Phone falls asleep in middle of a call

I was in the middle of a call and being asked to press 1 for such and such and the phone just went black even tho the call was still connected. Couldn't do anything to get the screen up and I had to reset. This never happened on my original phone. Anyone else? Any ideas what the problem might be?

If its your original iPhone case that would be the problem.
If the case covers the top of the phone around the earpiece then it will also cover the sensors. Apple moved the sensors in the new phone so most full cover iPhone original cases will not work correctly with the iPhone 3G as it will thinkyou always have your head against the phone and so blanks the screen.
To test, remove phone from case and try it, think you will find it works fine.

    Bummer.
    Without having the top button, you couldn't do a hard reset.
    I'd say you might be looking at backing up and restoring through iTunes unfortunatley.

  • Phone drops sound in middle of call.

    My 8310 dropped the sound in the middle of a call.  What i mean is, I was talking to someone and all of a sudden i couldn't  hear them at all.  Dead silence.  It is still that way.  I can hear a phone call if I put it on speakerphone, but otherwise nothing. I can't figure out how it happened or how to fix it.  The calls are connected, I just can't hear anything. Does anyone know what this is?

    Welcme to the Suppot Frums!

  • If I fall asleep on the phone, will my alarm still go off?

    I sometimes fall asleep on the phone, will my alarm still go off if I'm still on the pone at let's say 8 am. But not awake, will my alarm sound and wake me?

    You fall asleep while on the phone and the other party doesn't hang up during all that time?
    I've seen posts here with people complaining about an alarm they have set going off while on the phone or while doing something else. I'm pretty sure an alarm that is set will sound off regardless which is by design so the alarm isn't missed.

  • Why does my phone automatically hang up if i fall asleep on the phone?

    Everynight Im On The Phone With My Boyfriend And We Both Fall Asleep, But When We Wake Up The Phone Has Hung Up But Neither One Of Us Hung Up... Why Is That?

    I don't know the particulars but it's not hard to image that when the connection detects no traffic for a certain period of time it automatically disconnects.

  • Hearing problems in the middle of a call

    ive having problems with my call lately , iam in the middle of a call and the other part begin to hear a kind of static meanwhile i can hear them clearly, its weird because it happens quen the headsets are plugged too, but when i put the mophie juice pack on the phone the problem disapears, i wonder why this is happening and if theres a software update to relieve my phone of the static noise=?

    It may be that the phone is set to remind you when your balance falls below a certain amount. Its usually $5.00, I have been on the phone for long lengths of time and have never had this happen. Check under Setting and Tools and sound or voice settings. Also notifications settings. There mights be somewhere that says "remind me"

    I recently upgraded from an iPhone 4s to an iPhone 5.  I have a Motorola HX550 Bluetooth Headset which worked flawlessly with the iPhone 4s.  However, since upgrading to the iPhone 5, I frequently lose audio when in the middle of a call.  I am not certain whether it is a full disconnect or just an audio loss.  The person on the other end reports still being able to hear me, however, I suppose they could hear me speaking over another source even if bluetooth disconnected. The loss of audio is always preceded by a quick shrill noise, so I can easily tell when it happens.  All I have to do to fix the problem is to select Audio Source on the call screen, temporarily switch audio back to the iPhone, and then switch back to the headset, and then it starts working again.
    Is is important to note that I am not the only one experiencing this issue:
    This is a link to someone using the Motorola H19txt headset experiencing the same issue

    If you go to the Plantronics website and look at the "Ratings and Reviews" on the Voyager Legend you will see the same issue reported:
    http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/voyager-legend (next paragraph is taken from the review since there is no direct link to the review.
    Really nice Headset unless you own an Iphone 5. I own several Plantronics headsets and have always loved the quality/ performance. This headset seems not to be compatible with the new Iphone 5. In the middle of a conversation it will lose all incoming audio. This leaves you trying to switch audio sources really fast in order not to lose your phone call. Ive tried 3 legend headsets and they all do the same thing. Hopefully this gets fixed soon because the headset is really nice
    Since this issue appears to affect multiple headsets from multiple vendors, I think it is fair to conclude that it is an issue with the iPhone5 bluetooth itself.
    I am posting this as a new discussion as I don't see any other posts specific to this iPhone 5 Bluetooth issue.  I would have reported this as a problem to Apple, but don't seem to be able to find a way to do this on the web.  Hopefully they are already aware, but if not, maybe they will see i here.

    here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
    There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
    Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

    My Iphone5 was replaced and having same Problem. Only does this when using bluetooth for talking.

