Iphone doesn't ring after 3.0 update...

After downloading and installing OS 3 on my 3G phone, I realized that there is no more a ring tone I tried few different settings turning all the vibrate features off but when I get a call it still doesn't make a sound. Anyone came across that problem? Any ideas how to fix it? I did restart the iphone few times.

I too have the same problem. Sometimes the keyboard sounds, as well as the unlocking and sleep noises disappear. When I make a phone call I do not hear the ringer, the person answering, and they cannot hear me either. Sometimes it works fine, but not consistently. I messed around with the volume and that's when I realized that the phone thinks that my headphones are still attached and when they're not. I've restarted, reseted, and restored my phone and nothing. All of this started happening after I updated to 3.0. I just came back from the apple store, and one of the employees cleaned the headphone jack with pressurized air, but that didn't work either. I made an appointment with the Genius bar, but now I have to wait for two days until I can take it there. This does not bode well for my phone since they too are taking the stance that this is most likely a hardware issue and not a software issue which means only one thing: I'm gonna have to buy a new phone. This started happening from the moment that I slid the "Slide to Unlock" right after the 3.0 os was finished installing. I smell a big fat rat, Apple. Am I being punished for wanting to have the first gen of a product?

    Hello there Tgurnell
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like the ringer is not ringing after the update to iOS 7.  I found an article with some steps to take when you are experiencing issues like this:

    The landscape feature on iphone doesn't work after OS 7 download.  How do i fix it?!

    Swipe up from the bottom.  Control center should cover about 2/3 of the screen.  At the top right of control center is a circle with a lock in it.  If that lock is closed, tap to open it.

    Basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.  Try each of these steps until your problem is solved. If these steps fail to solve your issue, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple (or an authorized service provider in your area) for evaluation.

  • My IPhone 5 is blocked after asking for update IOS 7.0.2 any idea To unblock it please

    My iPhone 5 is blocked after asking for update IOS 7.0.2 it shows on the screen iTunes with an arrow. Any idea To unblock it please?

    I have a similair problem.  My Iphone 5 has been doing a recovery for approximately 6 to 7 hours.  Should I expect it to take this long or should I restart the process?  Itunes does say it is doing a recovery and looks active but I question the length of time that this is taking.
    Thank You in Advance...

  • My iPhone does not ring after 8.2 upgrade and sound gone on iPad

    the sound as gone on my iPad and the iPhone does not ring when i get a call all after the 8.2 upgrade

    Hi pr1uk,
    It appears your devices are experiencing audio issues. The following article provides steps which may help you find a solution:
    If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support
    Follow these steps and test the sound after each one.
    Go to Settings > Sounds and drag the Ringer And Alerts slider to turn the volume up.
    If you can hear sound from the speaker, then the speaker works. Continue with these steps to find the setting or switch that's affecting the sound. If you can't hear sound from the speaker, contact Apple Support.
    Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is set to ring. If you can see orange, it's set to silent.
    Restart your device.
    Open an app that has music or sound effects. Adjust the volume with the volume buttons or the slider in Control Center.
    Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn off Bluetooth.
    If there's still no sound, connect a headset. If you can hear sound through the headset, remove it and clear any dust or debris from the headset jack of your device.
    If the device is in a case, make sure that the case doesn't block the speaker.
    Use a brush to gently clear any debris from the speaker and Lightning connector (or 30-pin dock connector). The brush should be clean and dry and have soft bristles.
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    If you followed these steps and still hear no sound or distorted sound, contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • IPhone 5s continue ringing after answering the voice call

    Hi,
    After I installed the update iOS 8.0.2 my iPhone 5s continues ringing 0.5-1 sec more after I answered the voice call.
    What can I do to fix it? It is pretty uncomfortable, because I use to swipe and answer, but now phone continues ringing in my ear for a some time.
    Thanks in advance!

    This has just started happening to me as well! After two months of relatively non-faulty use, now this affect. Really rattles me, too.
    Yesterday I got a warning triangle out of the blue that said the phone was shutting down due to overheating, but it was stone cold! I reset then and it has not re-appeared. Never saw that with two years of use on my iPhone 3G. Now this affect, they must be related, but does this mean that there is a software issue or a hardware issue?
    I still have proximity sensor issues after the iOS 4.1 upgrade

  • IPhone doesn't ring in car with built-in bluetooth with OS4.

