IPhone 5: Cannot hear or speak on phone calls

Hello,
I've encountered a problem with my iPhone 5 which seems to coincide with the download of IOS 7. When making or receiving calls I cannot hear the person on the other line and they cannot hear me, the line is totally silent but the call has connected. The microphone and speakers work with everything else from videos to Siri; I also tried using Facetime voicecall to replicate using the top speaker and that works totally fine and the person on the end of the line can hear me fine. Anyone have any ideas what it might be?
Thanks

  • Speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default.

    speaker on phone calls will not work, how can I fix this? I have already done system restart and reset to manufature default. I also have no voice with Safari or any other apps including music!

    If your speaker is broken, then you may need to get a repair done.
    Are you unable to hear anything at all, or is it just one speaker in particular?
    If it is just one speaker, where's it located?

  • Callers cannot hear my answer my phone

    When I answer my iPhone 4s, at first no one can hear me. Usually the rest of the convo is fine, but when first answering, the caller cannot hear me answer. I've only had my phone for a month. Should I take it in?

        KilroyLeges,
    Thank you for reaching out to us. I am sorry to hear of your troubles with your device. We certainly want you to always have a working phone. It sounds like you have a broken internal speaker. Are you still under warranty or have insurance on the device? Is their any damage to the phone? If none, then you should be able to get a replacement device. You can try to do a factory reset to see if the issue is possibly stemming from an internal application issue, but more then like it is from the speaker. Keep us updated on this information so we can figure out the next steps to take.

  • Speaker, cannot hear when making or recieving calls

    I am furious! this is my 2nd replacement due to speaker phone problems even after restoring the phone to original settings. My orginal phone was replaced due to the sleep button not working, I got a replacement and from my first call there was a loud screeching noise, this happened on every call I made or recieved THEN I took the phone back to apple and it worked whilst in the shop, anyway to cut a long story short it happened again I then got it replaced today, I checked the phone in store making sure there were no issues with making calls, everything worked fine. I made my first call on way back to car and the sound completely goes, I cant hear anything but the other person can hear me fine. I went back the shop to be told to restore...have done that...still cannot hear??

    I had this issue the second day I had my iPhone 6. I could hear them clearly but all they heard was dead air. I can't confirm it but I believe it had something to do with my Bluetooth not releasing even though it was turned off. The only way I was able to restore functionality was to restore the iPhone through iTunes. Once I did that there weren't any further problems and it's now been almost 4 weeks.

  • Callers cannot hear me on the phone

    I've had a problem with my Samsung Galaxy SIII almost since I purchased it a few months back. When on a phone call, people cannot hear me unless I use an external headset or Bluetooth. Occasionally using speakerphone works, but as time goes on, that works less frequently. Please help!

  • I cannot hear people over my phone when I make or receive calls

    This is a brand new iPhone 5 - did not drop it or has any other damage. I cannot hear people when I've answered. Volume on full, no plastic cover, just very poor quality of sound

    complete bullocks and still have the problem

  • Iphone 4: cannot hear anything

    During phone calls, with the volume set almost at the peak level, I can barely hear the voice of the people I'm talking to, and I must often ask them to repeat their words.
    I've already tried the reset and restore procedure, but nothing has changed.
    After waiting two weeks for the delivery, I must admit that I am am very, very disappointed by Iphone 4.

  • IPhone 4s,Cannot import pictures from my phone to my laptop

    First off, I have windows XP, and an iPhone 4s. When I connect my phone to my laptop a dialog box comes up asking me what I want to do with the USB hardware, (usualy asks "import/export pictures etc.") When this dialog box comes up with options available it works fine, but eventually it goes blank after a month or so and that when I cant import pictures from my phone. In the past, uninstalling iTunes and all apple support programs and reinstalling them fixes everything. But now even that doesnt work. I bring up my computer and my phone is listed, but if i try to access it, by either bringing up the properties or just duoble clicking it comes up blank or just does nothing. I can sync to iTunes with no issues but anything outside of iTunes doesnt work. I can't even import my pictures through iTunes. PLEASE HELP!! (I'm new to the Apple world and am not sure if importing pictures through iTunes is even possible) Thanks you
