Why doesn't my phone ring?

Since downloading the iOS 7 update,I have not received notifications (vibration or sound) of any kind when my phone is in the sleep mode or the locked screen mode. I've checked every possible setting there is and none has solved this problem. I believe this is a glitch in the update. What can be doe to resolve this issue? Can I revert back to the former iOS?

Even though you discover that the Do not Disturb mode was activated. You should check out the new settings for vibration. In ios7 you have the ability to disable vibration when you have the ringer switch to "silent", orange bar showing. Basically making it in Do Not Disturb, but you'll still see the notifications on the screen.
You could enable or disable vibration phone wide for both ringer on or silent on.

Why doesn't my phone ring when I've got screen lock activated?

This has been driving me crazy and I need to know how to fix it.
I like to have the screen lock activated on my phone (otherwise it will be in my purse calling people without me even touching it) but when I get an incoming call my phone doesn't ring, it will only vibrate so I'm missing alot of calls because I'm not always near my phone to hear it vibrate.
Also, there's nothing to alert me (a sound played every few minutes) when I missed a call or text & its causing problems for me.

cem421,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble with the phone ringing but we certainly want to make sure that is addressed. When your phone is not in screen lock does it ring as normal? You may want to check your sound settings to see if you have it set to vibrate in silent. Also if that mode is set you want to make sure the switch above your volume buttons is set up, otherwise the phone will not ring while in screen lock mode. Keep us updated and I am sure we will get this figured out.
Thank you,

HT4528 Why doesn't my phone ring when I call it?

Can someone help me with this?

Do you have the mute switch on ? Its the switch on the top left side of the phone, if it shows an orange color , you have it on mute.

iMessage and FaceTime went down yesterday for some people. Mine is still down. My iMessage is saying the same thing about being activated. Sounds like you are still down too. Ignore the status page that says everything is fine - it lies.

Why doesn't my Phone work properly with my Cars Bu...

Car manufacturers are now building complex car kits into their vehicles.
The companies include:
Ford, Audi, BMW, Alfa Romeo, Peugeot, Vauxhall/Opel, Volkswagen, Mercedes, and other high end specification cars.
One of the functions, is that it pulls the phone book data from the phone via bluetooth.
Background Information
A lot of the Nokia E and N series, Symbian S60 handsets, do not carry the required bluetooth profile in their bluetooth stack.
The phone is missing the Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP) that allows the car to pull data from the phone.
Why the phones do not carry the profile is unknown. What is known is that using the Nokia 810 car kit downloader software, you can partly restore some of this functionality.
Additionally the Nokia 616 Car Kit Downloader will also function, along with the Ford Connectivity Downloader.
Workaround
The information is here:
http://europe.nokia.com/A4143881
You'll need to delete the existing pairing in the handset and the car, then install and run the application, don't just install the application and expect it to work, you must re-pair the handset and the car.
When it is installed start the application, and then re-pair the phone to the radio, this may then copy your contacts into the radio, be paitent, as it can take a few minutes to copy and setup.
It may copy the phone book over, but the Missed Dialled and Received calls may not work.
I have tested this with an Audi S3, A4, and A6 on a Nokia N82 and N95.
The Nokia E71, appears to have the profile and functions correctly with an Audi car kit, in Handsfree Profile mode.
The Nokia E71, when connected in SIM access profile mode is the same as the other E and N series handsets are requires the 810 or 616 downloader to be installed in the handset.
Installing the 810/616 downloader only restores phone book functionality, there are some software combinations on car and phones that work without the downloader.
It may also be possible for your car manufacturers franchised dealer to be able to update the software in your car so that additional features are available, they may charge for this service. Also updating software in the phone may also help, as Nokia may see fit to add the profile if they are able.
For some cars and handsets, when you are connecting with the SIM Access Profile function, you will still need to install the 616/810 downloader application as detailed above, as the phone normally switches off most of its functionality. The phone book will then normally function when you have installed the application.
The workaround only resolves the problem with the phone book. Problems such as random disconnecting which also is reported, are beyond the scope of this article.
Edit: 24-01-09
I have noticed recently that random disconnecting can be caused if you have an Internet Telephony Service running in your handset. Also if you have the WLAN discovery setting enabled then this can cause the same problem - whilst I am not attempting to try and resolve random disconnects, it could be a reason for why this is happening.
I have recently installed a VoIP service in my handset and 100 mtrs from my home when the handset disconnects from this service at my house, the Bluetooth disconnects from the Car Kit, in my E71.
Edit 14-04-09
Audi also make a Bluetooth Sim Access Profile adapter for their Generation II and Generation III (Low) mobile telephone interface. (Audi Part No: 8P0051440) The SIM access service will require the 810 phone kit downloader application. With this on my kit I am getting disconnections with Bluetooth. To prevent this, I switch Bluetooth off and then on again prior to connecting to the kit, this resolves the disconnecting.
Edit 12-05-09
Further to the Audi edit above, I now have an Audi S4 2009 with the Audi Mobile Phone Preparation (high) for this to function correctly with phone book access the 810 Downloader needs to be installed, and running when the phone connects to the car every time it connects. Otherwise the phone book access does not operate.
Edit:12-06-09
You can also use the Ford Contact Downloader application from
http://www.ford-mobile-connectivity.com/ - select downloads then Select a Nokia E or N Series Device and download the contact application (this works fine in my Audi)

