Panic.plist Apple charging for replacement. iPhone 4S

My third attempt to fix my iPhone 4s. I've gone through two phones calls, three associates, and one Tech. support supervisor. The only thing said to me was "I cant do anything". I've explained my problem, as thorough as possible but the only option was to purchase a replacment for $200. I've restored my phone multiple times with zero effect, each with a clean restoration of iOS 6.1.3. If there is a solution to this problem I will greatly appreciate it.  (Latest panic.plist report) Incident Identifier: 8156D0E9-A0F8-4AC2-8762-C6B2C0937645CrashReporter Key:   1d8179e7464801cf156363078309b8f456a20ed2Hardware Model:      iPhone4,1Date/Time:       2013-04-30 08:47:57.042 -0700OS Version:      iOS 6.1.3 (10B329) panic(cpu 1 caller 0x9d1a6397): "i2c1::_checkBusStatus XIP is still set (SDA is probably stuck low); last read status 02010100 xfer 00000000 fifo 00000000 "Debugger message: panicOS version: Not set yetKernel version: Darwin Kernel Version 13.0.0: Wed Feb 13 21:37:19 PST 2013; root:xnu-2107.7.55.2.2~1/RELEASE_ARM_S5L8940XiBoot version: iBoot-1537.9.55secure boot?: YESPaniclog version: 1Kernel slide:     0x000000001ca00000Kernel text base: 0x9ca01000Epoch Time:        sec       usec  Boot    : 0x00000000 0x00000000  Sleep   : 0x00000000 0x00000000  Wake    : 0x00000000 0x00000000  Calendar: 0x00000006 0x000266b5 Task 0x80058c20: 3587 pages, 97 threads: pid 0: kernel_task          thread 0x80071b00                    kernel backtrace: 8f4e3d68                     lr: 0x9ca884d1  fp: 0x8f4e3d98                     lr: 0x9ca88d6d  fp: 0x8f4e3dc4                     lr: 0x9ca17ca7  fp: 0x8f4e3ddc                     lr: 0x9d1a6397  fp: 0x8f4e3e1c                     lr: 0x9d1a60a3  fp: 0x8f4e3e40                     lr: 0x9d1a5eb9  fp: 0x8f4e3e60                     lr: 0x9cdc4255  fp: 0x8f4e3e70                     lr: 0x9cdc4167  fp: 0x8f4e3e84                     lr: 0x9cc5792f  fp: 0x8f4e3eac                     lr: 0x9cdc48e5  fp: 0x8f4e3ee4                     lr: 0x9d6be3b5  fp: 0x8f4e3ef8                     lr: 0x9d6bed97  fp: 0x8f4e3f10                     lr: 0x9cc47e37  fp: 0x8f4e3f60                     lr: 0x9cc48a79  fp: 0x8f4e3f88                     lr: 0x9cc4884b  fp: 0x8f4e3fa8                     lr: 0x9ca8655c  fp: 0x00000000

looking for help with handsfrree link and Iphone 5 running OS6

I have a new I phone 5 running latest version of OS6. Since I purchased the phone. I have not been able to recieve calls through my bluetooth on my Handsfree link in my 2012 Acura TSX. I was having intermittent problems with the Iphone 4. I can link the phone ok, but when I get a call, I can hear the caller fine, but apparently all they hear is noise like a vacuum cleaner. I thought it was my system, but Acura says it is the Phone and that Apple is aware of the problem. Does anyone know if Apple is going to fix this? Basically you can't use the phone in the car!

4gs crashes iPhone 4S

My iPhone 4S keeps crashing. Writing texts, checking emails, using web browser, and sometimes when making phone calls I have intermittent ability to hear the caller.The phone sometimes gets very hot and some days the battery drains very very quickly even without much use. I've tried restore; deleting facebook; turning off most notifications and location services.  What should I do?

