Iphone 5 ringer not working

I just updated to iOS 6.1 today evening and in a few hours the ringer stopped working.
I have tried all of below
1. Check mute button,
2. Soft reset
3. Hard reset.
Nothing works. Suddenly when a call comes it will ring once and stop.
No keyboards clicks, cant hear music either.
When i put the call on speaker mode it doesnt work either.
Please help...

I bought an iPhone 5 yesterday and had the same issue - ringer not working, no music through the speakers etc. I tried to back restore it but to no avail.  I took it into a Mac shop and they were stumped too.  I have iOS 6.1.3 on the phone.
A strange thing happened today.  I use my phone as an alarm clock.  I set it last night as I do normally (I had a 4S before) and this morning the alarm woke me up.  I tried to play some music through the speakers and lo and behold it worked as did the ringer and other tones.
Not sure if this was pot luck or what but it maybe worth a try before chucking the phone out of the window!
I'd be interested to know if this works for anyone else.

    Hi there bananas321,
    You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

    My iPhone will not work unless I plug it into my wall charger, It is fully charged but only works when it is plugged in to wall charger. When it is turned on it say "Restore needed iphone can not make or receive calls' i tried plugging it up to Itunes but it will not turn on to sync.

    First try a hard reset, press and hold the power button and home buttons until the phone restarts and displays the Apple Logo, then let go.
    If that doesn't work...
    Try forcing recovery mode and then restore with iTunes.

    I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
    As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
    I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
    As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

  • After updating my iphone 6 to ios 8.0.2, the iphone is not working at all!!

    after updating my iphone 6 to ios 8.0.2, the iphone is not working at all!! the apple logo shows up for a few seconds. then the screen goes red !! after it restarts and it do the same!! please help.

    Well, just for future reference, any time you do an iOS upgrade, it is a good idea to back up your device just prior to doing the download. You can back it up to iCloud or to iTunes. Personally, I prefer to back it up to iTunes, and then to do the download via iTunes as well. Doing a Wifi download can, by the very nature of the OTA environment, run into more issues than a hard-wired one via iTunes.
    If it is just a version release (like 8.0.1, or 8.0.2), then I might download it via Wifi, since the content is not likely to be very large. But for any major new release (7 to 8, etc.) it is always a good idea to do it via the USB cable rather than OTA.
    I would also suggest that you set up your device to do automatic iCloud backups. Whenever it is turned on (i.e., not manually powered off - it can be "asleep"), plugged into a power source, and connected to Wifi, it will do an automatic backup every 24 hours. Mine usually backs up at night.
    But even with my iCloud backup in reserve, I still did an iTunes backup before I upgraded to iOS 8. I like having the extra security of that second backup to choose from, should I need it. Here is a support article comparing the two types of backup:

    Sorry you lost your stuff. Hope then next update goes better for you!

    I would imagine your iPhone was hacked to make it work on your local carrier.
    Updating the iOs to 5.xx will lock it back to the original carrier .The carrier holding the lock are the only
    entity able to authorise the unlock .You will have to contact them and see if they unlock and the terms the apply

    Dear Sirs,when i use the computer updating my iphone to ios 7.1,suddenly black out.The computer has no power and my iphone does not work and keep display the screen saying the iphone need to connect to itunes.

    If you didn't back up the phone to iCloud or iTunes (on your computer) BEFORE attempting the update, the data will be lost.

    sounds like your phone was hacked to work with your carrier.  Now it is relocked to the rightful carrier.  It cannot be reactivated without a SIM from that carrier.

  • Connecting my iphone to wall charger makes my iphone touch not work properly

    I have a iphone 3g and a orignal apple wall charger when i connect my iphone to charger it makes my iphone touch not work properly, but it charges the phone properly.the data cable is also working properly. So can any one help me out here.thanks

    Holy smokes, I thought I was losing my mind, but that's the exact same thing that's started happening to me since this whole 4.3.1 "upgrade" disaster started - hooking it up to the wall charger overnight, wake up in the morning and it's a brick requiring multiple attempts to restart.
    It's also randomly and spontaneously crashing - it'll be on the table or couch beside me, I'll catch movement out of the corner of my eye and look over and see a silver apple.

    The Left speaker of my iPhone is not working.. Is there a way to correct it... Actually if I connect iPhone to aux in of my car even then the left speakers of my car also won't work. Any suggestions?

    There is no left speaker.
    As the manual clearly shows there is only one speaker at the bottom of all iphones.  The other is a mic.
