Iphone 5 microphone is not working?!

My iphone 5 charger port was faulty then stopped working all together. By saving myself $80 I decided to do it by myself. It was a bit tricky but I eventually did it and everything was working perfectly fine.
Then a few weeks later my mic would start to play up by not working about 50% of the time with my phone calls. But Siri will still hear me 100% of the time. In phone calls, swapping to loud speaker will sometimes fix the problem but not always. What could be the matter? How can I fix this?

You voided any support from Apple when you opened up your phone. Google is your friend.

  • My microphone does not work on calls on my iPhone 4

    Don't ask me what has happened and I have been through all of the troubleshooting that I can on my own. 
    I have no clue how to get a hold of a LIVE AT&T person or APPLE person.
    The problem is my microphone does not work when I use the telephone, whether I make the call or someone calls me.  It is NOT the MUTE button.  And yes, I have already rebooted my iPhone about 5 times now.  Has not fixed it either.
    But the microphone DOES work as I was able to record a new voicemail greeting to let people know my phone isn't working.
    So, they could call me all day long but they won't hear me, so who do I call using my landline (thankfully I kept it).
    It is the day after Thanksgiving and I would be a fool to head over to the Apple Store or the AT&T Store....
    Thank-you,
    Marcia

    Try disconnecting the headphones and then adjusting the volume, does it say headphones?
    There might be something in the headphone jack, maybe lint, dirt, or something else in there.
    Take a look at this Apple document for more information -> iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers

    I live in South Africa, and I had the same problem with my iPhone 4.
    After weeks of frustration and swearing, I was in the process of restoring my phone to a previous iOS. To do that you need to turn the "Find my iPhone" option off, since i turned it off, my problem was solved. No need to repair anything or revert back to old iOS.
    ***** that i cant use Find my iPhone, but atleast i can use my phone.

  • My iphone's microphone is not working

    My iphone's microphone is not working, I can hear people, but they can't hear me. They can only hear me when the phone is on speaker. Also the phone isn't on warranty anymore, so what should I do?

  • Microphone does not work in Facetime

    Hi
    I read other posts and in Maverik I didn't find simmilar problem, for most people their microphone does not work after few minutes, but in my case, microphone does not work at all in Facetime, so I can hear the other end, but they can not hear me! This happened after updating Mavericks.
    My Mac specs:
    Macbook Pro 2013
    OSx 10.9.1 (Mavericks)
    things I already tested:
    I tried to use headphone and without headphone, but it didn't make any difference
    Microphone works fine in Skype and other softwares (Audacity, YahooMessenger, etc.)
    Tried with WiFi and with Ethernet cable
    Internet speed is 2.3MBps
    Router's firewall does not have any restriction for certain ports
    Tried turning facetime Off and On
    Tried to call iPhone 5s, iPad2 and MacBook Pro each in different network and different countries!
    ... and finally searching internet for hours (which obviously came up with nothing)
    I'll be thankful if somebody help me through, all suggestions are welcome, so please don't hesitate to post.

    Same issue here....
    8-core Mac Pro, Lion, Original External iSight camera connected via FireWire 400 through the FireWire jack on the 23" Apple Cinema Display.
    Audio and video work fine using iChat and making video clips through any/all apps.
    However, using FaceTime.....incoming audio and video are fine, outgoing video is fine, but outgoing audio is missing.  Nobady can hear me.
    Sorry guys...you can't doll this one up or spin it in any other direction......it's a bug pure and simple.
    Feel free to fix it whilst you're dealing with all the other problems that Lion has.

  • I upgrade my iph4 to ios 7.1.2 and the microphone is not working on video camera, is not working anymor also the microfon on speaker mode, please help me

I do a full reset on my iph but still not working , also my girlfriend have same problem.Please help me, thx.

    To rule out a software issue, try to set it up as new device, without using the latest backup, explained in this article:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    If this does not help, the problem might be hardware related and the phone needs to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

  • After upgrading to ios8 my 4s text dictation microphone does not work and is "greyed" out

    After upgrading to ios8 my 4s text dictation microphone does not work and is "greyed" out.  There is no function at all.

