  • I just upgraded my iPhone4s to iOS7 and now I am unable to make phone calls and send/receive text messages. Network signal indicator on the upper left side of the display shows hollow circles instead of full circles. Any idea how to fix the problem?

    I just upgraded my iPhone4s to iOS7 and now I am unable to make phone calls and send/receive text messaes. Network signal indicator on the upper left side of the display shows hollow circles instead of full circles (but with the network provider name). I checked with my colleagues in the office who use the same network and theirs work just fine on iOS7. Any idea how to fix the problem?

    I have also called my service provider and my service remains active in the network. I tried removing and reinserting my SIM but to no avail.

Anyone please tell me how to use Miss Siri to make a phone call ? ( Note : Location : Cambodia , Phnom Penh City )

    No, the feature works at home by going through your iPhone to make the call.
    There are Apps for the iPad which allow this: Skype, etc.

  • SP-3102 - Unable to make VOIP phone calls after switching router

    I had to change the router from Netgear (g) to Belkin N+ (n). Changed the SPA-3102 config to DHCP, it picked up an IP and showed the 1st 3 LEDs lit, status Registered. So, good news.
    I am able to receive VOIP phone calls, but not able to make phone calls, it won't dial. I installed slogsrv.exe and got the following log: syslog.514.log. Unfortunately, it's chinese to me.
    Please help,
                Daniel

    Try checking any settings on the old router which you might need to configure also on the new router to get VoIP working like port forwarding, dmz or disabling the NAT. The Belkin might have a feature like NAT which behaves differently so you might need to open up VoIP ports or enable NAT mapping and NAT Keep Alive on the SPA.

  • Can't make a phone call

    I keep getting an error that I can't make any phone calls on Samsung S5. I just missed an important call, and I can't call them back. Now they're closed. I'm furious. I have internet and text is slow but going through. I can't even call to get help on this issue. I saw a response to pm @ATTMobilityCares. How do I do this? How do I get help if I can't call? My truck is at the mechanic, and that's the call I just missed, so I don't even have transportation. Ughhhh!

  • Can't make a phone call to an specific number

    Hello:
    I got a curve 8520 and the problem I've been having is that from a couple of days to now everytime I try to make a phone call to this specific number it gives me the busy tone and the message "call failed" but it gets better, I still can receive calls from this number, text and even use the whatsapp application to talk to my friend. What should I do? I must say that I was able to call this number before with any kind of problems, this phone number is from a diferent carrier than mine also

  • Is it possible to make a phone call (not FaceTime) from my iPad if I'm using 3G and not Wi-Fi?

    I was tyring to send a text message or make a phone call from my iPad when I was on hotspot with my iPhone but it didnt work...
    I use this feature when I'm at home on Wi-Fi. I would like to know whether this is possible or not...

    Siri used to work fine when making mobile calls in Ecuador until yesterday, when the administration of Ecuador added an aditional number in all mobile numbers existing in Ecuador. Since then Siri is unable to make any mobile calls with any new number.Help
    I`ve tried restarting, rebooting, nothing works.
    The interesting thing is that SIRI can call to previous mobile numbers (without the new digit) obviously not connecting , and, can call to any other numbers as an office or home number. So the problem is the new digit in the mobile number

    Ecuador has added an extra digit to mobile phone numbers but apple wont accept 10 digit phone numbers so we cant use facetime or apple IM or verify our new phone numbers. ( and Siri won't work either!) I have contacted apple support online but can't request a call back as the apple system says our new phone numbers are invalid. I am going to phone them tomorrow and you should complain too at http://www.apple.com/support/contact/.  . The more people that bring this to their attention the faster it will get fixed

  • I can't make a phone call from my iPad. But, I can receive phone calls. What am I doing wrong?i can reci

    I am able to receive phone calls on my iPad air 2. But, I can not make any phone calls. I am using an iPhone 6. I have set up both as required. What am I overlooking?

