OtterBox interfere with reception? (iPhone 6)

  • iPhone: 6
  • Carrier: Verizon - reception home *.
  • Case: OtterBox Defender series

Deleted my OtterBox to clean an area of my house that reception is usually in a bar (dot, regardless). I looked at the lock screen and I got 3 bars. Make a call from this place. My friend heard me perfectly.  I walked around my house, which previously, the call dropped everytime. Yet once, my friend heard me perfectly all the time without loss of connection, no sizzle, no noise at all. Asked about the decline in coverage (before today) Verizon said I must be in a pocket with the interference of the tower and they tried to sell me their in-home services.

  • ONLY difference today: deleted Otter Box. No trees cut, no new turn in space, without whimsical wind, any sharp fall in the foliage.
  • Research: Articles I've seen are old (2012, 2013), refer to the older phone models, saying the OtterBox does not interfere, but I don't see any other explanation.  Is this a problem for someone else?

There is nothing in an Otterbox case which would interfere with RF reception. It is possible, I suppose, that there is some minor problems of the material with your phone, which is aggravated by the case put the pressure or torque light somewhere. I make an appointment at the Genius Bar at your local Apple store and show them the problem.

    the phone goes crazy on his own? I have two employees in the SoCal area having this problem. Both have updated to IOS 9.2 and on the Verizon network. Any advice would be great! «The phone cut, connects during a call to Conference of someone else in (the phone chooses who to call), it basically starts random on the phone stock selection as if someone is trying to use it.»  It puts not only calls on mute.  The keyboard for contacts has been absent for a while, but is now back. "That's what they live. We tried to reset hard phones, the last option that we have not yet tried is wipe it off and start over, but I don't see that as a solution, since one is nine and the other is about 6 months with the same problems accurate.

    Hello FergusonChris,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I understand that your business has iPhones whose screens are behaving erratically.  Given your description of the issue, it seems that the screen may be dirty or there is the screen protector/case that interferes with the screen.  To further support this issue, please see the link below.

    If the screen of your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch does not respond to touch

    Take care.

  • Fires my Wifi and BT said that my security (BullGuard) interfere with my reception.

    Original title: failure of WiFi

    I'm not techie so I do not understand the more complex problems.  My Wifi is triggered and BT said that my security (BullGuard) interfere with my reception, that which the firewall is set to high.  Still awaiting to hear talk about BullGuard.  Does anyone have an idea as to what is happening?

    I went back with BT, and they seemed to have fixed the problem - especially regarding the WiFi card that I use - Netis plugin.  It took them a while to reconfigure the system, but it now seems to work OK - but a bit slow sometimes?

  • Problem with my iPhone 6 s screen

    Hello

    I am having trouble with my iPhone 6s I bought 7 months ago.

    The problem is that if I touch the screen too hard (especially the top of the screen), then the screen stops working. All I see on the screen works as it normally does, but I just can't use the touch screen more.

    Thus, the only solution in this case it to lock/unlock my phone by using the power button, then it works normally. Sometimes I don't even have to press hard on the screen, I could for example be a part like slither.io with normal keys and the screen just randomly stops responding. Sometimes I have to just press a little harder than usual for the screen to react, but then if I have too much pressure, they would stop work again once of course.

    Have anyone experienced this before? A screen change will solve my problem? I just want to be sure before that I pay for it that I have updated to iOS 10 and it didn't fix anything, but yes, I guess it's a hardware problem?

    Since your phone is only seven months old, you should be covered by the warranty, if it's a hardware problem. The steps detailed here to try to see if something is useful: If the screen of your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch does not respond to touch - Apple Support
