Phone in iphone 5 suddenly does not work

Help! Suddenly the "phone" on my iPhone 5 doesn't work. Worked two hours ago, but now, just says "searching" when I hit a number in recents. Tried using the keyboard and contacts...nothing. Other iPhone features work: Safari, email, all there...except the phone! Any ideas?

Using another phone, I called my daughter, who works at an AT&T call center. She said the same thing: do the "soft" reboot using the Sleep/Wake button and the home button. Leave it off for 5 minutes, which knocks you off the network. Hit the sleep/wake button and the iphone woke up fresh as a daisy and reconnected to the network and now works great! Thanks for getting me started in the right direction!

    There is only one speaker, what looks like another speaker is actually a microphone. All iPhones only have one speaker down by the dock connector.

    Hi sigrun from mo,
    If you are having a button issue on your iPhone that prevents you from doing further troubleshooting, you may need to have the phone serviced. You may find the following page helpful:

  • How does one do a two way contacts sync between an iphone and outlook? Most of the community has answered as this to be "always so", but it does not work! Changes made on outlook get done in my iPhone, but it does not work the other way around!

  • IPhone 3G - 3G Does not work after upgrading to 4.2.1

    Once again Apple has screwed something up. Upgraded to 4.2.1 on Friday and now my 3G reception does not work. I've factory restored and still no good. Whats up with the quality control these days? Seems as if every software update across iOS and Mac OS/X has at least 1 major flaw.
    Does Apple read these posts?

    my problem is more curious i use 4.2.1. on a 3g iphone which is "open" from italy
    my network is kpn/simyo
    4.2 everything worked... no tethering offered
    4.2.1. most apps including safari weather etc are not able to use the data network,but the NS dutch railways app is able to use the data connection
    and suddenly i get offered tethering in the network settings
    But the screen for manually set your network settings is disappaered, so as my provider cant send setup files to my phone makes it impossible to manually setup a phone network, which is strange for an "open" never been locked iphone
    Will see what happens the next day as there are more buggs reported about network and 4.2.1.
    WIFI works perfectly....
    Was planning to buy an iphone 4 but if apple cant guarantee the use of what you buy..... by issuing software with flaws..... If they would just offer a downgrade option for software..

  • My iPhone's sound does not work except for the alarm and the volume bar is not there.

    Hi, thank you in advance if you can help.
    When my iphone 4 is not plugged in to headphones the sound does not work, and if I try to adjust the sound with the plus and minus buttons in the side it comes up like normal saying "Ringer" but then there is no bar underneath it. Sometimes the sound will work for a couple of minutes. However, there is definitely no problem with the speaker as the alarm always works perfectly fine.
    I have tried restoring it, this did not help.

    what you could even try is to write down a few contacts that you would need to get through a single day, restore it to factory, punch in those few odd contacts,
    No.  What he should be doing is syncing his contacts to an app on his computer or cloud service, then sync them back to the phone (without restoring the backup). 
    Never rely on the backup for contacts.  The contact info stored there may be incomplete and is only meant to maintain the recent calls and favorites lists.

  • Ios7 iphone 5 Tangoe does not work

    Hi
    I am getting message saying "iPhone not activated" when trying to install profile on my phone
    rest all features are working fine
    thanks,
    Mani

    Try a Reset first: Hold down the home and sleep buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.
    If that does not work try a Restore in iTunes.
    If both the above fails get it serviced.

  • Double escaping suddenly does not work anymore.

    Hello,
    We have WCF Data Service that is configured to use
    double escaping according to this article
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/peter_qian/archive/2010/05/25/using-wcf-data-service-with-restricted-characrters-as-keys.aspx
    During a long time (a year or more) this solution worked well for us. And suddenly, a week ago, we found that on some our services (in cloud, in out of cloud)
    double escaping does not work anymore.
    For example, request to our service may looks like
    http://service-host/odata-service/ContentTreeNodes('ID-%257BFEE06CEE-F667-45A2-9014-394F4B7CD3B0%257D')/
    In sample above we have ID that without double escaping looks like ID-{FEE06CEE-F667-45A2-9014-394F4B7CD3B0}
    But when our service processes this request ID becomes like ID-%7BFEE06CEE-F667-45A2-9014-394F4B7CD3B0%7D.
    And that is means that .NET (WCF Data Services) infrastructure removes only single escaping and forget (ignore) to remove second one.
    We have an assumption that issue probably maybe caused by some Windows security update. Because on some PCs it works well.
    Does anybody have similar issues?

    Hi,
    I suppose you tried to uninstall this patch from Azure VM. If so then yes, it can not be done. Seems it prohibited by MS or at least I do not have answer how to do it.
    At the same time I had no such problems with out of cloud PCs.
    BWT, we recently found that we do not require double escaping anymore in our service, because single escaping now works well for us. Looks like MS fixed an issue regarding # symbol in URL path. Now if URL has # in some URL path (for example in entity ID),
    then single escaped # works well.
