Mobile Phone Connectivity Issues

By LazyMom ·
My mobile phone was swithced on, and yet when my brother sitting in the same room with me tried to call it, we got the message that the number is switched off!
Also, when i tried making a call with my phone, it would try to dial the number for a few seconds before giving a beep beep sound and disconnecting. In fact it felt like it gave up connecting straight away.

I swithced off my mobile and started it again and the issue was gone. However, does anyone know the cause of this?

Sometimes

Things like that (most likely in the operating system) just happen.

If the problem keeps happening sporadically, then you could try your SIM in another phone, or another SIM in your phone.

Of interstellar interference is above zero, so I see no reason why not.

Unfortunately, others -- many, many others -- have this and the like sewn up in their worldview. There is no room for the genuine untoward.

I do my part.

It is strange that some wouldn't consider it.

Said Aliens were most likely arseholes, so they may start with the intermittent faulting of select SIMs.

the impingement of the gluteus maximus (or anything else for that matter).

Can you say <i>airplane mode</i>?

Well....

Airplane Mode is frequently turned on accidentally on many phones simply by holding down one of the buttons (usually the on or off button). It happens a lot, and freaks out people who never use this feature.

But cosmic rays (high-energy particles of extra-terrestrial origin) can and do cause faults in sensitive electronics.
