Pantech breakout auto mute, how do I turn it off?

With my Pantech Breakout, when I am on a call, if a button is accidentally pushed (by my cheek next to the phone for example),  so that another screen than the current call opens on the - my microphone is automatically muted...I can still hear the call, but the other person can't hear me, I have to take the phone away from my head, get the screen on, and get the screen back to the call that I'm on...and I see that Mute is selected as I get back to the call screen, the mute disengages quickly.
I can't find any settings related to this, is there a way to make it stop?  This happens a couple times a week, I"m in the middle of a conversation and the other person starts saying "hello, are you there, can you hear me?" because my microphone is muted...I can hear them but they can't hear me, and I didn't do anything except brush the screen or a button accidentally.  Really irritating.
Any way to fix this?
thanks.

    I understand your concerns with the sensitive screen on your phone when making calls tinawind! Your phone should automatically blackout when you bring the phone close to your face as the proximity sensor acknowledges that you are answering a phone call. If this is not working properly, try a quick press to the power button to blackout your screen before you bring it close to your ear. Keep us posted.

  • I have an iphone 4. I recently updated to IOS 7. Now when I am talking on a call, the mute or speaker button will activate. Very frustrating...help. How do I turn it off?

    My iPhone 4 has the same problem. Other people I know have similar issues. Other threads in the forum have commented that there could be a problem with the screen proximity sensor that is triggered by your ear being near or touching the on-screen mute or speaker button. They claim that an external case or a screen protector could cause the proximity sensor to malfunction, or possibly the screen needs to be cleaned. I tried putting a non-conductive thin cover over the phone, and it did not help. In my opinion, the phone works as designed. Other than switching to another brand phone or Apple fixing it with a functional iOS update versus a pretty iOS update, I've only found one solution, which is to use a headphone/microphone or a hands-free device. Of course, using a headphone/microphone is often inconvenient.

  • HT204266 there is no turn off button for auto renewal so how do I turn it off

    there is no turn off button for auto renewal so how can I turn it off?

    Hello there, mophx.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up information on how to downgrade iCloud Storage on your iOS device:
    iCloud storage upgrades and downgrades
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4874
    Downgrade your iCloud storage plan
    You can decrease the amount of storage by selecting a new plan right from your iPhone, iPad, iPod, Mac, or PC (for example, a 20 GB plan to replace a 200 GB plan). The downgrade will take effect after your current monthly or annual subscription ends.
    iOS
    If you're using iOS 8, go to Settings > iCloud Storage > Change Storage Plan. If you're using an earlier version of iOS, go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
    Tap Change Storage Plan.
    Tap Downgrade Options and enter your Apple ID password.
    Choose a different plan to use when your current storage plan expires.
    Tap Done.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • My phone is on silent but my camera still makes sound how do I turn that off ?

    I have an iPhone 6 and i turned all my phone onto silent and there's no sound what so ever but once I take a picture it makes sound how do i turn it off it won't stop every time I take a picture !

    Hello Taniaaychan,
    If your iPhone is muted using the Ring/Silent switch on the side of your iPhone and you're still hearing the shutter sound, this function may be disabled.
    Adjust the volume of the shutter sound with the Ringer and Alerts settings in Settings > Sounds. Or mute the sound using the Ring/Silent switch. (In some countries, muting is disabled.)

  • Apple TV, how do you turn it off?

    When done with Apple TV, how do you turn it off?

    Closest to Off is "Standby" which I beleive you'll find at the end of the Settings Menu OR the Settings > General Menu.
    You can also set it to auto Sleep at a small interval ( I think 15 mins is the shortest ) which does the same thing automatically.
    By the by, It's worth familiarizing yourself with the Settings menu since there are many options there of interest.

    You likely have iCloud turned on in at least Safari. If you don't want Safari to sync between these devices turn one of them off. System Preferences - iCloud - Safari (uncheck the box)

    It sounds that you are running the same iCloud account with two phones.  I recommend you to create a different iCloud account and you should be all set.

  • The 'preview' is interfering in our playing online games ... how can we turn it off ???

