Phone part of iPhone going crazy

I went to the Apple store and complained about the fact that many times the phone freezes when someone is calling me, that whenever I finish a call the screen goes black. After putting the phone into its original settings and then syncing it back, I was given a new iPhone (which was nice of Apple).
But the same thing is happening to the new phone: dropped calls, the screen does not stay lit when I want to end a call, the iPhone freezes.
It is obvious that it has a virus or a software glitch and by syncing it with iTunes the new phone got the same problem. The problem is with the phone part of the iPhone. The rest (iPOD, photos, internet browsing) is ok.
So basically the problem was not resloved and the iPhone is driving me nuts. As a phone it is terrible! I have no idea the the Apple "geniuses" also have no idea of what's going on!

Ok guys and gals, it seems that other users complained about the same problem. Remember I said it all started right after I synced it with an iTunes update. See this:

My phone also freezes all the time (4 to 5x a day) ever since I installed 1.1.1, sometimes it freezes when trying to select a song on the ipod but most of the time it is freezing when utilizing the phone. I notice that it freezes alot when someone has left a voicemail. Whatever the case, it is getting annoying.

I have to say, ever since I did the update my iPhone freezes at least 2-3x per day. It sometimes wont let me answer a call, sometimes I am waiting for a voice mail to appear, sometimes when i am just playing with it. It never ever froze up before on the older version. I hope that Apple is reading this and has a fix in the works. This coul cause me to change back to my Blackberry if it continues to happen every day.

  • Why phone part of iPhone stops working when I switch on Airport?

    My iPhone works in my apartment. I switch on Airport...iPhone phone doesn't work. Turn off Airport...iPhone phone works.
    Anybody know why this would happen?
    Thanks in advance for any help or smart-ss comments.

    Because it's working as intended.
    The airplane mode is for the exact purpose. It blocks the GSM signal from your phone so when you are in an airplane and they announce to shut off your cell phones you can just pop it into airplane mode and still use your ipod, video and other features.

  • IPhone goes crazy when laying flat while charging

    Hello,
    I recently bought a iPhone 6 for the first time but ran into a small problem and was wondering if anyone else is experiencing something like this.
    When I charge the iPhone through the lightning cable and put it flat on my bed, the iPhone literally freaks out and inputs random commands on the screen. When the screen is unlocked this results in random apps being opened, the screen swiped and random places pressed.
    Strangely enough, this only happens when the lightning cable is plugged in.
    I had a similar issue with a android device once so I'm wondering if anyone has an idea what's causing this.

    I messed a bit around with the phone and figurd that it only happens when I charge the iPhone through a wall usb plug. Using the lightning cable on my mac does not cause these problems.
    Since the iPhone's screen is capacitive, this could be a issue with static?

  • HT4528 Why is my IPhone going crazy?

    It's randomly trying to delete my messages, won't let me text, opens Safari and other windows, won't let me turn it off, and too much more. I have tried to contact Apple without having to drive an hour away just to make an appointment for something that might not need an appointment. Unfortunatly, it just gives me recordings. I do not want to get a new phone AGAIN, because last time, it deleted all of my games even when I used ICloud. Please help me fix this problem and better understand what to do.

    Reset it. Hold down the power and home button together until the Apple logo is displayed, and let go. No settings or data will be lost.

  • How can i stop icloud from downloading all my photos onto my iphone 4s each time I sync. Then, how do I delete them from my phone, there are no delete options. I'm slowly going crazy.

    Hi iprover,
      Let me first say that I am NO EXPERT with anything Apple and really have only started looking into this iCloud stuff a few hours ago because I'm trying to help my mom free up some space on her iCloud. But anyway, here's what I'm learning and what I THINK might be happening to you.
    Also, if any Apple support people (do they browse the forums to dish out helpful hints?) or people who probably know infinitely more than me about this stuff, please do chime in and confirm / correct my statements!
    This is what I gather.
    iCloud for Windows is set up with a local folder (let's call it "C:\Users\Administrator\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream") where iCloud will store photos uploaded to the Photo Stream. This will allow you to view your Photo Stream photos on your PC.
    This does not mean that this is a PC backup of your Photo Stream photos, but just a way to view your Photo Stream from your PC. That being said, the general Photo Stream rules apply: 1. No videos are on the photo-stream, and 2. Photos on the Photo Stream will be removed after ~30 days and/or after hitting the Photo Stream limit of 1000 photos.
    My guess is that the iCloud Windows App will delete photos from the local folder that are older than ~30 days and/or delete all but the most recent 1000 items if the 1000-item limit is reached.
    That is a scary thought! I really hope you did not lose all your pictures, but my guess is that the iCloud local folder is NOT meant for backup but instead is the iCloud Windows App's sandbox for updating and managing Photo Stream photos.
    All that being said, I'd say it's important to back up your photos in a separate folder not related to the iCloud local folder.