No audio when receiving calls on iPhone 5

I JUST got a new iPhone 5 on Wednesday, and all appeared to be fine. But today (Thursday!) I'm having a problem receiving phone calls.Specifically, when I'm receiving a call:I can only hear the caller's voice;they can't hear my voice; and I can't hear my own voice in the receiver.I tried calling my iPhone from a land-line. The sound on the land line is muffled rustling---like someone is rubbing their hand across the phone mic. And when I speak into the land-line, I can hear my voice on the iPhone without any noise or static. To add further confusion, I can hear both myself and the other person when I place calls. Changing to an earpiece or to speakerphone successfully averts the incoming call problem, but this isn't really a preferable solution for a brand new phone. Anyone know how to get the microphone to work so that people can hear me when I'm placing AND receiving calls? Many thanks! 

can I access an application whilst on call without hanging up iPhone 3G

I have an App called "Calendars" by Readdle. I wish to be able to access this App (and any others if need be) whilst on a phone call without hanging up on the caller. I wish to be able to have the caller on speaker whilst accessing my calendar. Is it possible to navigate and access apps whilst and not terminate a call?

No call reception with LTE on Deutsche Telekom network iPhone 5

Running iPhone 5 in Germany with Deutsche Telekom on the LTE network means no call reception after the first call. Starting with the second call the caller will be diverted directly to the mail box, which is very annoying. This seems to happen whenever one stays within an LTE network cell. Or in other words, switching the LTE tower or turning off LTE for a second will allow another caller to get through. According to Deutsche Telekom the iPhone 5 has a firmware issue which will have to be fixed by Apple. In order to receive a call the iPhone has to switch to 3G. When the call ends, the phone will automatically switch back to the LTE network. According to the technician there seems to be a problem with the ID lease in the process which can't be fixed by Deutsche Telekom. The only fix for the user seems to be switching of LTE altogether or making sure to turn it off/on after each call while staying within one LTE cell tower. This is a reproducable problem that I have verified to exist with three iPhone 5 so far. Anybody else with this issue?

Call Waiting iPhone

When I am on a call, it will beep to notify me of an incoming call.  It does not display the caller and does not allow me to click over.  It also does not register that I have a missed call.

how i fix call entries from same caller not combining ios 6 recent calls log iPhone

These 4 calls are from the same caller , same #/device. Before iOS6, they would always merge & the count in parenthesis would increase; so, instead of 4 listings of 9 total calls, I should have 1 listing with (9) after it.

caller ID stopped working on Sprint iPhone 5.

I have had the iPhone 5 since day one. No problems with the phone at all until the last couple of days. The caller ID function worked great, until recently. Now, I have searched through the Forums, and other sources online, to no avail. When a call comes in, no matter if it is in my contacts or not, all I get on the screen is "Unknown". I have done a hard reset, I even wiped the phone and restored from iCloud. No difference. I called AppleCare, they could not answer the problem either. If anyone knows a solution, I would love to hear it. Thanks.

I use Blueant with my new IPhone 5. I can make outgoing calls but when I get an incoming call bluetooth connects me to my call but I cannot hear call and they can not hear me. suggestions

I use a Blueant brand bluetooth with my IPhone5.  For outgoing calls, it works fine.  But, for incoming calls, the bluetooth will give me the options to answer or ignore, tells me I am connected, yet I cannot hear the caller and they cannot hear me.  Any ideas?  The bluetooth worked fine with my previous IPhone.  Apple replaced the phone, but the problem still exists.  Same problem when I pair it with my wife's IPhone5.

Why won t my iPhone let me switch callers

I recently updated my software, and since have been encountering a problem. I searched around on the internet and this forum, but haven't seen anyone else report this issue. Hoping someone out there can help  Prior to the update:When I was on a call and someone else called me, it would display their name and few options such as Hold Call and Answer, Ignore, End Call and Answer, etc. (I don't recall the exact wording). My phone log would still log the incoming call, regardless of answering it or not. After the update:When I am on a call and someone else calls me, the new caller name is not displayed, and the options on the current call stay almost the same. The only change is the "Join Calls" feature isn't greyed out anymore. Since I can't click over, I miss the phone call. My call log doesn't register the call, so there is no way of knowing who I missed a call from unless they leave a voicemail. Any ideas on why this isn't working?

