My phone is not ringing for a message and a call

Not able to here a tone for a message and a call. names just appear on the banner even my phone is in handy.

Hello all...
I'm on iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 on Australian Vodafone Pre-paid network.
Have a similar issue where I would call my iPhone from a landline, ring tone suggest that phone is ringing, but the actual iPhone device itself is not ringing.
Thought it was the network, so I got myself a new sim - same problem.
Use other (working in other iPhone) sim on the problem iPhone - same problem.
Tried calling out from the problem iPhone - same problem.
The only fix for me was to reset the iPhone by going to: Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings.
Hope that helps others...
The question is - what was the root cause of the problem? Hmmmm...

TS1630 My phone will not ring for calls or text messages. It also will not play music out loud.

My phone will not ring for messages or texts. It also will not play music outloud. I know it's not the speakers because it does make noise when I type in my password and sometimes when I am in the settings for the ringtone. It will not make the message sounds in settings. With headphones it makes noise. I don't know what to do and I've tried all the settings. Has this happened to anyone else? The silence key on the side is off. I've tried restarting it, but it does not work. Sometimes it will make noise when I am typing, but only a few times. I haven't dropped it and I have an otterbox, so I don't know what would cause it to do this...?

Everyone you are way over thinking this as did i at first. My wife had the same issue. there is i switch right above the volume button as demonstrated on this link. its designed for lets say you into a class or meeting you can switch the phone to silent quck and easy.

YOu'll have to restore, nothing else you can do.
If you have an older backup you can restore to that.

Phone does not ring although settings on and sound works

Phone does not ring when called; however, sound works

Is the silent switch on the side of the iphone on?

I have an IPhone 4s that recently has had an issue receiving calls. I will get a voicemail but the phone did not ring. When i go to call the person it stays on dialing and never connects. I have to do a hard reboot and then I can call them

My phone 4s has recently been acting up. I will receive a voicemail but the phone never rang. When I try to call the person back the phone gets stuck on dialing and then freezes I have plenty of signal bars, when I try to end the call it freezes. I have to do a hard reboot and then the phone works again. It seems like this started after the last update. My network is Verizon. Any suggestions?

Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

I have a 16GB 3GS phone. For the last few days, my phone is constantly giving me message that the accessory attached to my phone is not optimized for this iphone. You may experience noise or poor communication, while there is no acessory attached to it.

I have a 16GB 3GS phone since about20 months now. For the last few days, my phone is constantly giving me message that the accessory attached to my phone is not optimized for this iphone. You may experience noise or poor communication, while there is no acessory attached to it. I always used standard headphones and charging cable. Now when i recall, it started at one of the sync sessions with my itunes. I have turned my phone off and aon again and again but the message keeps coming every one or two minutes.I have also started loosing voicce on different applications like youtube etc. Also the ringer volume up and down key does not show me the small boxes increasing or decreasing on screen. The phone is playing crazy. Can someone help please
Thanks

It helped earlier but it has come back again. I don't know what to do. I tried what you said earlier but this time even this is not working either. And quite intrestingly my phone won't turn off. I turn it off, it goes off and then restarts on its own and then keep giving the same message again and again.
Could it be a charging cable, is there any chance that the cable which was working fine one day could turn to be "incompatible" with iphone the other day????????
Please help

My iphone 4 does not ring for messages when i use the handsfree..

my iphone 4 does not ring for messages when i use the handsfree..

iPhone supports A2DP audio streaming. If you have it paired to a handsfree kit that supports this, for example, an in car audio system, and are currently tuned to a source other than the phone, the phone will send the audio for things like text message alerts to the handsfree system, but you will not hear them. This is just the nature of the beast. If you do not intend to use audio streaming from the phone, you may be able to disable this in the in car system. This should not affect Bluetooth calling. There is no option to disable this on the phone itself.

