My android phone and now my work IOS phone are not ringing when people call. I would have thought it was due to the latest android update but it happened today with my work phone as well. It happens both at home (Ga) and in Virginia as well. Anyone else having the same issue with Verizon? Hedley Lamarr: Wait, wait, wait. I'm unarmed. Bart: Alright, we'll settle this like men, with our fists. Hedley Lamarr: Sorry, I just remembered . . . I am armed. | ||

Yes, odd changes spontaneously shut off 'ring's on multiple occasions....S9+ now 11 months old.

I was having that same issue with my Galaxy S5. Upgraded to an S10 and have not had that issue anymore. | |||

I have noticed the same thing on my Iphone. I though it was just me. I have AT&T. | |||

My wife’s phone has done this from time to time. Both for calls and texts. We typically find a setting of some sort that magically has changed without our input. Typically have to go to multiple screens to change it back. Don’t believe it could be done accidentally. Can’t live with them or without them. | |||

Happened to me once on Google Fi with a Pixel. Might have just been doing something else and swiped inadvertently though. | |||

| Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do. |
Not on phone calls but often text messages don't give an audio alert. Been goning on for a year or more. On 2 different phones. Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking. | |||

Question to everyone... When was the last time to restarted your phone? Issues like this are almost always fixed with a restart. I restart mine at least once a week. Most of the different issues I hear that people have, I have never encountered.

I always silence my iPhone (with the side button) when going into a Doctor's office. Typically I'll spend a couple of days afterward wondering why my phone isn't ringing.  When in doubt, mumble | |||

I have found the DND (do not disturb) feature on my Android phone turning itself on. I've never in my life enabled it - I am more than capable of turning on/off the phone and/or changing the ring volume when I need to. At any event, I suggest the OP check settings to see if there is something going on with "DND" settings, whether it's maybe been enabled on a schedule, or maybe getting turned on inadvertantly by a set of actions that the OS arbitrarily decided meant you didn't want to be disturbed. | |||

If it was every call, I'd understand but it's not every call. But no, it's not enabled. Hedley Lamarr: Wait, wait, wait. I'm unarmed. Bart: Alright, we'll settle this like men, with our fists. Hedley Lamarr: Sorry, I just remembered . . . I am armed. | |||

Yes. I missed a few calls last week. Caller said it went straight to voicemail. I had the ringer on and the phone was next to me. I thought it was just me. Glad to hear I was not the only one. | |||

I've had this happen in areas of poor reception. Unfortunately within the last two years, Verizon's coverage hasn't been as good as it has been in the past in the same places we travel. | |||

When I bought my phone the salesman said I should shut it off once a week. | |||

The last 'mandatory update' a couple months back left a warped, twisted hulk that required several visits to the help store & about 3 weeks to iron out. Some of which is maybe 'OK' as it forces me to learn more about basic operational controls. I change settings ever few weeks to learn more about just what the features are. It has lots of features I'll ~never~ use. **************~~~~~~~~~~ "I've been on this rock too long to bother with these liars any more." ~SIGforum advisor~ "When the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, then change will come."~~sigmonkey | |||

Happens occasionally. What gets me is how telemarketers are some how doing this and going straight to VM. Which you then have to listen to the VM to find out if its an important message or not. Happens all the time with certain telemarketing companies. | |||
