Making calls while roaming

I have an 820 on o2 UK while in Ireland I tried to call an Irish mobile number by dropping the first 0 and prefixed 00353 but could not get through roaming calls was working as I could receive calls and make calls to the UK. Am I doing something wrong. Can anyone help please Thanks

Roaming has no relevance to making calls, just to having data. It also makes no difference whether you call 003538........, +3538 or 08.......

Making calls while plugged to MacBook Pro or ACD or USB Hub

When I connect iPhone to MacBook Pro to sync and charge, it's not possible to make or receive calls. Even after unplugging, I can't make/receive calls and I have to either turn it off or soft reset. Is this normal?
I have an iPhone 3G dock. I have tried several ways to connect it: direct to MacBook Pro, to Apple Cinema Display-MBP, to Belkin USB Hub-ACD-MBP. I have even tried without the dock. Same problem every time.
Any idea?

My problem is solved. It happens that the dock was placed between the Macbook Pro, Time Capsule and a speaker. After multiple tests, I realized that the iPhone mounted on the dock works perfectly well if dock is placed somewhere else away from these items. Right now, the dock is connected to a powered USB hub, then to Apple Cinema Display and then to MacBook Pro.
By the way, it also works well if the iPhone is connected using the usb cable only, without the dock, even if it's placed between these items. I personally think that Time Capsule causes some kind of interference with the dock.
Hope this helps to someone else.

I am unable to get small contact photos display while receiving or making calls!!

I am unable to make out how to get a small display of the photo on the right hand top corner of the phone while receiving or making calls. I always get a larger display which is covered by the phone options. I have tried every possible option
1. Adding photos in windows contacts and syncing with iphone
2. Adding photos to my contacts from photos taken from iphone
3. Adding photos synced from my PC
None of these options work, can anyone help me to get smaller display of photos while making and receiving calls

Photos added to your contacts on your computer will appear as thumbnails. Those added directly on your phone will appear full size. So, edit the contacts on your phone & delete the photos that were added directly on your phone.

I have an iphone4, while i making call can't here anything to me and receiver

i have an iphone4, while i making call can't here anything to me and receiver. 2 years old phone. some times some noice can here, a bit of talking as well.

Looks like apple is kiding with us. Ive had this problem since Ios 6.1 and now after 3 days I ulgraded to 6.1.2 this ****** issue has returned. Again the other part will listen me if I scream HELLOOo in the first second and then everything works fine or if I wait 1 minute but none can wait that.
Im really angry with this company always they mess up after each update

My iPhone4 struck while making call i cant see any icons??

I had updated my phone to 4.3.5 after that,some times My phone is going un responsive while making calls and taking calls. Please let me know the solution

Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose any data doing a reset.

While making call I am not audible to other end

While making call if I am using loudspeaker mode, I am not audible to other end

Hi Vinzgenius,
From you are describing, it sounds like an issue with the microphone. Take a look at the article below to troubleshoot the issue further. Check to make sure that you do not have any Bluetooth devices connected as well as restarting your iPhone.
If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch

My phone turns off while making calls

my handset turns off while making calls, this happens quite often in a day, i restored the phone to factory setting, still didnt help...

I've got the same issue. Really annoying. I was hoping ios5 was going to fix it, but it didn't .
I would be really interested to hear if someone has found the cause of the problem

Screeching sound while making calls

I just had my iPhone 5 replaced for another issue today. It seems that on my new iPhone 5 I hear a loud sustained beeping or screeching sound that I can hear as well as the other person on the line. Anyone else have this issue?

I started experiencing this same intermittent problem with my 5s. Considered my case (Survivor / Catalyst ) might be at fault but don't think so after researching this issue.
Called Apple Customer Service the Rep confirmed they have been receiving the same complaints from other users. Sound File is the issue.
Was instructed to restore & update with i0s 7.0.3. After doing so made a couple of calls while rep was holding on my landline and of course operated flawlessly. But when I used phone later screeching returned. Plan on going tomorrow to my AT & T store and beg for another phone.
My wife's 5s doesn't have this problem.

Making calls on my iPhone/ LockScreen and Message freezing

Hi, ive had my iphone for about six months now, im still under warranty and ive just recently been having few problems that are quiet annoying. My first problem , while making calls i can barely hear what the person is saying to me and they can barely hear me, i dont know if this is a general problem but its been happening for about 2 weeks now. Second, when in my lockscreen and recieving messages my phone just flashes and goes black i then click the lock button on the top and nothing happens.. again... nothing happens then after i like click the button repetitivly it finally come back but doesnt show i have any messagesm and when i go to my messages it doesnt show what the person sent.
Im still under warranty is there any chance of them giving me a new phone?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved.
If they do not resolve the issue, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

I can't hear anything when making calls no dailing tone or anything but when I try and audioface time it works fine please help

I can't hear anything when making calls no dailing tone or anything but when I try and audioface time it works fine please help

Hi Nfrith1,
Please take a look at the article referenced below, the same as in my original reply. The receiver on the iPhone does not have anything to do with the speakers on the bottom of the phone nor your microphone.
Clear the receiver
The iPhone receiver won't work properly if it's blocked or dirty. Here's where the receiver is:
Follow these steps, testing after each:
Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver, such as a case or film.
If you have a new iPhone, remove the plastic film on the front and back of the device.
Check the receiver opening to see if it's blocked or dirty. If necessary, clean the receiver opening with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
While you're on a call, turn on speakerphone. If you still can't hear, then your network or reception could be the issue. Try calling again later or from a different location.
Restart and update
Restart your iPhone and test again.
If there's still no sound or poor sound quality, update to the latest version of iOS.
Get more help
If you've tried these steps and there's still no sound or poor sound quality from your iPhone, contact Apple Support.
Learn what to do if other people can't hear you on a call.
If you can't hear a person on a call or voicemail or if the sound quality is poor on iPhone
Take care,
Alex H.

