Since updating iPhone 4 to iOS5, cannot make/receive calls

Since updating to iOS5, I have problems with calling and receiving calls, incuding sending and receiving text messages. Those who try to call me say my phone rings but I do not hear or see anything, my phone is just on homescreen. Can anyone help?????

Hello;
After I have updated to IOS5 my 3GS which always worked very well has been a hassle.
All in the phone works exept that I can't make calls - can you believe m frustration of having a phone wich does-it all exept make/receive phone calls :-(((((
After the update was working fine for a few days. Suddenly after many of my friends told me that always when they call me the calls goes to no where - then I've tried to mke a phone call and guess what..."call failed" message - I have tried all:
I have already restored to factory settings - it doesn't worked
I have re-installed the update (IOS5) - it doesn't worked
I have tried a few tricks I read in another forum (turned-off 3G, turned-off location services, turned-off call waiting, turned-off wi-fi, I have reset network settings a hundred times)I have set manually date&time,) I have tried all things which I believe aren't related to the probelm and nothing works
I have change the SIM card to other operators and - IT DOESN'T WORK...!
I have even done the DFU restore... nothing..!!
I can't express my frustration.... I am an apple lover as I have all gadgets but what is the sense if I can't get help in this issue so basic as phone making phone calls...! I have called customer service and they have no idea what is the problem...!!
please somebody help me...!!!
Cheers..!

Just Updated iPhone 3GS to iOS5, Can't receive any incoming calls at all

Hi, I just updated my phone to iOS5 and now, I'm having these troubles.
- Can't receive any incoming calls at all
- The incoming calls directly goes to voice mail greeting
- No incoming rings & no missed calls alerts
- Also noticed the incoming text with 4 to 5 hours delays
- Sometimes 3G network get lost
The reception (status bar) is good level, can make outgoing calls okay and can send text okay.
I did try reset the network setting and it seems working a few hours then went back to troubles (mentioned above).
I've done 3 or 4 times reset but none have been resolved yet.
Anyone having a same issues?
I have
iPhone 3GS with iOS5
Network with O2 UK
Thanks,

After reset "All network settings" a several times, it seems working but few hours later it 's been gone back to troubles again.
Is this related to iOS5 or O2?
I've contacted the network carrier several times but no-one yet get back to me.
Any ideas, please helps.

Please help after updating my iphone 4 to ios 5.01 I cannot make phone calls or receive phone calls anymore, please help, I am so annoyed first battery and now can't make calls!

The same thing is happening with my wife's iPhone 4 and we can't figure it out. When placing a call, the screen freezes and she needs to restart the entire phone.
She upgraded to 5.01 this morning over the air while it was plugged in. Immediately afterwards, this problem started happening. We've tried restarting the phone several times and plugged in to iTunes but there's nothing she can do do to fix it.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

TS2326 I cannot make any calls or receive any calls since my last iOS update. Does anyone know how to fix this problem

I cannot make any calls or receive calls from my iPhone after my last update. My phone advises callers I am unavailable and when I try to make calls it takes ages whilst it tries to connect then disabled itself and says call failed. Has anybody else had this problem or does anyone know how to fix it?

Cannot make phone calls after update to iOS version 8.1.3

hi i do own an iPhone 6, it was a beautiful phone until i updated to iOS 8.1.3. Now i cannot make phone calls at times, the phone shows no network. I updated the OS from wifi, my mom owns an iPhone 5c it also has the same problem. please help

What you describe...
Two iPhones
Same issue
Same general physical location (your house?)
... sounds very much like " cellular signal dead spot " OR "radio frequency interference"
Test this by noting exactly where in your house that this takes place and also where it does NOT. Repeat until you have a "Map" of the good and bad spots.
You cannot do much about the cellular signal but may be able to troubleshoot the interference problem. This document talks about Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, but the "Sources" might also apply to your cellular signal problem - radio waves are radio waves.

IPhone 6 Plus cannot make outgoing calls and cannot send text messages

I haven't been able to make outgoing calls and outgoing messages through my iPhone6+ since yesterday.
I have done research and have tried suggestions like turning the phone into airplane mode, turning off the iPhone, re-setting the network settings, erased all the content of my iPhone and restored backup, erased all contents and used as new phone but I still cannot make outgoing calls nor can I send test messages. At first I thought I did not have sufficient money on my sim card however when I tried my simcard on another iPhone, it worked perfectly. I also tried another simcard on my iPhone, but it still can't make a call. I have never had this problem since I got my new iPhone6+ last December. This is the first time I've had a problem like this with an iPhone and I've been using the iPhone since iPhone 4s,iPhone 5 and iPhone 5S. Could there be something wrong with the unit that I have? Is there any other troubleshooting I could do?

If you restored the device as new and it did not work, then I suggest you contact your carrier. The function of phone calls and SMS messages is a carrier function. They would need to test your account. Your only other option would be to make an appointment at the Genius Bar to have the device examined.
Can you receive a call and/or message? If so, then I would suspect the SIM and the carrier.

My iPhone 4 microphone that handles standard voice/sound cannot pick-up sound unless the speakerphone, or a headset is used to make/receive calls the other end caller cannot hear me. Any Suggestions? This seems to be common on forums.

Same issue on my wife's iPhone 4S. I suspect it is related to the recent 6.1.2 iOS update (Note: I have a 3S and the update did not cause any issues).
I've tested both bottom and top mics on the 4S using video recorder and both mics work fine. Speakerphone and headset during calls also work fine. The issue is only related to the bottom mic while making calls. I can hear the caller but the caller cannot hear me. If I hold the mic very close to my mouth, the caller can hear a very low level signal.
The problem appears to be software related, not hardware.

Getting message "we are unable to complete your activation at this time" when trying to update iphone 3gs to ios5

After downlaoding ios5 and installing I get the message "we are unable to complete your activation at this time" when trying to update iphone 3gs to ios5 using itunes. Can anyone help?

Hi David,
any luck later?
I'm experiencing the same issue and I see that you're also posting from China. Not sure is location-related but if you managed to activate you iPhone: how did you do it? Just keep on trying?
I'm a bit fed up of trying. It's already two full days...
Thanks, ciao.

hello. my phone is factory unlocked.
but my iphone support one network (Zong) only in pakistan. if i insert another network sim it support (Catch the signl and show the network name ) but cannot make a call or text neither incoming nor outgoing.
plz guide me what should i do.
ios 7.0.4

There aren't any supported carriers in Pakistan. Apple hasn't released the iPhone there. The OP is using a grey-market iPhone and hence is pretty much on his/her own as regards getting this phone working with the carrier, unless that carrier can help.
Regards.

What email account are you having an issue with?
Try removing the account you are having an issue with and then re-add the account via settings > mail, contacts and calendars.
A lot of times this fixes the problem with sending and receiving mail.
Also, check this articles out http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3899 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4810

Hope the above helps.

IPhone 4G. Says "no sim" and cannot make a call. Tried restarting without results.

iPhone 4G. Says "no sim" and cannot make a call. Tried restarting without results.

Could be a number of things causing this. You could try going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. If that doesn't work, try another SIM. Failing that, Try restoring the iPhone through iTunes
If none of that resolves the issue, the iPhone may need servicing
