Phone hangs up when supporting on shoulder
When my wife is using the phone and she has to hold it by squeezing it between her head and shoulder so she can use both hands, it hangs up. I thought when the phone is up to your ear a sensor can tell and the screen is inactive. Anyone else have this happen? I thought you could only hit the end call button when it was away from your head.
If the phone is tilted away from her face, the sensor will be uncovered, and the screen will activate. I've found the same thing when trying to "cradle" the phone with my shoulder and no hands. You have to make an effort to keep it against your face and not tilted away at an angle to keep the screen locked.
An alternative is to press the lock button, which will manually lock the screen while on a call.

Phone hangs up when removing from holster case
Hi, whenever i receive an incoming phone call and i remove my 8830 from the clip-on hoster case, the phone call is "missed" because likely a key is pressed, or the track ball. How can i set the phone such that when a call comes in, i can remove the phone from the case without it hanging up on the person? thanks, chris
Try changing your phone general options to set the Auto End Calls to Never, and possibly Auto Answer Calls to un-holster . You might be triggering an accidental 're-holster' signal as you pull it out.

iphone 4s(ios 7) hangs after i reject calls by pressing the on/off button while it is in the lock screen.I restart the phone every time when i reject calls..what can i do ?
I've same problem in iPhone 5c. I was using iPhone 4, problem appears after updating to ios7. I changed my phone to iPhone 5c, looks like it's a bug in ios7. But I think you might not turn on or off your internet connection frequently to reduce this problem. My friend has a same iPhone she never gets such problem like this cause she uses iPhone 5c with Tata Docomo (India) 2g with no internet connection. May be this would be the best solve that you should not turn on or of your internet connection so frequently...
Do any one have any better idea? -
can turn my phone on only when plugged into the power. everything is still accessable on the when when this is done. but it cant pick up a signal its just serching.
a message says i need to connect to apple/support but i can plug into the computer as its not getting any power and i cant turn on.
I need pictures and stuff baked up on it as i dont want to loose them.
I think the battery/aerial in stuffed as it go some water on it.
will it be possible to save the data when getting repaired???Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.

Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

Back up your iPhone and restore from backup. If that's does not help, restore your iPhone as new (not from backup).

If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step... Be sure to make an appointment first... -

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider, let go of the buttons.

I sent it to reinstalled the software and it looks ok now but, anyone know for new phone, how long the battery will last? My unit found only two days without playing music all the time.
Just an advise
On it's first time fully charge and discharge - vice versa for three times. After that don’t drain your battery every day to 10-20% of its charge. You can actually expect battery problems by draining the battery frequently.
Roughly every 30 charges, deliberately discharge your battery to 10-15%, and fully charge to 100% afterwards.
This will help maintain the accuracy of the “fuel gauge” on the device (your battery meter or scale). It has nothing to do with the battery memory but helps maintain the accuracy of the device’s percentage of battery charge left.
Good luck -
