IPhone 2G voice mic not working

Has anyone come across iPhone 2G voice mic not working (not being heard by the other person) but works fine on speaker phone and bluetooth headset. It has been working fine so far and suddenly developed this problem! Any help is highly appreciated….

I had that problem with my iPhone 3G after about 5 days.
I just had Apple take a look at it.
They cleaned it out, called it and stuff.
Didn't work.
Since I didn't drop it in water and it was not my fault in any way, they gave me a brand new one.

    Well, what happens when you try to use it. That would help in the troubleshooting. Have you contacted your cellular carrier? Voicemail is a carrier function.

  • IPhone 6 External Mic not working for Siri/Dictation

    I am finding that the external mic on my iPhone 6 works for phone calls and voice memos, but does not work for Siri/Dictation.  When I plug in the earbuds, they work for everything (including Siri/Dictation).
    Was chatting to Apple support who had me reset all settings.  I thought that worked, but realized that after a reset, Siri is off and I was talking to "Voice control" (which works).  When I turned Siri back on, it does not work.
    I have two questions for the community to see if you can help:
    1- I have been assuming this must be a software problem since the mic does work for non-Siri access.  But is that true?  Is there a hardware component that Siri depends on which could be faulty here?
    2- If it is software, what action should I try to address it?  I have done a reset all settings already and that did not help.

    Hi, everyone.  I talked to Apple Genius at Apple Store last week, she said it should be a software issue and I needed to reset my iphone 6 plus as a new device and I can not use the backup restore from my iCloud, it was because the microphone bug or glitch can be in the backup also. Ok, followed her advice, erased all contents and set my iphone as a new device , the microphone worked for an hour, but went bad again.  I used "voice memo" app from Apple to test the microphone. It is the best tool since it doesn't involve any provider's network and it doesn't need another person's phone to listen and test.  If you can hear your voice recording clearly, then the mic works.  I tested it 3-4 times a day for a few days now, half of the time the mic doesn't work.  So, set as a new device isn't working. The issue is intermittent and it comes and goes as it likes, so very annoying. I carry my Apple EarPods with me in these past few days ust in case I need to make important phone calls.  Will need to go back to Apple Genius this weekend for sure.  Will give update after the weekend.

  • IPhone 4 Voice Memos not working/saving

    Hi there,
    I'm having trouble with my voice memos too. Up until yesterday they were working fine and now, even though the record button works, the stop button does not and I can only pause them. Worse again is that the button to go into the menu to view all voice memos is not working so I can't play them from my iPhone and nothing new is saving to my iTunes. Please help!

    I've always had the "Include Voice Memos" option selected. I think that only pertains to syncing voice memos from iTunes to the iPhone after it has been copied to iTunes. It has to be the new OS/iTunes not communicating that new memos have been recorded. For some reason they won't sync when I want them to, and then a few syncs later they magically appear.
    By the way, I'm VERY comfortable with the iTunes and iPhone systems. I've been using iTunes for 5 years, and I've been recording class lectures with the iPhone voice memo app (and another app) for a couple years. It's not an error of not seeing that the memos were added; they don't exist in my library or music folders.
    JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY, POST WHICH FIRMWARE YOU ARE RUNNING EXACTLY!!!
    I'm on an iPhone 4, running firmware 4.0.1

  • Iphone 6 voice recognition not working

    I have an iphone 6 and have had it since October 2014.  For about a month now, the voice recognition option does not work.  I like to use it rather than texting, and emails when I'm on the go and it's frustrating that I can't figure out what's wrong.  I have looked through other threads to try and figure out what else I might do.  So far I've:
    rebooted (hard reset)
    double checked that all my settings are correct re Siri and voice recognition
    checked that it is not a problem with earphones v. no earphones.  Doesn't appear to make any difference
    Siri doesn't work either
    Checked the microphone to make sure it's not blocked or something
    I can use the phone feature just fine. 
    It just seems to be the voice recognition feature that doesn't want to cooperate.  If you have any ideas please let me know!
    I'm taking it to the Apple Store next week since I have run out of my own ideas... Thanks!

  • IPhone-4 Voice Control not working properly

    I'm facing trouble with the iphone-4 voice control. Its not correctly recognizing my voice commands. When I ask it to call a specific phone number it never dials the correct number, I have notice that it happens for some specific numbers when asked to dial. Also , songs are also sometime not correctly recognized and a wrong songs/album starts playing. But, when I tried same phone numbers or songs playing command on a Google Powered android phone..it recognizes all voice commands correctly and works perfectly fine. I think apple needs to fix this issue..right now the voice control ***** big time

    I'm getting this too. It's very slow and apparently thinks "Call Sue Newport" sounds like "Call Halfords" or "Call Halyards" and, most surprisingly "Call First Great Western".
    I was wearing my Jawbone Bluetooth headset so it's nothing to do with background noise.
    I tried the new "What time is it?" command which works but takes about 10-15 seconds to activate.

