I think it's probably nothing but I'm a little bit concerned so I thought I'd ask. I already talked to my carrier but they were maddeningly unhelpful.
I think the may be purely coincidence but.
I have the iphone 4s. Earlier this evening I received a call from the (646) area code (my area code as well). It was an automated message in spanish (I got the phone to my ear a little late so it may have started in english. The moment the phone disconnected my screen went black and staticy. I could still see the bar at the top but otherwise the screen went black and staticy. When I restarted the phone it seemed to work normally.
I'm assuming this was just a glitch, but the timing seemed a little suspicious so I thought I'd ask. Can you get a virus from a phone call?
I'm tempted to restore the phone just to be safe but I'd have to back up my pictures first and if it is a virus I'd be worried to plug into my new mac. Ideas?
