My ringing volume is fine but i cant hear people very well when i call them

my ringing volume is fine om my phone but when i call someone i cant hear them very well its very low ive tried turning volume on side to maximum but still no luck

You are probably pressing mute button and don't know it, look at Proximity sensor problem posts.
If this doesn't work, you can try to play around with the earphones more (i.e. plugging it in and unplugging it several times). Maybe it works.

  • Ring volume low & people cant hear me very well even on speaker???

    Howdy, I have a iphone 4 version 4.3.5 (not sure how to find operating system..) I am having problems with the volume. The incoming call ring is really low, I have increased it to max in the settings with no luck and people are finding it hard to hear me? I just hooked it up to itunes to sync. I am not sure if there is a problem with the speakers at the bottom - how do I take the back or bottom off - maybe it needs a clean out. or Is there a download update?
    I am not very iphone savy so any assistance wld be appreciated.
    Cheers

    The fact that it works with Facetime means your microphone works.
    You can try resetting your iPhone by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Can hear in sounds but can't hear message beep or when incoming call

    I took my phone to a phone shop and the gentleman advised me to update my software, still nothing is happening

    Hello ther,e Shar-k09.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great, additional steps to try for troubleshooting issues with sound on your iOS device:
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.

    Hi Kel134,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are having microphone issues on your iPhone when you place a call to someone and they cannot hear you unless you activate the speaker function. In this situation I would recommend the steps in the following article to help isolate and resolve the situation. 
    iPhone: Microphone issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
    Resolve the issue
    Follow these steps, testing after each.
    Make sure nothing is plugged in to the jack connector.
    Make sure nothing is blocking any of the microphones (refer to the pictures below to find your device's microphones). Check for these:
    Dirt or debris
    A screen protector or case
    When you're holding your phone next to your ear, make sure you don't block the microphone with your fingers or shoulder and make sure to speak into the microphone
    Turn the iPhone off and then on.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    If necessary, find general iPhone hardware troubleshooting suggestions.
    For further assistance, contact Apple Support.
    I hope this helps,

    Hello i recently got a new phone iphone5s and i can hear someone call me perfectly fine but they cant hear me and also the phone wont recognize the headphones. it would treat it like the headphones arnt in and also i tried to make a video and cant hear myself speak

    Hello Sylviaxox,
    It seems you are experiencing an issue with the microphone of your iPhone. That does sound troublesome. The following article provides troubleshooting guidance which may help you find a solution:
    If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Fix common issues
    Follow these steps, testing after each with Voice Memos.
    Unplug anything plugged into the headset jack.
    If you're on a call and holding your phone next to your ear, speak into the microphone and make sure you don't block it with your fingers or shoulder.
    If you're using a screen protector or case that covers the microphone, remove it. Clear any debris from the microphones.
    Restart your device.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    If you've tried these steps and people still can't hear you well on calls, contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • Hi Guys,  My iPhone is stuck in a mode where it thinks the headset is still plugged in.   I cant get any sounds through the speaker. Cant hear sms or emails arrive. If the phone rings i hear it but pple cant hear me or i cant hear them.  The phone works f

    Hi Guys,
    My iPhone is stuck in a mode where it thinks the headset is still plugged in.
    I cant get any sounds through the speaker. Cant hear sms or emails arrive. If the phone rings i hear it but pple cant hear me or i cant hear them.
    The phone works fine with the headphones plugged in.
    I have tried all the usual solutions, inserted and removed the headset (at least 50 times)
    Soft reboot
    full restore
    Nothing seems to work. I have searched on this and it seems to be a well know issue but there doesnt seem to be any firm solutions that i can find to fix the problem

    If no change after inserting and removing the headset at least 50 times, powering the iPhone off and on, an iPhone reset, and restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

    Hey shahbazfromgbr,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having issues with sound output on your iPhone 4S. For troubleshooting steps, the following article provides the best information:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
    1. Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    2. Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    3. While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
    4. Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
    5. For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
    6. If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    7. Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    8. If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (choose Settings > General > Bluetooth).
    9. Restart the iPhone.
    10. If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    11. If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How come i can hear my friend on ichat but she cant hear me?

    how come i can hear my friend on ichat but she cant hear me?

    Hi,
    Several possibles.
    1) The Mic (or Audio) item in the Video Menu is Off (unticked)
    2) The Selection in  App (iChat or Messages) menu > Preferences > Video section > Microphone Drop down  is not pointing to a Mic that is active.
    3) The Mic selection in System Preferences > Sound > Input tab is not the same device in the app and/or the volume is not set high enough.
    In System Preferences > Sound > Input tab the blue response bar must get to at least halfway (preferably 3/4s) but not bang in to the right hand end.
    The Mic should be the one select in the app itself.
    IF you are using a headset then change both the System Preferences > Sound > Input to anything else but the headset mic.
    Then do the same if the app.
    Then go back to the System Preferences and "Set" that "First" and then do the App "Second"
    Repeat the same process for the output options in both places.

    Assuming you mean that you opened the phone and replaced something inside, there's not much anyone here can recommend.
    Find a competent repair shop or buy a new phone. Apple won't touch that one now.

    Your call of course but IMO a waste of money. Please read this first:
    There are many forms of ‘Malware’ that can affect a computer system, of which ‘a virus’ is but one type, ‘trojans’ another. Using the strict definition of a computer virus, no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions. The same is not true of other forms of malware, such as Trojans. Whilst it is a fairly safe bet that your Mac has NOT been infected by a virus, it may have another security-related problem, but more likely a technical problem unrelated to any malware threat.

    Hi Bignut69,
    I recommend the troubleshooting steps in this article if the microphone on your iPhone is not working:
    Make sure nothing is plugged in to the jack connector.
    Make sure nothing is blocking any of the microphones (see the pictures below to locate the microphones on your device)
    Make sure none of the microphones is obstructed by dirt or debris.
    Turn the iPhone off and then on.
    Make sure that the latest version of iOS is installed.
    If necessary, find general iPhone hardware troubleshooting suggestions.