You didn't mention the Mute switch above the volume buttons on the side.

Why doesn't my phone always add photos?

Sometimes my iPhone 4S will add photos to my photo stream where I can access them on my iPad but not always. Why is that?

Your iPhone needs to be in WiFi (not cellular) coverage to add the photos.

Why doesn't my phone auto-lock after one minute?

From the settings - it's checked to auto-lock after a minute, but for some reason - this does not always happen. I have tried turning off the phone and back on again - that did not work. How can this be resolved?

probably. turn it off for sometime , restart the phone and check.

Why won't my phone ring when it is charging?

It vibrates but won't ring...

Are you SURE that you're using the charger that came with the iPod? The iPod and iPhone chargers are too weak.

I just updated my iPhone 5 and Siri sounds more like a robot and I don't know what's wrong. My iPad Siri and my moms iPhone Siri sound like real people. Why doesn't my phone Siri sound like it should???

Siri sounds more robotic on my iphone for the iOS 7 update..... Help????

Hello smartbud,
The following article provides steps for changing the way Siri sounds.
Can I change how Siri sounds?
New female and male voices will be available initially in U.S. English, French, and German. You can change the gender by going to Settings > General > Siri > Voice Gender. Your iOS device initially uses a compact voice for Siri. iOS will automatically download and install a more natural-sounding voice when you first connect to power and a Wi-Fi network.

Caller doesn't hear a ring back if the call is ringing on agent phone

Hi team,
can anybody help me? Here in Germany there are a lot of customers that don't understand why the caller doesn't hear a ring back when the call is ringing on agent phone for instance with UCCX 8. I read some discussions here for that issue but the only solution for that should be to change the MOH on CUCM. This is not a very good solution when the call in queue is set to hold he will hear the ring back tone in the queue as well :-(
Has anybody another solution for that issue???
All the discussion I've read was for IPCC version 4 or so. Is there another solution for this issue in version 8.x
In one discussion I found the following solution:
Yes, To resolve this issue,Set up a Send H225 User Info Message service parameter for Cisco CallManager service in CallManager. Perform the following steps:
In Cisco CallManager Administration, select Service > Service Parameter.
Select the correct server from the drop-down list.
Set the service to Cisco CallManager.
In the Send H225 User Info Message field, under the Cluster Wide Parameters (Device - H323) section, select H225 Info for Ring Back.
Reset the H.323 voice gateway.
After completing this procedure, the caller hears ring back when the agent phone is ringing.
Does it realy work?
Need you help!
Thanks in advance.
Tobias

Hi Tobais
you right one of the solutions is to change the MOH to the ring back one
however there are two types of MOH that you need to select
use MOH is the music to be played while the call on hold/ in queue
use Network MOH which is the oneyou need to change to the ring back MOH source file so when the call get transferred to an agent ring back MOH will be played
these options under the CTI ports in UCCX
also you can search the forum here and there are many discussions about this topic

When you said you have no fax machines on your line, that does include computers directly connected to the phone line?
The reason that I ask is a computer with a dial-up modem (a non broadband modem) that can connect to your phone line, can have software that makes the computer act as a fax machine.
