iPhone 5 CALL FAILURE on Vodafone Mumbai

Hello,

As promised I have received my new replaced iPhone5 today. I have setup again this as new iPhone, will check how it works and update the same here.

Replacement for the iPhone 5 received! And its working fine so far.

1. I didn't set it up as a new phone instead I restored it from the backup.

2. I didn't download the carrier update (from Vodafone) in iTunes/phone.

3. I didn't upgrade the iOS to 6.0.2. It is still 6.0.1.

4. I simply registered the phone with my apple ID.

5. It took 6 working days to replace the phone. As I deposited it on Thur, 10 Jan and received it on Thrus 17 Jan.

Hi,

I had got the replacement around a week back (Restored it with 6.0.2 and set as a new phone) and now its again starting to drop calls.Its less frequent than the previous phone but the problem still persists.Called up the customer care again and they said i have to call the Apple telephone support on 18004250744.I called them and they are asking me to check the phone with SIM from another supported network (Airtel or Aircel).I checked with another SIM and problem is still there. Replacement again??

Hey just try switching on your caller id in settings>phone>caller id,helped me had the same problem from a month or so and now its solved,try your luck.

Did anyone find a solution to the problem? It seems that getting a new phone isnt solving the issue either.

Yeah at first it was there with me too so i just went there and like checked it out,then my calls were alright,again the same problem occurred and i again went there and i had to turn caller id on again,and my iPhone works now!

Just try it ,it was just an option. Helped me however your case could be different.

It's abt to be a month since the last post! Has any one been able to resolve the prob cz I'm facing the same prob wit Vodafone since the 1 st day! Jus wanted to ask since the new update is available should I update ota over connect to iTunes and restore it! Any help wud b appreciated thanks

I got my iPhone replaced on 18th Jan. Since then its working fine. And I didn't download the carrier update so far (for Vodafone Mumbai). I suppose its a problem with the hardware not with software. Else they'd not have replaced it but updated. And majority of the people resolved this problem after replacing the phone only, I suppose so.

Hi Guys Riaan here in south africa

I have the very same problem and yes it is a bug but no one can tell me if it is a software or hardware bug. I have IPhone 5 32GB.

ok so tryu the following

reboot your phone

then try and call ( you will get call failed)

then go to settings

then click on phone

then click on show my caller ID

It will then update from network

now try and call again you will see you can call

I have been to the apple store and to my service provider no one can answer me on this. I have now requested a new phone as my phone is not yet a month old.

Guys just try these steps bcos it solved my problem-

1. Take your sim or nano sim whatever out

2. Reboot your phone after putting your sim again

4. Go to settings >phone>caller id

5. Yes i know its greyed out but be sure to check it if its on and then try making a call.

I too was having the same problem since one month but luckily i did it and my problem was solved

Just try your luck and if doesnt work better sue apple!

Yes man Thats the perfect way. Thanx it worked fine with me. Wish luck to other guys.

Just do what i and riaan said. I hope u will solve ur problem.

Yea i know its greyed out but u must be sure its on.

Just follow the steps after rebooting your phone and ejecting and replacing the sim once.

heheheh Lavendra

This is a work around although it helps this does not fix the problem. I have spoken to the Iphone repair shop and hey recomend you speak to the people you purchased the phone from and have your phone swapped out.
