Verizon iPhone 4S voice

Does this new dual-chip mean anything as far as doing simultaneous voice+data with Verizon?

The limitation of no simultaneous voice and data on VZW (and Sprint) has nothing to do with the device, it is merely a limitation of the CDMA network.  There is nothing that Apple (or any other device maker) can do to get around the network limitation.

  • Iphone 4 voice memo quits on opening

    Verizon iphone 4 6.1.3 Apple Voice Memo has started quitting less than 2 seconds after opening reverting to home screen. Has never happened before and will not stay open now. Re-synced with itunes, turned off and on a number of times now and no relief with issue. I use Voice Memo almost daily to record song ideas ....    What is going on? I searched for an answer on Google, Apple and Verizon and no fix is in sight. Help. Thank you.

    Please list the iOS version your iPhone 4 is running, since that may have a bearing
    on the issue, and perhaps any helpful advice someone may offer in passing.

    Frankly, after looking into iPhone support, I am amazed at how lame and wasteful of my

    So one of the other things is to look in search engine results, per example:

  • Verizon iPhone 4 Battery Draining issue (continued)

    This is not a question or help topic but more of an announcement. Here's my story:
    I preordered the phone on it's February 3rd date and recieved the phone on February 7th. I did as Apple instructs when you get a new idevice (drain the battery down till it dies then recharge it to 100%.) I did that and began to use it, and keep in mind this was not heavy usage at all. I didn't have any app store apps installed at all, I set all settings in the phone to the best configuration for battery saving (truning off push notifications, turning off location services for apps you do not need, no bluetooth, no VPN, brightness at 33%, ect.) Now I thought the battery was strange as I had made my first phone call on 100% battery and it was a 5 minute call. I kid you not I lost 10% battery from one phone call. I thought that was rediculous so I went into my local verizon store and had it replaced. I did the same as I did last time and let the battery drain till it died and filled it to 100%. Tried the phone out and still had the same issue. I went back in and got my 3rd iphone 4. Did the same steps as before and drained then filled it. Yet again, I still had troubles with 3 phones in a row. I cantacted apple and got in contact with an apple engineer named Andrew. He sent me a file that they created that monitors what all is being used by the battery and monitors background processes and applications. I let that run for 24 hours and sent the battery loggin file back to Andrew. They reviewed the log and gave me a call the next day. They told me they did find some very significant battery draining and advised me to go to the nearest apple store ASAP and have the phone checked out. I drove 2 hours to the nearest store for them to just tell me the phone is fine (yotta yotta yotta) and they did a hard reset and restore on the phone (which I could have done from home on my computer and save the gas they made me waste driving for a total of 4 hours!) I tried contacting Andrew agiain but Andrew did not reply to any email sent to him nor return my calls. I got the point that he didn't want to deal with me anymore so I then decided to go the Verizon route. I called Verizon tech support and was transferred to a teir 2 representative. I told her my story, how many replacements I had, and how bad the battery life was. I told how my grandmother has an iphone 4 and I sat down comparing the 2 (battery life wise) and she chewed me out saying things like, "How dare you compare AT&T and Verizon!" I didn't want to listen to her chewing me out so I hung up. The next day I gave apple a call once again and they told me things I had already heard several times so I hung up. I called Verizon back and they said ok let's send you a replacement phone. Well the replacement phone came and wouldn't ya know it? The phone still had the same problem and on top of that they only sent me a phone. No box, no headphones, no USB cable, no charger. I called Verizon about this and asked why they only sent me a phone and they said, "Well you get to keep the phone but we want the other things back. The box, headphones, charger, USB cable, ect." I told them no and that they could have their refurbished phone back. This phone was not even refurbished. the reason I kow that is because it had someone's name written in the phone and it was still on 4.2.5. Had it been refurbished they would have done a fresh restore and update as 4.2.5 was deemed obsolete. That was very insulting in my opinion. So I sent that back and contacted apple one last time. I asked what other options I had as I was stressed and did not want to hear the same things I have already heard. they said they could send me a new phone free of charge and have me send back my current phone. I agreed to give it one last shot but I am still not confident that this phone will be any different.
    Now that's my story. Now let me go into a discussion. I have been doing my own litle "investigation on this phone to see what is making this phone drain so bad. I took a look at a report from iFixit.com and they revealed some pretty interesting things built into the Verizon iPhone. I am not going into detail about it but you can google it and see for yourself and read the article about the components. They built the phone with not only CDMA tech but also GSM. Now what purpose would that serve? Honestly? That is a big battery drainer right there. Secondly, they found that the phone contained a different model battery that was lighter and had less capacity than the GSM version of the iPhone 4. That's a second red flag. My mission right now is to get Apple's attention that these phones do indeed have aproblem and they need to be looked at because this just aint workin'. I have had several replacements done (all have the same issue), several thousands of people are reporting the same results with their battery on the web, and Apple chooses to ignore it. Something needs to be done and I encourage any Verizon iPhone user to take action and make this issue known. I have a website with contact information of people who work high up in the chain of Apple along with Scott Forstall's contact info. Go to http://idevicesupport.webs.com/apps/blog/show/6441029-update and find a contact you like and call it and deman that apple investigate these phones. We can get this issue resolved if we make it known. Don't be mean or nasty to them. They are very nice people but at the sametime don't let them talk over you. Make your voice heard. Thanks for listening guys. Take care. - Joe

