Lumia 820- receiving/sending calls and texts is te...

Hiya,
I first realised this last night when I couldn't send or receive calls, despite having full signal and the capability to access data via 3g. After waiting for my phone to dial out for about 2 minutes, it finally managed to connect a call, after many dropped calls.
This morning has been the same, and I have not been able to send and receive text messages also. Unusualy, a couple of times after I have turned my phone on and off again I have been able to make a single outgoing call or send a text, but soon after it stops working again.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Emily

Hi Emily
Which network SIM card are you using? Is this issue visible wen using the same operator SIM card in another device in the same place?
One suggestion from my side is to check for a firmware updates for your device. For that please connect the device with available Wi-Fi networks in your area and update the device firmware over the air (Settings>Phone update>Check for updates>). Please make sure to have the battery having enough charge before start updating the device.
Br,

  • My iphone will not receive/send calls or texts when my computer is on? Help?

    Recently I've noticed my iphone is having reception problems while I'm in my apartment. I've noticed that when my computer is on, my iphone will not receive or send any texts or calls and has problems connecting to the internet. This is a pretty new development, I've had my phone for years with the same computer and no problems before. Any ideas?

    Your computer and iPhone 4 are two seperate elements really using different connections.
    i.e your computer will probably use your router to connect to the internet where as your iphone uses your mobile phone carrier to send and receive texts and calls.
    So its pretty difficult to judge how they can effect each other. You try resetting your router, but ive never heard of anything like this happening before...

  • My phone isn't connecting to 3G and I can't send or receive phone calls or texts.

    So my phone just stopped being able to connect to 3G and stopped being able to send and receive phone calls and texts. It was working fine this morning and it shows that I have multiple bars "dots" but my 3G is reading 1x and says I can't make a connection. What should I do?

    If you have looked where James suggested and you are saying that the phone number does not appear in there at all, you can add the phone number to the iPad but you may need to sign out of Messages on the iPad AND the iPhone.
    Phone number missing on iPad or iPod touch
    If your phone number is not listed on an iPod touch or iPad, follow these steps:
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you are using on your iPhone.
    On your iPad or iPod touch, sign out of your Apple ID in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID with FaceTime and iMessage.
    If your phone number is still not listed, follow these steps:
    Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Receive At and also in Settings > FaceTime.
    Now sign in to your Apple ID on your other iOS devices.

  • Missing Calls and texts, seemingly at random. + Other problems.

    I just found out that my phone is not receiving many calls and texts, I figured it was just a slow couple of days.
    Several different numbers just get VM, some get through but don't ring and I get a beep an hour or so later and notification of a missed call. Some that couldn't get through go straight to VM or 25 seconds and drop or busy signal.
    I haven't received more than 2 text messages in the past two days which is quite out of the ordinary as that is how my friends and I communicate throughout the day.
    Just got off the phone with tech support and did all their stuff. At first I couldn't connect to their test line and the support couldn't call me, then a full reset and he could call me and I could connect so we figured it was solved.  Had one known problem number call again with the same result, so problem is not solved here at all.
    My calendar also wiped the other day without my command to, and then proceeded to sync back to my gmail and wipe that calendar as well. As one might assume this caused me some major problems with my business, work and school schedule.
    Last night I was having issues with sound, either my they couldn't hear me, or I couldn't hear them for about a half hour and a half dozen redials.
    This is already my second droid, I had to go through 3 of my last phone with Verizon and am to the point of just paying the fee to cancel because I have had nothing but trouble with them since the start. If there is not some solid answer to this problem, I guess it is time for me to be done with this company, because it's track record with me is very poor and getting worse as time goes on.

    I recommend doing a PRL Update.  You can do this by dialing *228 send and choosing option 2.

  • IPhone 4 iOS 5.0.1 stops receiving calls and text messages

    Hi all,
    My iPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1) suddenly stopped receiving calls and text messages. However, I'm still able to send them.
    The workaround for fixing this issue is to make an hard reset to the iPhone.
    This only occured with 5.0.1 version. It's very annoying because I'm not able to know if it's working or not (I can only suppose that it's not working when I'm a long period without receiving calls/messages)
    Do you know how to solve this ?
    Thanks in advance!

    First, who really cares what you do?  I certainly don't, and I doubt the vast majority of users on this forum don't either.  Ridiculous statements like that just make you look stupid.
    Second, this is a user to user technical support forum.  I saw a lot of whine here, not a question.  What is your technical support question?

  • I can make calls and send text messages on my new iPhone 5, but incoming calls and texts still go to my old (non-Apple) phone. Is this a problem with the phone set up, or is it a problem with my old carrier or my new carrier?

    I can make calls and send texts on my new iPhone 5,  but all incoming calls and texts are received by my old (non-Apple) phone.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?

    Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?
    During a two weeks process, little by little I notice my phoe doesn't ring when I get a phone call.  So Far I have missed 22 calls that I am aware of.  Moreover, the phone does not alert me when I get a text message.  Sometimes I receive notice the next day that I received a call or a text message. 

    Follow the basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide... reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

    You can call you're carrier and have them unlock it.

  • IPhone fails receiving calls and text messages

    Hi everyone, here is my problem.
    I have an iPhone 4 32GB. It was on iOs 5.1 (always worked perfectly) untill few days ago I have upgraded to iOs 7.1.
    The problem after the upgrade is that phone calls or sms messages fails to be received. Strange thing is I can receive at times calls from cellphones, but I don't receive calls from land line numbers. And text messages arrive all at once after hours.
    I have restored the phone in DFU mode twice, set up as new phone , tried a hard reset, network reset... nothing worked. It still fails to receive phone calls and sms messages.
    Before you ask, the "don't disturb" is disabled.
    I live in Italy and have a contract with TIM, i spoke with their cistomer service and according to them there's nothing more i can do on my end.
    Any idea?
    Thanks

    In preferences turn on iTunes sharing in iTunes preferences and keep iTunes turned on in both accounts. Or better yet put the iTunes library on the main HD rather than in an account and set the location of the library to that location in iTunes preferences.

    My texts have stoipped getting through to one of my contacts. I can phone him and I can receive his calls and messages. I am the only one of his contacts whose  texts are not getting through. We have both restarted our iphones but the problem continues.

    Have you talked to your carrier (or your friend to his)?  Could be an issue at their end.

  • Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name.

    Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name. Hard to know who is calling/texting! A few times I've tapped on the text message icon and I can actually watch as the conversations turn from showing just numbers to the contact names. Same thing when looking at call history and voice mail- sometimes it shows numbers and then I'll go back and the contacts will be back. So frustrating!

    -I have tried using *228 to update.
    You don't dial *228 to update the Preferred Roaming List on 4G phones; I"m surprised the call went through.  The PRL updates are handled by the SIM card. 
    Try this and see if it helps:  turn off the phone, remove the SIM card, and wait a few minutes.  Then re-insert the SIM card, turn the phone back on, and give the phone a few minutes to re-establish a network connection.
