to ring. I think it has something to do with updating the IOS 7.0.4. When I updated to 7.0.3 the microphone stopped working. Had to call Apple Support and cleared phone and reloaded. ($57 charge). Any suggestions?

Start with your finger at the bottom of the screen (about even with the home button) and swipe in an upward motion. There should be a row of icons at the top of a grey field. if the quarter-moon icon is bright white, tap it. If it was (and still is) dark, take the iPhone in to be evaluated by a qualified technician.

My i4s phone does not ring on incoming calls. The settings appear to be correct

My i4s phone does not ring on incoming calls. The settings appear to be correct for the phone to ring.
Also, during a call, when I hit the speaker buttom, I can neither hear nor be heard by the other party
Any suggestions?

Try a factory restore, this might be a software problem so just plug into itunes and go and click the restore button. If this doesnt fix it then its a hardware problem meaning you need to head to an apple store for a replacement.

I have installed a ringtone but phone does not ring on incoming calls

I Have an Iphone 4S, it came with vibration set as default ringtone, I changed the ringtone but the phone does not ring on incoming calls, What is wrong?

Also, you may want to do a reboot, hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appers, so that everything is reset.

HT201401 My iphone would not ring with incoming calls, despite ring tone was set up?

My iphone would not ring with incoming call despite ring tone was set up using sound setting. In the beginning, it did ring. After a while it stops working. Any idea to make it work again?

Is the silent switch on the side of the iphone on?

HT4515 phone does not ring during incomming call

phone does not ring during incomming call

Is the phone silenced? Check the button on the side of the phone above the volume buttons if you see an orange line it is silienced, slide it to the front of the phone and it should correct this. Also ensure the volume is up. If you've checked these and still nothing are you able to call people? do you have service?

My iphone 4s will not ring for incoming calls...I've checked Do not Disturb, changed my ringtone to default and did a soft reset. It will vibrate but not ring. What can I do?

My iphone will not ring when calls come in. I have it set to ring and vibrate. The Do not disturb is turned off and I have reset it but still it will not ring. What can I do?

Check and see that the silent mode switch on the upper left side is toward the front of the iPhone and there is no orange or red showing.

Phone can dial out but does not ring on incoming calls

We have a strange problem with a 7961G phone. It's configured the same as all of our other phones in CMM, but it can dial out but when dialing in the phone does not ring nor does the call appear to be routed to the phone. I called out from the phone to my cell and it displays the correct Caller ID information. Any ideas???

I would check the partition that the DN on the called phone is in and the CSS of the calling phone. These are the two fundamental principles that control when a phone can call another phone.
You might want to change the partition of the called DN to momentarily, to see that the calling phone can call it. All phones can call the partition unless there are explicit blocks put in place.

HT4623 I updated my phone to iOS6 and now it will not ring for incoming calls. It blocks my landline number. I've tried resetting, updating, etc. I've gone to the Verizon store. They were puzzled too. Any ideas of what I should try next?

I accepted the push to update my iphone to iOS6....now it will not ring. It blocks calls from my landline. Help! I've tried resetting, etc.

It has been caused in an OTA glitch. You need to hook it up to your computer, restore and update off of iTunes. Good Luck.

HT4528 My Iphone does not ring and all calls go to voice mail. What to do?

I need help before I have to brave the snow and go to the apple store at Destiny USA

No it does not work either way.
Thanks for taking the time. I will call Verizon

Phone does not ring with incoming call

My iPhone 4 is not ringing -- and it's not set to silent or vibrate. I believe this may be a cell reception problem as sometimes my voicemail isn't available either. I tried turning the **** thing off and restarting it but that didn't help. I am ready to ditch the iPhone, which I love, because of its poor reception capabilities. Any other ideas out there? Help!

That would be fine, razmee, but my carrier AT&T says it is doing the best it can do. I am in a rural area and 1 mi away from 3G service. Sometimes my reception is ok and sometimes not. In the meantime I am trying to find a work-around as I am not sure if 1: the problem is caused by poor service and 2: if it is, are there any solutions.

Phone does not ring on incoming calls

Hi,
I hope someone can help or advise on my issue - see points 3 and 4.
1. Tested with 2 analogue phones - 1 phone definetley known to be working at a separate location - and a mobile phone.
2. All tests conducted twice - at master socket and internal test socket/ ALL other extensions& broadband line connections removed during testing.
3. Incoming calls do not ring on the analogue phones, but calls can be answered if analogue phone is picked up.
4. When hanging up on an incoming call, the analogue phones do not kill the open line. I have to terminate the call on the mobile as well.
5. Outgoing calls can be made and picked up by mobile with no issues.
6. Online BT Line Check reports no faults on the line.
7. Both analogue phones were checked to make sure they are not in silent mode.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks
Ben

I had this problem recently - caused by a fault in the BT line box just outside the house.
3. If you ring your number from a mobile do you hear the phone ringing in the mobile? I my case there was just a short ring heard in the mobile and then silence - picking up analogue phone you could then talk to mobile.
3. This is normal. Reverse cleardown takes some time - I think it is about 10 mins. I often use this feature when I pick up a call on one phone and want to move to another extension. I just replace the first phone, so no phones are connected, then go to the other extension and pick up the call.

Since installing iOS 7 my 4s iPhone does not ring for all callers. I receive some calls ok, others never ring even tho I know someone was tryine to reach me. This is very frustrating!

I discovered this issue when a friend of mine called my home phone to tell me that when he called my cell phone it sent him directly to the messinging service.
It never even rang. It was like the phone was off. And that is NOT the case as my phone is always ON, at all times.
I could call my iPhone with my wife's iPhone, and hers would ring through. I could call my iPhone from my home phone, and it would ring my iPhone
But many other people who have tried to reach me don't have any luck, even when I'm listeneing to hear the ring and pick up. It never rings. Just leaves
a note saying "missed call" and maybe a message, if the caller left one.
Very frustrating for me. I could sure use some assistance!
Thanks,
Ezryder

Thanks for your answer...
My iPhone was connected to a wifi internet when I tried to activate it and when I tried activation by iTunes I was using my laptop with windows 7 which was connected to internet by cable.
I updated my iPhone to IOS 7 when I was in Egypt and I had no problems with updating it and I can't remember if finding my iPhone option was on or off before updating to IOS 7 and as i understood from searching internet that to use iCloud Finder on web from computer to find my iPhone it should be set up already on my iPhone and I didn't set up iCloud on my iPhone before and my Apple ID wasn't verified for iCloud till today, I verfied it by logging in iCloud from a friend iPad.
I was considering already the option that my iPhone has been hacked but if this happened so how I would unlock my iPhone and activate it to back to work? who would help me with that? I'm so tired of being without my phone for almost 4 days and I started to consider not having any Apple product anymore... I think that this way to secure the consumer has a lot of conflicts...
