Can't hear phone calls/button sounds or use speaker phone lg extravert

I tried to make a phone call but can't hear any ringing, the call goes through but nothing happens. My volume for the earpiece is at maximum and so is the main volume on my phone, I can't hear the button sounds either. If I hit the play button, I can hear the ringtone it plays for volume check and it will also play the power up and power down tones. I tried to use speaker phone, but when I touch the button it won't work. I took the battery out and that did not help at all. I also reset my phone, and that also did not help. I checked my alarm setting since I use that frequently and it works just fine too. I am extremely unhappy because I had this phone replaced in August because the camera stopped working and now it looks like I'll have to do it again but out of warranty.

I'm glad you still have some way to hear the audio on your phone, but let's get that speaker working! The most common reason for the phone's sound to stop working would be the switch on the side has been nudged accidently. Try to enable then disable Silent Mode http://bit.ly/Xhs40k to get the volume working again. Also, try to simply restart your iPhone by holding the power switch and home button together for 10 seconds. Nothing gets erased but it helps cleat out any temporary glitch your phone may experience.
If you're still having trouble, the next best step would be to reset the phone's settings http://bit.ly/HWRbPl. This does erase information from your phone, so make sure to back up http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 your iPhone information first.
Keep me posted if you continue to have audio trouble.

Any idea why I can only hear a caller when I'm using speaker phone?

Does anyone know why I can only hear a caller when I am using speaker phone?

Hi goodferg,
The troubleshooting steps below may help you with the sound issue you are having with your iPhone 4:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
Resolution
Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (chooseSettings > General > Bluetooth).
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
Hope this helps!

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.
If you can't hear a person on a call or voicemail or if the sound quality is poor on iPhone

No sound for incoming calls but it works using speaker and earpiece. I can't hear anything but the other party can hear me clearly. I was told it's hardware problem. Would anyone please help? Thanks

This is an annoying problem for many people. Most likely your dock connector (on the bottom where you plug in your phone) is dirty or screwed up and is probably just coincidence that it happened after you updated. Some people have had success cleaning the port with a dry clean tooth brush. There is a long discussion going on at the thread I linked below. Good luck...

Hi Shirley,
Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

Just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds

just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds is there any solution to this problem

If KiltedTim is correct I agree with him. If the phone is not hacked try temporarily disabling your antivirus and firewall that may be blocking access to gs.apple.com. See also this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error3194

My Iphone 4s earpiece is not working that good, can't hear the caller too good, any suggestions? Has this happened to anyone?

Does anyone have Suggestions on improving my earpiece? Can;t hear the caller when I call someone or they call me?

I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s. Usually the solution is one of the following:
1- If your volume indicator says headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
Hope one of these works for you

Can't hear my caller after I remove my iphone headphones

Has anyone else had this problem?
you are listening to your music using th iphone headphones, then you remove your headphones from the iphone, when you get a call you can't hear the caller and they can't hear you. I discovered that the only way to fix this problem is to re-insert the headphone and click the mute button on the headphone! It seems that when you use the headphones and click mute and then remove your headphones it remains stuck on mute, not allowing you to be heard on an outgoing or incoming call!!!!!
What's up with that this? is my second iphone and it has happened to both my phones. It's a good thing I had my headphones with me, otherwise my phone would be useless or worse yet if it was an emergency I would not be able to call 911!

That is the solution so far other than a restore.
FWIW It worked with a Belkin audio cord as well. I tried it a few times in and out with no luck.
Here's what worked for me:
1. Start ipod and pause on a song.
2. Insert cord or headset.
3. Hit play.
4. Hit Pause.
5. Remove cord or headset.
6. Hit play....
After (6) it didn't do much but then I noticed the volume slider grab a life of its own. When it settled down... all was working again.
What a pain in the rear.
Apple if you reading this fix it. I happened to get stuck at work after listening to music the night before... when I tried to make a call, guess what. All day without audio.
Brutal!

Sometimes on my iphone 5 i can't hear during calling how can i fix that thanks

sometimes on my iphone i can't hear during call !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i get my new iphone 5 about 1month ago
need solution

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

My earpiece turns on and I can't hear the call I just placed. I am not sure what I touch that activates this crazy earpiece. It is driving me crazy.

Hello to you Wildone007!
Let's get this earpiece away from the looney bin! SuzyQ asked some phenomenal questions (thank you!) Waht type of earpiece are you using and what phone model do you have?
We can figure this out together!
Thanks,
