iPhone 4S - Outgoing call no audio

Picked up a Verizon iPhone 4S - 32GB and on about 1 in 10 calls I get no outbound audio when dialing. Call shows the timer counting as if the call is progressing but absolutely no ring back and cannot hear the party on the other end when they answer.


Anyone else having this issue? I've found a few forums online stating people have had luck hitting the speaker button on and off to get it working again but it hasn't failed in the past 20 minutes for me to test that theory..


Thanks...

I updated and it is definitely clearer than it was (no hollow echo) but I still seem to have the "Can you hear me? How about now?" issue. Have to drop it away from my ear, then put it back and it seems to be ok then. Thing is, you don't know whether the other person can hear you or not. So you have to ask. Bummer...


The ability to do wireless software upgrades is really nice!

Hi Antonio, U update to IOS 5.1 thru wifi without using itunes right? Did u on the airplane mode but on back the wifi while updating it so it would not be interrupted by calls, sms & etc? It's does not affect all our existing data after updating right? So do u backup your data thru icloud or itunes before updating it & restore it back? Is it a new built-in apps "photo booth" after updating?


Did anybody know that if we buy a new iphone 4S now, is it pre-installed with IOS 5.1?


Thanks!!

Solution is quite simple but you need to know.

Connect your iPhone to iTunes and keep holding home and power button until iTunes gives message it found an iPhone in repair mode.than select restore your phone (after making back-up off course)

Your iPhone will normally be reset to 5.0.1

After that you do the software update via the phone itself and there you go you'll have the official iOS 5.1.
