Iphone 4s outgoing calls garbled

As of yesterday when I make a call on my iphone 4s the person on the other end can't hear me because the sound is garbled. I can hear them fine. The phone is about 2 months old.
I've used dust-off in the mic but that hasn't helped. Anyone know what's up?
Thanks,
Eileen

I recently moved on to iPhone 5 but when I used my 4S, it had that issue some times when the network would be weak. Try testing it out in an area of strong cellular network and if the phone still does that there could be an issue with the way the micro sim is sitting in the sim tray or perhaps with the iPhone hardware itself. A trip to Apple store is in order for a genius to check your phone out (assuming you access to a retail store that is). Good luck.

IPhone 5s, Outgoing calls makes connection, no voice

iPhone 5s - Outgoing calls makes connection, no voice.

Just spent the morning trying to resolve this problem. If you want good support, Apple support is not the place to go: See the following. My phone is working now, but the support received from Apple was of no help.
There
are limited places to post the following comment so here it is: Contacted apple
support today for Iphone 5c issue (phone would not make outgoing calls,
intermittent and when there was a connection, receiving party could not hear me
unless I was on
speaker. After contacting my service provider, resetting my phone and checking
problems with service, they connected me to Apple support. Apple called me and
gathered my information, cell number I was calling from (not my cell with
problem). We worked through some possible issues and then she said she was
going to call my cell to check connectivity. She proceeds to hang up on the
call we were on and attempts to call my cell. My cell was not working properly,
hence my call was made from a different phone. Support person can not reach me
through my celll ( because it was not working properly) instead of contacting
me back on the number I gave her in case we were disconnected, she leaves a
message for me to call Apple support back to resolve the problem and she was
going to add to the ticket that we were disconnected. Oh and she neglected to
leave me a call back number so that didn't help much. Didn't give me a ticket
number. I use to love apple. I guess you either love them or hate them. I now
hate them and will tell everyone that they have the worst support I have ever
encountered. I have seen many issues with Apple phones whenever someone updates
their IOS as recommended. If you want anything more than sub par support I
would suggest you go anywhere except Apple. Posting on as many social media
sites as I can, since this is the only source I have to complain. Not that
these complaints will be taken seriously.

IPhone 5s outgoing call list unknown random phone numbers

I got a call from a friend yesterday, when I hung up it was a different phone number that what they had called me when I picked up the phone. I checked my outgoing phone call list and there are a bunch of phone numbers from all over the country. What is going on, the phone I got a week ago brand new from the local verizon store.

Had same issue as other weak and dropped calls. Sent me new phone but there ** means I will need to go to the store which I dread. Cannot remove sim card with paper clip. Geez I have had it with this upgrade!

IPhone 4S - Outgoing call no audio

Picked up a Verizon iPhone 4S - 32GB and on about 1 in 10 calls I get no outbound audio when dialing. Call shows the timer counting as if the call is progressing but absolutely no ring back and cannot hear the party on the other end when they answer.
Anyone else having this issue? I've found a few forums online stating people have had luck hitting the speaker button on and off to get it working again but it hasn't failed in the past 20 minutes for me to test that theory..
Thanks...

What I have figured out is that when this happens, if you use Siri once, it will "reset" the audio out. I have confirmed it twice.
So please try that the next time you are stuck with no audio out. Use Siri, and see if the audio works after that. And report back your results so everyone else can benefit from it.
Thanks everyone.

IPhone 4S Outgoing call no audio,can anyone help me ?

on about 1 in 10 calls I get no outbound audio when dialing. Call shows the timer counting as if the call is progressing but absolutely no ring back and cannot hear the party on the other end when they answer.
i started use my iphone 4s on 23th Dec,
Hopefully it can be fixed with a patch, but at this point, Apple hasn't even acknowledged that it's a known issue (at least not to me).

IPhone Outgoing Voice Garbled on 3G and EDGE

About 3 days ago, I started to experience an issue with my 3G iPhone running 2.2 software. On incoming and outgoing calls I can hear the person on the other end but my voice is garbled and/or filled with a lot of static. This occurs on both the AT&T EDGE and 3G networks with and without the factory-provided headset. However, if I switch the speakerphone function on, both parties can hear each other normally. What I thought was particularly interesting is that when I use Truphone to make a VoIP call, everything functions normally as well. While I first thought that this could be some sort of hardware issue, the last test made it seem more along the lines of a software problem. I have powered on/off the phone, rebooted the phone, restored it to backup and restored to a new phone all with the same result. Has anyone else experienced this issue and been able to resolve it? I have an appointment at the Genius Bar on Friday but am hoping to be able to resolve this on my own.
Thanks.