    Hi
    Uploaded the Firefox toolbar from my Photobucket account earlier today. We have been having trouble with our Internet Explorer for a while and my son prefers Firefox, so I thought I'd give it a try.
    My fiance' and I play DAILY on goldtoken.com ... a board game site with Scrabble, backgammon, and many many other games. Firefox has a 'preview' that sends us into another screen for a 'preview' of our play ... in head to head tournaments that have 2 minute time limits on turns, this causes a lot of problems ... in regular games ... it is still a great nuisance ... HOW DO WE TURN IT OFF ???
    Blessings and many thanks
    Lace

    I didn't think you could disable that as it's required by law

  • On my own website vdha.us, I am now getting many words that are purple and when you mouse over them, a new spamming window opens trying to sell something. IE-9 does not do this. How do I turn this off in firefox?

    Sirs,
    The below URL came up immediately when I tried to access our Newfangled website this morning http://vdha.us :
    http://surveyprizecenter.com/survey/claimgift-GT-kw-7b.php?t202kw=Vdha.us&trimmedKeyword=Vdha.us
    I prefer to use Firefox and very seldom use IE-9. but now I might be forced to remove Firefox 4.0.1 and resort to using IE-9 because of this situation.
    I don’t know how spammers can use our website to exploit their spamming, but I can only imagine the complaints I am going to get from our Board of Directors and members about this.
    Can you make them stop, or at least explain how it is that anyone can do this without our permission.
    We have never allowed advertisement on our website and don’t plan on starting now.
    I am now also getting many words that are purple with two lines under them, and when you mouse over them, a new spamming window opens automatically trying to sell something. How do I turn this off?
    I would appreciate any expediency in the return of an answer that you can provide.
    Kindest Regards,

    The "MySearchDial" app needs to be removed in 4 places.
    1) Go to "add / remove programs" in your windows control panel select mysearchdial and remove it.
    2) Open your Firefox browser then click the Firefox tab at the top left and select options. You will need to change the start page settings back to your preferred start page.
    3) Again under the Firefox tab select "add-ons". In the add-ons manager you will need to remove mysearchdial from both "plugins" and "extensions"
    4) In your search bar (top right of address bar" use the drop down menu and select "manage search engines". You can restore your preferred search engine and remove mysearchdial from the menu.
    This should remove all the components of the nuisance hijacker and restore your browser back to your preferred settings. If you are comfortable with a more in depth removal I would also suggest going to your "programs" folder within the "C" drive of your machine and deleting the "MySearchDial" folder altogether. However, only do this AFTER you have uninstalled it from your system and if you are familiar with this type of removal.

  • My iphone 4s is dictatating everything. I can no longer scroll through the phone. I have to double click all icons How do I turn this off?

    My iphone 4s is dictating everything. I can't scroll through the phone. I have to double click on everything. How do I turn this off?

    With Voice Over, you highlight whatever you are trying to select and then double tap anywhere on the screen to select.
    So for your password of 1234 you have to
    "Highlight 1, then double tap the screen, Highlight 2, the double tap the screen,... etc."
    In order to remove you have 2 options:
    Option# 1 – Turn off Voice Over
    Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
    Double tap screen to go into settings
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
    Double tap screen to go into general
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “ACCESSIBILITY”
    Double tap screen to go into accessibility
    Once you are in make sure that EVERYTHING in that section are shown as “OFF”
    Option #2 - Reset your Phone
    Go to setting by, highlight "SETTING
    Double tap screen to go into settings
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and highlight "GENERAL"
    Double tap screen to go into general
    Use 3 fingers to (swipe) scroll of down and then highlight “RESET”
    Double tap screen to go into reset
    Select “Reset all setting” and continue to follow the instruction
    (When you reset, all of your data and music WILL NOT erase. So don’t worry about that)
    Hope this helps.

  • I can no longer view my photos through th photo icon.  There is not an icon on my "slide to unlock" screen that when touched starts a slide show of my photos.  How do I turn that off so I can access my photos as before?

    I can no longer view my photos through th photo icon.  There is not an icon on my "slide to unlock" screen that when touched starts a slide show of my photos.  How do I turn that off so I can access my photos as before?

    Oroilore-
    I do not see a way to disable the Picture Frame icon.  I looked at Settings-Picture Frame, but none of the options turns it off.  The only way I can thinik of, would be if all of your photos had been deleted.  If there were no photos, you couldn't have a slide show!
    One thing to try is to reset (reboot) your iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.
