While most software updates load without issue, at times something can cause them to glitch out and go corrupt, CJCoil. Not to worry, as we’ve got this for you. Restoring your phone via iTunes typically clears out the glitches. Here’s a link with steps to complete this. http://apple.co/1GEYTtu We do recommend backing your phone up to iCloud or Verizon Cloud prior to completing this step so everything goes back to how you have it.

Random actions on this awesome device isn’t what we’d expect, CJCoil. We’re on the case. What’s changed (i.e. software update, new apps, etc) on the device since this issue began? How much memory is available on the device?

Updated to 9.1. 37 gigs of space.

Didnt notice this until update, but not sure about that.

We definitely want you to have a clear call experience, Tierneyab! Does this issue occur in multiple locations? Does it occur with a particular contact (s)?

Time it takes to troubleshoot your device is inconvenient at best, CJCoil. We appreciate you being a trooper and handing in with us through all the steps. It’s definitely possible a specific app or file is corrupt, and causing the phone’s random actions. While it can be tedious to go through this process, it will yield the best results once the corrupt app/data file is discovered and we’ll know how to proceed. Please keep us posted.
