My Iphone has lost its sound

About a month ago i lost all sounds from my iphone 3g.
It works perfectly apart from the sounds. No ringing, clicking, ipod, anything with sound does not work.
It all works fine through the headphones.
I have tried removing and replacing the headphones hundreds of times and also blowing into the jack but i'm pretty sure my phone is not stuck in headphone mode as i've done the tests to see.
It happened after an update so i have the most updated version.
I have tried a reset, restore and just about everything i can find on the net forums.
The only other option i have is to take it into the store and send it away to be looked at, but i am reluctant to do this as it is not insured and i am due a new contract next month.
Any ideas of something new i can try???

Try this to verify that it definitely isn't that it's stuck in headphone mode.
For me, when I'm using the iPod app, it remembers the volume last used for both speaker and headphones so if I'm playing something and I pull the headphones out it pauses the song and I can visibly see the volume change without my input. So try setting different volumes for each state and see if yours does the same thing.
Maybe the speaker is simply dead.

  • My iPhone has lost its sound for calls

    my Iphone has lost it's sound for calls & notifications??? Help ! Otherwise, it works fine. ????

    Hi,
    You could certainly Try a Reset of the Phone...
    You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

  • My ipad has losts its sound

    I have a first generation iPad, I know I should buy a new one!
    IOS 6.1.3
    Recently I have lost the use of the toggle switch for turning the sound up and down. I have tried all the usual use slide switch to lock rotation and mute but it doesn't work no matter how I set it.
    I know the sound works as I get the usual tones when new messages arrive
    Any thoughts or ideas greatly appreciated
    Regards

  • ITouch G5 has lost its sound function

    My iTouch G 5 has again lost sound.  This happened about 5 weeks ago (the device is 4 months old) and I brought it to
    a very reputable Apple reseller.  I was told it was not the device, but probably a software problem---they did fix it.
    It has now happened again (I use it to listen to podcasts and newscasts---and to access email; I don't even use it for
    music listening, and the number of apps loaded onto it is very minimal).
    Is there a way that the sound function could be restored without my having to bring the iTouch in for repairs when this
    happens?  (The repair fee wasn't huge, but if this keeps happening, it will add up).   Thanks for any insights.
    (I'm REALLY technically challenged!)

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • My computer has lost its sound

    My computer was working fine yesterday, but something has happened that made it silent. I've checked the little speaker icon in the menu bar, and I've checked "System Preferences">Sound, and the settings seem to be in order. Since my computer is only about two weeks old, I have to assume that I must have done something wrong, but what?

    This pops
    up from time to time where another app changes the
    MIDI sound preferences and as a result, your sound
    vanishes. Try opening Garage Band and playing one of
    the sample loops. This resets the prefs to the
    defaults and if that was the cause of the missing
    sound, you sound will return.
    I couldn't find any sample loops, but that's probably because I've never even clicked once before on Garageband. I did manage to play some notes on a keyboard, but that didn't help. Still, your advice sounds good, and I'll fool around with Garageband when I get back from a trip I have to make tomorrow. Thanks for the tip. I hope this isn't a sample of what my MacBook is going to be putting me through in the future. I never had anything like this with my iMac.

  • G4 dual 500 os9.2 has lost its' sound!

    No chime, no itunes, no misic. Did clean install.....same result. History: there was this lightning storm and after everything worked then 4hrs. later no sound.???
    thanks in advance, OB

    Old bones, welcome, first make sure the computer is not set to Mute, now do you have any external speakers, a microphone or any other device plugged into the ports if so remove them. Also you might try plugging something in them to see if that works.
    Now try resetting the PMU.
    Also do you have adequate surge protectors.

  • MacBook Airport card has lost its IP address and won't connect to my network

    The Airport card on my MacBook has lost its IP address and will not connect to my network. It worked fine until about two or three days ago. Network Diagnostics says that the Airport now has a self-assigned IP number and will not connect to the Internet. I can't find any info anywhere that tells me how to restore the IP number, and I don't get how it can have a self-assigned number and not connect. I have AT&T U-Verse, and my iMac desktop and two iPhone 4s connect with little difficulty. The MacBook is three years old, and AppleCare just expired two months ago. I'm still running 10.6.8 on both machines. I found an article saying that sometimes DHCP leases expire, but my desktop still works ifne, and I've had both connected to the same network since the same time. The artcicle said that more than one machine can share an IP address, so I wanted to try to enter the desktop IP address into the laptop, but I can't find a way to do so, either. Any thoughts?

    Have you tried making a New Location for each yet? The Automatic one get confused easily.
    Some "nix" to try when it happens also...
    sudo ipconfig set en1 BOOTP;sudo ipconfig set en1 DHCP
    sudo ifconfig en1 down;sudo ifconfig en1 up
    Sometimes having an all OFF Location can help, thanks to Gnarlodious...
