IPhone 4s speaker would not work sometimes

I just recently purchased my iPhone 4S and it was brand new in an unopened box. After a few hours of usage, the speaker suddenly didn't work. I tried to make it work by unplugging and plugging in the charger port, and it works. It is continueing to not work several times, is there anything I can do to make this stop?

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.

  • Iphone 5 speaker is not working

    Hi
    My iphone 5 speaker is not working and I am out of 1 year warranty. I feel bad to pay for speaker again after spending 700$ on a phone that doesnt last 1.5 year. Is there anything i can do about it. I tried resetting my phone, restarting and all. I believe a lot of customers have this problem - making me believe this is manufacturing fault. I know i can pay 60 bucks to get a new speaker; but is there anything Apple can do? should I do anything at all?
    thanks

    Hello there, mcMlast.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great recommendations for troubleshooting issues with no sound from the speaker on your iOS device:
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please  contact Apple Support.

  • My iphone music speaker is not working what can i do?

    my iphone music speaker is not working what can i do ?

    Just to make sure, did you check the mute button on the side of the phone?
    If it is not set, can you hear music if you're using the headphones?
    If yes, listen to music using your headphones, then unplug and start the music again. If you toggle the volume up and down, can you see the volume slider moving?
    Do you get any sound, for example when your phone is ringing?

  • My Iphone 4s' speaker does not work. Please help!

    When I try to play music, put it on speakerphone, etc. it does not work.

    If repeatedly tapping the speaker and mute buttons don't work, try plugging/unplugging some headphones. Usually the circuit logic inside will reset itself.

  • IPhone 4s speaker does not work

    iPhone 4s integrated speaker turned off during playing, now only earphones are working. no ring tone any more.
    it was NOT caused after unplugging earphones.

  • HT204380 help. tried for first time to use FaceTime with another iPhone user & it would not work. "FaceTime failed". we are both on wi-fi networks & iTunes accounts are set up correctly.

    help. tried for first time to use FaceTime with another iPhone user & call refused to connect. Call would dial, allow us to accept call, then error message "FaceTime failed" would appear & call disconnect. we are both on wi-fi networks, both phones have updated software & both enabled FaceTime with iTunes logged in. don't know what else to do to get FaceTime to connect. Someone please help.

    Thanks Helen for the response. At least you can get some of the contacts to work. Absolutely none of mine will. Feel like my phone is cheating me out something it should do. Think I'm going to just have to dump all the Apple products in general because this phone hasn't worked right since I got it.

  • My iphone 4 speaker will not work.

    Hi,
    I have checked the toggle switch, it is not on mute. Vibrate works but not my ringing tones... and itunes will only play through headphones.
    I have had the phone for 24hours, updated and set it last night.
    ...Restored to factory settings three time ... pulled the headphone plug in and out perhaps 40 times!! (I look rather strange from afar)
    I would appreciate any insight.
    Thank you,
    Peter

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    If you have been through ALL of the troubleshooting steps and you're still having problems, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for investigation.

    Hi! My phone speaker is not working, so I cant hear people when they call me. I bought my iphone 4s con February 2013 in the Grand Central (NYC - USA) Apple Store. I would like to know if I can take it to an Apple Store in Spain so they can fix it or change it. Or I need to find a way to take it to the US, where I bought it.
    Thanks!!!

    You will need to return the phone to the US. iPhone warranty is only good in the country of purchase, with the exception of the EU.
