Why after 4 hours does my iphone 5 say called failed?
Everytime i am on my phone for about 4 hours, it just ends my call and says call failed. Why is that? Is there anyway i can fix this?
The "call failed" message means that your iPhone lost communications to the cell tower network. There are many possible causes for this. It could be that your battery is getting too low to keep the connection alive. It could be that the radio is overheating from being on for such a long period and it is failing to work within specs. It could be that your ell provider has something set in their towers thinking that it is an error when a call lasts that long, and they "fail" the call to prevent tieing up resources on dropped calls that didn't disconnect on your end. We would need more details to try to narrow down the probelms for you.
A number of years ago I was on a 2 hour cell call for work support overnight. About 45 min-an hour into the call my cell gave me a low battery indicator so I connected the AC power and contiued the call. At about 2 hours in, the phone got too hot and it just turned itself off dropping the call in the middle. At that time, it was a phone issue, but cell phones weren't designed to be used for 2+ hour calls then, so I don;t know of any cell phone that would have done better.
To be honest, I'm not sure why you are using an iPhone for 4 hour long calls now. There are so many better options.

My iphone 4 says call failed and message failed?
It was locked to orange but just had it unlocked to work on my T-mobile sim. Had this issue even before I got it unlocked. I have just bought this off of somebody and it keeps saying call failed/call ended just after I have dialled and then when I try to send a message it says message failed, however, I can get onto the internet using my signal alone and not connecting to Wi-fi. Incredibly confused as to why this isnt working. I have full signal. Done a full restore on 2 different computers still with no result. Really at the end of my tether with this, someone please help.
Operating system 4.3.5
ThanksI faced similar issue where I was getting signal, able to receive calls, use all data services but everytime i went to make a call it said "Call Failed"
You need to try to go to Settings>>Phone>>>Show My Caller ID>> Ensure it is On.
Even if it appears on try switching off and on.
Mine was not allowing to switch off and on but something I did worked and then able to make calls.
Also try Settings>>>General>>>Reset>>Rest All Settings
I faced issue of not being able to make calls after switching my sim card from postpaid to prepaid. First it dint recognise the sim at all then on pluggin in to itunes i was able to activate and atleast receive calls, use all data only everytime i tried makinng a call it said call failed.
When i restored to factory settings it worked. However on restoring my backup i faced the same issue.
Apple local support was most unhelpful saying that i had to forget my data and work with a new phone without contacts, apps, etc -
Why won't my facetime connect completely. Says "call failed"
My facetime was working just fine two days ago. But now on my iPhone 4s, it will make the call, go through to connecting and then say the call has failed. I have tried logging out and re logging in to facetime for both parties and it's still not workin.
Hi onelifedani,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I recommend going through the troubleshooting steps in this article if your FaceTime calls are not connecting:

I'm trying to restore my iPod and the update says it's going to take 9 hours and then after 2 hours or less it will say something about "unable to finish update." Why is this?? My iPod is a 3rd generation that I got from my brother and even when I download an app that doesn't require my iPod to be an iOs 4.3, it will download, but it won't open.
Did you check your security software settings to be able to restore? iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues

Why after buying apps does it tell me "Cannot download game until you sign-in to itunes on ur computer?
How large are the apps and are you trying to download them over 3G or wifi ? There is a 20 meg download limit per file over 3G, if the app is larger that that you either need to connect to a wifi network on your iPad in order to download it on it, or download it on your computer and then sync it to the iPad.

Does the iPhone let the caller know if the person thry are trying to call is on another call
Does the iPhone let the caller know if the person thry are trying to call is on another call. Both are using iphones

Surely would be better to get sorry the person you are trying to call is on another call.....
Why? It doesn't change the fact that they are not answering my call. If they want to let me know why, they will.
It used to be the case that my carrier would put a beep at the end of the ring tone if the person you were calling was on another call. But they stopped it ages ago. -

hi can anyone help me im using my iphone to make a call to a number that has been changed two days ago but it automatically says 'called failed' why? please help!
Here's a nifty agorithm to fill an array of primes, using a forever loop with a labeled continue statement, from Horton's Beginining Java:public class MorePrimes
public static void main(String[] args)
long[] primes = new long[20]; // Array to store primes
primes[0] = 2; // Seed the first prime
primes[1] = 3; // and the second
int count = 2; // Count of primes found - up to now,
// which is also the array index
long number = 5; // Next integer to be tested
outer:
for( ; count < primes.length; number += 2)
// The maximum divisor we need to try is square root of number
long limit = (long)Math.ceil(Math.sqrt((double)number));
// Divide by all the primes we have up to limit
for(int i = 1; i < count && primes[i] <= limit; i++)
if(number%primes[i] == 0) // Is it an exact divisor?
continue outer; // yes, try the next number
primes[count++] = number; // We got one!
for(int i=0; i < primes.length; i++)
System.out.println(primes); // Output all the primes -
Hi! I brought an iPhone 4 off my friend at work. The day I brought it, it was working fine but now I can't seem to send any messages or make phone calls. The network is showing up fine but each time I try to make a call it says "call failed" I can't seem to send any messages either? I can use the Internet fine and everything else on the phone. Can anyone help?
Hi chelsinator,
You can reset the phone and it won't cause any problems or cause you to lose any data - Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears.
The other thing you should do is to reset your network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to set up your Wifi again, but that oftentimes clears things up.
Cheers,