Lost Call Waiting with IOS 6 Upgrade iPhone

A backup and restore through iTunes resolved the issue. Luckily this user was syncronizing everything (Music, Photos, Apps, everything) through iTunes so it was not a difficult backup and restore, otherwise I would be careful if you manually manage these items. The process took over an hour to complete, since it had to synchronize, download the iOS software, reset factory settings, restore from backup and synchronize again. The ring tone setting didn't restore, but it seemed everything else did, but the user hasn't spent a lot of time on it at this point.  Call Waiting/caller ID was critical in this case it was worth the risk.

iPhone 4 problems and Apple Poor Customer Service

Recently, we've gone through a few iPhone 4s and I want to relay this problem to see if anyone else has run into the same issue. Back in May, our 2-year old threw down my wife's iPhone 4 and it shattered the screen. We took the phone to the Permiter Mall (Atlanta) Apple Store and gladly paid the $150 to replace it, since it was our fault. But after replacing it, we began a string of bad phones, and Apple has left us holding the bag. Needless to say, we bought an Otterbox Defender Series iPhone 4 case and made sure that my 2-year old didn't get a hold of our replacement iPhone.  Within a couple weeks of buying the replacement iPhone 4, my wife's phone encountered the "Blue Screen of Death." For those of you who haven't enountered that scnario, the Blue Screen of Death means curtains for a device (usually a Windows-based PC).  So we took the replacement iPhone 4 back to Permiter Apple Store for replacement. This was back in June.  Apple replaced the phone.  But now, here in October, only 4 months later, my wife's second replacement iPhone will no longer make or accept calls. A clarification: she can make a call and she can click to receive a call, but she can't hear the caller and the other party can't hear her.  We've done all steps to try to fix this, including restoring the phone, but all to no avail. So yesterday, October 6th, I took the iPhone back to Permiter Apple store in Atlanta. And with all the trouble we've gone through, I was perplexed when the Apple "Genius" told me that we were out of warranty, but that he would be happy to replace my wife's iPhone 4 for another $150.  So I have 2 questions: To the folks at Apple. Does this seem like good customer service? First of all, we had to replace way too many defective iPhones. And second, I can't believe Apple doesn't do a better job of standing behind it's product.To other iPhone 4 users: has anyone else encountered the issue of not being able to hear or talk to the other party?  It's very strange: when we place a call, the "speaker phone" button engages by itself, the call "connects" (the call timer starts), but we can't hear the other party and they can't hear us.  I've also tried to press the mute button to see if that's the issue, but it isn't. Many thanks to all and to Apple--shame on you for giving GM like service instead of Southwestern type service.

iPhone 4 microphone really quiet in Facetime and Loudspeaker

I had just recently replaced a proximity sensor in my phone, and I have been having some problems. Could you possible know why? Here's the trouble I am having: My phone screen doesn't lock when I am in calls so I can constantly pressing the mute button by accident. When I am in call normally, the ear speaker is very very quiet and I can barely hear the caller at all. But it seems they can hear me fine, and my microphone is working perfectly.When I am in call on loud speaker, I can hear the caller nice and loudly, perfectly fine. But it seems the microphone isn't as sensitive and the caller can barely hear me at all and I am really quiet. Like in the second problem but reversed. I am suspicious that the microphone problem is a software problem as it seems to work fine in loudspeaker. As for the locking and earpiece speaker I reckon a hardware problem. The proximity cable was brand new bought off Ebay for £3.79. Could it be the sensor that's causing the trouble and I may need a new one?  Please reply asap, thankyou!

Missing outgoing audio on calls iPhone

I hope I'm not posting a duplicate issue, but i haven't seen this problem posted --- My iPhone 3G has stopped working for outgoing audio on phone calls or voice recording with the microphone on the headset -- I have the original headset/mic that came with it as well as the 79.00 apple in ear headset -- everything works fine until a call comes in -- I answer - can hear the caller perfectly, but they cannot hear me -- First I thought it was the headset--but it does this with everyone I try and they all work on other iPhones --- the phone is no longer under apple care and the closest apple store is over 100 miles away --- there is a guy in town that replaces broken screens -- he said it's the mother board and can't be repaired -- the phone works fine if I unplug the headset -- my audio gets through --- I haven't tried it with blue tooth -- I am running the latest version of the OS -- and this didn't coincide with an update -- the phone has not been dropped or damaged and has not been exposed to water --- Has anyone seen this before? any Ideas --- Not quite ready to go the the 4 yet -- Thanks

Address Book entries on iPhone won t dial

iPhone 4 freezing when answering and ending calls.

