I’m sorry it didn’t work. Sounds like it is related to iOS bugs or there was a hardware failure. I hope you can get it fixed!

Thank you, I tried to do all of this, but the problem is still here. Other users have the same problem, they went to Apple Store and they didn’t solve, not even restoring the system. Support advised to wait for future updates but this bug is really very annoying.

I've been having the same issue. When I leave the phone on a Qi charger at night, in the morning, I will have the SOS only (about 1 time a week since I update to 16.1 and didnt go away with 16.1.1). Don't know why either. I have to reboot the phone each time.

I looked and I think only one physical sim, but phone says I have access to another sim, that I guess is virtual? Even if that is the answer, e.g. a sim issue, that doesnt really help get to how we can stop this from happening.

edit: I have a 13 Pro Max

Yes!!!! It’s 17 min past 420 and you’re still NOT HIGH ENOUGH!!!! 😎

That is a significant indeed. I understand your point. Although I have a charger everywhere: at home, in my car, in my office, plus I have 2 powerbanks and an extra charger I can pick up if I go somewhere else. As long as I stay in the civilization with electricity there is very little chance to run out of battery :D

Battery decreases around 10 to 15 percent so I am turning it off as battery is life

Morpheus needs you, Casey.

My 11 Pro Max had one, the 12 Pro Max didn't. But I have extra chargers.

If you do find it, don’t try to use it without replacing the battery. They’re not meant to be frozen. You might find that the cells are destroyed and your total capacity is a fraction of what it was. Not to mention lead to other hazards.

What does "significantly" and "a lot" exactly means? My 14P has enough battery life for a whole day easily - which is more than enough. I wouldn't give up 120Hz to have a better battery life than this.

Oh no! I clicked it and now I’m in the 1995 cult classic movie “Hackers”

I took the blue and the red pill at the same time and I think that may be part of the problem

Any iPhone sold along with the iPhone 12 or later had a version sold without the brick. Includes the 11 and the SE 2020 (which was sold with a power brick before the 12s came out).

I work overnights so I sleep late anyway, but I am a heavy sleeper so anything short of blowing my phone up or a natural disaster I’ll pretty much sleep forever

Aw shit…. I knew it!

Hi friend!

If it started after updating to iOS 16, it may be related to that. I don’t know how to fix it if the problem is due to the iOS/ hardware.

I would troubleshoot to see if it is a software issue.

There are a couple of things that might be happening. What you described happened to me years ago on my iPhone 4, but that was failure of the phone’s ear speakers. I had to use speakerphone to hear voicemail because those speakers still worked. There are a whole lot of settings to try before concluding it’s a hardware issue.

Since automatic ear detection was not the problem, I’d turn that back on.

Make sure your phone is backed up.

To troubleshoot in case it’s not a hardware problem, there are a few things you can try (list compiled of what I’ve tried and what I could find):

• Do not disturb- make sure it’s off
• Make sure the volume for calls is actually up. Try increasing the volume while actually trying to listen to a voicemail or make a call. When you're on the phone or listening to songs, movies, or other media on iPhone, you can use the buttons on the side of your device to adjust the audio volume. Otherwise, the buttons control the volume for the ringer, alerts, and other sound effects. You can also use Siri to turn the volume up or down. Keep in mind volume for calls only works while you are making/listening to a call, as those settings are independent.
• Check Settings > Accessibility > Touch > Call Audio Routing and make sure that your call audio routing is on automatic.
• Try restarting your phone
• Update your phone to the latest software.
• If there’s no sound coming out of the iPhone’s ear speaker, ensure it’s set as the audio destination and not your AirPods or another Bluetooth headset you might be using regularly. To do that, tap the Audio icon while on a phone call and select iPhone. Alternatively, turn off any Bluetooth devices or disable the Bluetooth radio on your iPhone (open the Control Center and tap the Bluetooth icon).
• Do you use wired earphones or headphones with your iPhone? It’s common to have the audio stuck in Headphone Mode even after removing your headset. The Volume slider in the Control Center will display a Headphone symbol when that happens. Although it’s possible to switch to the ear speaker manually during a phone call, that can be a recurrent problem unless you get your iPhone out of Headphone Mode. To do that: Plug your headphones into your iPhone and out again. Clean out the headphone jack or Lightning connector very carefully. Force-restart your iPhone.
• To check the speakers, go to Settings > Sounds and drag the Ringer And Alerts slider to turn the volume up. You should hear the ring tone clearly. To check the microphone, use the iPhone or iPad's standard Voice Memos app. Open the Voice Memos app or ask Siri to open it and speak into the microphone.
• If your phone speaker volume remains low even after turning the volume to the highest, your phone speaker may be clogged. Try cleaning your speakers, then try your calls again to see if the problem is fixed. Update your iPhone. Something as simple as an outdated operating system or speaker driver could be why you're having trouble hearing callers on your iPhone.
• Go to Settings > Sounds (or Settings > Sounds & Haptics), and drag the Ringer and Alerts slider back and forth a few times. This can help reset the sound toggles.
• Phone Noise Cancellation is supposed to cancel background noise, but if it’s not working correctly try turning it off. Open Settings > Accessibility > Audio/Visual > Turn off Phone Noise Cancellation.
• Some software problems can be difficult to track down. Try resetting all the settings on your iPhone. This will reset everything in the iPhone Settings app back to factory defaults. You’ll have to set up your wallpaper again, reenter your Wi-Fi passwords, reconnect your Bluetooth devices, and more. Open Settings and tap General -> Transfer Or Reset iPhone -> Reset -> Reset All Settings.
• If you still don't hear any sound, or if your speaker button on the Ringer and Alerts slider is dimmed, your speaker might need service.

I work overnights

First time ever posting here and I needed help figuring out what this was, support seemed to be the only thing that fit

Did you really label this support?

Yup, and 11 and 2020 SE, Any phone that was currently sold when Apple made the decision to pull the brick, eventually got packaged with out one.

My iPhone 13 gets hot if I keep it running games in the foreground for like 30 minutes, in the Apple official silicon case. It takes its time cooling down after that.

A bit of mobile data + GPS or anything else that uses up battery quickly will cause it to heat up. What's your battery life really?

Exactly what I was referring

Yup, unsure. Mine got pushed back by a month from original ETA.

Fortunately, I manage to walk with my legs.
