Iphone 4 is not ringing when calls come in.

So I miss a lot of them. I've restored settings, reset the phone, I've deleted any custom ringers, all to no success. Any help? It's really getting annoying.

Hello all...


I'm on iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 on Australian Vodafone Pre-paid network.


Have a similar issue where I would call my iPhone from a landline, ring tone suggest that phone is ringing, but the actual iPhone device itself is not ringing.


Thought it was the network, so I got myself a new sim - same problem.


Use other (working in other iPhone) sim on the problem iPhone - same problem.


Tried calling out from the problem iPhone - same problem.


The only fix for me was to reset the iPhone by going to: Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings.


Hope that helps others...


The question is - what was the root cause of the problem? Hmmmm...

(I found solution on another discussion by 17beachside):-

This worked for my Iphone 4

Firstly make sure your mute isn't on (the top left slide should NOT show red) Then go to:-

Settings

General

Accessibility (go down under PHYSICAL & MOTOR)

Assistive touch - switch On.


Click on this assistive touch which should now appear on your screen (it's a faded square with a white circle icon button)

Now, select DEVICE and make sure the bell has a line through it (it should say Mute with a line through the bell).


PS. My iphone on the side is showing mute not on (no red), using the assistive touch ( the white button that appears on your home screen, go to DEVICE and switch the mute key to the opposite... that is on my phone showing the MUTE as on (bell with cross through it, opposite to phone), my phone now rings.


Hope this works for you like it worked for me!!
