Phone randomly not receiving phone calls

I'm experiencing the issue as well. No ring, just a straight voicemail notification.

Also, has anyone experienced their data connection freezing up? Every once in awhile, my data won't load anything and the signal indicator always shows one circle and LTE. A quick switch to airplane mode and back fixes the problem. Full bars and working data again. Strange.

Verizon iPhone 5

This happened to me a few days ago. I was out with my family (battery was around 50-60%) and I checked in with Foursquare. I put my phone back in my pocket, took it out 30-40 minutes later, I was down to 12% with the little circle indicating I didn't have service.

Meh, it's beta.
 
Experienced the exact same thing. People at work were calling me and I was out for something during the day. They called me like 5 times and my phone never rang. That was actually the only thing that made me consider downgrading back to iOS 6 as the daily driver form Beta 3. I'm still keeping at it tho.

When I just toggled Airplane mode on and off the problem never re-occured.

Voicemail showed up with no call ever ringing through and no call even listed as missed in Recent Calls.

A couple of calls did ring through and then no ring and straight to voicemail when I tried to call my phone.

This has happened to me on my AT&T iPhone 4S but I am still running 6.1.3.

A few days ago at least 2 times I had my iPhone in my hands and suddenly I got voicemail and the phone never rang. I confirmed did not have do not disturb on. Today it is working ok.
 
I had the same problem with my 4S and im on verizon! i was trying to find where to report it to apple but didn't. I see someone did! Luckily I had youmail that tells me when i missed a call. It was weird though because sometimes my phone would just ring and ring and not even go to vmail. I couldnt risk missing my calls with the line of work i do so I took it off and downgraded back to ios 6!
 
Yep, this happened to me today, along with the random DFU mode issue earlier in the day. That, mixed with my Notification Center not displaying notifications most of the time, caused me to revert back to beta 2 after work. Much more stable now.
 
i just hopped in on the beta the whole beta game. Is beta 2 way more stable than 3? i had to take 3 off totally on my phone it was horrible! as you all see from the post above!
 
I had to go back to iOS6 because of this (and man, the old os looks hideous in comparison), I'll be back for Beta 4.
 
Things were better yesterday where I don't think there were any undelivered calls (although I guess I can't be completely sure of that). Today already had a couple just in the morning (at different times).
 
So this is a really big problem for me as I need my phone for work (supervisor can't call me) and I'm going out of town next week. This issue is really sporadic, in terms of who can call and who can't.

I made an icloud backup of my phone and I want to go back to iOS 6. I know the back up made by my computer won't be compatible, so my question is, will the iCloud back-up work? I didn't want to try to go back to iOS 6 without consulting here first.

You could potentially instead go back to just iOS 7 beta 2 (if not even beta 1) where this didn't appear to be an issue.

Thanks, but I'm not really interested in that because those both were much more buggy. I mean, this is a HUGE bug, but overall 3 is much smoother than the previous two. Would the iCloud back up be compatible with iOS 6?
 
I see that someone mentioned the DND option, when I went in it was set to receive calls from favorites, I changed that to everyone, now my calls seem to be coming through, anyone else have that expereince?

You shouldn't be running beta software if the phone is that important.


And all call issues for me were resolved by resetting my network settings.

Really? and it hasn't happened again? Which phone and provider?

Haven't really read through the thread, but based on its title it seems like it might have some relevant information: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1602107/

I checked it out and someone is suggesting that you can use the iOS 7 iCloud back-up to restore info for iOS 6 if you are a developer or have the UDID registered through one of those shady sites.

What is with all the snarky comments around here? I've tried resetting the network settings and that did not work. I ended up going back to beta 2 for the time being. I'll just continue with that until beta 4 comes out.
 
My Verizon iPhone 5 on beta 3 has been doing this. No notification of a fall unless a voicemail is left. I reset my network settings a few hours ago and calls have been coming through since then.

Keep us updated!! I'm back to iOS 6 because of this and it sucks! Lol
 
Resetting network settings (Verizon 4S) and changing DND to everyone did not resolve this issue for me. Although beta 2 isn't as snappy and the camera crashes more often it seems to be working just fine. I can live with these minor nuisances compared to missing important phone calls. Im just hoping enough light is shed so that it can be fixed for beta 4
 
yep, I'm having the same issue with my 4S, beta 3 on Rogers. Rolled back to OS 6.1.3 since I can't be missing work calls... I'll play with os7 on my touch for now.
