Ive reset the phone and went thru all the settings and everything to try to fix with no luck at all please help me!

fdisk formated and reinstaled windows 3 times. fresh install each time i installed a sound card. so I dont think lingering drivers is the problem which also means dx9 has been installed fresh each time.also I have been dealing with this for nearly a month and I am at a loss.

IPhone 4S Sound Problems

My phone no longer outputs any sound via it's speakers. I can hear sound with headphones and also if it is connected by the dock connector it will output sound to whatever it is connected to.
I have tried plugging and unplugging headphones several times thinking that it is stuck in headphone mode but that did not resolve the problem. I tried a factory reset in case it was software related but that didn't fix it either. I am out of ideas at this point. The phone is four months out of warranty so I'm not sure genius bar will be much help.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello Aww Geez,
The following article provides a few additional troubleshooting steps, such as checking for paired bluetooth devices and restoring the iPhone.

IPhone 4S sound problem please help?!

I have a 4s and updated to ios7 when it came out. Today my phone has no audio apart from ringtone. The volume bar for example is not available in you tube. The buttons when pressed to adjust sound do not show no volume increase or decrease. The speakers work as I can adjust ringtone in settings and can hear it loud and clear. Is this a bug from the update?

Hello Leoner777,
I would be concerned too if the speaker on my iPhone was not working. I found an article with some steps to take when you are experiencing issues like this:

IPhone 4 Sound problems

I just got my iPhone 4 yesterday and I can't get the sound to work without the headphones. I have checked the silent button numerous times, restarted and turned off it, I have checked the settings and turned silent off, I also tried unplugging and replugging the headphones. Can someone please help me!

Check and see if anything has by chance gotten inside your headphone jack, and/or take a nice can of compressed air to it.
The fact that the phone continues to play music when you can no longer hear it is interesting, because the phone is designed to stop playing music if it thinks the headphones have somehow become disconnected, i.e. what often happens if there's an issue with the contacts inside of your headphone jack.
Outside of giving that a good cleaning to be safe, I'm not sure what else it might be. Hopefully someone else has some experience with it, but if it were me, my first steps would be to back up everything, restore the iPhone (just to see if it's software-related), and if not, then probably assume it's hardware and take it to Apple.
That being said, I've seen a lot of headphone jack issues solved with a good can of compressed air, and I've seen people's headphone jacks get clogged with pocket lint and the like.

Iphone 5 sound problem

I have the new iphone 5 but my sound when somebody calls me is very weak , anybody knows why ??

Does your iPhone say headphones when you adjust the volume, even when they are disconnected?
You can try disconnecting and reconnecting the headphones 5-6times or restoring the iPhone.
If that doesn't do it, you can setup service for the iPhone online or have a Genius take a look at it.

Iphone 4 Sound Problem

Hi, I am facing a situation where the sound of the iPhone 4 periodically 'dies', i.e., it becomes so low as to be inaudible. The way out is to shut down the iPhone and restart. Is this a hardware or software bug? I have tried everything: reinstalling the software, re-setting the iPhone, and so on. I am not sure if this is related to using Skype on the iPhone because I had a Skype call prior to the sound going 'dead' but I cannot confirm if it always the case. Appreciate your comments and suggestions.

Confirmed.
After running Skype 2.1.0 and the person puts the call down, all sounds only come out of the ear speaker. Using the multi-tasking shortcut and closing Skype results in the normal functioning of all the speakers.
Forum post on the Skype forums can be seen here: http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=659433
Thankfully they are aware of the issue:

It seems that the new backgrounding behaviors still need some tweaking by both Apple and 3rd party developers. The interactions have suddenly gotten quite complicated.
We suspect that this is the work of a volume control flag which is handled in different ways in different apps. Some scenaria produce this effect and we're looking for a proper way to make it behave. It may be something that Apple needs to set the rules for in a different way.
We're on it and will change it for the better in the next release.

I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.
