My iphone4 keeps dropping calls

Hi my iphone 4 keeps dropping calls mid conversation and i keep breaking up making my phone almost useless at work however my 3gs used to work fine any ideas?? (p.s. any help in laymen terms please) thanks

The causes could be Carrier related... They may be doing work on the Cell Towers...
To see if it is Phone related here's a couple of things to try...
First:  Goto Settings > General > Reset.. Then Reset Network Settings and Click on Reset Network Settings...
Give it a minute or so to Perform the Reset...
If that doesn't help... Try this...
You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the Phone Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the Phone On...
If none of the above resolve your Issue... then take the Phone to your Local Apple Store and get them to have a look... Be sure to make an appointment first...

  • Why does my iphone keep dropping calls

    Why does my iphone4 keep dropping calls??? It has been doing it for over a week. Does anyone have an answer.... AT&T says they are not having any problems and I have done everything but restore my phone.

    Unfortunately, this has plagued the AT&T iPhone since the original model came out. It's most likely a dead zone causing the issue (I have the sameissue from time to time). You can also get a Micro Cell from AT&T, it's basically just an access point that allows you to pick up a cellular signal at home or work (where ever you set it up).
    To eliminate any hardware issues, make sure you're on the latest build of the OS (4.3.3 for the AT&T iPhone 4) - I noticed you're still on 4.3.2. If you don't have a case, I suggest the Apple bumper or any case that covers the metal bezel on your phone, that will help as well.
    Also, you can "reboot" your phone. To do this, hold down the metal sleep button on the upper-right corner of your phone until the "slide to power off" slider is displayed, then power off the phone. Wait a few minutes and turn it back on.
    Hope this helps!

  • My Razr maxx hd keeps dropping calls daily no matter where I am. How can I fix this?

    This phone keeps dropping calls a few minutes in most of the time. I am tempted to tossing this phone out and switching to iPhone but I loved the droids since the beginning. This has been happening for the last year and now I am tired of it. This phone needs help...

    I am sorry to hear about your troubles with service on your phone. We definitely want to make sure that you are always receiving the best service options. What zip in general are you having the most trouble in? How many bars of signal are you typically getting?  Could you try clearing the cache on your device http://vz.to/KRifEf and also try removing/reinserting your 4g sim card. We are here to help, so please keep us updated.

  • Ipod touch Apps keep dropping calls

    My Ipod touch texting/calling apps keep dropping. I have 3 apps (Talkatone, textme and text free) and all 3 of them keep dropping calls even tho It has a excellent connection to the wifi. It just started doing this a few weeks ago
    Any help?

    Does it happen when connected to another network? Since it happens with more than one app that suggests a network problem, likely on your end.

  • HELP!! My iphone 6 keeps dropping calls and I have a verizon extender

    Hi,
    My iPhone 6 my Carrier is Verizon my iPhone 6 has been dropping calls I think it’s only when I’m home and also we have a cellphone booster aka Verizon Extender and it does connect to that also but when someone calls me it connects then drops right away and then I try right away to call them back and then the call goes though. I have tried a hard reset on my iPhone 6 I have tried just by turning on and off the airplane mode and I have tried resetting the network settings which I just did. I thought of maybe doing the part when you take your sim card out and put that back in but I have not done that yet! I don't know what to do if this keeps happing it is really annoying! Can you please help me! Thanks Also I have looked online of how to fix it but have not come up with anything yet

  • Any idea why my iPhone4 keeps dropping its wifi connection?

    I have a new iPhone4 (an upgrade for my iPhone 3GS).  It has been set up for the house's wifi and does connect.  The annoying thing for me is that it seems to keep dropping out of wi fi.  Sometimes it recognizes it within seconds of turning on my phone & other times I need to go into settings,shut off wifi, turn it on again and hope it recongnizes the wifi.  I have no problem with my Apple computer, and no one else in the household has this difficulty, some Apple products, others  not.   I find this frustrating because I never had this problem with my older 3GS phone.  I'm sorry I took the $0.99 upgrade to the iPhone 4.  Should have left well enough alone!!!  Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

    IPad dropping WiFi every few seconds after updating iOs to version 5.x
    I have the same problem with my iPad 2. It was working fine when my iOS was v.4.3.3. After updating the iOs to version 5.0.1, I kept dropping my WiFi & Internet signal. I am using WPA2, and my SSID is OFF (does not broadcast). 
    To solve the problem, I updated iOs to v5.1. Same problem occurred. I tried using the OpenDNS as suggested.. Did not work too. WiFi stays on for 5-10 seconds before saying signal was lost. Tried to log on again - iPad replied that I cannot join the network. Tried soft & hard reset, forgetting network settings, resetting all network Setting, etc - still nothing works.
    Finally, out of frustration, I turned ON my router's SSID (broadcasting openly). Guess what? My iPad WiFi is working perfectly without any dropped connection. 
    Please try this quick solution. It may just fix your problems. I realized that this solution may be effective for some iPad users out there.  But there is a chance it may not work with others (I tried almost all suggestions in other forums - ranging from updating the wireless router firmware, using an OpenDNS, doing a soft & hard reset of the iPad, etc. Still, nothing worked for my iPad - except this simple SSID setting). Hopefully, this additional solution might help someone. Good luck :-)

  • Why do I keep dropping calls

    I have a Iphone 4 why after talking for about five min. I loose my call

    Why do I keep losing service/dropping calls with every outgoing call it's not my location it happens where ever I am. It will not let me call out even to customer service or 611. It also will go straight to voicemail when someone calls me, but low and behold I cant even call my voicemail. This is ridiculous and has been happening for almost 2 weeks. What if I have an emergency and need to call out or someone is trying to reach me, that's the whole point of my cell phone. Please help I'm very unhappy! I have a galaxy note 2Hi , Thank you for your post. We're happy to help. Were there any changes to your device when this started happening? Do you have your device in Airplane Mode? Please check to see if you're running the most current software version through Settings>About device>Software update>Check for updates. Are you hearing a recording when you try to make a call? Check in Settings>Call settings>Additional settings>Call barring>verfiy that All outgoing calls is unchecked. Also, make sure that your SIM card is inserted correctly and not damaged. We have some additional steps to try. First let's try a Soft Reset by removing your battery for 2-3 minutes. This will re-optimize your device. You may also try running your device in Safe Mode for 2-3 hours: http://bit.ly/1vkcs06 . This will only run stock applications to see if any third party apps are causing this. Let us know if you still need assistance! Thanks, Ema with Samsung Support

  • My iphone4 is dropping calls every day.

    Has anyone found a solution to the iphone4 dropping calls??

    I never had dropped calls and as far as I know there is no general issue with dropped calls
    maybe the antenna connection inside your phone is damaged and have a poor connection
    maybe you live in a place where the sensitiveness of the antenna is not good enough to provide stable connection

  • My Droid Bionic keeps dropping calls.  Help anyone?

    My wife and I both have a droid bionic, but starting from today it keeps dropping phone calls.  Sometimes when we try to make a call, it doesn't even connect.  We tried calling landlines, mobile phones, and called each other to see where the problem is from.  Each time the phone call gets dropped.  I powered off, took out sim & SD card, and powered back on but still same problem.  We need help because it has already made a rude impression when the phone suddenly hung up on someone.  I'm guessing this is the verizon system problem since we haven't done anything different to our phone recently.  Or could it be a virus?  Do they make viruses for mobile phones now?  Its so frustrating...we can't hold a 15 sec. conversation without it dropping the call.

    Yes I took out battery, sim card, sd  card, and rebooted but same problem.  Also, I have another droid bionic my wife uses and same problem.  All started happening today.  Also strangely, AT&T is having the same problem on their landlines.  Not sure about ATT wireless however. 
    I am reporting it now.

  • My phone keeps dropping calls what can i do to fix this?

    My phone is dropping calls, and having trouble downloading apps over the 3G.

    The first thing I'd try is resetting the phone. Press and hold both the home and sleep buttons for 10 seconds or so until the Apple logo appears. You won't lose any data. The iPhone 5 also has a sleep button replacement program. If you have one with the bad button that may also be causing the problem.