I was just posting this same problem on Mac Rumors. I'll paste the text here:
+Yesterday morning, I receive a call on my iPhone. I answer and they can't hear me. I hang up thinking it's a bad connection and dial them back. Same thing happens. I can hear them just fine, but they can't hear me.+
+1. I do the hard reset.+
+2. I do a full restore. Same problem. The only thing the other person can hear is a little bit of digital noise, like a swirly sound.+
+3. I call AppleCare and we go through the list of potential fixes. Nothing works. They send me to the Apple Store.+
+At the Apple Store, the Genius Bar guy knows the problem before I even finish describing it. He says, "I've seen this problem nine times today, so I am thinking it's an AT&T issue. But just to narrow down the problem, let's replace your hardware."+
+He replaces the phone with a new one and it works fine. So I go home and it works the rest of the day.+
+This morning, I get to the office and the same problem is happening again.+
+I know there are others on this forum who have experienced the same problem. But if it is happening to everyone at the same time, would it be an AT&T problem or an Apple problem?+
+If it's an Apple problem, replacing the phone should have worked. But if it's an AT&T problem, it should happen across the board, and not to just nine people that day. That Genius Bar guy would have been bombarded with angry iPhone owners.+
+Does anyone have any helpful insight on this problem (saying "AT&T *****" isn't helpful insight)+
+UPDATE: (January 7, 2009, 9:30am) I am on hold with Apple Tech support and they are trying to find a solution. As an experiment, we tried turning 3G off and it worked. Obviously, not a long-term solution, but effective for getting a call to go through.+
+Any other input? I will update this thread if I receive a helpful fix from Apple or AT&T. These threads aren't any help unless there is a solution posted.+

IPhone 5 incoming calls/outgoing calls

Sometimes when I answer to a phone call on my iPhone 5, I hear my own voice instead of the voice of the person whos calling. This also happens on outgoing calls. How can you explain this? Whats happening?

I have the exact same problem, I can't hear anyone and they can't hear me. It happened right after I updated my iPhone 5 to the iOS 7.1.1 version. Could that be the problem? I hope apple fixes this update right away.

IPhone 5 outgoing and incoming SMS works but incoming calls do not work. The dialler gets message this number is not in available in network.

New I phone outgoing calls as well incoming SMS works but can not receive incoming calls. Caller gets the number does not exist in network.

Like Superman, here I am to save the day! I can help you with your service in your home area dizzymslizzie. Let's start with what zip code are you in? Can I assume that there isn't any physical or liquid damage on the iPhone 5? Recently, there has been an update to the iPhone to iOS 7. If you have done this update then please provide the exact carrier version that's installed. Keep in mind that there is a difference in device performance between iOS 7 and the iOS 7 beta version. As you share this info, I will check the area to re-affirm that the issue is or is not network related.
Thank you...

Not all carriers allow that to be set using preferences in the phone. Contact your carrier.

IPhone 4s 6.1.3 problems with 3g,In and Outgoing Calls

Hi Everybody!
I got a factory unlocked (originally was Vodafon locked) iPhone 4s with firmware 6.1.3.When I insert my sim (Hungarian Telenor) when only EDGE is on it founds the signal and seems like everything is working.After a few hours or sometimes even a day passes by a phone stays on full signal with Carrier logo and Edge on, but my friends reporting that they cant call me(like im offline) and i cant make calls either.The interresting stuff is that the Edge connection is fully working during that im offline for my friends via Calls and i can send and recieve imessages and viber messages.
When i switch 3g on it disconnects from service drops the EDGE and never finds the way back and stays 'searching' or 'no service' at all..
I thought that its my Carrier's fault so i went to spoke with them and tried 5different micro Sims( cause i wrote that 4s-s are sensitive to SIM card types).. this thing not worked either,
Then i tried the phone with a T-mobile SIM card.. it does the same..connects to the services,but with 3g switched on not finding service..so totally like with my sim.
Here Comes the bumm... i Tried the phone with vodafone sim and everything works.. simple connectivity to 3g with full internet usage,can make and recieve calls...I spoked with all of the Carriers and also Apple and no body can give me nothing..the phone is off varranty so changed to a new one isnt an option..
Anybody? Something? im beginning to give up .. please help if you can..Thanks!!
ps.:i restored over 20times,reset network settings,switch off and on automatic setting time.. every little possible things that people wrote on forums before..