  • Ios 5 possible firmware bug for iPhone 4; Voice command/text-to-speech doesn't work properly.

    I upgraded an AT&T and Verizon iPhone 4 to the ios 5 firmware, and I am having the same exact issues for both phones.  When using the voice command a few times, the audio voice does not come through the "speaker" (referring to the speaker located at the bottom of the phone).  Instead, the audio voice goes through the receiver which is on the front face of the phone, on the right of the camera.
    For example, say you want to use the voice command to dial a phone number.  You would enable voice command by depressing and holding down the "Home" button and give the command "dial...1-800-452-3456", the phone would then repeat the phone number back to you through the "speaker".  However, when I did this a few times, the voice instantly goes to the receiver instead.  I found no way to fix this problem.  I tried the following and none of these solutions worked:
    Turned the phone off and back on again
    Hard reset (held down the Home and Lock button for 10 seconds)
    Restored the phone, and set the phone up as a "new iPhone" instead of restoring from back up
    After trying to restore both iPhones and still have the same issue, I made an appointment to visit Apple.  I took the Verizon iPhone 4 to Apple, and the employees handed over a refurbished iphone in hopes to solve this issue.  However, this refurbished phone still had the same exact issue. 

    Of course I checked my apps library and found nothing. However I'm looking at the status while sync is processing, I'm 100% sure that app is not synced to my iTunes library
    Yep, I can always manually "transfer purchases" to my iTunes library. But this is not the point. On my old iPhone 4 and new iPad (3rd gen), it will sync all newly installed apps from my iOS devices to my iTunes library, no need to click "Transfer Purchases" again.

  • Verizon iPhone(s) reception

    It's whacky, but I've a problem with 3 Verizon iPhones at my company.
    Our company phones are a mixture of Sprint and Verizon with a plethora of personal devices and carriers.
    Cell reception inside the building was unacceptable so the decision was made to install a repeater/signal amplifier.
    For the most part, the effort has supplied spectacular results --- Except for the Verizion iPhones.
    I can place a Verizon iPhone next to a Verizon Motorola, the Motorola gets great reception, the iPhone acts like the repeater was never installed.
    The handfull of ATT and Sprint iPhones are just as happy as the androids, great signal reception.
    Not so with the Verizon iPhones.
    I suspect the issue is more with Verizon's configuration than the phone, but it could be mechanical with the CDMA iPhones.
    Anyone have an idea where to start, or to resolve what I'm hoping is a simple (if obsure) configuration setting?
    Thanks in advance!

    WOW, 
    Had a talk with the "head genius" at the local Apple store -- best I can say is he was blowing smoke at me.  Suggested either I try shutting down the phones and letting them re-aquire the signal (sort of over ruled by the other iPhones in house) or to check the LTE setting was ON.  I'm not sure how the data side of the phone would effect the voice but I guess it might be possible, stuck me as funny the other suggestion was a Bill Gates "alt, ctrl, del" reboot!
    I did try both suggestions, absolutely no change in the symptoms.
    Next stop was the local Verizon store -- Initial sales guy at least listened to the issue and got the store manager involved. Neither had an idea (and probably though I was the one smoking a controlled substance) untill another sales accociate piped up and said "Oh yea, happened to my parents"  Her mom's iPhone is a paper weight at the house, her dad's Droid is rock solid.  Generic signal booster was no help, her parents had to resort to a Verizon IP network based cell extender.
    Unbelieveable! Not sure if the issue is burried in the Verizon specific hardware changes in their iPhones or the Verizon specific software configuration but at least I'm not the only victim of the problem.
    I wish a generic iPhone reconfigured for Verizon was a viable option, probably more trouble than it's worth and I'm not willing to buy a an over the counter iPhone just to test the theory.  Sigh.
    The hunt continues.

  • GPS apps on Verizon iPhone 4

    I'm thinking of ditching my Droid for a Verizon iPhone. The only thing holding me back is the lack of a voice activated/voice directions GPS. Does anyone have any experience with any of the gps apps that are available for the iPhone 4?

    There are many, many iPhone Nav app reviews on the internet.  You'll find more thorough info much faster there.
    Personally, for car navigation, I much prefer a dedicated nav device, i.e. Garmin Nuvi.  The UI is not quite as good but they do one thing and do it very, very well.  It just seems to be more of a hassle on the iPhone when I (or someone else) may want to use it for something else other than navigation, i.e. finding a restaurant, phone calls, texting, news, email, books, etc.

  • EMPLOYEE DISCOUNT FOR NEW VERIZON iPHONE 4 CUSTOMERS

    Not quite sure if my employee discount will apply to the voice plan that I am considering purchasing.  Will iphone 4 purchasers be allowed an employee discount, all of the other phones allow this - very confusing.  Any information on how to apply an employee discount to a new verizon iphone 4 customer's account at checkout or after would be appreciated.

    you go here and check if your work email works if not you need to follow the instructions of faxing some info or just go into the store and do it there.

  • IPhone MAP voice dies in the middle: DANGEROUS

    My iPhone's voice directions stops in the middle of giving me directions and then quits after 5 minutes.  Needs a reboot to get the voice back.
    Details:
    1. Lookup some place on Maps.
    2. Navigate to there (the usual directions stuff from Map's pin)
    3. Route and Start.
    Here is what happens:
    1. Voice comes on and starts giving directions (turn right in 100 ft, etc.)
    2. Within 5 minutes, the phone becomes silent and stops giving directions.
    3.  Map is still alive and shows all the visual information.
    To Get Voice back:
    1. Restart iPhone (this is in the middle of driving).
    2. Enter pin number to get into the phone (this is in the middle of driving).
    3. Got to map app (this is in the middle of driving).
    4. Wait for Verizon signal to come back on.
    This behaviour reminds me of Microsoft Software:  Reboot for every use, reboot at least once a day, features work half of the time, features are partially implemented, etc.  I'd rather NOT have this feature than a feature which quits in the middle of driving.
    For me the iOS map application is DANGEROUS. 
    Platform: Latest iOS 6.1.3, iPhone 5.  Carrier: Verizon,
    My technical skill level: very good.

    "You have never heard of this issue" ...  I am facing this problem.  So either it exists or I am making it up.
    I really don't have the time to write this unless I have been in serious trouble because of this bug.  So do not assume this problem does not exist.  It probably does on other phones but shows up with less frequency or maybe more.
    It is dangerous if you are likely to end up in the "combat zone" of a city and you don't want to stop as it is dangerous in the middle of the night and the MAP application stops giving you directions.
    I paid money for it and there is no choice after that: neither for Apple nor for me.  It has to work well as there are other products that have been doing this well for many years using ancient processing technology.
    You may ask me not to use it.  Dude, I paid money for it.
    BTW, just so that you know that I have the utmost respect for Apple:
    I have been working on Mac products for close to 30 years and I know the amount of care that the developers put into their products.  Apple's developers are beyond normal; they are amazing.
    This MAP application, however, seems to be not quite up to par.

  • I have orphaned voice memos on my iPhone5 and cannot delete. Listed in iTunes but not on my iPhone's Voice Memo app.

    When I upgraded from my iPhone 4 to iPhone 5, a bunch of voice memos were orphaned.
    What this means is that when I connect my iPhone to iTunes, I see the voice memos.
    They are listed in iTunes under my iPhone directories  "Voice Memo" and in "Music".
    But I cannot delete these.
    When I go to my iPhone, the Voice memo app has changed (ok) and you can see there
    are no voice memos. It appears that they are orphaned from the voice memo app.
    So the voice memos are in my phone somewhere.
    How can I delete them or export them or something with them?
    I can't play them except on iTunes. They don't show up in Music in my iPhone.
    Thanks for your Help

    I have the same problem and I still can't delete that stupid song. I downloaded it from Starbucks almost over a year ago!!!

  • IPhone 4s Voice Memo App has 5 second delay when the record button is pressed. When it starts recording, it goes from 0 seconds to 5 or so seconds recorded. This happens randomly and often and sometimes has the delay but starts at zero. Solution Anyone?

    After iOS 7 update, my iPhone 4s Voice Memo App has 5 second delay when the record button is pressed. When it starts recording, it goes from 0 seconds to 5 or so seconds that it shows has recorded. This happens randomly and often, sometimes it will have the 5+ second delay but starts recording at zero seconds. Besides the delay it has been working fine as far as saving and playback is concerned. I have plenty of storage on the phone itself and it NEVER had this problem before I updated to iOS 7. I've reset the phone a couple times by holding down the power and home buttons at the same time. The reason I have an issue with this is that I'm always recording song ideas, melodies, and scratch takes; what I'm saying is when I come up with an idea I need to be able to know that when I hit record it will start right then so I don't forget anything that has just popped in my mind.
    Does anyone have a solution or suggestion?
    Thanks
