How come some podcasts are loud while others I can barely hear?

I enjoy listening to podcasts while at work. I work in a place that does not allow head phones nor does it allow for a stereo. I use a small iHome speaker. The Red Eye Radio podcast has a perfect volume level, while the Billy Cunningham podcast, Bill Burr, and Stuff you should Know podcasts can barely hear at full volume. How come the volume is so different from show to show. Can't there be some kind of podcast/broadcast standard. I enjoy all these programs but find myself only listening to the ones I can hear.

Try CTRL+(ZERO)

I can barely hear callers, bars frequently X-ed out, showing no Sim card

Just recently I can barely hear the caller on my Droid DNA. I have not damaged my phone in any way. Also it starts showing no SIM card. I will restart and then that will fix itself but the volume for the caller barely exists. My volume is turned up. I have no problem hearing ring tones, etc and people can hear me. Also my bars will sometimes just x out and I have to reboot again. I am sick of not being able to hear my callers. Help!!!!

A few things to try:
Remove the SIM and reseat it, then restart the phone.
Go to a Verizon store and have them replace the SIM with a new one (it's free)
Try a system cache clear (instructions below)
Set your preferred Network mode to LTE/CDMA
System cache clear:
Power down phone
Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously until you see the Boot Mode Selection Menu
Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
Press volume up/down simultaneously to go into system recovery
Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select

I can barely hear people

Hello everyone!
I have a problem with my new iPhone 5. It's my first iPhone so I'm not too sure what to do.
I can barely hear people. Everyone sais that they hear me perfectly, but I only hear them when it's silence around me. Everything else works perfectly, sounds, music, everything.
I have it for 2 days now, and I didn't take that plastic screen-protector off yet. Could that be it? I saw that it doesn't have coutouts.

If you pause for a second and think about it - while on phone calls, you are covering your only source of sound/voice directly with a protective layer of plastic. How are you supposed to hear the other person talk? It obvously wont hinder the music audio etc. since that is coming out from the bottom of the phone which is not covered with plastic.
Take the plastic off and it will solve your problem. btw, why anyone would make and receive phone calls with the plastic sheet on the phone is beyond my limited ability to comprehend how things function.

I can barely hear the person on the other line, i tried resetting but it didnt work

I can barely hear the person on the other line, i tried resetting as suggested by other users but it didn't work. Help!!

Do you have a screen protector covering the speaker?
Have you powered the iPhone off and back on?

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

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.

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

Can barely hear the other person when talking on the phone

when using the phone function i can barely hear the other person on the line.. the speker volume is at the max.

remove the thin plastic cover, its not the protective kind its a shipping one. It is covering you ear piece.

Can barely hear incoming call?

Can barely hear an incoming call. Sounds very distant. What can I do to resolve this? Thanks

Dear Deborah, I just received my latest iPhone, iPhone 4S and I am experiencing a similar problem. For a hard-of-hearing person this problem might be too much. I have not reset my new phone yet but I am going to do so soon. I will see what happens.
Another question: How about those ringtones? The iPhone seems to reset itself to the default ringtone constantly eventhough I have put individual ringtones to my contacts. Any ideas how to solve this one?

Did you try turning up the volume button on the left side, Also go into your settings>sounds and try to change the volume.

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.

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.
- If my response has helped you, please click "Options" beside my post and mark it as solved. Clicking the "thumbs up" icon near the bottom of my response would also be appreciated.

I just bought my new iphone 4s and when I make a call or receive a call i can barely hear them. I have gone to settings and to sounds and turn it all the way up, but it doesn't help. What else can I do?