  • Help me please going crazy, I have my Iphone 4S getting my e-mails from my computer using outlook but when I delete yhem on my computer they stay on my phone, I am syncing via the cloud, Is there a setting that stopps this e-mail from growing on my phone?

    For outlook or hotmail emails they use a pop server technology that you can't sync your computer and your iPhone with. You have to unfortunately delete the emails from both devices. It is super frustrating but that is the only way.
    Hope this helps.

  • Iphone 5C wifi greyed out and screen going crazy

    Hi I bought my iPhone back in October in Us from Tmobile, since December the wifi greyed out and hasn't worked once (been living on data) now recently the screen goes crazy, it types by its self unlocks the phone (dont have a password) sometimes calls people etc... now the thing is I recently moved to Dubai and I cant go to a apple store as we do not have one here, so could I ship my phone to States and have apple repair it or give me a replacement if I pay for their shipping costs back to Dubai ? Thanks for any help I can get

    If not jailbroken, restore the iOS. Most likely there is a hardware problem
    The warranty is valid only in the USA.  Apple will not accept shipment from or ship to any address outside the USA for this phone.

  • My iphone screen goes crazy when it charges

    Hey there,
    Whenever I charge my iPhone my screen goes crazy when I touch it. If i'm typing whilst its charging it clicks random things and deleted what i've typed. The phone works completely fine when its not charging and I haven't had any other problems with it. I have the iPhone 5c iOS 7.1.1 (about to update after this post).
    If anyone could help me that would be great!
    Ps. Someone posted a video and my phone does the same
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbsNCjbs-xg

    I have the same exact problem and I use an Apple charger and lightning wire cord. Resetting the phone doesn't work and neither does shutting it off and turning it back on. It is infuriating to say the least, especially because this stupid phone spends more time on the charger than off. The battery is crap.

  • My iPhone 4S screen is going crazy

    I bought my iPhone 4S 3 months ago. Since last week, after going under the airport X-rays, the screen is going crazy, either it freezes, or opens things randomly, or doesn't work on parts of the surface.
    The problem is that I bought it sim-lock free in Madrid's Apple store, but now I live in Tunisia. The only support here is provided by the carrier (Orange Tunisie) is for the iPhones sold by them. I don't know what to do. I thought the warranty was a global one for the sim-lock free ones.
    PLEASE HELP!

    And your device has to be officially unlocked, to work with other SIM cards.

  • Just updated my iphone 4 now the phone part is not working... texting, web, and apps appear to be working fine... can't make a phone call.

    Just update iphone 4.  Everything seems to be working except the phone part.  Can not make or receive a phone call.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • HT4623 hi i have an iphone 4s and has not been a year yet no water damage but there is a white cloudy screen around the edges and will start going crazy with different colors and all someone please gel what is wrong with it?

    I switched the usb port and did the whole recovery holding of the buttons ect... And it worked, the computer detected the phone and i was able to click restore. However, the computer says preparing iphone for restore and it is still doing the restarting thing where the apple fades away and then comes back like it is restarting. If i can somehow get past this i will be able to go back to factory settings and resolve my problem, but this is where i am stuck.

  • Touch screen on iPhone 5 is going crazy when i'm typing and using my apps

    is anyone having issues with the sensitivity of the touch screen on iphone 5?  Mine is going crazy!

    Just had exactly the same problem and the stress it caused!
    My phone was calling people, deleting emails and then locking me out because the screen wouldn't respond properly when i tried to put my passcode in...
    Thank you so much for this info.. i rebooted with the power and home button, gave the screen a good wipe with a lint free cloth and crossed my fingers..
    So far, so good. I may even be able to cancel my genius bar appointment for Sunday.
    Thanks again!

  • Iphone 3g mailboxes going crazy since upgrading software

    I upgraded my iphone 3g software last night and now my email is going crazy with unread messages. Messages that I had previously read are now showing up as unread and I am forced to clean out dozens if not hundreds of emails. What's up with this and is there an easier way around it than to delete or open every single message. Very annoying.

    As discussed in several threads on this forum, iOS4 on 3g is a pos. It slows down the iPhone to the point of uselessness. It's bad enough that even Apple has confirmed the issue but no date announced for a fix, if there is going to be one.
