Hi. This problem was the main reason I got a new phone. Sometimes I try to call a number in my contacts, and the bug happens. It doesn’t happen every time. When it does, I turn my phone off and back on again, and things work. For me, this was happening before 15.4.1.
There’s something else my phone is doing. If I make a call and go to speaker, the volume is lower than what I had it at. If I increase the volume, it gets louder. I usually have the phone at its maximum volume for speaker, so that shouldn’t happen. Again, this was before 15.4.1. I thought my new phone had corruption from when I got things from my old phone. Evidently that’s not what’s happening. Whatever’s going on also is affecting my Apple Watch from time to time. That’s what I know. Have a blessed day and don’t work too hard.

Siri calling many phone numbers for me just hangs and doesn’t connect. I think there is a wider issue at play here than just special characters.

I have researched this bug, on the web, and a great deal of people are reporting the problem. I, as yet, have not discovered a solution. If the following makes no sense to you, then just ignore it. In iOS15.4.1, Siri will not Dial Telephone Numbers that Begin with a Symbol On some Wireless networks, one can selectively display one's CallerID by inserting a prefix symbol sequence in front of a telephone number. Please note that the prefix symbol sequence continues to function as expected when one manually selects the phone number from the Contacts list or from the Favorites page in the Phone app. The bug does not appear until one attempts to use Siri to dial a contact, hands-free. Steps to Reproduce the Bug: 1. Create a Contact with a local telephone number that includes the prefix symbol sequence of *31#. For example "*31#2125551212" (without the quotation symbols.) This will allow the contact (John Doe) to see your telephone number even when the show caller ID setting is disabled, in the Phone app. 2. >From the Settings area, select the Phone app. 3. Set [SHOW MY CALLER ID] to OFF. 4. Say to Siri, "Call John Doe." Siri will respond with "Calling John Doe" and the phone app will appear. After a few seconds, however, the phone app disappears and no call is placed. Mark -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
