IPhone :: With No Cellular Connection On, Still Get A Call?
Apr 22, 2012
I am travelling, and have shut off my cellular and wifi connections, but still a few calls from unknown numbers have rung. How is this possible? Am I missing something I should have shut of
I just bought a new 4s and I can't activate it using cellular connection and Wi-Fi and also I can't seem to get the iTunes connection option from my phone as well. What can I do?
Will the Messaging App work when I have wifi connection but no cellular service? I'm going too Italy and am planning on taking my iPhone 4S. My Verizon service will not be viable there, but I will have a wifi connection most nights. When I connect will I get my text messages?
I have an iPhone5S, 64gb and iOS7.1.2. When making cellular phone calls, at the end of the call I cannot terminate the call. The called party must hang up first before I am able to terminate the call. This is very aggravating on calls where there is some sort of auto-answering device. My phone can be tied up for 5 min or more. I have tried resyncing, restarting, and even rebooting my phone all to no avail.
My wife is on a school trip to the US. Meanwhile, I am at home in Canada. I am texting her, but I found it odd she never replies and vice versa. So, she discovered that her iPhone (latest iOS 5 release) keeps trying to send the message as an iMessage. It is not reverting to SMS after a given time, as it should and as I have seen it do before. I have tried it now also and my wife only receives my messages when she has a wifi connection (she does not have data roaming enabled). It seems like my iPhone too continously tries to send the message as an iMessage and it does not switch to SMS after a certain timeout time. The message that the iPhone continously tries to send as an iMessage never fails, however the status does not change until the next time my wife is in wifi coverage and the message is delivered.
Push notifications such as WhatsApp, FB and E-Mail etc all arrive 5-20 minutes late when on a cellular data connection for me. They work fine on WiFi and arrive instantly.
My Lumia 1020 had no issues before my 950. I have strong signal and it happens in multiple areas...
So my phone just lost cellular connection. No bars no nothing. When i put my sim to other phone everything works . So i want to know is there any way to test if my nexus 5 hardware is failing or is there any other bug/fix what can i do to get this work. My phone detects sim card, it detects services but says cannot connect to this network right now, try again later.
I purchased my Lapdock 100 from a Verizon store yesterday, although I have an Atrix 2 through AT&T. When I tried it for the first time at home last night everything worked great but my phone was using the wifi connection. Today at work I try it over a cellular connection and the Firefox browser does not get internet, but the phone browser and any other phone based internet apps do while connected to the lapdock screen. For example I can maximize the phone's browser on the laptop screen and access the internet, but it is not optimal visually, I would much rather have the Firefox browser and other webtop apps working.
Is there something cell provider specific that is blocking the cellular data because I bought the lapdock from Verizon but use AT&T?
allow us to download large apps via cellular data connection as everyone cannot afford WiFi or internet connection on pcAs windows phone 8is also not coming for current devices.... Please do us a favor and allow us to download large apps via cellular data.
Does anyone have a weird issue of data dropping completely during the call? When I place a call the 3g icon disappears completely and nothing that requires data works until I hung up. Once I hang up the 3g service is restored pretty much instantly. Also the top of the phone where earpiece is gets very hot during the call. I called apple and they told me to come to the store and get a replacement. I just wanted to confirm if this problem is widespread as I will be getting the replacement from the same store. I guess it might be relevant - I am using a bumper case.
My girlfriend's phone (bought through vodafone rather than apple store) doesn't have this issue.
On another issue (or non-issue) I also noticed that my front camera is a lot less saturated that hers for some reason. When I place a facetime call and hold both phones together, the colors are very different . Hers is slightly over saturated and mine doesn't have any vibrancy to colors at all. Not sure what to make of it but there might be different sensors on iPhones (I remember reading somewhere that there is not enough production of 5mp sensors at any single factory)
I've long wanted to switch to the Iphone but I sometimes need to go to some locations where AT&T nor verizon nor sprint have cell signals and the only way to make a call is by tethering to the wifi connection. This is possible with my tmobile phone but havent succeeded when trying to use an iphone. Is there a way to make this work?

When I try to call the call terminates before it connects. I manage to establish connection after I have tried 2-3 times. I have checked the network; no problems there.
