Phone screen not reappearing to end call

My iphone 5 since ios7 update, will not recognize the phone being tilted/moved away from the ear when done talking...the screen remains black so I cannot end the call until I tip it a couple of times. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

do you have a case on your phone and is it a 3G one (it should be)-
The wrong case or a badly made case often causes an issue if the case is covering the sensor which senses when the phone is to your era by the lack of light. Some cases get in the way or may be moved up to cover the sensor whilst you are on the phone - the sensor is located just to the right (as you look) or the speaker

My i4s phone does not ring on incoming calls. The settings appear to be correct

My i4s phone does not ring on incoming calls. The settings appear to be correct for the phone to ring.
Also, during a call, when I hit the speaker buttom, I can neither hear nor be heard by the other party
Any suggestions?

Try a factory restore, this might be a software problem so just plug into itunes and go and click the restore button. If this doesnt fix it then its a hardware problem meaning you need to head to an apple store for a replacement.

My phone will not ring when a call is coming in.?

Yeah, because if the switch isn't on, the phone is put on vibrate.

HT4515 phone does not ring during incomming call

phone does not ring during incomming call

Is the phone silenced? Check the button on the side of the phone above the volume buttons if you see an orange line it is silienced, slide it to the front of the phone and it should correct this. Also ensure the volume is up. If you've checked these and still nothing are you able to call people? do you have service?

My phone will not send or receive calls

My phone will not send or receive calls; it goes straight to voicemail and when I try to send a call, it will not connect. I have reset, rebooted, and tried just about everything. Any other suggestions?

What did your carrier say when you contacted them and reported the problem?

I have installed a ringtone but phone does not ring on incoming calls

I Have an Iphone 4S, it came with vibration set as default ringtone, I changed the ringtone but the phone does not ring on incoming calls, What is wrong?

Also, you may want to do a reboot, hold both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider if it appers, so that everything is reset.

My phone does not know who is calling even thought that number is in contact list

Hi everyone,
I recently synced contact. The phone number style is now XXX-YYYZZZZ. What happened is when someone is calling me, the phone did not recognize who that is.
Anyone know how to fix this? I do remember the phone style in my contact used to be like (XXX) YYY-ZZZZ.
How to convert from XXX-YYYZZZZ to (XXX) YYY-ZZZZ?
Thanks

If Your Display Unit Shows the Wrong Name
Please Contact your carrier by phone, Live Chat, or email in order to have a carrier agent correct the name that appears on the Caller ID display units of those calls.
Caller ID Caller ID shows the name and number of incoming calls. Caller information will appear between the first and second rings on a customer-provided display device or display telephone, giving you the opportunity to screen your calls before you answer. Caller ID will also store names, numbers, dates and times of incoming calls (storage capacity varies with your display device model).

Screen not locking when on calls

When on a call the screen will stay up the entire time causing my cheek to press buttons that end calls, mute, call third parties, ect.

Remove the case or screen protector that is blocking the proximity sensor that disables the screen when you hold the phone to your face.

Torch 9860 does not disconnect after ending call

Hi,
I have been having this peculiar problem with my blackberry torch 9860 smartphone for the past 1 week. After finishing a voicecall, in many situations the phone does not disconnect even if I press the end call button repeatedly. It just seems to "hang" for 30-40 seconds and then disconnect. Sometimes it dosconnects only if the person at the other end hangs up.
Kindly help out in solving this issue

Try a Battery pull please, with the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery 15 seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot device. This will clear all cache like rebooting a PC. Then try again and see if your problem persists.

FaceTime not able to end calls

when using face time I can video call with good quality but when unable to end call or change camera the touch screen is frozen
the other person has to end the call
using a 16gb iPad air with 8.1.3

Most likely it's a bug in their system. However you may wish to report this to them if you are Apple Developer like I am! Hope this helps!

My phone will not make or receive calls since i did the update to 6.0

I updated the IOS 6 a month ago and now the issue arises just today. I can make outgoing calls but unable to receive incoming calls and text messages.

And I realised that when I'm making an outgoing call, and I used another device to call my phone and it able to receive. But when I'm not calling out, the call unable to receive and it says that Out of Network Coverage Area.

