Bottom speaker metal mesh is a little bent in...

Ok. stupid question time. I just got my first iPhone, the iPhone 4S about a month ago, and it is only today that I found that the bottom speakers' metal mesh is a little bent/curved in at the center. It's not that obvious, but I do see a little bit of gap at the side of the mesh because it is curved/bent in.
My question is this, would it affect the speaker and microphone quality in anyway, and will the dust get in easily? As a first time iPhone user, I'm a little bit paranoid. >.<

Thanks! I guess I'm just a bit paranoid. I kept feeling my phone's volume was softer today (I still do, weird), and that's why I went to check on the speaker/mic area in detail.
I wonder if I was the one who caused it to bent/curved in or it was like this when I brought it. I have 2 years of Apple Protection Plan, so I was wondering if I should go to Apple Support and have them take a look at it. Hmmm.

  • N85 bottom speaker problem

    Hi everybody,
    Just bought N85 (made in china) with latest firmware 11.047 with bottom speaker not working at all.
    Does anybody else encounter such problem?
    Is it a hardware failure or firmware?
    Thanks in advance.

  • IPhone 4S bottom speaker not working

    My iPhone 4S bottom speaker isn't working. Headphone jack still works. When my phone is on speaker people can hear me but I can't hear them. There's no sound when my phone rings or when I'm typing. It's driving me nuts. I've been to sprint &amp; I've called Apple &amp; was told that they can't give me a brand new phone, but refurbished is just as good. I tried the air thing &amp; still nothing. Any other solutions?!?

  • Bottom speaker

    Hello everyone!
    My one month old xperia has a problem, sound volume of bottom speaker is much lower than speaker on the top. Actually i don't remember if it was like that always or happened during my usage. It's so quiet that I need to apply it close to the ear to hear it as much as top speaker. Is it normal or if not, can I fix it at home? Regards

  • Xperia Z3 bottom speaker sounds low

     Hello I've noticed that top speaker is sounds more high level than bottom speaker
    I've asked to my local Sony Center about this and he said me its should sound same level 
    What is the right information about that?
    Thank you

    From what I heard, when you try to play media files from speakers the top one will be louder than the buttom. Check this:

  • Xperia Z3 bottom speaker doesn't work

    I washed my phone 1 day ago and only now I noticed that the bottom speaker is way too silent. Main top speaker is working fine. If you play any song and rotate the phone horizontally, you can tell that there is a big difference. I don't know how can I fix this. Pls help.
    PS sorry if my English is bad

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    There aredust and water protection nets for our phone's loudspeaker and earspeaker. There might be tiny water droplets covering the nets after the phone is taken out from the water.This affects the propagation of sound in the air, which causes the sound become quiet. In the ordinalry environment, the tiny water droplets may eavaporate naturally within three hours, then the phone can be used with normal sound performance.

  • I have iPhone 3GS, and everytime I go to listen to my music with my headphones the sound only goes to one ear and when I listen to music with the speakers at the bottom speaker the left speaker only works! Can someone PLEASE HELP ME?

    My music only plays in my left ear when I'm wearing my headphones and when I'm listening to music without my headphones the music only comes out through the left speaker. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME,? YOUR HELP WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED.?

    All iphone have one and only one speaker at the bottom.
    Have you tried another set of earphones?  Maybe they are the problem?
    Have you made sure that the headphones are inserted all the way?

  • What is that weird button next to multitasking volume control that controls whether music comes out of ear speaker or bottom speaker?

    There is a weird button beside the multitasking volume control that allows me to play the music through the ear speaker. The button shows a rectangle and triangle together. Is this normal?

    If you mean the image below, that's AirPlay.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4437.

  • My ipad mini is a little bent?

    Recently I observed that my iPad mini is a little curved at the left back side. Now this curve is so small that you cannot see it easily, unless u hold it at an angle or keep it on a flat surface.
    I am really worried about this because I have never dropped my iPad . So is this normal or a manufacture defect. Because I haven't really noticed the bend until now . What should

    If it was normal I doubt you'd be asking about it.