1. Settings > General > About - Carrier sais Carrier 14.0 when i restore and startup with my Telenor sim.. ..
1. In order
2. ...... everyone is pointing on the other and i cant do anything about it..just the whole 3g/call failed stuff is bothering me...
2. It appears configuration issue. I use three iPhones (in my family) on four unsupported carriers. Never had any problem except on one. Outgoing calles to one particular party failed. Set right by Carrier.
3. Is there something like the Unlock process was not fully succesfull...
3. Never heard. It is digital : Yes or No. In the instant case, unlock is successful.
Download firmware afresh via iTunes or from here iPhone4,1_6.1.3_10B329_Restore.ipsw
and save. Insert Telenor SIM in the iPhone. Backup. Option+Restore (Mac) Shift+Restore (PC) pointing to saved firmware. Reject Carrier updates, if any offered by iTunes. Setup as New.

Help me! After updating my iphone 3g is no longer able to call. Outgoing calls are completely silent for the recipient

Help me! After updating my iphone 3g is no longer able to call!!
Outgoing calls can be made but the recipient does not feel anything. I own a phone that is useless!

First try Resetting it: Hold down the home and sleep button, ignore the red OFF slider, wait for the Apple logo then let go.
If that does not work, Restore your iPhone in iTunes from your backup.
If that still does not fix it, Restore your iPhone and a new phone (not from backup) and see how it works. If it is doing fine you have a app you are using that is probably causing your problem. Load them one and a time until the problems recur and you will have found the one that is a problem.

I just bought this iPhone 4S second hand and during incoming and outgoing calls I can't hear the other person talk unless it's on speaker or if I have headphones in. I don't know what to do I've turned up my volume and checked my settings!! Need help

I Just bought a second hand iPhone 4S I am having issues with the hearing during incoming and outgoing calls, I have turned the volume up and checked my settings but I still have trouble hearing the other person speak. It works if it's on speaker or if I have headphones plugged in. I need help desperately!!!!! Any suggestions on what to do???

Hey Itsanaasaunders,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues hearing sound while on a call (receiver wise, not speakerphone). The following resource provides troubleshooting steps for this symptom:
If you can't hear a person on a call or voicemail or if the sound quality is poor on iPhone - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203800
Clear the receiver
The iPhone receiver won't work properly if it's blocked or dirty. Here's where the receiver is:
Follow these steps, testing after each:
- Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver, such as a case or film.
If you have a new iPhone, remove the plastic film on the front and back of the device.
- Check the receiver opening to see if it's blocked or dirty. If necessary, clean the receiver opening with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
- While you're on a call, turn on speakerphone. If you still can't hear, then your network or reception could be the issue. Try calling again later or from a different location.
Restart and update
1. Restart your iPhone and test again.
2. If there's still no sound or poor sound quality, update to the latest version of iOS.
Get more help
If you've tried these steps and there's still no sound or poor sound quality from your iPhone, contact Apple Support.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Iphone 4s upgraded to iOS 5.1 - outgoing calls impossible

i bought my apple iphone 4s today here in germany. i updated the software to iOS 5.1, and outgoing calls are impossible to make. please help.

problem is quite big, you're not alone: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3404857?start=1215&tstart=0
though i think you're referring to 5.0.1 not 5.1, we're hoping 5.1 will fix the problem (that i have too)

Last night, I saw my iPhone on the table in front of me and twice it made phone calls on its own. I just watched it make the outgoing call as it sat in front of me. Should I think that it has a virus? What should I do about it?

Also, it's been a little quirky lately: slow to respond to key pad touching and making it impossible to delete Apps?
Should I try wiping it and restoring it to factory settings?
Thank you.
Ben

It isn't a virus.
I would try the Restore from backup first and if that does not help try a Restore as a new iPhone.
