First of all: avoid generic thread titles.

Second: are you using the Internet when this happens? If you are in an area without 3G data, the phone cannot receive calls when it has an open data connection. This is because 2G data uses the same channels used for phone calls.

Do you have it set to check your email automatically? That also uses a data connection.

Alternatively, if you are in a marginal signal , is possible that if your iPhone is in your pocket or something it may no longer have a signal.

no it only checks email when i ask it to

have noticed the signal can be half or full
