THANK YOU! I feel so smart being able to handle these silly phone problems without running to the store or to a 14-year-old!

Wow--this is a lot of suggestions. Thanks! Everything on my 4 year-old phone was working, but suddenly it felt hot, and then it lost capability to make/receive phone calls & voicemail. I tried your steps, except for the factory reset. (Don't want to lose photos or contacts info, or at least till I learn how to save & transfer them) I'm glad system reset worked for several folks--but it didn't for me. Tomorrow I'll get brave enough to take the case off and access the SIMS card. Hopefully the sudden heat didn't mean something integral to the phone didn't short out! I'm ignorant and forget the sequence of steps, but I'm gradually learning.

Thanks SO much for this video! Although it didn't fix my particular problem (because the problem was on my carriers end), it made me feel empowered to try to tackle the issue and helped me get to know my phone better in case future problems arise. Although my son is fine with it, I feel bad having to ask him for help all the time and would like to be able to at least try to fix problems on my own.

I had to correct the Access Point Name, Network Operators and turn on International Data Roaming, Allow 2G Service and finally made my phone work. It's been a long day...

My mom had problems with her Phone. Took out the SIM card and cleaned it, put it back in nice and tight. Worked again! T Mobile could not help her and wanted my Mom to buy a new expensive Phone.
