IPhone 4: Speaker and mic grills aligned?

Hello there,
Probably the stupid question of the day but since I have just bought a brand new iPhone 4 (first Apple gadget here ) I am quite worried (and very OCD about it).
The question is: Are speaker and mic grills perfectly aligned at the botton of the iPhone 4? 
My iPhone 4 has both grills slightly tilted and I dont know if I have moved because of cleaning or it is a normal issue / position...
I have been checking lots of Iphone 4 at Google Images and I cannot check it properly...
Thank you so much in advance for your input and again, sorry for the stupid question.

Thank you gdgmacguy,
The problem is that it is not exactly a problem itself, but just an upseting view of the grills a little (very little) tilted.
If I bring the iPhone 4 to the Apple Store I could be hitted with the phone in my head by the man at the Genious bar ... 
Thats why I would like to know how the rest of us have their speaker / mic grills
Maybe I should focus on my OCD...

  • The only time the sound/speaker and mic don't work is when I answer or make a call

    The only time the sound/speaker and mic don't work is when I answer or make a call. They both work fine for everything else. This has been going on for over a month. AT&T said it's Apple and Apple said it's AT&T. I've been around that cycle twice. 
    When I dial a call, I can see the status words on the screen but can't hear the ringing. If the person I'm calling answers, my screen will show the call was connected and the call timer will begin but I can't hear anything and they can't hear me. If one of us doesn't end the call, the timer keeps going and I'm being 'charged' for dead air. (Of course, one of us disconnects so mins/cost isn't an issue, I'm just adding the info in case it helps solve the problem.) If they don't answer, the call will go to their greeting but I can't hear it and wouldn't be able to leave a message anyway because my voice isn't going through. However, they will get a voice mail alert and see that I called but no message was recorded.
    If some one tries to call me they will hear ringing but when I answer, they can't hear me and I can't hear them. If I don't answer, they will hear my greeting and can leave a message. I can retrieve and hear my voice mail. Trying speaker phone and headsets didn't change anything for calls out nor for calls in. 
    I have 4.3.3 and have synched, reset, rebooted, turned things on and off and off and on and took the SIM card out of the phone and out of it's tray and put it back in. I've done all that several times in just about every combination and order possible. 
    Hopefully the following will provide good clues:  On only about three of the many attempts I've made to get it to work correctly that included taking out the SIM card, I could make and/or get one or two calls with no trouble but then the problem comes back. Also, when I swapped the SIM card with another iPhone4 on my plan, the other phone would work with my SIM card but my phone still would not work with the other SIM card. The last fact makes me think it is an Apple issue. I'll go to an Apple store (genius) this weekend. Will I be wasting my time and gas? Anybody have any experience with this problem?

    Let me try and address some of your questions.  I'm only on a pc, so a few of these answers might be slightly different on a Mac, but not too different (such as control click rather than right click).
    First, when you buy something on your phone, be it apps or music, it's transferred from your phone to your Mac when you sync your phone.  So those apps should now be in you iTunes library. ( IF for some reason you can't find them there, you should be able to download them again, either onto your phone or through iTunes.  On your phone, go to the App Store > Updates and you'll see a "Purchased" link at the top of the page, you can view all purchased apps here and redownload them.  In iTunes, you can go to Store > Check for available downloads. )
    Whenever you plug your phone in, it should create a backup of everything you have on the phone.  This is how, provided restoring your phone as a new device doesn't fix the issue (more on this later), you can put all of your music and apps onto the new phone.  You can always plug your phone into your Mac and the first thing it should do when it syncs is create a backup.   If you want to be sure, you can right click on your device in iTunes (on a pc) or I assume control click on a Mac and select "backup".
    The genius will take care of the sim card and setting up your phone, however you will have to put all of your music and apps on it, unless you ask the genius, I've never bothered since I know how to do this.
    You should have no problems restoring from a backup if they give you a new phone.  However, it's probably safest to try and create a backup of your last phone backup before you restore it as a new device.   I suggest you refer to http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414 for more information about that.
    I've had no problems with my new phone so far.
    I'll try to keep checking this thread if you have any other questions or need more clarification.
    Edit: I should say we never did figure out what exactly was wrong with my phone.  The only thing I can think of was that it got a lot hotter than the phone it replaced, and also the phone I just got yesterday to replace the malfunctioning one.  But otherwise they saw no problems with the hardware, but acknowledged it must have been the hardware since we tried everything else.  Also I would go with a list of all the things you tried with this phone, for your own reference and the genius's, especially if you're not confident in your tech skills Showing the genius that you've tried: different sim cards, updating the software, restoring it from a backup, and now restoring it as a new device, should convince them that you've done everything you could, and the only other answer is hardware problem.
    Also if you don't already have one, make a genius appointment ASAP.  Most stores are very busy and their appointments fill up fast.  I always suggest making an appointment as early as possible, hopefully before the retail store hours when they've only got techs there because they usually are less stressed and have a bit more time to spend with you.  The easiest way to make an appointment is to download the Apple Store app.  It detects the closest Apple store from you and makes it quite easy to schedule a genius.

  • Sound Blaster Omni 5.1 - mute speaker and mic with single button push

    Does anyone know if its possible configure the Omni to mute both speakers and the Omni's internal mic with a single button push using the hardware volume/mute button on the Omni. I have a scenario where i need to mute both quickly when a call comes in and its a nuisance having to mute the speakers and mic separately.

