Often my iPhone 4S doesn't always ring

Anonymous

Sometimes my phone doesn't ring when someone calls, goes straight to voicemail even when I have it in my hand. It's not on silent. Why?

It can and does happen from time to time.
I guess it's all down to how busy the network is at the time but nothing you can do to influence it.

If the voicemail tip does not work try resetting your iPhone via holding the sleep/wake button and home button together, until the apple logo appears and then let go.

 

and or Settings , General , Reset , Reset Network Settings.

 

Remove and clean the sim card.

You might also want to check that you have the latest updates installed - One was release today apparently which is supposed to fix some bugs - Not specifically your bug, but you never know........?

Could be a hardware issue, my wife had a 4s that sometimes didn't ring. Turned out to be the ringer unit at fault, she got it secondhand at a CEX store and got the phone swapped successfully.