    I have the exact same issue... I've been using a Jabra Extreme2 and just this weekend, bought a Plantronics Marque2 and today had the same issue, so it's clearly not the headset but the phone or OS.
    I might try a restore and see if it helps...

  • Dual G5 falling asleep again ramdomly, need help!!!  DUAL G5 2.0gHz

    I can't get any work done. I updated to the latest greatest OS that software update told me to do and now every time I try to work on anything processor intensive the computer fall asleep and I need to hit the escape key to wake it up. This will sometimes happen 2-3 times in one minute. I've posted on this problem several times in the last year and usually I've been able to get the machine running again. However this time nothing is fixing it. I've downloaded the combo update, trasted the ,plist files, reset the PRAM and cleaqned my cache, repaired permissions, booted from 10.4 install disc, run diagnostics, checked log files for thermal runnaway (never seen that one). Unfortunately this computer is about 3 years old now and all warantees and apple care have expired. It's had issues since the get go. I've had to replace the logic boar, case and one of the processors. I'm about to pay the 50 bucks and call apple but I was hoping that there would be a solution here first. Please help. My business is suffering...

    Try this again also. If you have issues with a Mac or display that goes to sleep at inappropriate times, you may have a problem with Energy Saver. Delete the following .plist files and restart:
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
    -/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systemuiserver.plist--
    (username is your name or System Administrators name)
    -/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.AutoWake.plist
    A restart is very important after deleting these plists. After a reboot your Mac will then generate new ones.
    Some, in these forums, have had luck fixing sleep issues downloading the Combo update from this site (yours may be corrupt), not Software Update, disconnect all firewire + USB devices except keyboard + mouse, Repair Permissions, re-install update, Repair Permissions again + try.
    Yours would be the 10.4.8 Combo update. Others reading, download the combo update that applies to you!
    Cheers!

  • Phone cuts out in middle of conversation, I can hear other person, they cant hear me, any clues?

    Phone cuts out in middle of conversation, I can hear other person, they cant hear me, any clues?

    I had the same problem with mine.  It had a faulty proximity meter.  When in a conversation, the screen should go black when it senses it's near your face.  Test it by calling someone and placing your hand over the phone.  If it doesn't go black, you may have the same problem.  When that happens, your cheek can hit the mute button..

  • Can I transfer a call to another Verizon cell in the middle of a call?

    Does anyone know if it is possible to transfer a call to another Verizon cell in the middle of a call?  Not call forwarding, but transfer during the call?
    So, I answer the phone and talk to the caller.  Then, I want to transfer the caller to Joe on another cell phone.  Is there any way to put the caller on hold and transfer the call to Joe's Verizon cell?
    My understanding is that call forwarding only works for the initial phone call - the call forwards to another number, but it won't work in the middle of a call. 
    Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks

    All the older Nokia phones you answer a call – you can put it on hold – call someone else, tell him/her that you are transferring a call – press  4 and hang up. Those two can continue the conversation together.
    That’s what I’m looking for.
    With Lumia I don’t want to be the 3rd wheel in the conversation... 
    I haven't found the way to end the call so that the others could continue (not even with conference call)

  • Mac falls asleep when battery gets down to roughly, half charged

    it falls asleep once it gets to this point, and then i wake it up and the charge has gone right down.
    Does it need to be calibrated? or is the problem bigger than that?

    Most likely you need a replacement. There are known issues with MBP batteries, and an extension of the battery warranty to 2 years, as described on this page:
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbook_macbookpro/batteryupdate/
    Go to System Profiler (Apple menu > About this mac > More info) and click on Power. If the Full Charge Capacity is less than 4400 mAh for a 15" or less than 5000 mAh for a 17" MBP, your battery is failing. If your Cycle Count is less than 300, your battery is failing prematurely and Apple will replace it for free. If that's the case, call Apple or visit an Apple Store for a free replacement.