  • IPhone 6 bottom speaker quiet

    I bought my iPhone in March, I've not had any problems with it apart from every so often the sounds decide to suddenly become quieter.  This includes camera shutter sound, lock noise, notifications etc etc. When the phone is restarted it goes back to normal and the sound is at the volume it should be, however after a while (this could be 30 mins or up to a few days) the dound level goes back down again. I know a restart is only a minute or so job however it's getting quite annoying.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue?
    Note - I'm running 8.3 and it has done it on the previous software version.

    First try a restore using iTunes. If you have a software problem then it will be solved. If you have a true hardware problem you can go to a cell phone repair shop or talk to Apple to see what they can do to help.

  • I bought an iPhone 4 from target about a week ago and just noticed that the left bottom speaker isn't working. Do I take it to target? Will they replace it? Or can I take it to apple?

  • Broken (Front) Fan/Speaker Panel - Bent/Broken Pins

    Hello,
    I try to clean out my G5 tower every few months, and recently noticed that the pins that the front panel [that house the fan and speaker] fit onto have either become bent or have broken off completely. This has resulted in the fan not working (the speaker still does).
    I'm concerned because the computer seems to get quite hot, and the other fans in the unit seem to be overcompensating for its failure. Additionally, this is the fan that rests directly in front of the G5 processor, and I'm terrified that it's eventually going to suffer a severe and irreversible meltdown. Is this a quick-fix or a doomsday scenario? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello BDAqua,
    Thank you for the warm welcome! I usually blow out the dust when I'm cleaning the tower, which is about every three months or so. The temps as reported by Temperature Monitor are as follows:
    CPU A DIE TEMP = 48.4̊C (Specified Upper Limit = 65.0̊C)
    DRIVE BAY = 28.5̊C
    MAIN LOGIC BOARD AIR INLET = 25.1̊C
    " " AMBIENT = 32.6̊C
    " " BACKSIDE = 40.1̊C
    MEMORY CONTROLLER HEAT SINK = 54.1̊C
    PROCESSOR CARD A AMBIENT = 38.2̊C
    SMART DISK = 39̊C
    These temps are without any real programs running. I also don't know if the specified upper limit of 65.0̊C applies to all of the other temperatures. Does this information suggest anything to you? Thank you so much for your assistance!

  • Powerbook G4 slightly bent in the middle

    OK, so I have my laptop on a little bag attached to the handle of my carryon at the airport. The carryon falls over, and it looks lilke the metal handle put a little bind in the middle of my G4.
    It's almost imperceptible, except when you close the laptop (the corners aren't tight anymore) and the thin strip of metal between the little light up button and that plastic edging before the keyboard/touchpad top part begins is bent outward about a 1/4 inch.
    The G4 seems to be working fine (infact I'm at the airport as I write this), but I'm worried about consequences down the line.
    Should I take this to the Apple store and get it looked at? Should I get the case repaired? Anything I should be looking out for? Should I just relax?

    Hi andertoons --
    Different people likely will have differing views on this, but my 2¢ is that you should just relax and consider the ding to be a sort of mark of character, a battle scar proudly earned by a trusty (and hopefully reliable) comrade in (business) arms. I've had my PB for some 19 months now and it's got many such scars -- all a testament to the brave and frequent combat its seen me through.
    The ding itself, being user caused and most likely cosmetic damage only, won't (as I think your question seems to indicate) be covered under Apple's original or extended warranty (the AppleCare Protection Plan). From what you've described, the only reason that I could see to have it looked at would be that if you are still covered by either of those warranties and you might want to get the ding noted officially so that it wouldn't later be seen as evidence of user-caused damage in the event something went wrong later, un-related to the ding, that would otherwise be covered.
    Alternatively, you could, on your own ticket, get the case repaired, but that wouldn't be cheap and would entail loss of use (albeit not for too long a time, presuming the part was in stock). That's really, to my mind, just a matter of personal preference, and I wouldn't as long as the ding doesn't impair any of the PB's functions.
    My vote: just relax and move on to the next battle....
