In-coming calls on 8120 heard through speaker phone

When I answer a call on my new 8120 the first couple of seconds can be heard on the speakerphone. The caller then can only be heard as expected through the normal phone ear speaker.
How can I turn off this feature (if it is indeed a feature)? I don't want in-coming calls (at least the first seconds) to be heard by all in a crowded room.
Thanks in advance for any help.

crjeeper,
Have all of your replacements been in an effort to solve this one problem? What model is your phone? I haven't tried to get a replacement phone mainly because the problem went away, I thought. It hasn't totally. It doesn't happen as frequently but still happens occasionally. I've yet to figure out if it happens in any certain mode, etc. Let us know if you get it figured out.
Thanks,
ddb

They will help you just make sure that you make a appointment before you go into the store. Also if the iPhone needs to be replaced and you are not within your year of hardware coverage, that is when they will ask you to pay a fee.

Any idea why I can only hear a caller when I'm using speaker phone?

Does anyone know why I can only hear a caller when I am using speaker phone?

Hi goodferg,
The troubleshooting steps below may help you with the sound issue you are having with your iPhone 4:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
Resolution
Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
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:
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.
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.
If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
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.
If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (chooseSettings > General > Bluetooth).
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
Hope this helps!

Cannot be heard on speaker phone

How can I correct my iphone 4 to be heard on speaker phone mode?

Can't hear phone calls/button sounds or use speaker phone lg extravert

I tried to make a phone call but can't hear any ringing, the call goes through but nothing happens. My volume for the earpiece is at maximum and so is the main volume on my phone, I can't hear the button sounds either. If I hit the play button, I can hear the ringtone it plays for volume check and it will also play the power up and power down tones. I tried to use speaker phone, but when I touch the button it won't work. I took the battery out and that did not help at all. I also reset my phone, and that also did not help. I checked my alarm setting since I use that frequently and it works just fine too. I am extremely unhappy because I had this phone replaced in August because the camera stopped working and now it looks like I'll have to do it again but out of warranty.

@ceasonly
I'm glad you still have some way to hear the audio on your phone, but let's get that speaker working! The most common reason for the phone's sound to stop working would be the switch on the side has been nudged accidently. Try to enable then disable Silent Mode http://bit.ly/Xhs40k to get the volume working again. Also, try to simply restart your iPhone by holding the power switch and home button together for 10 seconds. Nothing gets erased but it helps cleat out any temporary glitch your phone may experience.
If you're still having trouble, the next best step would be to reset the phone's settings http://bit.ly/HWRbPl. This does erase information from your phone, so make sure to back up http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 your iPhone information first.
Keep me posted if you continue to have audio trouble.

Phone Cuts Off During Calls and Jumps to Facetime & Speaker Phone

My Mom's IPhone 4, during phone calls, constantly cuts off (doesn't register as dropped calls though,) jumps into facetime and jumps into speaker phone for no known reason. She has taken it to the Apple Store Support Team three times. The first time she was not treated nicely and was told nothing was wrong, the second time I went with her and they wiped her phone clean and started from scratch and the third time she bought a brand new phone. None of these options have worked and the problem persists. This is her fourth IPhone over three years of no major issues until now, so I don't see why this would just start happening for her in the last year. Are there similar issues like this in the community and does anyone have an idea how to solve it?

I'm sorry for misunderstanding you, but you said she went to the Apple store and the third time she bought a new phone. Did the new phone work then? Is the issue still persisting on the old device? That's where I'm confused. Did she get the device replaced or just buy a new phone and the problem is still happening on the old device.

Why cant anyone hear me on a call unless its using the speaker phone?

I have had the 4s for 3 weeks and suddenly people cant hear me unless i go to speaker phone, i can record with audio but siri doesnt hear anything

See the "more like this" section on the right side of this page.

Microphone is heard through speak

Hey..... I have the SB Li've24bit sound card which has the three(3) holes to accept my Creative 5. surround speaker system. Of course it also has a fourth hole to accept a microphone. I use the microphone feature during online games and with Ventrilo and Teamspeak. The problem is: My voice is heard over my speakers when I talk which is creating excess noise for other players. This problem occurs whether I am on Ventrilo/TS or not. All the other players say that they can't hear their voices through their speakers. It has to be something that is checked or unchecked but I believe I have tried almost everything. Some real good help would be appreciated.