    Ok I fixed the issue, turns out a couple of weeks ago, I downloaded a program that was suppose to help shrink some of your stuff to use less data, it was called Onavo.  It was suppose to show you how much data you use to help keep you within your limits.  If you have downloaded this, go through your settings and delete it and it will fix the problem.  At least it did for me.  I can now send photo's to non Iphone users via text no problem.

  • Bought iphone4 and the microphone does not work only if we use in speak mode. How is it possible to fix

    I bought two  iphone4 in Miami and one of them appared a problem that the microphone does not work in normal call only if i use the speak mode. I am living in Manaus - Amazonas - Brazil and we do not have an apple store to complain it.
    Question.
    How is it possible to fix this problem ?

    Unfortunately, the warranty is NOT international. You will have to send the defective phone to someone in the U.S. and ask them to take it into the Apple Store for replacement, then have them ship it back to you. Apple will not accept the International shipment, nor will they ship a replacement phone out of the country where it has warranty coverage.
    There are 4 carriers in Brazil who sell the iPhone, including one which sells it completely unlocked. You probably would have been better off to purchase them there if that's where you live.

  • Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.

    Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.   Keeps telling me "unable to verify address" and says it is sending me a verification link to my email address but I never get anything.   Crazy. 
    After a while it tells then me that it cannot verify my email address because of a network connection  ("Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again. ")
    Does anyone have any ideas?

  • [XP64] Microphone does not work in WinXP 64

    Hi,In Windows XP 64bit my microphone does not work, tried it in Ventrilo 2., Skype and even in the Windows Recorder. The computer don't detect any sound. Offcourse?I have selected the microphone in the recordering section in the Windows volume panel and the volume at maxium. Also in the volume panel under playback the microphone is not mute, set to max volume. I have also installed WinXP 32bits and here it works OK with exactly the same settings. Thats why I think it is because of my Soundcard driver, I have installed the latest driver from this site. I have a SoundBlaster X-Fi Fatality. Is there anyone with a X-Fi soundcard with the same problem or anyone where the microphone works in WinXP 64bit's Or is it a known problem?Please help me

    Hi Theicewarrior,?Creative support has been aware of this issue for quite some time (6+ months, maybe even a year). The 4GB+?RAM driver/addressing issues are not a priority or they would have been addressed quite some time ago.
    Presumably this is due to functional Vista drivers for the masses being a higher priority than the relati'vely few of us with 4GB+ RAM and an X-Fi.
    While the X-Fi?is a great card, my only wish was that the vendor was forthright about this product not functioning with certain configurations. It is my feeling that?making an effort to help?customers choose?products that will work with their configurations would result in satisfied and repeat customers?and a better bottom line?as opposed to?eeking a few extra dollars out of a slightly larger customer base and?who are then left unsatisfied with a product and unwilling to buy a company's products in the future.Message Edited by Foddan on 07-9-20070:45 AM

  • Re: Satellite Pro L500-1PU - internal microphone does not work

    I have an L500 -1PU Toshiba, running on 32 bit Windows 7,
    The webcam is working wonderfully but the internal microphone is not working properly.
    I had an external microphone so i hadn't noticed this problem when i got on skype, but i've recently discovered that when using the webcam the person on the other end can hear faint noises from my computer when i'm playing music or watching a video clip.
    How can i solve this and get my microphone working properly such that i can control the volume and actually get full service from my otherwise decent notebook?
    Thanks

    Hi
    Possibly this Toshiba FAQ could help you:
    +Whistling sound on the Satellite L500+
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0402UB0001R01.htm
    Its a matter of the settings.
    This issue occurs if the microphone volume in the speakers properties is enabled.
    After disabling this point the issue with acoustic feedback does not appear anymore.
    Hope this helps!

    If my IPhone 5c is not working and I have to trade it for a new phone can I get a 5s or do I have to trade it in for another 5c?

    A warranty or out of warranty replacement through Apple will be for the same model, same capacity, same colour.
