My iPhone 4s Touchscreen is sometimes unresponsive to receiving calls
Sometimes when a call comes through my iPhone 4s won't let me answer the call. I can't slide the 'slide to answer' switch. Pressing the home button seems to help after a few presses, but maybe that's a coincidence. Is anyone else having this problem? I had the same problem with my iPhone 3 and so I am worried it may be a software problem.
Unfortunately, there isn't anything you can do, unless you are using the computer you normally sync with. If you are, you should be able to backup without unlocking the phone.

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.

IPhone 4 with Att, 3g, I can receive calls but caller can't hear me. I tried reboot and remove sim card. Help!
Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem. -
Touchscreen sometimes unresponsive while on calls??
Sometimes, when on a call, the touch screen becomes unresponsive. Certain letters don't work, sliding the screen doesnt work. And when the call is over, the problem still exists until I turn it off and then back on. Should I just restore the phone? Would this be a hardware or software issue? Note: touchscreen works just fine the majority of the time.
I have restored the phone, it does work for a while but become unresponsive after using few times. What can I do? My iphone has been unwarranted. It works perfect during the restore and apps download, seems there are no problems for the screen. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Since upgrading to version 4.3.5 FaceTime sometime won't receive calls
Ever since I've upgraded to version 4.3.5 FaceTime sometimes won't receive a call. Sometimes it will, and I can hear ipad2 ring. I can make outgoing calls, and the other person can hear and receive my call. I also had a issue with an alarm clock app (alarm sometimes won't sound off). Everything else works fine. I've tried setting airplane mode to on, and setting FaceTime to off, shutdown to reboot. Then power up, set airplance mode back to off, and FaceTime back on. Was able to hear receiving call. After that couldn't hear the next incoming call. Is this a software issue? How could this be resolved?
I have the same problem on an iPhone 4 with 4.3.5 update.

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!JasminGomez wrote:

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? -
My phone got damp. It wouldn't work for about a week. Now the screen is completely dark, altho I can receive calls. I just can't make a call because I can't see the numbers. Anything I can do about that? Is this a simple repair?
Yup, it sounds like your iPhone needs to be sent in for service.

Iphone has signal but cannot make or receive calls
I have an iphone 4s. I have a good signal and 3G but making and receiving calls is intermitent. I don't realise the phone is not working until I try and make a call and it fails. Or I try calling my own phone and it doesn't work.
What carrier are you on? Are you on prepaid in Europe?
Does the call complete to the carrier's hotline?
Does data work?
Do calls work on a different tower? -

Can you help me get my part of my messages from my iPad to my new Samsung phone?
iMessage on the iPad only sends messages to other Apple iOS devices. You need to send SMS messages to non-Apple devices. See below.

I downloaded the version 6.1.2 on my iphone 4, after that on the phone compairs the voice : "NO SERVICE", i can connect on internet but i cannot call and cannot receive callings.
How can I resolve the problem?This phone was purchased direct from apple, so came unlocked. My sim card is from o2 in the UK and the phone works OK when on the o2 network. But when roaming in Europe as I do every weekday the signal consistently drops out and the phone reports "no signal" when in fact there are usually several networks available. I've done a restore and a total reset and it still doesn't work. Any help greatly appreciated.

Iphone 4 ios4.3 cannot make or receive calls
Just upgraded to ios 4.3 on four iphone 4 and now cannot receive or make any calls.
Been onto Apple who have been very helpful but cannot find what is wrong, they have agreed to supply new phones (what nice people) network is O2To be honest these are the solutions that may or may not work.
First thing I would try is rebooting the phone by holding the sleep/wake button and home button for 15 seconds until you see the white apple logo.
If that doesn't work I would restore from backup. Try restoring as new. If all that doesn't work obviously you said your getting new phones. -
