4s problems!!

It's been about the same as with my iPhone 4, what type of case do you have on your iPhone 4s?

I have same situation with Verizon iphone 4s. Signal drops and come back randomly. I can not make a proper phone call with this situation. Someone mention that it could be a software bug to certain users. I swapped mine once few days ago but nothing changes. I am really frustrated. Apple should do something...

Reception is terrible. Drop calls like never before. I should have stuck with my 3G! Siri is the coolest.... WHEN IT WORKS!!!!

If you're thinking of a 4s get used to these notifications: "Searching... " And "Cannot connect to the network".

Joke is on me..what a waste.

I went to Verizon to appeal my problem and all they said was they can not trouble shoot it.

They have no right to do so, only apple can do it.

And apple want me to go to Verizon to solve the problem?

I am having dropped calls several times every day. I am with Sprint and have iPhone 4S 64GB

Have you guys talk to your Carrier or Apple about this problem??

I have correlated my dropped calls (and lost data connection) to GPS activity. If I'm on a call and I fire up an app that uses GPS (Map, Facebook, Camera, Track Logger, etc), the call will be dropped within one minute. The cellular network connection is lost (Searching...). No data, no calling. Then after a varying amount of time (10sec to 45sec), the phone reconnects to the cellular network, and it's then possible to reinitiate a call or get data.

If I am connected to a wifi network, I continue to be able to get data from that connection. Turning wifi off doesn't change the behavior - still drops calls.

I have tried this while in different parts of town.

I'd be interested in hearing if others see this same behavior - I searched for it, but haven't had any hits.

I have dropped calls even with Wi-Fi turned on.

Thanks for the reply kjaved..

Does your phone drop calls even when not using the GPS in any way (disable Location Services to test)?

I have same problem with IPhoone 4s on ATT network. Same location I been using blackberry it worked all these days. IPhone 4s reception is flacky today i could not access the network it heep showing no service where blackberry worked. Some days it works randamly but even i have 3 to 4 singal bars i could not orginate calls.

Just to amplify, if I am not using GPS, my AT&T connection on iPhone 4S is very good - no dropped calls. If I turn on something that uses GPS, that's when problems start.

I am suspiscious that the cellular radio is getting reset periodically by having GPS turned on, causing to to have to resync. I can't tell whether it's a software problem or a hardware issue.

As a general rule, my iPhone 4S has been very solid - staying connected very well.

Im having a lot of software problems from glitching to things still working even though I have turned them off.......Like notifacations !! Siris doesnt work the greatest I have to ask the same question sometimes like 4 or 5 times before it gets it but I understand this is a Beta version. I dont like some of the upgrades like not having a switch to turn your notifications on and off now you have to manuel move them. Not haveing the tap to pull up your zoom function on the camera. Have to pinch to zoom makes the task harder, This phone also seems to get a lot hotter when I use it compared to my 3s and I notice the battery life is odd for if I dont use it the battery level hardly drops but as soon as I use an app or something the battery drops extremely fast and if you have it set up with Push notification and locations it doesnt even last half of a day with normal use...........So far my 3s was a far better phone in the sense of its durability !!

All operators have the same problem with dropped calls in SWEDEN too.

Every time im calling, this ****** thing wont work, 1 of 10 maybe.

Seems as the gsm signal is stronger and 3G shuts down.

What a piece of crap. A mobile phone that you cant phone.
