Can BARELY hear my voicemail even with volume all way up

I just got my iphone 3GS 16GB last week. I noticed this right away. I can't hear my voicemail. Even when the volume is turned ALL the way up and on Speaker, I can barely hear the messages.
What's up with this? Should I return it for repair/another??
Thanks!

Are you sure the speaker is on and not off...
toggle between the two just to make sure...
If it's truly defective only an Apple Genius apt will help...
Before that though...since they will ask...you will want to perform a full restore using " set up as new iPhone"
just to make sure it's not OS related

  • How come the volume of other programs are lowered while one FaceTime? I exchange media with friends and colleagues and I can barely hear anything. There should be a way we can manually control the volume of different programs

    I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
    But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
    iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
    This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
    Also see this , -> Download past purchases
    and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
    Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
    Actually, no it does not tell you that.
    FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

  • Callcenter reps can't hear callers with volume all way up

    Hello,
    Need some guidance in things to look for when callers can't be heard well by callcenter agents. I'm thinking the "input gain" but where do you apply this? Dial-peer or T1?
    any help is appreciated.

    The "input gain" command is applied to a voice port, for example:
    voice-port 0/0/0
    input gain 3
    Hope this helps. If so, please rate the post.

  • When watching movies on my iPad with headphones (they're Bose so good quality) on an airplane I can barely hear the sound with everything turned up--any suggestions to increase sound level outside of normal volume adjustments?  thanks for the help

    When watching a movie on my iPad 2 with headphones (they're Bose so good quality) on a plane I can barely hear even with volume at highest level--any suggestions on how to increase sound level outside of normal settings-sound level even lower when using a splitter--thanks

    Same problem with all headphones and earbuds--just checked settings and Volume Limit was already off--starting to think it's a volume system flaw tied to videos and related sound.   No problem getting plenty of sound volume for music, only videos.

    She must have signed into her own Apple ID on your iPad in order to sync her content from iTunes so try this and see if it works.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. See if your ID is showing in there and if it isn't - tap on her ID, sign out and then sign in with yours.
    You should not be syncing to to different iTunes libraries. The iPad can only sync with one iTunes library without erasing the the content on it if you decide to sync to another iTunes library.

  • I have a recently acquired iphone 4s and despite having good hearing and the volume up to max can barely hear who ever I am speaking to. WHat is wrong with the phone?

    I have a recently acquired iphone 4s and despite having good hearing and the volume up to max can barely hear who ever I am speaking to. WHat is wrong with the phone?

    The plastic cover was removed before I left the store and I have moved the volume up and down during, before and after phone calls. Have tried it in protective case and out of it. Impossible to hear calls unless phone is on speaker. There seems to be lots of comments re this. Is it a significant flaw? Can I fix it?

  • I can barely hear my ringer or Siri with my volume set all the way up.

    I can barely hear my ringer and it's turned all the way up.  I can't hear Siri at all but I can visually see that it's working.  The ringer is completely silent when I turn the volume down two bars.

    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.  If that doesn't work, create a backup then restore AS NEW.  If it still doesn't work after restoring & wiping everything off, take it to an ARS or call tech support to get it replaced.  Don't worry, all of your info will be backed up if you follow the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766

    Hi saintmary82,
    If you are having a hard time hearing people through the receiver, take a look at the article below for some suggestions to get it sorted out. Start with cleaning the receiver and making sure your iPhone is up to date. If you continue to have issues, then you may want to contact Apple Support for further assistance.

  • Phone volume so low I can barely hear person talking.  Help?

    I'm not sure what happened but now when I'm on a call, I can barely hear the person talking to me.  I tried a soft reset.  That did not work.  I reset my phone from iTunes and that did not work either.  I recently upgraded my software to 5.0.1 and recently added I cloud and imatch.  I have a few new apps but nothing big.  Is there something that I can do?  What might be going on? 

    in the settings under music, select the tab that says "volume limit", and see if the volume is locked on very low or something.

  • Very Low Volume on Phone Calls - Can barely hear the other person

    Just picked up my iPhone 4 at the Apple Store. Tried to make a phone call the the call volume is so low I can barely hear the other person calling.
    The speaker volume is not much better. The other person can hear me fine and says the sound is great.
    The volume dots are all the way up.
    The settings sound voulme under ringer is all the way up.
    ipod volume lock is not activated.
    Any other settings to check out?

    OK now I don't feel like I'm the only one. I've also done a hard reset and still suffer from the same issue.
    Since it seems to be the popular question, no the plastic is no longer on my phone.
    To call the volume I'm hearing a whisper would be a overstatement. This is a much bigger issue than the antenna. The phone is basically unusable without headphones. Unfortunately I'm not very close to a Apple store to exchange.

  • HT4528 I just got 2 iPhone 5 . We can barely hear each other in them unless we put on speaker phone, then every one can hear. Is there somewhere to turn up volume for hearing without using headphones? It 'sounds' as if theyre in, and Im just holding in my

    I just bought 2 iPhone 5 s. I can barely hear the person on the other end unless I turn on the speaker phone..then every one can hear. I cant find a way to turn up hearing volume. Tried blue tooth on/ and bluetooth off. Phone ring is set high. Both phones are having the same problem, so must be missing something?

    thanks, that seamed to work. I had the volume turned all the way up but I guess maybe I needed to repeat that while using phone, sort of two step.. good to know

  • Callers can barely hear me when making a phone call

    Hello!
    For the last 3 days, whenever I am talking on the phone the other person says they can barely hear me, that my voice is too low. My volume during calls is at the maximum and I haven't changed any settings.
    Can someone please help? I have no idea whats happening!
    Thanks,
    Rosin
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Try rebooting your phone (which I recommend doing once a month even if it's running properly). Press and hold the power button until you see 'BlackBerry' on your screen, ignoring anything you see before that. It should take about 20 seconds. Once it's rebooted, try a call and post back with your results.
    Cheers.
