Siri making calls problem

I have an iphone5s,everytime I try to use Siri to make a call.... It says can't call (contact) using that number. I have turned Siri on and off several times but the problem persists. Any advice or help to resolve this issue? I'm on iOS 7.1.1

You could've mentioned it to save my time.
Do a
Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data

Stopping Siri from making calls

Hi guys, is there anyway of stopping Siri from making calls? The problem I am having is that I use Siri on my motorcycle and at high speeds it gets the commands wrong. For example, I say 'play podcasts' and it calls one of my contacts.

My bad.
I had Airplane mode on but WiFi was also still on when I tested it on my phone.
Scratch that idea...
Here's another one.
If you turn off Siri altogether, you'll revert to the older Voice Control which doesn't rely on a nertwork connection.
Perhaps, that mode will be less likely to misunderstand than Siri.

I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. Help please

I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. I can call the same numbers manually so it's not my network. Any help would be appreciated.

This sounds like an international issue? Although I can not see why? I brought my phone in Australia and operating it in Indonesia, I have the same issues.... Otherwise Siri works fine, even texting (SMS) to local numbers siri works well, but dialing local number it just wont work...! I will try using my Australian SIM card and see if that is the reason.. I tried changing the number in the contacts and took out the international prefix, I turned the international assist on and off still nothing.. How frustrating. I called apple, the technican had know idea and we to his supervisor, had to wait fro 40 miuntes and then I hung up..
PLEASE HELP..!

I continuously have a problem making calls where I have to activate then cancel the speaker phone button. Normally happens when calling landline phones but sometimes mobile. Any fixes?

I continuously have problems making calls from my iphone 4S. When I place a call and press send, you hear nothing until I turn on and off the speaker button and then you hear the ring tone or the person answering. This happens normally on land line calls but does occur when calling mobile phones somethimes. Is this a common problem or is there a fix for it? Thanks

I am having the same problem. Usually happens after I make consecutive phone calls.

I have the problem of calls getting failed.. Black Iphone 4S 16gb IOS 6.1.3. O2 Network. Airtel India. I have full bars of signal but cannot make calls. Goes to "No service" then to "searching". I constantly get "Call Failed" when making calls.

What could be done to solve the problem?

Try settings/general/reset/reset network settings. If that does not do it then contact your carrier

I am having problems making calls and sending text messages and now getting my iphone activated.

I have a iPhone 4 and I had problems sending texts and making calls so I got a new one. I then gave my boyfriend my old iphone snd told him if he could get it to work he could have it. For some reason we are having problems getting it to activate. it wont let us make calles to verizon or anything on it. I do still have a warranty on the phone so would I be able to send it in and get a new one? or how does that work?

Take the device to Apple for evaluation.

Problems with answering and making calls

I have owned a Droid 2 for almost a year now. I love it! But for the last few months I have had a problem with answering and making calls. Sometimes when I answer a phone call it connects like I have answered the call but I can't hear anything and the other person can't hear me. The call says I am connected and I can see the timer going but there is no communication. It does the same thing when I go to make calls sometimes. I can hit send and it connects the call but I can't hear anything. The timer is going and the other person answers but I can't hear anything. The only reason I know they answered is because they then call me back and leave a voicemail, sounding very confused. I have to restart my phone and then the problem is solved. But only for a little bit. I haven't been able to pick out a pattern or anything. It is random and very frustrating. I went into my local Verizon store about the issue and they arranged for me to receive a new, certified pre-owned phone because I pay insurance on my phone. I received the phone the next day and everything went great, for a few days. But this phone is also having the same problem. I am getting very frustrated with this because I need to be able to actually talk to people when they call me. Anyone else having the same problem? I want to go back to the store but I feel like they wouldn't do anything more than they did last time, which didn't solve the problem.

I have this same issue on a bi-daily basis: I can place a call, but then I hear nothing. I can answer a call, but I then hear nothing. The calls connect as the people I am in contact with will tell me they answered my calls and heard me, though I could not hear them - and vice versa. Also, this phone does not like to place a call using the "call" option if dialing from "recent calls". I turn this phone on/ off daily, I've taken the battery out on about 50% of the occassions when this issue has happened. This has been a problem for me for approximately 1yr. My early renew date is just shy of 2 months from now and I cannot wait to get rid of this phone. Aside from having great difficulty making/ receiving calls, the phone is overall slow to respond to basic functions like text messaging or using the camera. Also, most times while taking a picture, the camera will "take a picture" but then there is no image in the file. Highly annoying - the only way to temporarily fix this is to reboot - but like the call issue, the problem recurs. I do have a bunch of apps on installed on the phone, but since I also have an APP killer on the phone, nothing aside from "Weather Bug" app is ever really running in the background that would slow this phone. BUT, right now my main concern is may safety: God forbid I am ever in danger or in an emergency situation, this phone's constant malfunctioning could possibly be the physical harm or death of me. I hope that my family can sue the company that provides the software for this phone, Verizon & Motorola in the event of my untimely death.

