My iPhone has no sound (apart from alarms); yet it plays through headphones. What can I do to restore normal functions?

I use my iPhone 4 regularly with headphones and their controls. Now, however, the iPhone doesn't play any sounds on its own, except for alarms.
I have powered on and off; i have made sure that the volume control is set correctly; but so far i have not been able to restore normal sound functions to the phone.
Can anyone please advise me as to what to do? I have not heard about such a problem before.

I have the same issue. Phone rings with calls and alarm works but no sounds with tweets, messages...etc
Tried sleep-wake with Home button reset.. Tried full restore from back up. Mute slider makes no difference.
When in settings/ sounds and I try to select alert sounds I can feel the Vibrate with each selection but no sounds.
Any ideas?

HT204380 Bought my Iphone in middle east and there's no facetime icon.. What can I do to restore it? Thank you!

Good day!
I bought my Iphone in middle east and found out there's no facetime icon,
what can I do to restore it?
Thank you!

Facetime is blocked in UAE and KSA per government regulations.
Restriction is based on serial number and taking the iPhone to
another country will not allow installation of FaceTime. There have
been reports of gray market iPhones being sold in the middle east
which do have FaceTime. Such iPhones have no warranty and
usually have been hacked to operate in the Middle East which
causes all sorts of problems.

Syncing Iphone and Iphone has deleted ALL contacts from Outlook - Help!

I have on many occassions synced my Iphone without issue.
This time syncing the IPhone has deleted ALL the contacts on the hone and WITHIN Outlook.
Can I regain the lost contacts safely from the back up?
I have over 300 contacts and don't want to have to copy them all in manually.
Any advice will be appreciated.
Cheers
Tony

Restore the missing contacts file on your PC from your PC backup.
Or, it you've backed up your iphone to icloud or itunes, you can try performing a restore of the iphone.

All sounds besides ringer do not work. Video has no sounds. When i send video to someone else, they can hear sound. Iphone 4s

All my sounds have stpped working. Only ringer sound works. When I send video file to someone, they can ear sound. I cant hear it. I have iphone 4s... please help

Just had this occure as you described: ringer only all other sounds mute. The second time this has happened. A simple reboot (turn off and on) restored normal functionality. the first time I read some post but don't remember how I restored it then so I am back here again. Seems like the problem and fix is different for different people, but this time for me a reboot did it.

I found a fix for it, It turned out that the file that lists all of the songs on it got corrupt. I had to use 3rd party programs but it did work out in the end
Here is a link to where I found the fix: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3631590?start=0&tstart=0
I followed the instructions of Geekdad3 a little bit lower on the page.
Good luck for anyone else who has this problem

The text has disappeared from my emails in my inbox. What can I do to get the text back?

Try closing the Mail app via the taskbar and see if the email text shows when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't fix it they try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I am a lucky customer of two of these storms....once which arent 3 weeks old and the first one the one that was my phone locked up in the first week and i was mashing the screen not hard and the **bleep** thing broke...well verizon says you have 30 days till you can no longer buy the phone insurance and who would of thought in my first week the **bleep** touch screen would break by me tapping on it trying to get the locked up software to respond....and guess what verizon said there is nothing they can do to a phone with a cracked screen....and also both phones blackberrry storms that were sent to me were used equipement. but I am still repsponsible for the two contract agreement and I cant even use the **bleep** phone...also they say you can add insurance within 30 days of new purcchase not the phone that was malfuntioned and the screen cracked....but they let me add it to the second line....i think its very dirty of verizon to send used phones with two contracts to someone and it malfuntion like that and not replace the phone...and still hold the customer responsible for two year contract...after all the **bleep** trouble the storms have been giving customers...thats why they are sending the **bleep** things out free of charge...dont get scammed and screwed like I did go with Tmobile or att..

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
