IPhone 5S call quality / volume issue. Please help.

Hi,
Please can anyone help?
I have an iPhone 5S and callers frequently complain (9 out of 10) that the volume fades in and out and my voice sometimes sounds robotic, i.e. digital interference. I always hold the iPhone in the same manner as any other phone and this is the first handset where callers have made such complaints. Clearly, if the iPhone can't provide basic phone functions then it needs to be returned.
Another concern is that both sides of the conversation can easily be heard by others despite not using the speaker phone. On other
Is my iPhone 5S faulty?
Martyn

Hi Allen,
Thanks for the reply.Unfortunately, that's not the problem.
The problem is that when I make or receive a call the other person will invariably complain that my voice seems to 'fade in and out'. Is this a hardware issue with the iPhone 5S? I believe the microphone may be faulty as the issue is not related to the distance I hold the iPhone 5S; I hold the iPhone 5S the same distance from my face as any other mobile telephone and have never had to apologise to clients of my business or make excuses for my telephone. My mobile telephone provider has agreed for me to return the iPhone as faulty and I need to ascertain whether this is a characteristic of the iPhone 5S or I was simply unlucky.
Kind regards,
Martyn

  • Iphone 4s jumping battery percentage issue - please help!

    Hi, I was just wondering, does anyone else have this problem? i recently updated my iOS to 5.1.1 Now my phone's battery indicator jumps from 24% to Zero, it automatically shuts down right after 24% no warning, it will just give me the "Please Charge" graphic on the phone. I did a Restore on the phone, but still the problem persits. as soon as i charge it, it automatically powers up, back to 24%. software problem? or hardware problem? please help!

    It seems like all IPhone 4(S) users have this problem eventually.
    Nonsense. 
    Does anyone have suggestions or ways to fix this issue? I
    Do the basic troubleshooting steps.  If they don't work, there is a hardware problem.

    definitely cannot afford a new phone right now and i will definitely not be looking into another IPhone when i get an upgrade.

  • T60 Volume Issue PLEASE HELP

    Hi guys
    I m a noob please don't flame me. I bought T60 5 months ago and the volume at max is not even low compared to other computers. What should I do to fix this problem? I have no computer fixing skills so please provide as much info as you can.  Thank you in Advance.

    you just have to get used to it, thats the way laptops are.  Unless its so low its hard to hear in a quiet room, there's not much you can do about it.  IF, it is in fact a faulty volume control, then you might be able to get it fixed by warrenty.  make sure your system volume is turned all the way up.  (double click on the speaker icon in the system tray, and max out all the volume options)  then turn up the speaker volume all the way.   Also, if you are using it on your lap, your legs are blocking some sound holes so it won't be as loud as it can be.     Can you give us an idea of exacly how quiet it is?   Is it quieter than an MP3 player turned up all the way playing through headphones?  Is it quieter than an on-board speaker on a PC?    Do you think you would be able to hear it inside a car while driving?

    Here's a nifty agorithm to fill an array of primes, using a forever loop with a labeled continue statement, from Horton's Beginining Java:public class MorePrimes
      public static void main(String[] args)
        long[] primes = new long[20];    // Array to store primes
        primes[0] = 2;                   // Seed the first prime
        primes[1] = 3;                   // and the second
        int count = 2;                   // Count of primes found - up to now,
                                         // which is also the array index
        long number = 5;                 // Next integer to be tested
        outer:
        for( ; count < primes.length; number += 2)
          // The maximum divisor we need to try is square root of number
          long limit = (long)Math.ceil(Math.sqrt((double)number));
          // Divide by all the primes we have up to limit
          for(int i = 1; i < count && primes[i] <= limit; i++)
            if(number%primes[i] == 0)             // Is it an exact divisor?
              continue outer;              // yes, try the next number
          primes[count++] = number;               // We got one!
        for(int i=0; i < primes.length; i++)
          System.out.println(primes); // Output all the primes

    How to solve this problem that I have

    i've had a few issues like this.
    I've found that it is an issue with items that are already on your phone.
    several troubleshoots. 
    1) uncheck everything from syncing (apps, music, tv shows, movies, podcasts, etc), try to perform a sync, it most likely will work.  Then, sync after checking each item individually (check the sync box for videos, then sync, check the sync box for podcasts, then sync, check the sync box for music, then sync, etc).  One of two things will happen, 1) you will fix the problem, or 2) you will identify exactly what part of the sync setup is the culprit.
    2) if the above doesn't work, I've found that it is likely an issue with files that are on your phone but your phone doesn't exaclty recognize (for example, I had copies of music on my phone that didn't show up in the music app, I went in on itunes and manually deleted those songs from my phone and that fixed the sync).  to do this, check the "manually manage music and videos" box at the bottom of "summary" while your phone is connected to itunes.  Then, go to the left hand pane in itunes and find your iphone device, click the drop-down arrow that shows all the categories for media on your iphone.  Go to the music category in your iphone on itunes and delete all the music that shows up.  Try to perform a sync - it likely will work.  After this, you can uncheck the manually manage music box and re-sync your phone as normal
    let me know if either works