Problem with making call on my PAP2T

I've configured my PAP2T, and got a strange issue: each reboot of the PAP2T device will only allow me to make one call, each call after that will get a busy signal. Please help me!!! Thanks!

The device has software version 5.1.6(LS) and hardware version 0.1.5. I've tried both 2-wire cable and 4-wire cable, the result are the same. Have tried to reset the device to factory default and reconfigure, but still unable to make it work properly.
Did more tests, observed:
1. on port 1, after power off and then power on the PAP2T, call to a wired line seems working at first call, but actually NOT: I can hear the ring tone on the phone I'm calling from, but the wired phone I'm calling to doesn't ring. So basically port 1 will not work at all.
2. on port 2, even after restart the PAP2T, call to wired phone will get line busy signal. But this port works fine to call mobile.
I haven't tested to receive call from the PAP2T: need to get a traditional number for the VOIP which cost money, as now already having calling problems, I'd like get existing issues fixed first.

Siri has a problem with the relations of my contact

Hello follks,
Recently i deleted my iCloud id from my iPhone and added another, making sure i get to trasfer all my contacts to the new one. All went well, but since then Siri, despite the fact that she knows who i am, won't relate to my contacts, mother, father, girlfriend etc.
The related contacts are there and all's well. I even deleted my own contact and started from scrath but every time i tell her to call "x" she says there's a problem.
See attachments:
Any ideeas? This is driving me crazy, since that was the only way i could get Siri to call my close ones because she doesn't have a clue how to pronounce the non-US names.

That makes no sense.
Phone calls do not cause lines to appear on the display. What is a "half an hour long form stripes"? Is English your native language?

Making calls on my iPhone/ LockScreen and Message freezing

Hi, ive had my iphone for about six months now, im still under warranty and ive just recently been having few problems that are quiet annoying. My first problem , while making calls i can barely hear what the person is saying to me and they can barely hear me, i dont know if this is a general problem but its been happening for about 2 weeks now. Second, when in my lockscreen and recieving messages my phone just flashes and goes black i then click the lock button on the top and nothing happens.. again... nothing happens then after i like click the button repetitivly it finally come back but doesnt show i have any messagesm and when i go to my messages it doesnt show what the person sent.
Im still under warranty is there any chance of them giving me a new phone?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved.
If they do not resolve the issue, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

My iphone 4 just stopped receiving or making calls. I have tried everything! Help!!!

Okay, one day a little less than a MONTH ago, my iphone 4 just stopped receiving calls(90% of the time) and making calls(50% of the time.). I panicked because my job depends on my phone to work. So, i go to apple, ATT, back to apple, back to ATT, etc. There is no end to this. And, literally, the people at ATT and Apple, keep telling me that they are probably not going to figure out a solution, and that I should just cancel my account. Now, I really don't want to do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!New iphone from apple because they thought it was a ATT problem but gave me new iphone 4 anyway, new sim about 1 minute after the new phone, new phone number. The engineers at ATT said if i relocated and told them that i was moving, it would give me a new number and reset all the routing stuff. I didn't want to do this because of losing my number with business, but had to resort to it anyway. Now I have a number from a different state, and I still have the problem!!!!!!!!! I have exhausted all my options with apple and att, and both tell me the only thing i can do is buy a prepaid phone from a different service! I need my iphone for work, and this has been going on for over a month now. I was told there was a routing issue, but the engineers opened a ticket on it, and NO solution. Then they opened a second case ticket, and still no good. They are claiming I should cancel and buy a new phone. My phone just stopped recieving calls one day. No notification of missed calls, EVER since this started happening. Voicemails go thru( only some of them) about an hour or two later, and texts are taking a bit longer than usual. I have really tried everything the engineers can think of, even getting a brand new phone! Please someone help me!!!!!!!! I am desperate!!!!!!!!!!!! This happens anywhere i go, not just in my area.

Might sound silly but is the mute switch on the left side of the phone in the correct position?
