I have this very same issue - it tells me one cal is ending and another one was declined. I cannot reboot my iphoneX in the regular way (i.e. holding volume up and right side button at the same time) - it takes me to phone app, which won't quit. I can start Settings app, but I cannot scroll all the way down in the settings, so i the setting you are referring to is beyond reach. In fact, I cannot open any setting in the Settings app, it seems like it is frozen too. I can force quit and reopen the Settings app all in vain with same exact result. Please advise.

Has anyone gotten an actual fix for this issue yet? I'm using an iPhone X and I've contacted support several times. The first time I was told to reset all my settings, that didn't work. The 2nd time I was told to restore my phone, still didn't help. After a 3rd time, I was told to take it in to get looked at in store! It's obviously a known issue and I don't know why they won't patch it. The only "fix" for now is hard resetting the phone each time this happens which is every other FaceTime call 😠 such a pain for such an expensive phone smh.

I have an iPhone X with Sprint, AT&T, and T-Mobile... It is not a service provider issues... It is definitely an iPhone issue because it happens to all three devices... I have had to turn the phones off one of either two ways.


1) Settings -> General -> Scroll to bottom and click Shut Down

2) Press and quickly release the Volume Up; then

Press and quickly release the Volume Down; then Hold the Right Button (Power Button) until the Apple Logo appears...

Absolutely unacceptable! I am having the same FaceTime issue since June 2nd. They even changed my IPhone X to a new IPhone X, but the issue is still persistent. Went and got a new SIM card from AT&T thinking that’s what’s causing it, but no change. I erased my phone numerous time and set it up as new, got the new IOS 11.4.1, but no luck. Hoping for a permanent solution to the software problem from Apple soon.

WOW, isn't that absurd. On an other footnote. Somehow Facetime got also stuck on an iMac and Apple can only reset this with their IT consultant management team. WOW makes one wonder how the **** just an social media conect phone requires suddenly APPLE's own management IT department to reset?? What are they doing with your contacts and content! Now iPhone X Facetime get's stuck and you need to shut down the entire phone, yeah righ!

Same issue here... Tried everything, restore my phone, get replaced unite... So far, rebooting is the only way works and I found it supper frustrated. I suspect that it's the iPhone X problem only because my iPhone 6 plus is still good though. I agree for most of people, for a almost $1300 phone, this is definitely unacceptable!!! Not for Apple, not even for any phone! I guess that maybe the signal that Apple start to fall??? (I'm owning almost every product of Apple, and as a loyal customer, I don't deserve this!!) 😠

I’ve had the same problems plus strange characters appearing in my text typing at random times. It’s crazy & very annoying. Get a grip Apple! I’ve read that they were issuing a fix & that was back in April 2018 so far it’s obviously not fixed as of today 21/08/2018. Very unhappy iPhone user. I had another problem as well where I couldn hear People when they called but they couldn’t hear me. I looked the answer up on line & fixed that as fortunately others had left information. What’s going to happen with this phone next!??? You’d think for the price they charge that they would give you a piece of kit that worked! I will be thinking about moving to Samsung for my next phone at this rate. It’s the first time I’ve had issues but they aren’t minor & with the amount of people experiencI gotta them there is obviously a big problem with this model. 😡😡😡

It seems to happen only when both parties have updated to the latest (and not so greatest) IOS 11.4. I'm not sure why, but Apple seems to have issues with FaceTime and their IOS devises. At least they have admitted to this issue. They never admitted to the iPad 2 FaceTime ISO issue until it was magically fixed years later (after everybody upgraded their devise) with an IOS update. Here's hoping this will not take that long. EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING.

Yeah thanks for the response. Still feel like Apple is kicking the can down the road. I’m a huge Apple fan but expect more from them, especially after dropping $1400 on their top phone. Obviously I’ll wait for the update and it’s not as though my phone is completely debilitated, it’s just I feel I’m seeing more issues like this and a lacking sense of urgency in the post Jobs era.