    Hi Tony,
    Unfortunately there is no physical button to achieve that. Neither is there a software button to disable both speakers and mic at the same time.
    Regards,

  • Cleaning iPhone 4 Speaker and Microphone?

    I use an apple sock to protect and carry around my IP4 in. Due to the material, some fluff has gotten stuck in the mesh of the speaker and the microphone at the bottom, either side of the dock connecter. What's my best bet to clean this? Would it be to take it to Apple and get them to do it? (My phone's only a month old) or should I use something like a paintbrush and do it myself?
    Thanks,
    Anil

    Use tweezers and/or a vacuum.

  • My new iPhone 4S has hearing problem.speaker and headphone works very good.However using handset to make and receive calls I cannot hear anything?I did restore the phone and removed the plastic.Is there any solution to this problem please?

    I am having heraing problem with iPhone 4S.Speaker and headphone works well.No echo.When I use handset to receive or make calls,I can't hear anything?I restore the phone and removed the plastic as well.Is there anyway to fix this problem?

    I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
    Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
    Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
    But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
    Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?

  • Iphone 4s microphone, speaker and ear jack doesn't work.

    Noticed hissing on speaker when trying to use the microphone feature on texting, and a couple of days later the microphone, speaker or earphones do not work.  Can't hear ringtones and can barely feel the vibration for a notification of a message.  I can place a call, but the receiver doesn't hear me or I them.  Called verizon support to no avail.  The phone is only a year and a half old.  Anyone no anything about this?  I didn't drop it or get it wet.  It's been in a heavy duty otterbox since I bought it.

    Hi gary,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with the sound on your iPhone.
    I would suggest removing the iPhone from the Otterbox and trying these troubleshooting steps:
    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 (choose Settings > 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.
    iPhone: Sound muffled or low from the speaker or when speaking into the mic
    Check the volume setting on your iPhone. You can adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down buttons on the left side of the iPhone.
    If you are using a third-party iPhone case, make sure it is not covering the speaker, microphone, or top microphone. Try making some calls without the case to see if a caller can now hear you more clearly or play music to see if the speaker's volume is better.
    If you have not removed the plastic display film used for protection during shipment, either ensure that the microphone and speaker are not covered or remove the film completely.
    Check that the speaker, microphone mesh covers, and top microphone hole are not clogged with lint or other debris.
    If the speaker, microphone mesh, or top microphone (iPhone 4 only) appear clogged, please use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to clean them. To do this follow these instructions:
    Use the brush to carefully and gently brush the speaker and microphone mesh.
    Brush away from the 30-pin dock connector to avoid getting any debris into the dock connector.
    If the issue persists, go to: apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq/ for information on service.
    Hope this helps!

  • White iPhone 4 has extra speaker or mic?

    Hey, has anyone noticed from pictures of the white iphone 4 that it has an extra slot with dots on top above the hearing speaker that the black does not? Look here: http://www.wcbs880.com/pages/7758297.php?
    I also looked at apple.com at the white iphone that can not be ordered and it looks to also have that extra speaker or mic. What is that? Why does black phone not have that? Is it the improved iphone4 before black problems by customers where reported. why is it different?

    This is correct. It is the proximity sensor for the iPhone. The black one has the sensor in the same spot, it is just difficult to see because of the dark coloring.

    Accidental damage is not covered under the warranty but if possible to reset the screen without causing additional damage, the Apple Store should do this without charging for it.

  • HT4061 i us iphon in syria and i have problem in the mic how can you help me

    i us iphon in syria and i have problem in the mic how can you help me

    Try to Reset it (hold down the home and sleep buttons, ignore the red off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons).
    If that does not work try Restoring it in iTunes.
    Still no go? You will need to get it serviced.

  • I have a sign of a little lock on the top of my iPhone 4 screen and therefore I am not able to hear from the people who call me unless that I switch the speaker on. What should I do

    I have a sign of a little lock on the top of my iPhone 4 screen and therefore I am not able to hear from the people who call me unless that I switch the speaker on. What should I do

    The little lock has nothing to do with speaker volume.  It means you have locked the rotation on your iPhone.
    Have you tried using the volume control on the side of the iPhone to raise the volume when someone calls?

  • I connected my iphone 5 to a bluetoooth speaker and I accidentally forgot the device. How can I reconnect to the device?

    Press and hold the power button till the light (blue) flashes rapidly
    Then the speaker is in discoverable mode.

  • My 3GS keeps switching between iPhone speaker and Dock connector and I don't know how to keep it on iPhone speaker

    My 3GS keeps switching between iPhone speaker and Dock connector and I don't know how to keep it on iPhone speaker so I can listen to my music and games.  Is it hardware or software problem?

    I was told by a friend that sometimes when you use a 3rd party charger that the connectors are not the same size and so it can affect the sensors in the phone and make it seem like it is in a docking station and so changes the output for dock speakers.  With that said, I didn't take my pohone in to be serviced at the appple store because it was a 3GS and over 2 years old and so not covered by any service plan.  Since then my phone is back to normal and I can use my headphones and listen with the speakers on the phone.  I stoped using the suspected cheap 3rd party charger and maybe that's what did it, but not sure if it was or wasn't the cause of my problem.  I'm glad that my phone is better I was kinda holding out for the Iphone 5 when i comes out later and hope my phone lasted until then.
