IPhone system wide audio volume issues after iOS 5 update...

I have an iPhone 4 (CDMA) that I updated to iOS 5 on launch day. I didn't notice it at first, and maybe it's just my imagination, but the volume of everything on the phone seems to have gotten a bit lower. Not only music, but also all ringtones, SMS tones... everything. I checked to make sure all the volume sliders are up; they are. I also made sure volume and accessibility settings are set appropriately; they are as well. I'm stumped on this and unfortunately I don't have another iPhone running iOS 4 to test this with. I have searched the forums here and on Google to no avail; it seems that either people haven't begun posting about this yet, or it's not a problem with most users. Is anyone else noticing this and if so, is there a workaround?

Hey there,
Thanks for the tip. I tried it, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. I noticed a glitch a few days ago - when I unlocked my phone and went to listen to some music (through an ihome), there was barely any sound. I touched the volume slider (which was already at max volume) and it shot back up to normal. I still think that ringtones/smstones are softer than iOS 4 though.

IPhone 3GS Audio Volume Decrease After iOS 5 Update

The Audio/Volume on my iPhone 3GS has Decrease SIGNIFICANTLY After iOS 5 Update. Oddly, the volume of the ring is fine, and as lout as it used to be, and as loud as all other audio should be, but when using any 3rd party applications, the volume output is significantly less (about 40% less) than it used to be.
I am NOT the only person to experience this problem. Apparently, the issue has been around since this past summer, when iOS was still being developed / tested. There is a post about someone experiencing the same issue, here:
http://modmyi.com/forums/general-iphone-chat/768919-ios-5-low-volume.html
And before you ask .. I did a language change and reset, and I am still experiencing the SAME issue.
Any help or advice with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
In advance, thank you.

I have a similar or related problem with iOS5/3GS and volume:

In my case I can hear nothing from the internal speakers although I can use headphones. The volume slider bar is unavailable unless I plug in headphones.

Pages having Korean font issues after iOS 7 update.

iWork on my ipad and iphone cannot handle Korean font after iOS 7 update. It displays Korean correctly in those documents I created before the recent iOS 7 update, but breaks down as soon as I try to edit them. Anyone has the same problem with international fonts? Is there anyway to fix the problem? Is it an iWork issue or the iOS 7 issue? It certainly does not look like a hardware issue, because other apps work fine indeed.

You should report this to Apple (as others have):

Camera issues after ios 5 update

my iphone 4 issues are as follow after ios 5 update:
camera sometimes takes low resolution photos (without zoom)
camera sometimes goes blank (blank screen)
can anyone help?

You probably haven't "lost" the zoom feature on your iPhone 4, you probably missed that you now activate it using the pinch to zoom rather than tapping on the screen...

Volume issues after ios 5.0.1 update

i recently updated from ios 5.0.1 to 5.1 and today i observed that the volume went low while listening to songs and i did a hard reset and now things have started to work fine.but what is the permanent solution for this?any one who is facing this issue?

While wifi connection is never good on ipad according to my experiecne, the situation is worsend after ios 5.0.1. It takes approximatley 2 to 3 minutes for me to connect to the home router, (it took 30 secs at most in the past). When I go out for outdoor wifi, the hotspots of some internet service providers can never be connected, the refreshing circles keeping spinning for 3 to 5 minutes and nothing happen.
The bottom line is, battery life seems to run longer than before, but I don't think it is an acceptable trade-off.

My Iphone 4S doesn't turn on after IOS 7 updates

Hei guys,
I have an iphone 4S. Few days before the release of IOS7 I managed to download the beta version to my iphone. Everything was going fine until the first update of IOS7. It shuted up completelly. I manage to make it alive again, but today, it got ran out of battery and now I can't turn it on any more. I tried quite a few things. My Itunes recognizes the iphone when I plug it onto my computer, however, everytime I press the hold buttom, it doens't turn on. I've tried holding home and hold buttom as well, but everything I have is a weird screen with a big sort of finger print white in the middle of a black screen.
Do you guys know what I can do in order to solve the problem? I've restored and resetted the iphone as well, but it insists in not turning on.
Thank you guys for your attention
Leandro

Hi Enriquedelgado35,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has steps you can take if your iPhone won't turn on without being connected to power:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Cheers,
- Ari

IPhone 4S taking forever to sync after iOS 7 update

My iPhone 4S is taking forever to completely sync the back up after updating to the new iOS 7 operating system. It's stuck in step 6 of 6 'waiting for items to copy'. Please help!

I was having this same problem with iPhone 5 with the latest version of iOS 7 and iTunes. It was just taking forever on the 'waiting for items to copy' step.
I disabled Genius on my iTunes setup, and immediately it resumed and completed that step. Seems like it was waiting for Genius results that weren't there, or weren't available.
I have a large iTunes library and still like to manually manage the music on my iPhone.
I guess I'll live without Genius until Apple can fix this.
iTunes Genius can cause manual sync of music to iPhone to hang for a long time.