When a message arrives,my phone does not ring

Hello hello!3 weeks ago i brought my mobile to be fixed and they told me tht everything was ok and tht my mob was updated...Now,i tried to see if everything is ok,but it still does not ring when a message arrives.I don't know what else to do!!!
(Btw,i ve a nokia C5-00)

Think you need to again get the device inspected by Nokia Care..but before that first back-up all your important data and try a Factory Reset ( Menu-->Settings-->General-->Factory settings... followed by 12345 (Default code unless set by you) when prompted. If that doesn't work..dial *#7370# followed by the code as above. Be warned that this will erase all data from the phone memory ...
Else Nokia Care..

Phone does not ring.. intermittent..

I have had this issue since switching to Verizon. Some calls go through, some do not.
The calls that do not go through seem to happen repeatedly, but not always, from certain callers/phone #s. But I get other calls that do not ring or show a missed call as well.
Cable company came out and called to let me know. Since my phone didn't ring on my end, and they didn't leave a message, they left! I've been without internet for a week due to "missing" their call..
I tried calling my cell from my work desk phone, the cell did not ring. I tried *73, and powered off the cell, removed the sim card, put it back in after a minute, started phone back up. I was able to call my cell successfully twice from my office phone after. Then waited 30 minutes or so, tried again and the call wouldn't go through.
My signal is decent, at least 3 bars, 4g. This issue happens in various places, out and about, at home, etc
I have a galaxy s4.
From reading through various threads, this seems to be a common issue for verizon, is there a resolution yet? This is getting old and I am missing important calls and appointments due to calls not going through.

Pineapple123,
Thanks for contacting us here. We're happy to take a look at your issue. It definitely sounds like it could be a little frustrating and we want to make sure it no longer affects your work or personal life negatively. This is not a common issue and we'll need to take it case by case. What zip code does this occur in? When did it start occuring? Were there any changes made to the device around that time? Please fill us in with the details so we can take a closer look. Thanks!

IPhone 4s phone does not ring. Silencer is off

My iPhone does not ring for either phone or messages. I do not have silence on. Blue tooth is on

How low is the ringer volume set?

Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

Have an iPhone 5. Phone does not ring when calls come in and texts sent from non-iPhones are delayed by 4-5 hours before receiving.

This morning I woke up thinking that I should turn off my iPhone and then call it from a land line. If the problem is the network then there would be a delay before I heard ringing.
I turned my iPhone off and called it. Right away I heard my message.
I turned my iPhone back on and called it. It rang right away!
So, did Virgin Mobile fix the problem or did turning my iPhone off fix the problem?
I don't know, but I'll take either. I do know that Virgin Mobile said it would be four days to check the problem. Did the problem get fixed yesterday when the four business days were up. I do know that I've had my iPhone on for a long, long time. Did upgrading to 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 cause the problem and turning my iPhone off reset my iPhone?
If you have delayed ringing problem and turning your iPhone off and on again resolved it, please post a note here.
P.S. I did call Virgin Mobile and its records show the investigation is still open. I hope my points get passed on to the investigators.
P.P.S. Reading my notes, I had turned my iPhone off and on last week. Maybe it's all the phase of the moon.

Agent Phone is not ringing (outbound)

Hi,
I am using ICM 7.5.7. I have configured agent based campaign for outbound dialing. When dialer place any call to agent desktop agent can accept it and the call is also going to the customer. Both of they are able to talk each other.
Here the issue is when the call lands on agent desktop the IP phone is not ringing. Can any one help me on this.
Regards,
Ashfaque

Switch the dialing mode to preview direct. This is by far the superior method for preview.
When you use preview direct, the call is placed from the agent's phone to the customer directly once they press "Accept". This has many advantages, but the main one is that the agent hears all the progress tones at the other end. There is absolutely no point in making the dialer call the customer from a dialer port (VIP30) and then transferring the other end to the reserved agent. When Cisco came out with preview direct, I changed all my customers over to this method and reaped huge benefits.
Try it - you will understand. This is really a must.
We will come back to your other question in a bit.
Regards,
Geoff
