IOS Update t/ 6.0.1 crashed phone sound?!?!?!

Ok so I had been putting off updating my phone for a bit. But this afternoon I updated to iOS 6.0.1 on a Verizon iPhone 4. It starts back up and everything is great. Until I get a phone call. My upper speaker used for the PHONE portion of the iPHONE no longer works. I have read several forums where Apple Geniuses simply said that the speaker had failed and it needed to be replaced. I refuse to take this kind of cutrate BS service. I got off the phone immediately before I updated and it was working fine. I also have a coworker who had the same problem. So is there anything else I can try to fix besides restore and hard reboot? Hopefully it is something simple that I have overlooked or missed. I would rather feel like an idiot on a free fix than like a rape victim lol because Apple chose to sell a product with inferior quality internals that arent upgradable and want to pass the savings right on along to all of us. Anyways any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Dont Believe In Coincidences

Adding my voice and expanding the conversation a bit.
I have an iPhone 4S, model MC923LL with 32GB storage. I was experiencing very fast battery draining, so I updated the OS to 6.0.1 (10A523).
Here are the symptoms I am experiencing:
Frequent application crashes
Messaging
Settings
Facebook
Camera
Navigation applications
Games
Delay in responding to inputWhile messaging, I type, see the keys highlight, but it takes a few moments to see the text in the box
Physical Heat
The phone is often HOT.
I address this by shutting down applications that have remained resident (double click the home button, then press and hold on an application to make it wiggle, then delete it)
All of this; the symptoms described by John and those I experience seem clearly linked to the upgrade.
I am going to back up my phone, copy my photos and then do restore to see if this addresses the issue.

Restore your iPhone with the backup for your iPhone or as new.

While downloading the latest IOS update to my iPhone 4, my phone went into a frozen state with the update 2/3's complete. It's remained like this for the past 12 hours. I can't turn the phone off, and I can't connect it to iTunes. Anyone know what to do?

If the place of purchase does not have a 'Lemon' policy (three replacements = refund or complete exchange), sadly you are out of luck.
And Apple themselves do not have any power over what policy a reseller uses. You can call Apple Care and have them replace it, but the odds are you would probably get a standard replacement again like has previously happened. I'm pretty sure Apple holds their own sort of 'Lemon' polocy where if it's been replaced three times through them they'll swap it out for a brand new phone. Not 100% sure though, best bet is too call them again.
And it ***** getting a response like that from their support personel, but hey, they can't all be that bad can they? I'm sure if you plead your case they'll try and help out. I've dealt with them in the past and had one or two people that rubbed me the wrong way, but most of them have been a great help and kept me a happy customer, haha.

I had to reset my IPhone 5 after the new IOS 7.2 update because phone calls were not coming through. Now I no longer have the microsphone on the bottom of my key pad to do voice texts.

IPhone 4s new IOS update problem. Itunes not reading phone anymore. Help!

I decided to update my IPhone, since I had the time. Thankfully, I did a back up before doing so. I hit "update" and my phone worked normally through it, until it said "Waiting on IPhone" for quite a few minutes. The screen of my phone also has the Itunes logo with the charge cable (not the USB side). Thinking the phone was saying it wasn't connected anymore (like something was wrong with my cable) and thats why it was taking so long, I unplugged it and plugged it back in. Bad move on my part, as now Itunes will not read my phone, and my phone no longer works properly. It is stuck on the screen I described. I have reset the phone, my computer, and changed cables to no avail. Is there any way to fix this? Or do I need to make an appointment with the Genius Bar?

HT1766 I did the most recent IOS update 7.1.1 and my phone will no longer stay on, other than to show the itunes icon and a picture of the USB cord we use to charge. Verizon is saying there is nothing that can be done because it is stuck in recovery mode

The phone is stuck on that screen once it is turned on and then turns itself right back off. Unfortunately it doesn't appear the phone was backed up on Icloud. The software update came through on my settings and I performed the update, ever since I have lost over a year and a half of information, pictures etc. Any ideas at all would be appreciated.

If you have not set up iCloud backup or backed up using iTunes, all data on the phone was lost once it entered recovery mode.
Your only option is to restore it and start new.

TS2529 iOS update throws phone into recovery mode - HELP

The current iOS update seems to have thrown the phone into recovery mode now requiring restoration through iTunes. Of course I don't have photo stream on and fear losing all my photos. Any way around this?

Reset, hold both the home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart. If this works great. If not you may have to Restore the iPhone to get it working again. If you decide to do this you may even have to use DFU Mode to Restore. Here are the steps for DFU. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time. If the iPhone screen is black, blank this is DFU Mode. Click the Restore button of iTunes.

HT1430 how i restart iphone 5s which get off during ios update?

ow i restart iphone 5s which get off during ios update?

Try to force your phone into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. If you can't turn it off, please continue. Press and hold the home button while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. Continue holding the Home button while iPhone starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 for details.
Then you can restore your phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

IOS 8.1.3 safari crashing, phone constantly freezing, & battery drain

i updated my iPhone 6 to iOS 8.1.3 last night and I literally can't even use safari. Every time I open safari it crashes and closes. If by some miracle it does open, it closes after a few minutes. Everything keeps freezing too. Like if I can manage to get safari open for a minute, if I try to type in the address bar, it will just freese up and then safari will crash and close. Also my battery is draining significantly fast now. What the **** apple?! I can't even restore my phone because I'm traveling in Canada and if I restore it it will not be able to activate through my cellular carrier since my carriee doesn't exist in Canada (I'm roaming). is anyone having these issues and/or have a fix for them? My phone is literally not useable.

I did not mention in my earlier post that the LTE network too seemed to be slow/sluggish.
Kept looking for a solution and found this post which seems to help.
Mobile data extremely slow after iOS update 8.1.3
I hope it helps you too.
