I cannot hear ring or other person talking

I can hear my iPhone 3G ring but cannot hear the caller talking unless I put them on speaker. Also can't hear it ring when I call out to other person.

im thinking it was a network issue...my phone is now able to hear incoming and outgoing calls. i hope all of your phones are now doing the same too.

When I call I can't hear the ringing sound or the other person talking to me unless I have the headset plugged in or when I have it on speaker. Help please !

When I call I can't hear the ringing sound or the other person talking to me unless I have the headset plugged in or when I have it on speaker. Help please !

Mine does this intermittently. Occasionally after dialing the number, I can’t hear anything. I routinely have re-dial and sometimes this does not work either. Sometimes if I close all applications, including the dialer, then restart the dialer, it will work again. Sometimes I have to close all programs and restart the phone. It’s definitely frustrating.

I just bought this iPhone 4S second hand and during incoming and outgoing calls I can't hear the other person talk unless it's on speaker or if I have headphones in. I don't know what to do I've turned up my volume and checked my settings!! Need help

I Just bought a second hand iPhone 4S I am having issues with the hearing during incoming and outgoing calls, I have turned the volume up and checked my settings but I still have trouble hearing the other person speak. It works if it's on speaker or if I have headphones plugged in. I need help desperately!!!!! Any suggestions on what to do???

Hey Itsanaasaunders,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues hearing sound while on a call (receiver wise, not speakerphone). The following resource provides troubleshooting steps for this symptom:
If you can't hear a person on a call or voicemail or if the sound quality is poor on iPhone - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203800
Clear the receiver
The iPhone receiver won't work properly if it's blocked or dirty. Here's where the receiver is:
Follow these steps, testing after each:
- Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver, such as a case or film.
If you have a new iPhone, remove the plastic film on the front and back of the device.
- Check the receiver opening to see if it's blocked or dirty. If necessary, clean the receiver opening with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
- While you're on a call, turn on speakerphone. If you still can't hear, then your network or reception could be the issue. Try calling again later or from a different location.
Restart and update
1. Restart your iPhone and test again.
2. If there's still no sound or poor sound quality, update to the latest version of iOS.
Get more help
If you've tried these steps and there's still no sound or poor sound quality from your iPhone, contact Apple Support.
Thanks,

Cannot Hear Ring Unless Headset In Ear?

iPhone 4S & Jawbone Era
Cannot hear the phone ring unless headset in my ear. Missing important calls and texts. I can't keep headset on all day, and I can't pair it quickly enough when calls come in. This is silly I will have to only use headset for outgoing calls if isn't resolved or find other brand. :-(

this is a user forum so we can't really do anything
apart from that somebody may know a good work around but if you want to
get in touch with apple to let them know your opinion

I cannot hear the other person talk on my new iPhone 4s

Whyyyyyy???

Have you pressed the volume up on the side of the iPhone? Also, is it with everyone who calls or just a certain person?

Phone rings but cannot hear caller on other end

I've only had my phone for a few days and something has gone terribly wrong! The phone seemed to be working fine until I downloaded the BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.5.0.152 (Multilanguage) update late last night. This morning I noticed while reviewing the ring tones already on the phone that I could not make them play, but I thought maybe I was doing something wrong because I was able to hear them when I first started using the phone.
Immediately after the software update I had to change the radio settings so that I could access the internet again (radio settings I think). Is there a setting on the phone I need to update, or something else I can do to resolve this?
Thanks very much in advance!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So, to be clear, it occurs, you pop the battery, things work fine for a while, then it occurs again, and you must again pop the battery?
Is that release of the device OS that you installed certified by your carrier? Or is it a leaked version? You can check your carrier's release here:

You might also try reloading the device OS -- something may have gone a bit wrong during the install last night.
KB11320 How to perform a clean reload of the BlackBerry Device Software using the Application Loader tool
Otherwise, if it persists, you should contact your carrier (if it was a sanctioned OS release) and let them know.

On my iphone 4 I can only hear ringer, all other sound is off and volume buttons dont work. Can anyone help?

I have no sound or vlume control. only can hear phone ring. Please help !!!!!

If the volume buttons don't work then you can go into settings, general, scroll all the way down to accessibility, click it, turn on assistive touch, go back and a little gray square with a white circle should appear. Click that and then click devices and there should be a volume control there.
Hope this helps!

Stuff I've tried already:Checking mic/speaker settings (they are correct)Reinstalling skypeRestarting PCSearching for fixes in older postsLeaving/being readded to the callGetting someone else to host the call I'm running the latest version of skype, and this error only appeared today, previously the call has worked fine.

FaceTime - I cannot hear the other end at times and the mic now has a forward slash in front of it and I can't get it to go away

FaceTime-at times I cannot hear - no audio - the person on the other end. The mic now has a forward slash over it and I cannot get the slash to disappear. At times I hear the other end even though the forward slash is still there. I believe I have checked all of the settings.

If they don't show up on screen captures, it's most likely a hardware failure. Make an appointment at the genius bar.

I have just purchased my Iphone 4s, and the volume of the sound is very low, I can hardly hear the other person. I have tried the button for higher volume, but there is no change

I have just purcahsed my Iphone 4s, and the volume is very low, I can hardly hear the other person talk. I have tried the botton for higher volume, but it doesn`t work. Can anybody give me an answer to what is wrong?

When i call, i can´t hear the other person

Hi, I have a problem.
When i make a call, i can´t hear to the other person, i only hear them so far.
Please, help !!

I've got that problem too sometimes. I think it's a mistake in iOS and it will be fixed in another iOS-update

I cannot listen to other person without speakerphone or cable or blue tooth

I have an iphone 3g 8 gig. I cannot listen to the other person as we do on other phones but I have to put it on speakerphone or on audio cable. Help please

I had the same problem in FF and Chrome. I thought it was them with the new updates messing something up. Nope, it was a new extension I installed. HTTPS Everywhere. If you are using that or something similar. I turned it off for Amazon Web Services and it worked again like it used to. :-)

Don't hear ringing when making call

Hi,
Recently when I make a call I don't hear the call ringing the other person. It's fine once the other person picks up but I just don't hear the ringing so I never know if it's actually trying to connect or not - any suggestions? Anything I've done in settings etc?
Thanks

Forgot to say, sorry, it's an iPhone 4s
Thanks!

Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. HELP

Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. Other iphones work good in the same locations. HELP

A network extender? Not sure what that is.. Sounds like it might help here at home.. But what about outside the house? At work, the store, or just out on the road?
I'm hopeing this is something that can get fixed.. I hate to think I wasted all this money on something that doesn't work.. Does apple have a return police?
I think I'll try getting an appointment at the apple store to see if they can fix this issue.
Thanks for your help.
