Cant hear ringer tone when calling others nor can hear who im calling

okay so everytime i make a call for the frist time i cant hear the ringer tone nor can hear the person im calling.
they say they can hear me perfectly but the only thing i hear is my own voice,
i see the call outgoes the iphone because the call timer starts to count but i cant hear the ringer nor the person im calling so i can never tell when they answer my call or not unless i see the timer.
Now i have to hang up and call again, THEN the second time i call i can hear the ringer and the person im calling when they answer.
i have an iphone 4s 32gb with iOS5 and siri is off, in fact i have never turned it on
any help? is my phone defective? or do i have to wait for an update to fix this?
thanks!

I have the same problem, but I am sorry to say that I have no idea why it happens.

    I have the same problem!! It lead to many other problems with my phone
    I just arranged a repair with apple. Yes its inconvenient to be without a phone for a while but if your phone is in warranty its good to get it looked at professionally!

  • Cant get a ring tone when some one calls or a tone for mymessages

    cant get a ring tone when people call same with my messages and i cant hear callers unless i pt it on speaker

    I just reread your message and at first I thought you wanted to get ringtones. Now I think you meant you don't hear sounds unless you are on speakerphone. I would try a Restart to seeif it learns your issue. To Restart Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Sometimes when I make a call the receiving party hears a ring but neither one of us can hear the other.  Is this my phone or the network I am using?

    It appears to be a bug with the iphone 4S.
    Hopefully future updates will fix it.

    Hey shahbazfromgbr,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having issues with sound output on your iPhone 4S. For troubleshooting steps, the following article provides the best information:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
    1. Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    2. Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    3. 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:
    4. 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.
    5. 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.
    6. If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    7. 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.
    8. If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (choose Settings > General > Bluetooth).
    9. Restart the iPhone.
    10. If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    11. If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    hi when i playback videos on my phone, i cant hear the sound ....also when i call someone or when i get a call i cant put it on speaker mode because i can hear them but they cant hear me

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    If you have been through ALL of the troubleshooting steps and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for investigation.

  • I phone 4 when face timing i can hear people but they cant hear me

    i phone 4 when face timing i can hear people but they cant hear me. help

    Having similar problem here only the other way around. The people on the other end of the phone can hear me but I get no sound at all. I can communicate if I plug in the earphones or put the caller on loud speaker. When this fault is occurring I also lose most sounds from my phone. Instead of getting an incoming message noise it only vibrates. I also lose all keypad and lock etc sounds. This problem comes and goes and is truly annoying. The phone is still under warranty but it will be an inconvenience trying to have this problem rectified. It would be interesting to know if it is a hardware problem or another problem created by the upgrade to this os system to 4.1. Either way it is a problem that Apple need to look at urgently as it appears to be fairly wide spread from my research on these boards. I suggest everyone who is having this problem also reports it via the feedback page on the apple site

    Hi

    I have no problems when on speaker, but it is the only way I can answer my phone, when someone calls me.

  • I´ve just changed my apple id password, and when trying to use Facetime, after having entered such new password, it won´t fullfill the calls, nor can I receive incoming calls, it simply gets disconnected. What do I do??

    Hello Delaney1130,
    It sounds like you are getting static on both the receiver and the speaker when you make a call. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article to help resolve the issue named:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
    https://support.apple.com/kb/TS3406
    Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Check your phone settings:
    Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
    Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
    See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
    Ensure that your software is up to date:
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update.
    Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
    If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
    If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
    Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Try to make or receive calls in another location.
    Attempt to isolate to one network band:
    If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
    If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
    Contact the carrier to check the following:
    Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
    There are no localized service outages.
    Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
    Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
    Restore the phone as new.
    If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling
