IPhone 5 speaker not working correctly

My iPhone 5 speaker works, and it doesn't if it gets turned up too loud, or my phone rings for a call, it's like it's too loud and the speaker stops working until I blow into the speaker. This doesn't always work either and requires acouple tries. Can someone please help? I don't want to send it in

There is a known problem with the original speaker module installed in the Iphone5.  If you experience crackling, static, or no sound at all from your phone and you've checked to make sure the volume is on, then it's likely an issue with the speaker module.  Apple will replace the phone or module for free for a year from the date of purchase but MAKE SURE YOU MAKE AN APPOINTMENT with the Genius bar, don't just show up, they only do repairs or exchanges if you have an appointment.  You can make one on line.  WARNING - if you purchased your Iphone5 from Verizon or another carrier and they are willing to exchange it make sure you don't get a refurbished phone because it's likely to have a defective original module in it too.  Make sure you get a NEW, recently manufactured Iphone5 with the new generation speaker module.  I went through three phones before I went to Apple instead of Verizon and got it replaced.  if they have a new speaker module in the Apple Store, they can just put a new module in your phone on the spot and you're good to go.  If they don't have one in stock, they just give you a new phone.

  • IPhone 5s GPS not working correctly

    GPS on my iPhone 5s does not work properly with the cover. I have the cover from apple itself. Does anyone else have the same problem ? If yes , what needs to be done ??

    Inside it cannot possible get a GPS signal to receive, so no coordinates.  If your iPhone 4 has previously been used outside where it could get a decent GPS signal, then it is simply displaying the last known GPS fix.  If the store's iPhone 5S has never been used outside, then its initial GPS fix may take several minutes, to locate and lock onto available satellite signals, and then only with a clear and unobstructed view of the open sky.
    To answer your basic question, just look at the tech specs for the iPhone 5S - yes, it has a GPS chipset.  But to receive signal from the satellites, you'll need to be outside under an open sky.  The signals are quite weak and do not penetrate buildings or much of any overhead structure that obstructs the skyview.

  • Anyone else's iPhone 4s speaker not working after update to iOS 6.1?

    My speaker does not work after updating the software to iOS 6.1. No sound for incoming calls or texts, no speakerphone, no siri, no music or any sounds played from apps. Headphones still work as does anything plugged into the headphone jack. I've check all my settings - everything is correct. I've rebooted and restored settings several times, I've docked it - nothing works.
    Anyone else having this problem? Did anyone have this problem and were able to fix it? Does anyone know if Apple is aware and will be sending another update to fix it? I really don't think it's a hardware problem. Phone is in immaculate condition and never dropped or spilled on.

  • Why is my iPhone 4 speaker not working?

    My iPhone 4 speaker has stopped working. It was working fine yesterday and now it's not, it still rings and plays alerts, but it won't play music, videos or podcasts. I've done a hard rest, played with all the iTunes settings and volume options. Suggestions?

    Do you hear when a headset is plugged in?  If so, plug and unplug the headset several times to get the phone unstuck from headset mode.

  • IPhone 4S speaker not working

    My iPhone 4S speaker is not work, so when i touch the air play button it gives the option to choose betwen dock connector and headphone , but when i unplug the headphone the volume bar dissapers and i cant hear music sound keyboard sound, etc but i can hear the ringtone when someone calls me  my iphone is in ios 6.0 , please help thanks

    Thanks for the help...apparently I'm too stupid to read a manual, or even realize that the speaker never worked in the first place, because it was in fact...not a speaker all   gdmacguy...thanks for the sarcasm, or whatever it was you were trying to relay in your awesome message.  It helped so much.  Next time leave your comments to yourself 

  • HT1937 iphone 4s speaker not working

    Hello everyone, I had bought a brand new unlocked iphone 4s at one Apple Store in Miami, Florida. I do not live in the US, so I traveled abroad to deliver the phone. This is a gift for my Dad. After seeting the device and start to use it we realized that the speaker is not working properly. I had reviewed in the web about this trouble and seems to be a common issue.
    As you cpuld guess this is a shame to had make the effort to get this device (because it is not cheap) and have this trouble.
    Did some one knows a solution for this trouble?
    I will appreciate your comments.
    It is obvious that due to the fact I am out of the US I will not be able to apply for a replacement, at least now.
    Regards,
    Alberto

    Well, why to buy in other country, for many reasons. In my case for a better price.
    And how did that work out for you?
    Now if you want a properly functioning phone, you'll have to bring the phone to the US (or mail it to someone you know there).  This phone will likely cost you MORE now, than had you just purchased it where you live.

    Hi All,
    I had this Sound / Speaker issue too on my iPhone 4S, with only Ringtone & Headphones working and no other sound coming despite several software hacks and solutions read on forums here. I managed to solve it today after reading online for a perfect solution.
    This seems to be a fairly frequent problem amongst users who are using 3rd party (Cheap Chinese) dock connectors or chargers. There is some residue on the charging connector and hence it seems to be stuck in Dock/Headphone mode. I personally had this issue that only Ringtone and Headphone were working. I cleared some stuck particles from the dock connector in iPhone below and voila ! Sound works perfectly. Try it using a cotton bud / swab with removed cotton or I did it with inverted metal paper clip carefully avoiding to scrap and destroy the PCB board. (Other common solution was to remove water particles from headphone hole but I didnt have any)
    All the best,
    Cheers !

  • I have Iphone 5 speaker not working

    pls need help to solve my iphone 5 ring and speakers are not wroking

    Check the mute switch on the side of the phone, does the icon shown on the display change between "sound" and "no sound" ?
    Did you try to reset the phone by a holding the sleep and home button for about 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.

  • I have an iPhone 4 on contract and its not working correctly , what should I do ?

    I have an iPhone 4 on contract , I only have this 5 and a half months and the iPhone is not working correctly and i do not have insurance .. What should I do ??

    It sounds like you did not purchase it at the Apple store? That doesn't matter - you can still take it to Apple to troubleshoot it.
    You can also try to troubleshoot it with the help of the folks here - if you want to do that, let me know and I'll ask that your post be moved to the iPhone forum where you're more likely to get knowledgeable answers, ok.

  • Need help iPhone 5 not working correctly

    my iPhone 5 keeps pressing all the keys around the key I want it to press on the keyboard also problems using lock screen numbers have re-started and the phone just reverts to not working correctly
    also when I got this phone I did it from a back up of my old iPhone 4 but not all the songs have fully downloaded (they are there, but cannot play) when I look on iTunes it says I have no songs that arn't on my iPhone that I've bought?
    Should I take my phone back to my carrier which is 3? Or make an appointment at the Genius Bar?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
    Backups do not contain media, all the media should be in iTunes on your computer.  Simply select the content desired to sync to the device and sync.

  • IPhone 3Gs notes not working correctly

    I use notes app all the time on my iPhone and noticed today that it is not working correctly. When I make a new note it takes forever to save it, meaning the little indicator keeps spinning on top showing the iPhone is working. Then once it is saved if I close it and come back into it to add something more to the note, it saves it for a second and then deletes what I just added. What can I do to fix this? I have a 3Gs software version 4.0.1. Thanks

    I did the reset and it 'appears' to be working. I still need to test it more before I am convinced. The reason I say this is because it still takes an abnormally long time to save a new note. I simply type one word into the notepad and say 'done' and the indicator at the top spins for several minutes. The information is still in the note so maybe its working. I wonder why it takes that long? Is that typical? I dont recall if it was always like that or I just noticed it because the function was not working properly??

    Hello there stidhambr15,
    I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.

    Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

    my speaker in iphone 4s is not working from yesterday ..it happened suddenly while listening to songs....do anyone had this pblm and how u resolved it?

    I got this problem solved and just want to let others know what it was.
    I followed ewdel1's advice and brought my phone in to have it looked at and sure enough, was told that this is a problem others have had and it was due to a faulty integrated circuit.  Luckily, I was able to take this in to be looked at when I did because my 1 year warranty was about to expire in a week.
    Apple replaced my 4S with a "new" phone.  The replacement looks and works good as new, so happy I didn't have to go through a hassle and the replacement was very straightforward.
