Iphone 4 the mike does not work when making a call.  it does work with speaker phone and face time

Just activated new Iphone 4 and the mike does not work when making a call.  it does work with speaker phone and face time. Any known fixes?

My wife's iphone 4 also has your same no ring problem as does my iphone 5 just less often.  I called her iphone 4 at home from where I work 20 miles away on my iphone 5.  With her phone in 3G mode ONE call went through and 9 went to voice mail in 10 tries.  This is a 10% sucess rate!!  I also could listen in real time from the wired work phone and the wired home phone.  She turned off 3G mode and it went to "O" mode at  the top left of the screen after the ATT.  In this mode it rang on the first ring tone 5 times out of 5 tries which is 100% of the time.  I have learned that the calling party will hear up to 4 ring tones when placing a call on the ATT network.  If the ring tone changes volume slightly before the 4th ring then and only then will the cell phone start to ring.  If the ring tone does not change after the 4th ring you get voice mail.  If the calling party does not leave a voice message there is never a missed call displayed on the iphone.  If the calling party does leave a voice message a few minutes later the iphone dings for arriving voice mail but still no missed call indication. 
This appears to be related to the time of day and the ATT tower that the receiving caller is using.  Tried other towers and it works in 3G mode 10 times out of 10 tries.  Apple replaced the first iphone 4 with a new phone, no improvement.  ATT replaced the SIM card and no improvement.  ATT so far is clue less.  This has been going on every since we got the new iphones which is 4 months.  The ATT web site also describes this same problem from several years ago.  Has anyone got better information?
Thanks

  • My phone does not ring when receiving a call. It then goes to voicemail and doesn't show a missed call.

    I have an iPhone 4. When someone tries to call me, the phone sometimes(most of the time now) does not ring. It will roll over to voicemail but does not show a missed call. Has anyone had this same thing happen and how did you get it rectified?

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • I have a iPhone 4 that will not stop resetting itself on its own this is my fourth phone and the second to have this problem

    I have a iPhone 4 that will not stop resetting itself on its own this is my fourth phone and the second to have this problem. I have AT&T so I need to post here instead of actually being held to get help on a Sunday night. this is a extremely frustrating situation as I count on this phone for business.

    Are you restoring your phone from a previous back up? If so there could be a problem within the back up. Try restoring your phone as a new device and then manualy reinstall all apps.

  • My screen seems to have frozen and does not respond when I touch. I tried to shut it off and when the red slider comes up, it does not let me slide it off.

    My ipad screen seems to have frozen. I tried to turn it off and the red slider does not respond when I slide it. What can I do?

    Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. If you see the silver apple it's rebooting. Let it do that and see if you're unfrozen.

  • Phone does not ring when I get calls

    My phone does not ring when I receive incoming calls since I upgraded software to IOS 7. 

    I tried that just now and it doesn't seem to have fixed it--but it is not a constant problem--just sometimes!  I received a call from a friend when do not disturb was turned off but  also when it was on!  That was really strange!
    Now I am trying to figure out why my camera flash won't work!!
    Yikes crazy stuff going on with my phone since I updated the software!.

    Hey mzmz1974,
    I understand you are having issues with linking your phone number with iMessage and FaceTime. The following article provides the most relevant information, as we may need to re-activate iMessage/FaceTime:

  • Phone stops working when making/receiving calls. Screen turns off.

    Hi all..
    I just recieved my Pre3 Yesterday and everything seems to be working fine except that when I recieve or make calls, the screen turns itself off and stops responding, although the call continues to be made as normal.
    This means the only way I can hang up, or do anything, is to remove the battery and restart the phone!
    Does anybody have any ideas as to what I may be able to do?
    Im located in the UK by the way.
    Thank-you!

    Hi,
    I had the same problem after my phone went for swim in a pool for a bit.
    I found on the web that I could do 3 things to see if it fixed it or not.
    1. Upgrade the Software Version. Mine is now at v31.002. I did the update using the Nokia Update Application running on my PC.
    Result: Did not fix the problem. Cost: Free
    2. Replace the Battery. I noticed that my battery didn't hold it's change very well even after 24 hours on the charger.
    Result: Did not fix the problem: Cost: $55NZD
    3. Replace the ear piece. Bought a Nokia replace part on ebay UK.
    Result: IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. Cost: $2.99UKD
    It was pretty easy to replace the ear piece, you just need a T4 philips screw driver and something (I used a plastic scraper used for cleaning my oven tray) that will slide in between the slider gap (I saw a quick demo on YouTube) to pop open the front cover when to take the 4 screws out. Just be careful with the plastic piece around the Navi button as it can easily pop-out and tricky to get back into place.
    So I hope this helps you.
    Cheers
    PS. This is actually a friends phone and I was seeing if I could fix it or not. He's now got a iPhone now so it's a spare one. )

  • Contact picture does not appear when receiving incoming call

    I have attached pictures on my iPhone contacts but when i receive an incoming call the picture does not appear. Any ideas how to resolve.

    I am expriencing the same issue with my iPhone 4S, were you able to resolve the problem?

  • Contact info does not display when answering a call

    instead of formatting my phone numbers as (123)456-7849  the iPhone Contacts app insists upon 1234567849
    But when I receive calls, the display shows the caller with the parenthesis.  And apparently that makes it different from the entry in Contacts.
    But even when I save the call into Contacts, the number is reformatted without parenthesis, and there is no way to add parenthesis to the Contact info. 
    So basically I do not have caller-ID with my updated iPhone, it just shows the caller's phone number (with parenthesis, of course)
    Help???  This is annoying.

    Yep, having the same problem.  Kind of infuriating.

    Hi almannai,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that when trying to FaceTime with someone it will act as though it is connecting and then the call will close. There are several steps you can go though as listed in the following article, but typically making sure both devices are completely up to date solves this type of issue.
    iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3367
    Resolution
    If you encounter issues making or receiving FaceTime calls, follow these steps:
    Update both devices (your device and your friend's device) to the latest version of iOS.
    If you started to have issues making or receiving FaceTime calls after April 16, 2014, you or your friend may have an expired device certificate. Updating both devices will resolve this issue.
    I hope this helps,  
    -Joe