It appears that you have just neglected to mute your mixer connection between the microphone input and the speaker output.
If you have the Creative Sound Mixer icon in your task bar double click it. Since you are using your microphone input the "REC" input will show your microphone. Look for a second a microphone logo to the left (blue section). Click on the blue speaker button at the bottom of the volume slider to mute this output. A red cross will appear.
or
If you are using the Windows Mixer double click on its icon. When it opens click on "Options" in the tool bar. Click on properties and then make sure that the "Playback" button is checked. Look down the list of volume controls in the lower half of this window. Make sure that Microphone has a check mark so that this slider will be displayed. Click OK. The Playback slider control window will appear. Check the Mute button on the microphone slider.

Electronic buzz appears every 30 seconds through speaker/phones when audio in use.

1. Probook 4330s bought in August 2011
2. Windows XP
3. No error msg
4. No changes made. No physical damage. Just a few days ago I noticed the buzz -- like a half-second pulse of electronic interference. It appears every 30 seconds and occurs regardless of whether or not the machine is plugged into the wall. It also occurs even when the WiFi is closed. I even put it in the microwave (to shield from RF) and with my cellphones in another room, and it still occurred. I checked for updates to the audio drivers and all were "best version". So ... what to do?
Thanks in advance for any help ...

Hi Crater,
I have had some problems that sound very similar to yours, a sort of buzz/glitch every 30 seconds or so, which you mainly notice when playing audio and/or video. My friend had the same problem, and it only occured after a bios update, but I had an even newer bios, which couldn't be downgraded.
So i got an unused laptop hdd, and installed a new windows on there, to install all the windows and HP updates etc. on there, to see whether it was a bios problem. And it wasn't. But after most of the updates were done, i did get the glitching/buzzing noise.
Using system restore to trace my steps I found out that the HP Power Assistant caused the problems!! So i got rid of it, and the problems were gone. Afterwards i checked it on internet and found more people with this problem (of course THEN you find more people with the same problem, you know, AFTER you've fixed it yourself...), and the way to solve it was to remove the HP Power Assistant software. So, give it a try, it's a pretty useless program anyway in my opinion...
Cheers,
Robert

TS3406 I cannot hear other people when I use my phone. The only way to make a phone call is to use the speaker phone. I have rebooted and restored the phone and still it will not work properly. What is the solution?

I can only use my phone by using the speakerphone. I have rebooted and restored. What is the solution

No case. The issue seemingly went away overnight. I don't know what caused it to occur or what happened to make it go away.

HT201401 My iPhone 4 does not ring only vibrates. I have restored but so luck. All the settings are okay. Ringtones can be heard through the speaker during selection. Please help. Thanks.

I had the same problem. I took the phone to the local tech shop and they replaced a fried headphone flex cable. Cost me $70.

Ipnone 4 only works with speaker phone

I receive calls but cannot hear the caller unless I use the speaker phone
I have rebooted and just reinstalled the latest software and tried plugging and unplugging the headphone jack.
Has anyone experienced this problem and found a fix?
Phone is still under warranty but such a pain as it has to be sent away if its a hardware problem

My fiance is having the same problem. We both got new iPhone 4's from Verizon less than 3 weeks ago. Now her speaker stopped working! She can only talk on speakerphone. Verizon is not allowed to try to fix or replace it and both Apple Stores are over 45 min away!!!!! Makes me happy my laptop is a PC. Appointment at Genius tomorrow. This is a huge inconvenience.

Since update yesterday my speaker phone volume is real low

Since updated my Galaxy 5 on yesterday the speaker phone volume is real low..anyone else experiencing this or know whats going on? I haven't had this phone 3 weeks and now this....

We want to see you enjoying the update on your new phone, stina34. Are ringtones and other audio like music still playing at the same level as before the update? While on a call, have you tried to adjust the volume up and down? Is the call volume when not using speaker phone still at a louder level?
