IPhone left speaker problem

I just got passed down an iPhone 4 that was bought in the end of 2010, and I have a major sound problem. For some reason, the left side, (left speaker/left headphone) hasn't been working. I'm not sure what it is, and yes I've tried the left and right accessibility, and restoring and resseting settings but nothing changes. Is there any way I can fix this?

All iphones have one and only one speaker at the bottom. The other is a mic.
If the headphones are effected, then try a different set.

Left speaker problems since iOS7 7upgrade

I recently upgraded to iOS7 on my iphone 5 and since that time, the left speaker system is muted on the left side to include the headphone plug in port, the actual speakers and blue tooth to my car audio. II did a factory reset and even have replaced my phone (as it was under warranty) with the same issue. My previous phone worked perfectly with iOS5 with both speakers having equal sound, but since the upgrade, the left side is markedly muted to no sound. Anyone with similar problems since upgrade?

I have tried 3 different headphones, which didn't change. The headphone port shouldn't effect the blue tooth connection to my car, thus I think this is more of a software problem....plus the brand new phone i got is doing the same thing afte iOS7 installation.

What was the original operating system and type?
Did you switch from a 64-bit Windows 7 to 32-bit Windows 8?

W520: left speaker problem (high-pitched sounds)

my W520 right speaker sound really bad when playing high-pitched sounds (e.g. Windows-Sounds, Windows-Speaker-Test-Sound).
check out the video
http://youtu.be/saR-9jlens8?hd=1
the left speaker sounds pretty good, so I guess the mainboard/driver shouldn't be a problem.
is there a way to get a replacement speaker?
does anybody has or had a similar problem?

Hi stifu
Yes, just use the Windows test on the last few seconds to prove the tech that the right speaker is faulty and they will replace it for you. I have met the same problem before and I have the speaker replaced once.
Have a nice day!

Macbook Pro's Left Speaker problem

I bought MacBook Pro 13 inch i7 on friday and I noticed that when I play music the left speaker has some cracking noise in it. When I play my music over the right, there is no noise, but when I use both or just the left... there is some kind of noise, crackling, vibrating sound. what should I do with it??

Hi s,
Given that it's brand new, I would definitely contact Apple. You have a 14 day return/exchange period and a 1 year hardware warranty. AppleCare phone support is free for 90 days.

My iphone 5 speaker problems

my iphone 5 speaker just quit working. how do i fix this

Assuming all your settings are correct:
1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
2. If that doesn't solve the issue, backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
Good luck

IPhone 3G speaker problem

When ever I tried using the speaker phone, it gives me a loud sharp buzzing sound from the speaker and restarted my phone. Tried restore my iphone but still not working.
I can listen to songs using the speaker without problems. Only that whenever I made a call and touch that speaker, it just give you a loud buzzing sound and restarted it.
Message was edited by: akchang

well, when the sound starts buzzing (cracking some sort), the phone will eventually asked me to re-enter my sim unlocked code. Sometimes it just asked me to re-enter again and again without successfully getting any service from my telco. Eventually I hold the on/off button on top and slide to power off.

IPhone 5 speaker problem

I fixed the problem with the speaker by inserting earphones in and quickly taking them out and then blowing air forcefully into the speaker. During the process play music. It started working immediately (I could hear music playing) but stopped working in a minute or so. I repeated the process and the speaker started working again for another minute. Then it stopped working. This proves that the problem is mechanical (with hardware). The speakers apparently are too sensitive to either dust or moisture in the air or something else.
Would be interesting to find out if the above method fixed your problem too.

It's under warranty, why in the world would you try to fix it yourself.
There are no legitimate sources for iPhone parts. Apple does not sell parts.
Take it into any Apple Store in the US and let them have a look at it.

IPhone 4S Speaker Problems

I purchased an iPhone 4s in November 2011. I am on my third, yes THIRD phone since then. I have had to send the other two back because the speaker stopped working. They were each still under the warranty so I could with no problem. Six months after having my latest phone, it happened again! My son and I were just sitting on the couch using Voice Memo and one minute I was marveling over the great sound and the next minute it wasn't working. All I got was this muffled, russling sound. That's it! It just stoped working. I didn't drop it, step on it, throw it, it just stopped working! I am so frustrated! I don't think I will be able to return this one, as I'm pretty sure my warranty is up. I tried rebooting the phone and it worked again for Voice Memo and now I get the muffled sound when I use the spearker on my phone and when taking video. AAAAHHHHH!!! Can anyone help me? This is soooo frustrating! I cannot believe this is the third time this has happened! I would appreciate any wisdom you can share as to how to deal with this. Thank you.

Sorry mate didn't make it clear enough. how could i fix this problem?

IPhone external speaker problem

My 3g phone continues to cut out (sound). The ringer won't ring, no sound at all, then it will come back... Tried rebooting/resetting and nothing works. Anyone else have this trouble?

You could also try a restore in iTunes, but it sounds (no pun intended) like a hardware problem, so I'd recommend a visit to an Apple Store or a call to AppleCare.

Iphone 4s speaker problem

I have purchase my IPhone 4s from abu dhabi, after 2 months my speakers stop working i went to so many outlets they were saying if you have purchase from etisalat or du they will claim your iphone 4s if it is like that then why apple were selling it to all product to all local markets.
Why these people were saying you can't claim your iphone to anywhere in abu dhabi to local market.
If you have purchase Iphone from etisalat or Du then only you can claim.
Can anyone help me in that

Hi,
I have an iphone 3gs so i dont know if yours will have a different set up up-its just a shot in the dark but if you go into settings-general scroll down to accessability-there is a slider for audio,this might help!
Good luck!

Left speaker on MacBook Pro is static when using FaceTime?

When I either receive or place a FaceTime call on my MacBook Pro, the left speaker cuts out audio and produces high static. The right speaker is fine. The receiving end can also hear the static feedback, but their two speakers work fine. I have all my iOS devices setup to receive and place FaceTime calls (iPhone 5s, iPad, and MacBook Pro 15 inch late 2011). If I place or receive the FaceTime calls on my iPhone or iPad, there is no problem.
I've tested the speakers, youtube, iTunes audio, streaming websites, netflix, etc... and all works fine on the MacBook Pro. Just FaceTime. I also went into system preferences and the speaker setup is correct (audio in and out - internal speakers).
I've also restarted, reinstalled Yosemite...still FaceTime left speaker problem.
I appreciate any troubleshooting advice and/or if others have experienced this problem.
Thanks!

Take it in for replacement. In time, the annoyance will become intolerable.
Ciao.