Phone does not ring on incoming calls

Hi,
I hope someone can help or advise on my issue - see points 3 and 4.
1. Tested with 2 analogue phones - 1 phone definetley known to be working at a separate location - and a mobile phone.
2. All tests conducted twice - at master socket and internal test socket/ ALL other extensions& broadband line connections removed during testing.
3. Incoming calls do not ring on the analogue phones, but calls can be answered if analogue phone is picked up.
4. When hanging up on an incoming call, the analogue phones do not kill the open line. I have to terminate the call on the mobile as well.
5. Outgoing calls can be made and picked up by mobile with no issues.
6. Online BT Line Check reports no faults on the line.
7. Both analogue phones were checked to make sure they are not in silent mode.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks
Ben

I had this problem recently - caused by a fault in the BT line box just outside the house.
3. If you ring your number from a mobile do you hear the phone ringing in the mobile? I my case there was just a short ring heard in the mobile and then silence - picking up analogue phone you could then talk to mobile.
3. This is normal. Reverse cleardown takes some time - I think it is about 10 mins. I often use this feature when I pick up a call on one phone and want to move to another extension. I just replace the first phone, so no phones are connected, then go to the other extension and pick up the call.

Phone does not ring when people call your number

A lot of people have complained that when they call my phone I never answer even though the phone rings. However, the iPhone does not show a missed call. Years later I get a voicemail indicator. My phone shows full signal strength and the thing never rings. I have noticed this way too many times so I decided to post this question to see if anyone else has noticed the same thing.

The most common causes for this behavior:
1. Bad coverage/roaming (unlikely, since you said you have good AT&T coverage)
2. Frequent EDGE use (calls will go to voicemail if you are actively using EDGE)
3. Defective or improperly set ringer (if this were the problem, you'd be registering a lot of "missed calls" in your Recents list, which I assume you are not)
4. Bad SIM card
If you have eliminated #1-3, then it is likely #4. You can get your SIM swapped out very quickly at the AT&T store.

I need to talk to someone from vzw about my phone screen not turning on. Because the phone won't turn on, I can't call to get assistance. Why is it so ******* hard to get help online and be able to talk to someone????

Iook above

The S4 has documented issues with the display going dark for no apparent reason. This happened to my wife's S4 twice, and both times the phone was replaced under warranty. The problem seems to originate with a small, undetectable crack under the surface glass on the LCD display. These cracks develop structurally and not the result of abuse or accidental damage.
If you take it to a Verizon store, they should be able to confirm there is no damage to the phone and get a replacement under warranty ordered for you. At least, that's how it worked for me.
Oh...just for kicks, try holding down the home button and the power button together for 10 or 15 seconds. This is a "reboot" of the phone and may or may not have any effect.
Good luck!

"Slide to call" will not let me end call

The slide to call feature, aside from being a AMJOR security flaw, seems to have another bug, unless someone can help me. If I choose to "slide to call" a missed call, I can have a perfectly fine call, but when I am finished I cannot end the call. All I get is the passcode lock screen, with a passcode already answered (not one I entered - it just looks populated). The only way to end the call seems to be to unlock the phone and end the call from there.
So anyone can call back a missed call (even if my phone is locked) but I have to lunlock it to end the call. Tell me this is wrong - seriously wrong. Or fix it.
I accidentally called someone back (foolishly thinking my phoen was locked), and then could not hang up - so they could still hear me, even though I assumed the call was ended (the "0" number looks slightly red so I assumed it was to be pressed to end the call - but there appears to be nothing on the website to tell you how this feature works - should I be able to hang up a call?, should I even be able to call someone back without unlocking the phone (which sounds so unbelievably luicrous for a locked phone)

Hey kmeand!
It sounds like it would be best for you to have the settings for phone notifications showing in the lock screen turned off. You can control these settings on your phone by navigating to the Notifications center in the Settings app, then find the Phone notifications settings, then flip the toggle switch for "Show in Lock Screen" to off. More information on this can be found here:
Notification Center - iPhone User Guide
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6534c01bc
As for addressing your issue with ending a call from the slide to return call feature, you may need to try to force close the phone app then test again, or reset the phone, then test again. I have two articles for you to help you with these troubleshooting steps, and they can be found here:
