whenever I call my home phone, I hear a lot of snap crackle pop sounds with 3G active. If I turn off 3G, this stops. How do I fix this?

there is no fix. It's a GSM 3G thing. I used to be able to go to the movies and put my phone next to a movie theatre speaker and it do the same thing....
i just figured the newest 3G technologies did away with it

Well known scam called my home phone from a Skype ...

Hi,
Recently I have been contacted 2 or 3 times a day at my home phone number from 'Computer Maintenance Department' or 'Windows Department', claiming my computer was sending them error messages. The latest phonecall came from Skype number 001 956 460 5604.
This is a well known scam where the perpetrators aim to convince their victims that their computer has a virus and then persuade them to allow remote access in order to 'fix' the problem.
As this came from a Skype number, how do I go about reporting this?

Let me add to my earlier response. DO not even attempt to discuss this matter with comcast or their techs. They simply are unaware of the problem and can do nothing to fix it. Call Neustar at the number I gave you in ealrier post.. Tell them the problem and either have them delete your cellphone number from their data base or set the caller id to show city, state and your number. Deletion is probably better. Tech at Neustar did this told it would take effect in two hours and the problem was gone in 5 minutes. I am sick and tired of disconnects, talking to techs at comcast who barely can speak english, mumble, one told me today to go to the website and disable call blocking from my cell then call home and then reenable it after making the call. LMAO! Yeah, while driving down the road. This afternoon I got a call from a rather arrogant tech who didn;t want to hear the problem, didn;t undertand the problem and tried to blame the problem on my cell service. No problem when I call anyone outside of Comcast and it was corected once before . So the problem is with your cell phone number listing at Neustar. Since Comcast uses Neustar for their caller id numbers they should be be able to delete or correct entires but apparently cannot. Good Luck, my days with comcast are limited.

Why do you insist in calling my home phone EVERY hour to complete a survey!

I have been interrupted on no less than 3 conference calls while working from home today. I even called and politely asked that I stop receiving them but received ANOTHER interruption. I am happy to complete a survey but not during my work day and there is ABSOLUTELY no need to call every hour!!!! Maybe once per day!

practicalnurse,
Have no fear, Verizon is here. I would love to go over the account with you to figure out what happened? Was this for Verizon Wireless services or for your home services? I did request to follow you. Can you please accept that request and request to follow me back. Then once we are following each other you can send me a Direct Message: http://vz.to/1fbIKzK Please keep us posted.

HT201436 My phone will not come on just the apple faintly but before this I could not reach anyone. It would ring the person I called but they could not hear me What is the matter?

My I phone 5 is not coming on. If I try to start it the apple comes on faintly and then it goes out. Earlier todaye I called a cell and it worked fine.I tried to call my home phone and it would not ring yet my Husband tried to answer but I could not hear him. When I dial out it does not ring on my end and when they try to answer answer I can hear them but they can not hear me. Took it to the Bell dealer in the Mall at Kindersley Sask. and they put a new card in and no different.At that time it was still coming on and now it will not.have not had this phone very long and I am not impressed. The people I bought it from phoned and they told him to reset it but now it will not come on and the battery is not dead. Can I take it back to the dealer
I bought it from and have him replace it? I do not want to have to wait 2 weeks for a phone.

"racb" and "Allan Jones " sorry I dindn´t noticed that I was in original Macbook Pro... my mistake.
thank for noticing it
anyway maybe it could be some similar program. use the second DVD from OSX restart and keep pressing D until it makes de "Dooong" sound make a hardware test

Caller id says MY OWN HOME PHONE NUMBER is calling itself!?!?

Today I apparently got a call from myself, or a ghost! The phone rings, I look at the caller id, and it says that it is my HOME PHONE NUMBER calling my home phone (itself)!! I answer, and no one is there. This has happened before, and I just want to make sure no one is hacking my phone number somehow. Anybody know what this means??

Home phone blocks my cell phone?!?

For some time when I call my home phone number on my cell phone, my home phone blocks me. It doesn't do it with any other phone. Could there be something on my cell phone that blocks me from calling that number?

What do you hear when you call?? Any message or error code??

Can i use my ipad2/iphone or touch to interface with a home phone landline?

My house phone has broken and i was wondering if there is a docking device that can be interfaced with one of my apple products to make it utilise my landline.

If you have an iPad, you're more than welcome to get a VoIP client (Google Voice, anyone?) which will let you make calls...and as we all know, iPhones can make calls.
Home phones are getting cheaper and cheaper, so I don't see why you couldn't just fix the home phone for ~$20.
Now, if you wanted to ditch your landline and make your iPhone act like a landline, I'd check this dock out: http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/29/desk-phone-dock-review/

Anyone know how to get your landline home phone to ring when your cell phone rings...I have no cell service in my house!

When you are on your way home, you can forward your calls to your home phone. Cancel forwarding when you get to an area with service.
*72-xxx-xxx-xxxx with the x's being your home phone #.
*73 to cancel.
You can also do this with Google Voice.

My iPhone 4s no longer has sound for any of the applications but it does have sound for phone functions. Where is the setting for app sound? I have gone to the multitask screen and the volume bar is empty.

I recently found my phone outside in light rain (it had been there about 20 minutes). It had some glitches at first, however after letting it rest overnight it seemed to mostly recover. The one problem I am having is that I no longer have sound for any of my applications. I do have sound for phone fuctions, and I am able to use the speaker for phone functions.
When I am in my applications, including music/videos, the only way I can hear is if I use my earbuds. I am able to make a video and it will record sound just fine.
When I go to the multitask screen, the volume bar is empty and I cannot adjust it using the side buttons (even though in settings I have that feature activated). I completely reset all of my settings tonight and that did not make a difference.
Is there a setting I am missing, or am I just SOL? I am trying to avoid having to get a whole new phone but it is very frustrating to not have sound with my applications.

The screen is black . i can.t get it to respond.Power + home soft reset didnt work. Itunes could detect any sync apps. I used my home phone to call my iphone and on my home phone i can hear the calling tone.But my iphone didn't ring/screen did not light up. Its a iphone 4. Any ideas how to fix this?

If the basics (restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new) don't work, you'll need to bring the phone to Apple for evaluation

I have a wireless home phone connect device. Can call out on it when dial tone present, but most times cannot receive calls since purchase. Anyone else having a problem with their home connect device?

Have had Wireless Home Phone connect device refreshed and updated three times since I purchased it in September 2014. Last tech I worked with on it initialized an NRB to check the network. I checked the location of the tower, which is less than one mile up the hill with clear line of site. The device always has two antennas on it. The device is great when it does work, but most of the time it rings three times and then jumps to an automated message saying the person I am calling is not available. I've actually gone up there several times to try an fix the device, but always end up calling a Verizon tech who has me unplug it, pull the battery, and they do some network stuff and then we turn it back on and it works. After the last time on 10/02/14, I called it and got the message. I drove up there, 100 miles one way, and called it while standing in the room. Got the same message. I picked up the phone, heard a dial tone and dialed my phone and it range through. I hung that phone connected to the device and call it using my cell phone. It rang through. I went home and tried to call it the next day. Again it did not ring through and I got the message after three rings. I call another phone at the facility and had them call me on my mom's phone and it is fixed it again. The fix last for a day or two and then it's broken again, like it is today. If it's a network problem then it must be fairly close to the area because no matter what we do it fails again. So much for the 99.98% reliable. This thing is a piece of junk!
I purchased this device and put it on my plan so that my mother who we placed in a home at 96 years old would have a phone connection that she could use and wouldn't flip her out. My family and her family has not been able to faithfully connect with her at this critical time in her life. I am giving Verizon 10 more days to figure this out and then I am going to ask for a total refund not to mention how much time and travel I have put into this piece of junk. Either the home connect transceiver is broken or the network is broken. Why should I pay close to $70 for a service that has not worked more than several days out of 35 days? Also I have spent close to three hours on the phone with decent technical people, but it's my time. I should send Verizon a bill for every time I have gone up there to fix this device as well.
What perplexes me is that a regular cell phone would have sufficed, but because Verizon has to have a data connection that is not available on a regular phone and it was going to cost me $30/month, I decided to go with the home connect. Seemed like a nice solution for an older person who would have a hard time using a cell phone and keeping it charged. Plus after all the fees for getting it connected, it only cost $20/month. That would be a pretty good thing, IF IT WORKED....... The other thing that irks me is, why do I have to pay for a data connection when the cell phone Verizon originally provided can't even access the network. What ever happened to adding a phone line for $10 bucks\ month? All I wanted was a simple phone. She would not be able to use anything more complex and all she needs is a phone line period.
I have no problem paying for something that works and does what it should, but this is ridiculousness. The MTF on this device is somewhere around 1 to 2 days. Out of 365 days that's about a 96.5% failure rate....... Want my advice? Get ride of this device. It sucks and it's bad marketing.

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

LOCAL CALLING AREA FOR HOME PHONE (landline)

Verizon has not resolved my issue with my ability to call ONE of my LOCAL CALLING AREAS. They have passed me NUMEROUS times over and over to many different problems and have not resolved anything. They say they cannot hold on the line while they wait for a supervisor, I keep hearing i will be called back, and do not get any calls back. They "say" they are working with me and a supervisor, and yet still nothing. I contacted the Local Access Transport Area (LATA) and have been told that the numbers I am trying to reach ARE local. Also, I have NEVER had any problems reaching these numbers in the past and ALL OF A SUDDEN 1 out of the 7 local calling areas I cannot call. The local calling area HAS NOT changed and never will according to LATA. One of the reps had the nerve to tell me that another of the "local calling areas" I have is regional, so I had to burst her lil "tell me anything to shut me up" bubble, that she was not gonna feed me that line of **bleep** seeing how I just got off the phone with someone in that area. Verizon seems to be feeding me a lot of **bleep** to try and silence me or so they dont have to try and figure this out. (cause apparently they cant) I have been dealing with this for over a week, many Reps, many repair techs and NOTHING. The repair Techs (automated recording) calls me back and says We cannot find the problem but your line is working properly. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! DUH! NOW, I have no choice but to contact Consumer Affairs and file a complaint, and I have also been advised to contact the BBB and local television station so that they can run a story. WHAT TO DO NOW!!!

Hi GimmieDps,
I'm sorry you are having difficulty with your calls from home. I have escalated your concern and an agent with access to your account will reach out to you directly by email, private message in the Forums and/or the billing telephone number on your Verizon account for more information or to help you resolve your issue.

My Iphone 4S is showing a blank scree though a caller hears ring when he calls me.My phone is passcode protected so i am not able to syn it with itunes as it ask me to unloack my iphone first .Any solutions??

try doping a hard reset. hold the lock and home button together for 10 secs or till the time apple logo appears. once logo appears release the keys and wait for phone to boot ... good luck

My iphone 4 does not register calls made to it. if i make a call from another phone, i can hear it ringing, but it does not register on the iphone. also, i do not get any messages when this happens. then after a day or two it decides to start working.

Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if better. If still problem clean charging port again with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

Whenever I call my home phone, I hear a lot of snap crackle pop sounds with 3G active.