    I have the iPhone 3Gs...updated completely to the latest OS, but when I updated to OS4, the bluetooth in my Nissan Versa no longer rings. The phone doesn't ring with an incoming call, and the car's bluetooth doesn't ring. The only way I know there is an incoming call is if the radio or cd or auxillary (iPod) is playing, the music shuts off and the display says telephone. If there is nothing playing on the speakers, there is no notification of an incoming call.
    I have deleted the phone from the car's program and re-added it, but it doesn't change anything. Is there anyone else with this same problem?
    It's very frustrating and I'm waiting for a fix.

    ohh boy! i hope i wont have this problem when i get my iphone 4 next week but when i purchased the ipod touch i couldnt even synch it with my friends similar ipod (when we both had bluetooth on).
    i went to a apple store and the genius guy told me the bluetooth only synch with apple stuff - well that was incorrect because i still cant synch with my friend´s ipod nor my home mac mini pc!
    that is why i always had nokia phones so far, because i rely a lot on bluetooth (photo and music transfer) but lately i found a nice ebay deal for an ipad and an iphone 4 ...so i took the chance on getting them but i find now that they dont synch!!!
    i hope the latest upgrade OS4 will solve all this (maybe i wont even upgrade and try it first with old OS from factory) because i need to listen to my ipod itunes and make/receive calls handsfree from my sony xplod bluetooth car radio.
    no matter how old is my poor 2001 renault clio 1.2 this is not a reason for apple not to dwell on this worldwide problem - the only option left is to plug a 3.5 male/male cable from headphones to aux!

  • HELP! iPhone 4 is BLANK after trying to update to iOS 6, error message during restore...

    I tried to submit question to Apple Support, but I have to enter my phone's serial number and it doesn't work! From what I can gather, it wasn't restored, so I can't get the serial #!!!
    When I connected to iTunes earlier this evening, a window popped up about updating iOS.  (I had to update thru iTunes b/c I've never updated iOS!) 
    I chose "download & update".  After ~2 hours of downloading software, it began doing some different things, soon after it started the restore process, an error message popped up.  The first suggestion was to download the newest version of iTunes, which I did, next-restart laptop, opened iTunes, and iPhone doesn't show as a device, and choices like "sync" are gray (can't choose them).
    By looking through and reading other questions and answers in the community, I think I've found the backups stored on my computer. 
    I just can't get anything to work.  proc
    I love my phone, please, please help! 
    In pretty easy to understand terms.  (please no talk of clouds, etc. )
    I didn't do any backups myself prior to starting b/c it clearly said all of those things would be backed up and restored during the process. 
    thank you!

    when I started the update I was at the end of the preparing to download phase and now my screen is just flashing on and off with apple logo

  • IPhone doesn't rings in sleep mode, it shows missed calls everytime

    my iPhone only rings while using it or it's not in sleep mode. whenever i put it to sleep mode it doesn't ring. i've checked the silent switch. i've tried resetting network settings. ipod is still playing
    Please Help!
        Thank You!

    Hi guidingbyte,
    Who is your cellular service provider? Have you contacted them to verify the account and SIM are setup correctly?
    Try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple logo as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743
    If the issue persists after resetting, try restoring the iPhone. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 will walk you through restoring the iPhone.

  • IPhone 3G freezing up after 3.1 update

    I have three iPhones in my house hold. I update all of them 3.1 at the same time. Tow of them are 8 gig 3g models and the third one is a 16 gig 3GS. Since the update to 3.1 there are times the phone freezes up at random. It will not respond at all. Just a black screen. You can not power it down to do a reset. I will just have to let it sit. Sometimes 10 minutes up till 2 hours before it will come back to life. At times it will not make or receive phone calls or text messages or it freezes up on an app and you cant do anything with it other than leave it alone. Battey life since the update on both 3G models is half of what it was prior to 3.1. Not sure what causing this issue. Does not seem to affect the 3GS as much. More prone to the 3G than 3GS. I have tried a rest, restore and even erased phones like they were new and downloaded every app and song like it was the first time. No help. My daughter had a flat last tuesday night and her phone would not function at all. This bug needs to be corrected ASAP. I can not rely on a phone that is not going to function at random or in an emergency situation. My daughter was frantic and could not get in touch with anyone to let us know she needed help. Phone was a paper weight at that time. She had to walk to a store and call me from a land line. Apple- Fix the problem. My daughters life could be a stake and were relying on a cell phone to stay in contact when shes not a home. Is'nt that what we have cell phones for? To be able to place a call anytime needed? Can someone tell me if Apple is taking this issue serious? This is crazy. Phones freeze up at random 3-5 times a day since update to 3.1.

    I have kind of the same problems here... after the 3.1 update my iphone started to fail in several aspects... the displays freezes up, does not respond at all. I cant turn it off or on, it wont respond even after trying to reset. Sometimes I have to wait up to 1 hour for it to come back. At times it wont receive calls, drop calls, wont get txt messages. I went to Claro (carrier en GT) and they couldnt provide me with a solution, however offered me a new iphone 3GS... yeah right, some solution.
    This problem WAS NOT caused by me, I have not jailbreak my iphone and I have used itunes to perfom updates all the time... APPLE need to solve this problems ASAP with a new update version or a patch, something...
    Does anybody managed to fix this kind of problems? what should I do?
    HELP !!!