I have been experiencing this starting today. It has worked fine for the past two weeks. When I type in a number and hit call, the phone never rings, but apparently people are getting my calls. When I press end, the phone freezes and my ownly way out is a hard reset. It freezes for any and every caller or call I make. When sliding to answer, or pressing the answer button it freezes at their own screens and again, a hard reset is in order. I took my phone to AT&T and they checked my account and looked at the phone and everything was in perfect working order. I have restored the phone three different times now, from a backup, and to factory. All apps are working, texting is working fine. I am really stumped on this one, I hope someone can help me!

Imessage between mac and iPhone

Hi I have read through several posts so far but am still having trouble with the whole start an imessage on my iphone and pick it up on my mac later.  I tried sending a message from my mac to a friend and that sent message appeared on my iPhone, however any messages I make on my iPhone do not appear on my mac.   On my mac I have my Apple ID as the active account (my email address) On my iPhone Settings>Messages>Receive at 2 addresses There is my phone number listed and my email address.  My Apple ID is the same as my macs and caller ID I have ticked my email address not my phone number. I found somewhere it was suggested turning off the account on the mac repeating this on the iphone and performing a soft reset and then turning iMessage back on on both devices but this has not worked. I have not had any messages whatsoever appear on my mac since installing mountain lion.  Am i just missing something simple?

Cannot make conference calls on iPhone 4S

When connected to one person, I hit the "+" button, select a contact, and then the iphone indicates it is calling the 2nd person but the 1st person remains audible on the call.  After a few seconds, the 2nd call appears to go through because the "merge" button appears as well as the name of the 2nd person I called.  However, when I tap the "merge" button, the 2nd caller is not there.  When I hang up with the 1st person and call the 2nd person, they tell me they didn't receive the 1st call to them. Is this a phone problem or user problem? Thanks,

Why can t I record calls with iPhone

LeLoup wrote:Every other mobile can!That statement is completely false. The laws regarding recording calls vary widely from country to country, and State to State. Including that functionality would require massive overhead to manage its use depending on the locations of both the caller and the recipeint of the call. Logically, it stands that it's just not worth the headaches.

Verizon iPhone 4S iMessage activation without apple ID

I would like iMessage to work on my iPhone 4S iOS 5.1.1. I don't want to enter an apple ID for various reasons. That's not a problem, according to apple <http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268> : "iPhone automatically registers your phone number for use with FaceTime and iMessage during activation." Except that it is a problem aparenly. iMessage won't activate. It says that it's "Waiting for activation". I've tried following the troubleshooting guide: <http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268> but nothing seems to help. I've Erased All Content and Settings, I've tried resetting, hard resetting, etc. No luck. Does anyone have a Verizon iPhone 4S with iMessage enabled with their phone number as the caller ID?

Automatic caller ID like Android phone iPhone 3G

I have the iPone 4S, and my husband has the Android Blaze. We all know that iPones are much better, but I am a little jealous of his autmatic caller ID. When someone calls him that he doesn't have saved in his phonebook, it still pulls up the name and where the phone number is from. Can our iPhones do that?! If so, how!!?? Thank you!

Problems with imessage iPhone

I have been having problems with imessage over the last couple of days. I finally after months of having my phone fixed the imessage caller ID to show my number instead of my email. I've noticed that since then I've had issues with it. My boyfriend has an iphone 4 running on iOS5 and I have a iphone 4s running on iOS5. Before I changed that his messages was sending fine, they had a delay on them from time to time. But now some of his messages aren't even sending to me and it's even showing above his message that it sent as a text message instead of an imessage. My question is, is it my phone or his phone? thanks

iMessage uses wrong caller ID even though right one selected iPhone

Right after I had my iPhone 4s replaced under warranty, any iMessages I sent would have my apple ID email address attached as the sender, rather than my phone number.  I have gone to Settings > Recieve At > caller ID and selected my phone number (and restarted the phone), and yet it still sends iMessages as my email address. This is a problem because hardly anyone has my email address in their iPhone contact for me, so they can't tell who the message is coming from.  And no, asking everyone to add my email address is not an acceptable solution. iMessage used to work great, up until my hardware swap... anyone have any ideas?