Cannot receive Texts while Roaming in Canada

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to be, but I'm having a hard time getting an answer or a solution to this.
I recently got a Samsung Galaxy 5. I spend a good amount of time in Canada and have had no problem sending/receiving texts while roaming there until I got this new phone. When I had my iPhone 4s, everything worked just fine. But upon "upgrading" to this phone, it doesn't allow me to send or receive texts unless I call someone. Is this normal? Is there a way to fix it where I don't have to call?
I set my phone to allow global data roaming, though I do not use it as my phone is always connected to WIFI.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

I have had no problem texting in the US. As I have said before, it is only
while I have been ROAMING IN CANADA. I have tried uninstalling and
reinstalling every 3rd party texting app I have on my phone, and even tried
to use both of the horrendous texting apps that actually came with the
phone. Also like I said before, it simply has a problem RECEIVING text
messages. I can send them just fine. If I do not make a call, I will never
receive texts. I type the entire number when sending a text, this includes
area code because I'm ROAMING and it would FAIL to send to the correct
sender if I was daft enough to not put the area code in front of the
number. I cannot call you for support because that would expend the
remainder of the Canadian minutes I bought specifically for this trip.
What is terribly strange to me, is before, when I was using my iPhone 4S, I
had NO problems sending or receiving texts while roaming, and even received
a message describing both texting and roaming data rates while I stay in
Canada. I did not receive any such message while on this trip with my new
Samsung Galaxy 5. Not that I have been able to receive any sort of text
lately...

Problems with answering and making calls

I have owned a Droid 2 for almost a year now. I love it! But for the last few months I have had a problem with answering and making calls. Sometimes when I answer a phone call it connects like I have answered the call but I can't hear anything and the other person can't hear me. The call says I am connected and I can see the timer going but there is no communication. It does the same thing when I go to make calls sometimes. I can hit send and it connects the call but I can't hear anything. The timer is going and the other person answers but I can't hear anything. The only reason I know they answered is because they then call me back and leave a voicemail, sounding very confused. I have to restart my phone and then the problem is solved. But only for a little bit. I haven't been able to pick out a pattern or anything. It is random and very frustrating. I went into my local Verizon store about the issue and they arranged for me to receive a new, certified pre-owned phone because I pay insurance on my phone. I received the phone the next day and everything went great, for a few days. But this phone is also having the same problem. I am getting very frustrated with this because I need to be able to actually talk to people when they call me. Anyone else having the same problem? I want to go back to the store but I feel like they wouldn't do anything more than they did last time, which didn't solve the problem.

I have this same issue on a bi-daily basis: I can place a call, but then I hear nothing. I can answer a call, but I then hear nothing. The calls connect as the people I am in contact with will tell me they answered my calls and heard me, though I could not hear them - and vice versa. Also, this phone does not like to place a call using the "call" option if dialing from "recent calls". I turn this phone on/ off daily, I've taken the battery out on about 50% of the occassions when this issue has happened. This has been a problem for me for approximately 1yr. My early renew date is just shy of 2 months from now and I cannot wait to get rid of this phone. Aside from having great difficulty making/ receiving calls, the phone is overall slow to respond to basic functions like text messaging or using the camera. Also, most times while taking a picture, the camera will "take a picture" but then there is no image in the file. Highly annoying - the only way to temporarily fix this is to reboot - but like the call issue, the problem recurs. I do have a bunch of apps on installed on the phone, but since I also have an APP killer on the phone, nothing aside from "Weather Bug" app is ever really running in the background that would slow this phone. BUT, right now my main concern is may safety: God forbid I am ever in danger or in an emergency situation, this phone's constant malfunctioning could possibly be the physical harm or death of me. I hope that my family can sue the company that provides the software for this phone, Verizon & Motorola in the event of my untimely death.

Use prepaid while roaming in Mexico?

I am looking for information on if it is possible to use a Verizon Prepaid phone while roaming in Mexico. I am going to be staying in Cancun Mexico and it looks like Verizon does have service there.
Unfortunately, I am not able to find any information on pricing for phone calls from Mexico on a prepaid plan.
Additionally, I came upon this following website which lists a $15 option to add 1000 minutes in Mexico but it looks like it is only for a Share Everything plan. Is something like this available for prepaid?
http://www.verizonwireless.com/wcms/global/plans-and-pricing.html
Thank you for all your help!

Hi there sergey333!
What I wouldn't do to enjoy some warm Cancun weather! I definitely want to ensure you get the information you need for your travels and know the rates if you need to stay connected with your Verizon Prepaid services.
It does seem the availability may be dependent on your prepaid plan. If you visit this link: http://vz.to/10zGE60 and use the drop down to select your plan type, choose "View Plan Details", then "More Information" at the bottom of the description.
Within these details it describes the International Roaming Rate is $0.20 per minute, $0.99 per minute from Mexico, and $0.50 to send a text and $0.05 to receive a text.
To ensure you have all of the information you need for your specific plan and phone I would recommend contacting our 24/7 Prepaid Customer Service at 888-294-6804.
Have safe travels and enjoy your trip!
Thanks!