Home button issues after iOS 8 update

Has anyone experienced problems with their home button after the iOS 8 update? When I am trying to exit an app using the home button I press it once, but then the iPhone acts as if I have pressed it twice quickly and brings me to the "multitasking screen". It doesn't always do this error, but it is not uncommon and it is very annoying. It never did this before the iOS 8 update. I may try to just restore the iPhone but first I want to see if anyone else is having the same problems or has any suggestions how to fix it. Thanks!!
~Rich

Not sure if you remember, but on previous iPhones you can reset your home button by doing this:
     >Open your Stocks App
     >while there, press & hold the power button as if you're about to turn the device off
     >once the "slide to power off" screen pops up, stop pressing the power button and press & hold the home button. Your screen may flash a couple times but it should return to your apps screen (or home screen, w/e screen you were at before) and the Stocks App should close. Supposedly this resets the home button
OR
go into your Accessibility setting under General and set your "Home-click speed" to default. That setting may have changed when you updated.
Let me know if this works...

Iphone 3gs does not turn on after ios 6 update

After the ios6 update, my iphone 3gs does not turn on. I see the apple logo, after a minute, it boots again and i see the logo again. This process seems to continue like a circle. After a search the net, i see that i am not the only one. A quick fix and suggestions please, as i need my phone of course.
Btw, Apple, i know that this is an old hardware and i will buy the new iphone 5 when it is available here in my country in December. But of course, you claşmed this update supports my 3gs, you should immediately find a fix
Regards..

Well, i don't see an another solution possible; you should try again and again to restore. Btw, my phone seemed to operate strange (even the stock mail app began to crash) so i tried hard reset (home button + sleep/wake button until seeing the apple logo). After that i found my phone again in dfu mode this night so began restoring again now.
It seems that apple didn't tested ios6 enough with the 3GS. I have a 32 GB phone so this will be near 60 gb download from the icloud over my broadband connection.

Iphone 4 does not receive calls after iOS 6 update

Hi
can anyone help me?
Since the iOS 6 update my wife's phone has not been working properly, every so often calls are diverted to answer phone and only register to advise of a missed call, I have tried the following:
restarted the phone, taken the sim card out and then back in again, reset the settings and logged in to a different apple ID. The only thing I haven't done is to restore back to factory settings and start again.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so were you able to correct it.
Thanks for your time
Den

Multiple issues after iOS 5 update (iPhone 4)

I'd like to know if others have experienced these issues, and more importantly if they were able to fix them. It's really frustrating.
1. Sticky keys. Just like the 4.0 update when the 4 came out, my 3GS suffered the same issues. You start typing and the keys "stick" and typing appears in fits and starts on the screen.
2. Glitchy Safari screen manipulation. Resizing, panning and scrolling the screen. It locks up and can't be moved sometimes.
3. WiFi networks. Refuses to connect sometimes, gives "unable to connect" error. Even on my home network where it connected perfectly before. Sometimes it takes forever to connect.
4. Downloads fail. Downloading Podcasts like TED talks on WiFi stop at some random point and have to be restarted. I have maybe a 25% success rate with downloads.
5. Crashing apps. Doesn't matter what app it is; I'm experiencing random crashes, usually immediately after starting the app.
6. Cellular network. Sometimes it just sits there saying "searching..." and it takes several minutes to connect. Sometimes after connecting it says "could not connect to cellular data network". Then it connects.
Any solutions or ideas?

Restore complete, will work with it for a few days and see how it goes.

IPhone 4 issues after iOS 6 update

I own the iPhone 4 and updated to iOS 6. My phone is not working right anymore. I have multiple problems from sound, over shortcuts, apps to speed and battery life. How can I fix all my problems, so my phone works as it dud before I installed iOS 6?

I had the same problems! IOS 6 absoltely RUINED my iPhone 4! However, restoring AS A NEW iPhone fixed my problems! I had done a bunch of restores, but always restored from my backup. Restoring as a new phone has aleviated my phone of all my problems. make sure you back up ur contacts, calendars to the cloud before you do this. Your music, apps, pictures and videos will all be able to be put back, however contacts and emails will only be restored if you back up to the cloud BEFORE the restore. But definitely give this a try. Worked for me!

Sync issues after iOS 8 update

Hi,
I have an iPhone 5S, 64 GB. After updating to iOS8 I got sync issues. "Waiting for changes to be applied" never disappeared. Also the storage usage in iTunes 11.4 is wrong. iTunes said I had 6GB free, when I had in fact 20GB. I restored the phone back to firmware, restored the backup. All was fine until I made setting changes in iTunes what I want to sync. The same issue in iTunes is back again. I already deleted my voice memos as someone recommended in another threat but that didn't help.
Any ideas how I can solve the problem, would be appreciated. Thank you!

Why my iPhone 4S keep reseting by itself after iOS 7 update?

Hello:
This s not funny at all. After I updated to IOS 7.0.3 couple weeks ago, there s several times my phone is reseting by itself.
When I try to turned ON again, s telling me the battery s dead and need to connect it to the power source.
After connected, is coming back again to the live and telling me the right charge of battery I had before.
Battery it was never empty or close to be. Always is around 50 % of capacity.
This happens on the middle of a call, texting or mailing.
Tell me what I could do to stop this mess up,
Please.

In Apple Store, they told me that it is a hardware problem and my phone isn't able to use the new iOS 7.1 because my phone is too old but it's only 2,5 years old.
I suspect that something in that conversation was seriously misunderstood. The iPhone 4S runs iOS 7 without any issues.
If the device has a hardware issue, then it does not matter what version of iOS is on the device, it will not function properly.
