I suspect you might be accidentally ending the call with your face. Might want to check out the 110 page proximity sensor thread.

  • The original 5 meters distance router in WiFi signal is full, but the beginning of the past few days more than 3 meters on the search to the WiFi signal, my own iPhone 5, iPhone 4S received signal is full, only iPad2 searching for less than the signal.

  • HT201210 I was in the middle of installing the new update using the wifi at a local restaurant when I lost the wifi signal and my iPhone shut down, and now I can't get into the phone. I only get the iTunes logo with the cable pic. What are my options now?

    Your only option is to connect your iPhone to your computer via USB (as the diagram indicates) and restore using iTunes.

  • Week WiFi signal in 3gs iphone

    I have two iphone 3gs. WiFi in both phones are working fine with a previous ADSL router (linksys b/g).
    I had to shift the home, so my wifi was disconnected for a month, During that that I was using 3g using simcard.
    I got the Landline and I had to change the ADSL router to D link ADSL 2 latest modem (b/g/n).
    After that WiFi in one of the 3gs iphone is week and often gets cut of when I move away from the ADSL modem.
    The other phone has good signal.
    I have resetted the network settings. I have rebooted the iphone several times.
    Kindly guide to solve this problem.

    Most likely when you opened the iPhone, one of the interior connectors
    got dislodged or broken. You might find a third party repair shop to assist,
    but opening your iPhone voided the warranty and Apple cannot help you.
    You may be able to purchase an iPhone under out of warranty
    replacement if there is no obvious damage to the iPhone. Otherwise, you
    now own a brick - unuseable phone.

  • Weak Wifi signal after upgrading Iphone to 4.1

    I had a perfectly working Wifi home connection on a new iPhone 4 running 4.01 and 4.02.
    After upgrading to 4.1 yesterday, the wifi has gone bad: the connection strength has dropped - at least- 10 fold. I have to stand next to the router to get connected. Before I had excellent connection at long distances.
    Nothing has changed to the router, and I still have excellent wifi connectivity with my MacBook, iPad, and another iPhone.
    Seems that the upgrade to 4.1 somehow broke the wifi connectivity.
    Help!
    S.

    I am experiencing hte same thing. Except I started with 4.1 and I am getting very weak signal compared to my buddies iPhone which is also running 4.1. Which is weird .. I guess I will call in tommorow any ideas ??

  • TS1398 My wifi signal in my iphone 4 is very poor it wasn't the same before. When ever I try to play video it stopes streaming. I hope apple has an answer for this.

    I do not experience any problem browsing Internet or using social networks via wifi but whenever I play a video from YouTube or any other source it stopes streaming after playing 10 to 15 sec video, doesn't matter how close I am from the homehub or which Internet provider I am using. Recently I am experiencing that my phone became slow after installing the new iOS 6.1.2. Application takes time to open. Sometimes application closes on there won without any command. The key l board became slower. I wish I could get the previous version of iOS which was perfect for my iPhone 4.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    - Reset all settings                  
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
      - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Why won't my 16GB iphone 5 hold more than 700 songs?

    When I tried to sync my itunes library onto my new 16GB iphone 5. It told me I was, roughly 80MB (if I remember correctly) over. I deleted a few unwanted music videos and around 20 songs. Finally it transfered most, but still not all (but that is obviously not a data problem) of my music library. About 4 music videos and 751 songs. Surely it should hold more than that? My old 8GB ipod nano, held my entire library with 1.5 GB of free space. I was then further confused when it allowed me, after fussing about not having enough data to hold my music, to sync 1000 photos. I have also have 16 apps on my phone but they are taking up very little data. I don't want all of these photos on my phone, so will be deleting a majority of them anyway but, surely, it should be able to hold more music than 750 tunes? Please, if anyone can explain this to me, or suggest anything, I would be so, so grateful. I hope I have explained myself alright. Thankyou.

    Thanks. Se this is what I don't understand
    Audio : 4.83 GB
    Video : 545 MB
    Photos : 801 MB
    Apps : 1.63 GB
    Documents & Data : 65.3 MB
    Other : 4.28 GB
    Free 1.18 GB
    A) What is 'other'? and B) Why can't I at least store some more music in the 1.18 GB that is free? That would be something, at least, but as you can see, I'm not using much data for other things. I really want to be able to store more music on here. I should be able to, shouldn't I?
    Thank you for your advice.

  • Why Is My iPhone 4 Struggling To Pick Up a Wifi Signal My Macbook Has No Problem Receiving?

    I have both an iPhone 4 and a late 2009 Macbook.  I work at an office just a few yards from the local hospital.  The hospital has a public wifi that is definitely receivable, although weak in spots.  But what I have noticed is that my iPhone 4 has a real hard time finding the signal and keeping it.  I usually only get 2 bars max, out of the three on the signal graphic on the screen of the iPhone.  It drops out often on the iPhone.  However, when I connect with my Macbook, the connection is solid and it displays that I am getting a full signal.  The signal doesn't drop on the Macbook.  My question is why is there a difference between the iPhone and Macbook in picking up a wifi signal?  Do iPhones not have as much sensitivity to pick up a weaker signal?  Is there something I can do to the iPhone to enhance its reception?

