About 20 minutes ago I received a call. I missed it. Why? &#8211; My iPhone physically didn&#8217;t let me answer it &#8230; <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Obviously, this has to go down as one of those, &#8220;I can&#8217;t prove it happened, but trust me, it did&#8221; scenarios. So, just now I was minding my own business, when my iPhone rang. The first thing I noticed was the screen wasn&#8217;t backlit, but the phone was still ringing. Now as I&#8217;m sure you know (but if you don&#8217;t) when an iPhone rings, like any other phone, it shows the person calling on-screen. Well today, it didn&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>So anyway, I clicked the home button expecting to find options to answer the call. Nothing. The normal slide to unlock screen was there in place. I was expecting the call, so I knew exactly who it was who was calling, but I missed the call due to iPhoneOS not displaying the &#8216;Answer&#8217; &#8216;Decline&#8217; calling screen. The obvious answer would be, &#8220;it wasn&#8217;t a call, but an alert&#8221; &#8230; But it definitely was a call. One, because I rang back the person, and they confirmed they&#8217;d just tried to ring me, and secondly, I had no alerts set to go off.<\/p>\n<p>I just started up a thread over at Mac Rumors, and it looks like I&#8217;m not the only person having these problems.