I have two Nokia C5-00 and both have the same problem, I make the connection with my helmet Bluetooth and everything it's OK, but when I receive a second call the cellular disconnect Bluetooth. If I use an old Nokia 3124 or 6730c everything run well.
I am using Android 5.0.2 rooted by pingpong. I have G920FD I have a problem because I can't turn on vibration when I am calling. I want to have vibration when I am calling and have connection and when I call off on the end of my call. Where is this option.?
My n97 was working perfect til i installed the latest updates, since then all i get when i try to make a call is "connection error" and a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it, I cant receive phone calls either it goes straight to voice mail...The phone was sent to a repair center where they fixed my charging problems, replaced the camera lens and never bothered with the "connection error". Ive sent several emails to Nokia but no response, the phone is almost 6 months old and is on Vodafone, Ive tied another sim card in it and still no joy...Plz help as £300 is not good value for a 6 month old phone,
I have this annoyin problem AGAIN!!! Each time I attempt to make a phone call I get a connection error message and also can't receive or send sms or receive calls but I can get on the net via wifi and wap.The phone has been back to a nokia repair center where they replaced my camera lens (which was OK) and completely ignored my reasons for need of repair...It came back with the exact same errors it went with, I read on here how to do a hard reset which for some reason worked for a day then the phone continued with the connection error. I have sent numerous emails to the so called Nokia Support Center and have yet to receive a reply after 2 months, I've also rang them and have been passed around various places and ended up on the phone with the 1st person I spoke to, none of these people could help me..
I bought the N97 from a seller on eBay and was completely sealed brand new in the box and the seller is unwilling to communicate or help. The phone is sim-locked to vodafone.. It is an original n97 not a clone or copy. I've tried updating to the latest version but ovi updated says it don't exist. Is there anyway to get a replacement handset from Nokia or anyway to force them to respond and help me, or is there anyone out there know what my problem is? Thnx for any help.
When making a call the S6 makes a connection tone and a disconnection tone at the end of the call. You could turn this off on the S5 I cannot find where to turn it off on the S6.
When I'm on a call people tend to get some sort of interference It seems like my packet data connection remains active and I'm sure that's what's causing it.Is there a way to disable the connection while on a call, I know its meant to do that but I don't seem to get notifications that the connection is being disabled.
When I place a phone call, I hear a bleep or a connect noise before the ring. I did not have that with that my S4. There has to be away to stop it with the S6
I am unable to hear sound i.e. rings, voice, etc., when I try and make a call and when someone calls me it doesn't ring on my phone just pops up voicemail.
When placing a phone call the Droid Pro seems to dial the number then as connection is being made it automatically ends the call. Then it automatically redials the number and it connects properly. This was acceptable until I tried to use the blue tooth connection in my car. How do I fix this?
Is there any way to totally disable the cellular on an iPhone 3GS? I am going to give it to my kids to use with their games and dont want them to dial 911
So I got my first ever iPhone and it's the iPhone 4. I have the 200mb plan and I plan to switch cellular data off most of the time if wifi is available to avoid overage. Thing is, with cellular data off, I can't do certain things (ex. Receive picture messages via the Messages app) unless I turn on cellular data. So as long as wifi is available, will my phone still use up cellular data even though it can get data off the wifi? Thanks. I apologize if I failed to look up any threads on a similar subject. I did a quck search but they weren't really what I was looking for.
when i turned OFF the cellular data network, i can't receive/sent message/make a calls...i do same on my iP4 before,but it doesn't have any problem like this..
My partner is in the US for the week. She has turned off Cellular Data in Settings → General → Network to avoid exorbitant data costs yet when I reply to her SMS messages my messages are sent as iMessages, which she can't now receive. She's also turned off iMessage in Settings → Messages but so far my messages still default to iMessages instead of SMS. She's having this problem with other people as well, no doubt because their iPhones keep trying to send her iMesssages.
I know that I can turn of iMessage on my phone and that lets me successfully send her SMSs but I wonder if there's something she can do at her end to make SMS the default for everyone who is trying to reply to her. I've also tried Settings → General → Reset Network Settings but it hasn't solved the problem.