    Hi Bo S.,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you cannot make an outgoing call using your iPad. Included below are the instructions for using Continuity to make calls from your iPad. If you are set up correctly and still are unable to make a call after following the information in the article, please let me know at what point in the process the failure happens and what happens at that point. 
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support

  • I don´t know how to make a phone call whit my ipad...and how to sent a message? is it possible?

    i don´t know how to make a phone call whit my ipad...and how to senSeleneGMt a message? What do i need? or is it impossible?

    You can't; not natively, anyway, since the iPad is not a phone. If you want to make a call, you'll need to use some third-party Voice-Over-IP service such as Skype.
    I'm not sure what you're asking when you ask about sending a message. If you mean a text message, you can either use iMessage, which can send messages to other users also running iMessage, or you can look in the iTunes Store for SMS apps, a few of which are available. They use separate services to actually send the message and so require an Internet connection, either WiFi or 3G.
    Regards.

  • I RECEIVED AN ERROR MESSAGE THAT I COULD NOT MAKE OR RECEIVE CALLS AND I HAD TO RESTORE VIA ITUNES.  I HAVE DONE SO AND LOST LOADS OF APPS ETC (MY FAULT FOR NOTBACKING UP) BUT STILL UNABLE TO MAKE OR RECEIVE CALLS.

    Phone is only a few months old and was working fine last night - it ran out of battery but on being charged up this morning it was effectively locked.  I received an error message that I could not make or receive calls and I had to restore via itunes.  I have done so and lost loads of apps etc (my fault for not backing up) but still unable to make or receive calls.  Anyone had anything similar and can advise who I should contact or what I can do.
    Thanks,

    try contacting your carrier and see whats going on.

  • Verizon iPhone unable to make or receive calls

    Hello everyone, my Verizon iPhone is intermittently unable to make or receive calls (yes I do have reception). Has anyone experienced this before? I've called Verizon customer service and they were no help and suggested replacing the device at the apple store which I did. Verizon tech support ended up saying they would look into my issue with the network team, and contact me, which they never did. Apple sort of suggested it's a Verizon issue, and was not going to replace it for that reason, until I told them my battery was dieing quick too (luckily I had a screenshot of usage). So they're kinda blaming eachother- and I'm stuck in the middle with no support/help. I've tried ALL of the troubleshooting procedures. Do you think it's a Verizon or iPhone problem? What should I do?
    One reason I think it's a Verizon issue is, I've had 2 iPhones that had the same problem- what are the chances of that? One reason I believe it's a Apple iPhone issue is because ALL of the Verizon phones in my household work perfectly all the time, except mine. Again it's intermittent, which is why I recorded videos.
    Here is my brother's iPhone calling mine (both Verizon): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWvZN90_adk

    My iPhone calling a friends phone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGcB6uH0Ax8
    My friend calling my iPhone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCnJc4e_DAQ

    I have tried all the troubleshooting methods on the iPhone before this one multiple times by myself and with verizon tech support. Anyways, I gave it a try on this iPhone except the restore, because I want the apple genius to be able to run a diagnostic on it. I did the restore on my prior iPhone and he said he couldn't run the diagnostic because I restored it.
    My results from the troubleshooting link:
    1. Check Signal - I have 3/5 bars, still doesn't work
    2. Reset Network Settings - I did that, still doesn't work
    3. Verizon Update Preferred Roaming List - My iPhone gets "Call Failed" when dialing *228 (btw I already did this the day I got this iPhone).
    4. Check Carrier - 4 of the 5 Verizon phones in my house work perfectly, so I doubt it's a carrier issue at this point. But I will give Verizon another call tomorrow morning to make sure.

  • Make Cell Phone call ?

    Hello,
    It's simple question:
    How could I make cell phone call from Java class ?
    Is there any required hardware or Java library ?
    Thank you very much

    Is there any required hardware or Java library ?Well, required hardware would be a cellphone or a similar hardware system that can actually perform the required sending.
    I can imagine a native library would be needed, unless the JTAPI has really improved since I last looked at it.
    Usually people attempt to send an SMS via Java, what were you planning to do with actual cell phone calls?
    Also I'd recommend serious googling.