    Hi Venu,
    We can't add authorisation objects on Individual servers.We need to add authorisations on BWD ie Dev system and transport to BWI QUA system.This is the Process we need to follow as per our rule set.
    So,As the problem mentioned above if i add some auth. objects on BWD DEV system and transport it to BWI QUA system,it is getting transported Successfully to BWI,but the auth.objects what i have added on BW DEV system is not found on BW QUA system.
    What could be the problem for that,Is that the problem with transports like TP error or is it related with some tables of auth.objects...................
    Could u please analyse the problem and tell me the solution for this..........
    Thanks Much

  • Mid 2010 15" MBP i5 A1286 POWER ISSUE-PLEASE HELP-

    The MBP works fine when mains connected but the only issue is every time I take the charger out it shuts down on me!!! So I have checked with a multitester & looks good the only thing i find hard to check for power is the battery itself as its hard to get a good connection, also I took to local Apple store & they checked with a new battery but said its still same issue so the guy disconnected nearly all the connecters off to check if they causing issue & he said now the battery is charging.
    So they still have the laptop to do further tests etc, but I’m not sure what could be the problem hear as maybe there is some component which is bad so the battery’s not charging or what else could be the issue please help & advice as I’m really confused as if it was something to do with the logic board then surely it would not even charge even after checking with the multitester or like Apple genius done by disconnecting other components...
    ANY HELP OR ADVICE WOULD BE HELPFULL,
    THANKS GUYS

    THANKS FOR THE HELP GUYS!!! BEEN AROUND 5 DAYS & NOT ONE PERON HAS HELPED...
    BUT YEAH THANKS AGAIN...

    Yes the phone belongs to me. It was purchased from United Kingdom Vodafone to West Africa, i had to factory unlock to use any sim in it. so it belongs to me. I did the activation myself, now after updating my iphone to the latest update, it required a user id and password to activate the phone, but anytime i enter the details, it tells me the user Id is not correct but the password is correct..

    In order to use your Apple ID to create an iCloud account, the primary email address associated with the ID must first be verified.  To do this, Apple will send a verification email to your account and you must respond to the email by clicking the Verify Now link.  Make sure you are check the spam/junk folder as well as the inbox.  If it isn't there, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • Trackpad Issue - Please Help!

    Hi there,
    Hope you can help me out here.
    I've recently purchased a 15" i7 Macbook pro. The machine is but 3 weeks old &, of course, very well looked after.
    A few days ago, the built-in trackpad started behaving eratically. Cursor moving by itself, not responding to touch, clicking and opening things involuntarily. Not good at all. Many users seem to have had this exact same issue.
    These problems seemed to miraculously stop after a few re-boots and possibly a software update? I really couldn't tell you what resolved the problem.
    Unfortunately I now have a totally different problem.
    There is a thin, possibly 8 to 10mm horizontal strip across the centre of the trackpad that no longer responds to touch. If I move my finger from the botom of the trackpad upwards (or vice versa), the cursor will stop momentarily as it passes over the horizontal strip. The buttons are fine and the rest of the trackpad is fine. For the moment, I've increased the cursor acceleration so that I can at least navigate round the screen with a smaller area of the trackpad. USB magic mouse seems to work fine.
    If anyone else has experienced this &/or found a solution for this issue, please help me out here. I have rifled through endless threads about MBP trackpad issues with little success & do not live close to an apple store/genius bar.
    This is a 3 week old machine that cost me a small fortune. To be getting software/hardware issues so early on in it's lifespan is really rather worrying for the future.
    Appreciate your help here.

    I'm not sure what caused this, but I extended my lunch break and drove the machine down to the Westfield apple store. I didn't have an appointment with the Genius Bar but I managed to persuade one of the staff to speak to a technician in the workshop. She came back into the store and told me that they had replacement trackpads and that , considering the machine was only 3 weeks old, the technicians kindly sandwiched the repair into their timetable at zero cost. 2 Hours later, I now have a perfectly functioning trackpad/machine.
    I can't thank them enough.
    My only gripe is that I couldn't speak to a technician to find out what the problem was, how they resolved it or what causes these issues for future reference. Understanding why these problems occur often helps to build your own framework of understanding. Most of the threads i've read about trackpad issues are largely unresolved with people only speculating the problem/solution.
    The initial issue I had with the trackpad's erratic behaviour seemed to be a well known problem that many are associating with a trackpad firmware update. Unless by pure coincidence I had an immediate & major hardware fault after it, which is unlikely, my personal guess is that the two issues were related.

    First try resetting your phone - hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't work restore the phone using Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.
    And if that fails it is probably a hardware failure (unless the phone is jailbroken; then that is the problem).