    They better huh?
    I'm sure Apple is shaking in their boots.
    No such problem with my iPhone which I connect with a number of wi-fi networks.
    If the same problem with any other wi-fi network besides your own and no change after resetting network settings and/or after restoring the iPhone as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    If the problem is with your wi-fi network only - no problem with any other wi-fi network besides your own, the problem is not with the iPhone.

  • Sudden Weak WiFi signal on 3Gs

    Over the last month or so I've experienced a big drop-off in my 3Gs's ability to latch-on to my local home WiFi signal. I've not recently upgraded, or changed settings on the phone. An example; my BT Home Hub router sits in my office and casts a strong signal throughout my timber-frame house, (and I know the signal's still fine because my 3-yr-old Macbook, which I use anywhere and everywhere, and spanking new iMac display full WiFi bars and the speed is excellent.) I normally access the web via my iPhone from my living-room, which is no more than 20 Yards from the router, and up until a month or so ago, enjoyed a full reception on the iPhone also, but now nothing. Zilch. (There is one small corner where I can sometimes pick up one bar.)
    I'm composing this message on the iMac, which displays the full WiFi signal, with my iPhone propped up next to it and displaying zero WiFi reception. We are about eight yards away from the router.
    (I realise this topic is closely linked to others already posted, but it's something that Apple should really be responding to; they obviously have people who keep an eye on forums like these to monitor feedback about their products, and connectivity issues seem to be a bit of a hot potato at the moment.)
    My hunch is that the iPhone's capability to receive a WiFi signal has somehow become compromised, being as all other devices - and Apple devices at that - work fine.
    Can somebody help.
    Thx.

    Weak WiFi reception seems to be a suddenly common problem.  We just traveled to Holland last week, and all three of our iPhones were useless, and unable to pick up wifi signals.  We got back to the states, and the problem continues.
    My iPhone must be within a few feet of a wifi router or will see no signals.  I visited an Apple reseller who told me to update my iPhone software to solve the problem.  Now I have NO signal reception unless my phone is at the router... any router.
    Today I went to the Genius Bar, where the Genius reset my phone, and told me I have a hardware problem: my wifi card in my phone is no good, and I have to replace my phone.  I thought this was suspicious at best, turned to the forums, and discovered many, many, many people have the same problem!!! 
    We can't all suddenly have the same hardware problem, but we all can have the same software problem.  This seems to be a well known bug based upon what I've read here.
    I am about to do a total RESTORE on my iPhone to see if it solves the problem.
    I agree with another's comment: Come on, Apple, fess up and fix it.

  • Poor wifi signal on ios 8.3

    Hi
    I am getting poor Wifi signal on my iPhone 6 with ios 8.3. I have to stand next to the router to get any signal
    All of my other devies (Laptops, iPad) are working fine and picking up the signal at a much further distance.
    Can you help??

    When I enter a static address it still connects to the network. But dynamic (dhcp) it sees the network, but will connect. Tried everything..

  • HT4199 Why can't my iphone 4 find the wifi network at home when my ipad 2 has a full wifi signal?

    I have an iphone 4 and an ipad2, I have never been able to fully connect to wifi network at home consistently using my iPhone, whereas my ipad2 connects all the time without any problems. My iphone does not even pick up any other local networks, just wondered if there is a setting I need to adjust or something that I can do to be able to connect to any wifi signal or if I should take my phone back to apple store? Thanks

    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    2. If that doesn't work, use this article for troubleshooting: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1398
    3. If that doesn't solve the issue, backup the device and restore it as new.
    In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    If you restore your iPhone to factory settings without a backup and still can't detect/connect to any network, you should offer the device for service.
    Good luck

  • Why is my iphone 4 wifi signal range is weak or no signal at all after having camera replacement?

  • Why is the wifi reception on my iPhone 5 so poor. I'm not talking about in my own home with my own router. I'm talking about AT

    Why is the wifi reception on my iPhone 5 so poor. I'm not talking about in my own home with my own router. I'm talking about AT&T hotspots, public hotspots, etc. I can hold my 3GS and my 5 side by side, the 3GS picks up more signals with more strength. The 5 seems to have a weaker wireless network than its predecessors. It's very frustrating because I can be 20 feet from a wireless router, and still only show 2 bars, if I don't end up losing the connection. What gives??

    I've done the resets...no real help at all.  Im Also on my 2nd iPhone 5. The first was replaced because of a faulty external speaker module. Both phones wifi reception pretty much suck. ESPECIALLY if the case is on. I'll luck out a little bit by taking the case off...but not much.
