Not sure what kind of car you have but,,, just for the heck of it, when you turn on your lights , try turning your interior dimmer all the way up. If the radio works again, then you have it powered from the wrong wire in the dash. It needs to go to a constant hot (12V) and Accy/ignition (12V) and not to a lighting wire which would power the back lighting of a factory radio.
see if there is a local/distant selector on your unit. It will make it so your radio will only let you find very strong stations, also check your antenna connection to make sure it is pushed all the way into the connector and is clean of corrosion or anything that could keep it from making good contact inside of the connection, you can use steel wool or scotchbrite pads on the surfaces to ensure a good connection.
You don't mention the year, make and model of the vehicle or, what exactly is installed with this headunit. However, I have seen this issue with certain installations concerning the cancellation of the front speakers during the phone operation( if an amp is connected and the front speakers are routed through the amp) and, when the installer fails to connect the remote turn on wire (blue /white) to the vehicle's amp turn on.