  • Iphone 4 Voice Control not working Properly after iCloud Contacts sync

    Hi All,
    I am facing a strange problem. Recently I enabled iCloud settings to sync contacts from my iPhone to iCloud.
    It asked me that do I want to merge the contacts from iCloud onto this iPhone. Obviously I clicked yes.
    What it did was actually not sync all but around 1/3 of my contact list and erasing the remaining. The other 2/3 of my contact list wasn't on both iCloud or iPhone.
    So I decided to restore my iPhone from the backup i took just before enabling iCloud. But I forgot to switch off the iCloud settings for not syncing Contacts.
    Although I recovered all my contacts from the backup, my voice control has stopped recognizing my remaining 2/3 of the contact list that did not actually sync.
    It can recognize all the contacts that were synced with iCloud, but not the ones that got erased.
    After backup restore, iCloud settings was switched to off state and I did not dare enabling it back on.
    Has anyone observed this behaviour? I just cannot seem to get the voice control recognize the remaining 2/3 contacts at all. I tried renaming the contact that it recognized to some other name and it still does not recognize the new ones.
    Please help me find out the reason for this  and how can i fix it?

  • IPhone 5: Voice Memos not working in iOS 6.1.4

    I updated my iPhone 5 and suddenly my voice memos app doesn't work. When I click on it, it loads the microphone icon then closes and goes back to the main screen.  Can anyone help on this issue?

    For iphon 5 after the last update, to listen to your recored voice memos, you have to tab the speaker symbol on the upper right corner of the file page. You can also use the bluetooth or headphone to listen to your recordings.

  • Ipod mic not working

    My Ipod 5th Gen mic not working

    - Make sure the mic hole is clear and unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back by the camera lens(if has back camera). For the 16 GB one without the back camera the mic hole is on the top edge near the center.
      - Open the Voice Memos app and see if you see movement on the VU meter needle with changes in noise level trying to be recorded
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    When I detected the issue software version was 4.3.3, And Then I updated software to 4.3.4. Still the issue remains.
    I tried several time restarting. No advantage
    After all I deleted all my content by resetting from phone and iTunes, bothways.
    Now my phone content looks like new iPhone and software is 4.3.4 and
    Still the MIC not working only on a phone call
    Unbelievable.
    I went to more than 3 apple dealers in Dubai, like istore,protech.. All they refused service for iPhone.
    They dont have service for iPhone, but they selling and are autherized reseller,
    My phone still under warranty.

  • X220 Internal Mic not working

    I had just get a new X220 in recent days.
    And I found the internal mic not working, I can not record any sound through Sound Record or Skype.
    I had tried all the following methods, but the mic still can not working. Anyone cound give me some suggestion ?
    1) update sound card driver to 8.32.23.2
    2) Fn+F6,  change between "only my voice" or "Multiple voice"
    4) UnInstall source card driver and use microsoft generic driver
    3) The method in http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T420-internal-mic-problem/td-p/435551/page/..., operate like :
       Start -> control Panel -> Sound
    Click on the "Recording" tab
    Click Internal Microphone to highlight it
    Click Properties
    Click the "Advanced" tab
    Uncheck "Enable audio enhancements"
    Finally, click the "Levels" tab and turn Microphone Boost to 0dB. (if you don't do this the noise will be even louder than before).
    Click apply.

    hey kitewind,
    welcome to the forums and since you have tested the microphone using microsoft generic drivers and i'm guessing it did not work; therefore the best action for you right now is to contact our tech support group via

  • Iphone 4 Alerts Tones Not Working / Ringer Is WORKING KINDLY REPLY ME

    HI , PLEASE HELP ME I WANT TO FIX THIS ISSUE THAT I AM GETTING PLEASE HELP
    MY ISSUE IS IPHONE 4 ALERTS TONES NOT WORKING AND CALL RINGER IS WORKING.. PLEASE HELP ME!

    If the iPhone came from the US then it is locked to AT&T. To unlock an iPhone the original carrier is the only one who can unlock the iPhone and AT&T will not unlock iPhones. So there is not official way to unlock the iPhone 4.
    At this point there is no way to hack the iPhone 4 running 4.2.1 to unlock it either so the phone and messaging apps will never work. You basically have an iPod touch.
