How do I fix a distorted speaker?

Well my battery died and when I turned it back on the sound sounds distorted. This has happened to me before on a number of occasions and I contacted support and they told me to turn it on and off again and it worked but it persists and now turning it off doesn't work, what shall I do?

Might be. If you want to skip the rest of the troubleshooting steps and go to the Genius Bar, I wouldn't blame you. I did get a speaker replaced on an iPhone once for $68 but don't know if they'll do that for an iPad. Best of luck to you.

  • How do you fix the iPhone Speaker? PLEASE HELP

    Okay, soo i was asleep with headphones in, i woke up and my headphones were still in listening to music, then i unplugged then and my slide to unlock noise and text noise,music,etc stopped working but when i plug my headphones in, the noises all worked.
    Then i tried the...
    -Q-tip cleaping method
    -unplugging and replugging headphone method
    -ungplugging and replugging method
    -Force rebooting(holding sleep and power)
    -System Restore
    ...and no noise is coming out still, only noise that i can hear is when someone calls me, i can hear them and talk back, but when i put it on speaker,i cant hear them.
    Should i take it apart and unplug and replug the headphone jack, and speakers,etc?? IDK whats wrong with it

    I had this same problem until this morning. my speaker wasnt working so i tried inserting and rmoving the headphone jack about 50 times, then i sprayed air into the socket and it didnt work so eventually i bought a bluetooth protable speaker so i could listen to music in the shower and i tried it out for the first time this morning, then as i left my house double tapped the home screen and my volume bar was there, and it works fine now, i reccomend you try connecting and disconnecting from a bluetooth device or go to a shop and try out a bluetooth speaker and it might just fix your phone

  • How do I fix slight distortion in background in generating sine wave

    I'm getting a slight distortion in the background when I run the following code, the distortion is very slight and sounds like buzzing. Because of its subtle nature it makes believe there is some sort of aliasing going on with the byte casting:
    Note: code assumes (for now) that the data is in big endian.
    Output:
    PCM_SIGNED 44100.0 Hz, 16 bit, stereo, 4 bytes/frame, big-endian
    (sound)
         public static void playFreq(AudioFormat audioFormat, double frequency, SourceDataLine sourceDataLine)
              System.out.println(audioFormat);
              double sampleRate = audioFormat.getSampleRate();
              int sampleSizeInBytes = audioFormat.getSampleSizeInBits() / 8;
              int channels = audioFormat.getChannels();
              byte audioBuffer[] = new byte[(int)Math.pow(2.0, 19.0) * channels * sampleSizeInBytes];
              for ( int i = 0; i < audioBuffer.length; i+=sampleSizeInBytes*channels )
                   int wave = (int) (127.0 * Math.sin( 2.0 * Math.PI * frequency * i / (sampleRate * sampleSizeInBytes * channels) )  );
                   //wave = (wave > 0 ? 127 : -127);
                   if ( channels == 1 )
                        if ( sampleSizeInBytes == 1 )
                             audioBuffer[i] = (byte) (wave);
                        else if ( sampleSizeInBytes == 2 )
                             audioBuffer[i] = (byte) (wave);
                             audioBuffer[i+1] = (byte)(wave >>> 8);
                   else if ( channels == 2 )
                        if ( sampleSizeInBytes == 1 )
                             audioBuffer[i] = (byte) (wave);
                             audioBuffer[i+1] = (byte) (wave);
                        else if ( sampleSizeInBytes == 2 )
                             audioBuffer[i] = (byte) (wave);
                             audioBuffer[i+1] = (byte)(wave >>> 8);
                             audioBuffer[i+2] = (byte) (wave);
                             audioBuffer[i+3] = (byte)(wave >>> 8);
              sourceDataLine.write(audioBuffer, 0, audioBuffer.length);
         }

    The data was actually LITTLE-endian, it become apparent when you use a larger amplitude (say 2^15).

  • My ipod 5th gen won't change volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can change the volume on the speaker.  How do I fix this?

    My ipod 5th gen won't let me adjust volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can adjust the volume on the speaker.  How do I fix this?

    Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

    My iPod Touch will not play through external speakers when it is docked.  It only plays through it's internal speaker.  All the other functions on the iPod can be controlled by the external speakers (volume,track, etc).  How do I fix this?

    I would try in oreder:
    - Resetting the iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restoring the iPod via iTunes.  First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My speaker isn't working. How do I fix it?

    My iPod speaker isn't working and only happens to work when I use my headphones. I would like to fix my speaker, how can I fix this problem??

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default. I also have no voice with Safari or any other apps including music!

    If your speaker is broken, then you may need to get a repair done.
    Are you unable to hear anything at all, or is it just one speaker in particular?
    If it is just one speaker, where's it located?

  • When my iphone makes a sound it comes out distorted, why and how can I fix it?

    Whenever my iphone makes any sort of sound (video, music, lock sound, ect) it sounds distorted and demon like? I know that sounds weird but thats the only way I can think of accuratly describing it.
    It started doing that today and idk, I didn't drop it or anything either.
    Why is it doing this?
    and
    How can I fix it?

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 10 seconds until the iPhone restarts itself. See if better. If not, Restore iPhone with iTunes on computer. See if better. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare Coverage take or send to Apple for resolution.
