IPhone 3GS Mic Volume Low

Hi,
Whenever I am talking on my iphone 3GS (running 3.1.3) , the second party always tells me that I sound "far" as if I am talking from a tunnel.
Is anybody experiencing that?
Thanks,

I get the same problem with my 3GS. People tell me that I sound very quiet when I call them. I've recently updated to iOS 4.0.1 with no change.
I have to be honest and say that I'm not very impressed with my iPhone in terms of it being a phone. I generally have to turn off 3G to get decent reception and not get dropped calls. My contract lasts for another 12 months, but I'll be seriously considering a HTC phone running Android when it's due for renewal.

IPHONE 3gs Mic is lower side

I got a iphone 3gs two weeks ago.this is the very first time I am using apple product. so far phone is better only thing is it s mic is low
( not that bad but not perfect ) I am running ios 6 .0.1 and modem firmware 05.16.07 .
any suggestion guys ? really appreciate...................

Don't quite understand what you need. If mic placement on the phone is the issue, it is on the bottom edge of the case. Since this was problematic, the product has evolved and now the i5 has three mics, two below and one behind for better reception and noise cancellation.
If the mic VOLUME is the issue, then you're gonna have to speak louder. The earpiece volume is adjustable, but the mic reception volume adjustment is automatic.

IPhone 3GS mic volume

Hi,
Any idea how to (or is it possible) to adjust the mic volume on the 3GS? My callers have been complaining that I'm talking very softly, they can hardly hear me, even when I'm almost to the point of shouting. I switched back to my Sony phone and it's ok. Mic volume became worse when I use my Motorola H710 bluetooth headset with the 3GS.
Any help?
Thanks.

Good idea, but i'm sure apple doesn't allow applications to access something like that... i too have a major problem with volume being super quiet on speakerphone and earpiece phone. Even at full volume it is hard to hear people even when i am somewhere quiet, forget being able to hear people if i am somwhere even slightly noisy!
Phones should be designed so that when you are at mid volume it is good for 90% of all situations, turning it way up or way down should only be required for very rare noisy/quiet situations. Running at full blast all the time is crazy....

My volume on the Iphone 3GS is very low is it an equipment problem, setting problem or update problem?

My volume on the iPhone 3GS is very low. Is it an equipment problem, settings problem or update problem? And, is there a fix other than having Apple fix it?

Have you had a look here to make sure it is set up how you want it...

IPhone 3GS Audio Volume Decrease After iOS 5 Update

The Audio/Volume on my iPhone 3GS has Decrease SIGNIFICANTLY After iOS 5 Update. Oddly, the volume of the ring is fine, and as lout as it used to be, and as loud as all other audio should be, but when using any 3rd party applications, the volume output is significantly less (about 40% less) than it used to be.
I am NOT the only person to experience this problem. Apparently, the issue has been around since this past summer, when iOS was still being developed / tested. There is a post about someone experiencing the same issue, here:
http://modmyi.com/forums/general-iphone-chat/768919-ios-5-low-volume.html
And before you ask .. I did a language change and reset, and I am still experiencing the SAME issue.
Any help or advice with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
In advance, thank you.

I have a similar or related problem with iOS5/3GS and volume:

In my case I can hear nothing from the internal speakers although I can use headphones. The volume slider bar is unavailable unless I plug in headphones.

Iphone 6 facetime - volume low on receiving end

iphone 6 facetime issue: low volume on receiving end.
I can hear the other person loud and clear. The receiving end can barely hear me.
Other apps like Skype is fine.

Hi dragon eye,
Did you follow the troubleshooting steps in that article?
Follow these steps, testing after each with Voice Memos.
Unplug anything plugged into the headset jack.
If you're on a call and holding your phone next to your ear, speak into the microphone and make sure you don't block it with your fingers or shoulder.
If you're using a screen protector or case that covers the microphone, remove it. Clear any debris from the microphones.
Restart your device.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
If you've tried these steps and people still can't hear you well on calls, contact Apple Support.
If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Take care,
Alex H.

Iphone 3gs video volume

i have just bought a 3gs iphone.i dont know much about is feature.
my question is, when i make video it doesnot record volume. i come to know about it when i play video it plays video only no sound comes out.
please advise what i am doing wrong or is there any sound recording setting?
please advise
thanks

I restarted the 3GS as noted in other posts. I got marginally better volume on the recording. When playing in Quicktime and Quicktime 7, the volume is low, even when turning the player and computer volumes up. Ear phones help.
When playing the video in VLC Media Player the sound is acceptable - but it displays only Landscape.
I just bought a Joby Gorilla GS that holds the 3GS on its tripod. Cool! The case has a mounting attachment and they supply two additional adhesive clips. It is worth looking at. I have no relationship with any of the parties. I have been looking for a tripod mount for my Nano 5th Gen and my 3GS.

Iphone 3gs stuck in low battery.

hi
yesterday my iphone stuck in buttery logo and when i connected to my computer it stuck in apple logo
please help me i have tried everything in internet

"I have tried everything on the internet" doesn't tell us anything. Please be specific so we don't waste time suggesting things you've already done.
Also, info such as iOS, iTunes and computer OS versions is useful. Is this phone jailbroken?

3GS speaker volume low

Any ideas why? The ringtones and speaker volume seem very quiet. FYI using 4.1.2 and volume is MAX. cheers.

Okay, for the record, the problem was dirt in the speaker, which was blocking it and muffling the sound. I managed to open the case (thank you Youtube) and get in their with compressed air, which managed to blow out whatever junk was in there. It made a huge difference. So that was it!

IPhone 3gS problem

Hey guys,
I've got a problem with an iPhone 3gS, the volume bar in the 'iPod app' doesn't respond properly, The bar moves but the volume doesn't change. Tried resetting and that didn't work. The only thing that worked for a short time was turning it off or syncing it. I then sent it in for repair and got a replacement but a couple of days later the problems came back and it's now alot worse.
Does anyone have a clue on how to solve this?
Cheers,

How are you listening? Via headphones, then internal speaker, or a dock? If it's a dock, in some cases output is controlled only by the dock system, not the iPhone itself.

How do I get rid of a white screen on an iPhone 3GS?

My iPhone 3GS was running low on battery so I plugged it into my car charger. I checked on it a few minutes later and when I pressed the Home button, only got a white screen (like a flashlight app but don't have one). I tried to power it off, but couldn't. When I got home, I plugged it into my laptop and it synced as if nothing was wrong but I still have a white screen.

IPhone 3GS stuck in recovery mode unable to restore

Hello,
My iPhone 3GS was running low in battery and then it went off on its own. Plugged into car charger, usually I would see the charging sign but curiously not this time. Unable to turn on the phone, it's all black. Got home and plug into the computer and it said that it's in recovery mode and it needed to be restored. Attempted to restore but kept on getting unable to restore due to error (21). Did a quick search and have done the followings; (updated all softwares, turned off computer, check USB wire, turned off firewall, created new user, used a different computer....) still unable to restore. screen would turn to white blank screen. Called Apple Support and they had me tried everything again and still nothing. Please help...

took it to Apple Store and they gave me a new one..

Nope. Can't say that it does. I think I have about 100 charge cycles on it and it still performs like near new. How long have you had your 3GS?
