Making a call - video or phone

I have been unable to make any calls.  My sign in screen freezes when it appears and does not respond. When I log in to my account, it show existing credit but does allow me to make a call.  Is my account inactive?  Can re-activate it? How?

OMG.....this very tiny hole located next to the headset jack........I suffered for the same issue around 20 days after purchasing my iPhone 4S. Even I visit the apple store too, they suggested to talk with apple online.....just before going to apple, i was reading "iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting" (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802) and at the very first line, i found "Make sure that nothing is blocking the top microphone (located next to the headset jack)." and this located next to the headset jack solved the problem completely for sound in vidio as well as sound with calling speaker phone.....Actually, I purchased a plastic cover (like screen protector type) that blocked this small hole (microphone hole i think) and the problem was because of this...I remember on the first day i talk with speacker phone (nothing on iPhone at that time) and it was working...
No need to restore or hard reset anything...i was fearing i'll lost everything if I hard reset my iPhone that took 5-10 to build my iPhone as I like apps, music, vidio on it....

  • Quiet down OSX when receiving/making a call on mobile phone

    Hi everyone,
    I want to write an application in JAVA which will quiet down the system volume when I am either receiving or making a call on my Nokia E66 mobile phone.
    Where can I read up on what I have to do to get my mobile phone to broadcast that information to my Mac?
    Hints and Tips are appreciated,
    DodoFXP

    I've used an application named 'Romeo' that works via Bluetooth to allow the type of interaction you describe.
    No idea how it works under the hood, other than the obvious, but it may help with examples, etc.

    scottxx,
    That was very nice of you to provide your friend with a new phone! I am sorry to say that the device will not be able to activate while in Dubai. For a device to activate it must connect to the VZW network to become active. I apologize for any inconvenience.

  • After making a call I put my phone in my pocket and when I bring it out to make a call the player is on killing battery life. How can I shut the player off or prevent this from happening?

    Try to position your iphone that the screen is facing away from your skin.
    Make sure that the back part of your phone will be the one that will contact your skin inside your pocket
    Thats what i do:)

  • Why is my backlight display lit for only 5 seconds while making a call (Brightside phone)

    When I go to settings, I see that it is set for 2 minutes and indeed it does stay lit for that amount of time if I am not making a call, but as soon as I dial a phone number and especially when I get into an automated menu system where I need to press 1 to get to a different menu and then other numbers to finally get to talk to someone, the display goes black. I have tried swiping the screen which does not help. The only thing that I can do is press the curly arrow that points to the left to have the display light come back on for another 4 seconds, then press the button called keypad and hurry and press a number to continue with the menu system.
    I talked with Verizon and was told can do a complete reset, but I don't want to lose my contacts.  I went to backup assistant online but keep getting the arrows that go around and around forever and won't let me see if they are backed up. I want to view my contacts online and I want to print them. What's wrong with that site?
    I will say this. Do not buy the Brightside phone. It is not a smart phone. It's  a touch phone and when you touch anything, things come on like the camera or makes calls to my favorite contacts. sheesh!  I can't wait until our contract with Verizon is over with.

    I just bought the phone yesterday and have noticed the same issue. The verizon guy i just spoke to said that needed to be fixed, so he transferred me to Samsung tech support. I'm waiting for them to pick up . . .
    Okay, spoke to a very nice person who concluded that this was not an option that could be adjusted.  The light apparently stays on for about 6 secs.
    I was hoping it could be changed, so that's disappointing, but the reason it goes dark makes a lot of sense: it keeps you from hitting buttons accidentally while you're on the phone, so you can hold the phone in your hand, to your ear, etc. without worrying about activating something unintentionally. Also saves battery.
    Hope this was helpful.

  • I phone 3 just shuts down after 3 to 4 mins when making a call large apple logo apears on screen the only way to reboot is to charge charge it although there is enough battery.any answers thanks

    i phone 3 shuts down after 3 to 4 mins when making a call - then large apple sign apeers  phone frozen - only way to unlock is to re charge although there is enough battery - any answers would be welcome.

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup...  Restore as New...
    Restart / Reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Backing up, Updating and Restoring
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    But... This can happen if the phone has been Hacked / Jailbroken / Modified...
    If this is the case... Then... None of the above will necessarily work...
    And...
    The discussion of Jailbroken Devices is against the Terms of Use of this Forum.
    You will need to look elsewhere.

  • When making a call if you touch the phone with your face, you touch the speaker or mute button

    When making a call if you do not roll the screen to home if you have the phone to close to your face it touches the mute or speaker buttons. Is there a setting in the phone that will automatically roll the screen so if you touch with your face it does not happen?

    There is a sensor that disables the screen when you hold the phone to your face. If you didn't remove the plastic film from the front of the phone, or you have a case on the phone, it can block that sensor and you will encounter the symptom you describe. So try removing any case and check for the shipping film (which is hard to see).

  • 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

  • Good day my question is , does anyone of you experiencing when making a call with facetime the phone shuts off and restart

    good day my question is , does anyone of you experiencing when making a call with facetime the phone shuts off and restart

    See this veeeeeeeeeery long thread.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3404857
    It's an issue with hundreds of phones.  Some claim it's software related, some hardware, some say it's a mixture of both.
    Some people have had temporary success with quitting the Phone.app / restoring as a new phone / restoring from an iCloud backup / disabling Siri / toggling speakerphone on & off...
    Unfortunately all of the above only been temporary, with the problem recurring again after a few calls, or a few days etc.
    So far the only solution that seems permanent has been to replace the phone.  But even so, it's the luck of the draw to recieve a functional phone, and not another faulty one.
    I'm completely annoyed as there is no Apple Store near me...... and Apple haven't even acknowledged the issue, despite the above thread being 34 pages long, as of writing.

  • Phone disconnects making facetime calls

    when making facetime calls phone disconnects before call is answered on device being called can accept

    Cellular calling doesn't yet work reliably. Any improvement may only be temporary.
    Make sure you've followed the instructions in this support article. Note that both iCloud and FaceTime on the Mac must be signed in to the same Apple ID; those are two separate steps. Also note that the Mac and the phone must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Ethernet won't work. Trying to pair the phone to the Mac as a Bluetooth device won't work either.
    If cellular calling still doesn't work, sign out of FaceTime and sign back in. You may have to do the same on the phone. The email address that you use as your Apple ID must be able to receive FaceTime calls.

    Hi there
    I upgraded to the latest Skype v7.6.64.105 - ever since my Skype crashes when I make a call  - oddly I get "not responding" but the call continues - I cannot press any Skype buttons during this time - when the call ends - the other person needs to hang up - then my Skype crashes and needs to restart.
    I've uninstalled, restarted, reinstalled.
    Cleared the %appdata% Skype folder - renamed this folder - had Skype recreate this folder.
    I've done a system restore - same issue - then uninstalled/reinstalled.
    Windows was upto date prior to system restore - then performed updates again.
    My video drivers are up to date. Checked dell for updates - updated bios.
    Reading on other boards - people are advised to run DxDiag - which I did and have attached. Skype seems to continue to work as expected when only using 'chat' - not audio.My audio devices drivers are up to date too?

     Skype is crashing on Intel graphics driver. The error message indicates that the issue is with "Switching Graphics" (NVIDIA <-> Intel). There are no driver updates available for Windows 8.1 for your laptop on the Dell site. However, you can try to update the NVIDIA NVS 4200M driver directly from the NVIDIA site. http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/86814/en-us
