My volume on the Iphone 3GS is very low is it an equipment problem, setting problem or update problem?

My volume on the iPhone 3GS is very low. Is it an equipment problem, settings problem or update problem? And, is there a fix other than having Apple fix it?

Have you had a look here to make sure it is set up how you want it...

  • The volume of the iphone4 receiver is very low outside.

    When I need to talk with someone, i need to find very very quite place without any noise.  two or three person's voise are enough to stop the communication between I and other end of the phone. So, usually, I am not pick the phone outside. I don't know why, but I want to clerify,my hearing are very sensitive,and young. I think what wrong with my phone.

    Honestly, I cannot remember how loud the lock sound was before I updated to iOS 6 since I updated weeks ago. But the volume on my lock sound seems to be the same as it was before I updated.
    Have you tried rebooting your iPad? You could also try resetting all of your settings and see if that makes a difference.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

  • Iphone speaker is very low

    Dears,
    Why is the iphone speaker is very low compared with the rest of available brands in the market?
    Sometime I can't hear the caller especially when I was in street.
    Is there any application could be useful ?
    Thank you

    IDK if it;s a problem or not, but when I was in the Apple Store a few weeks ago, I played with 3 iPhones, specifically the speaker phone option and I too noticed that the speaker phone option isn't as loud as my current phone's (v500 motorola)

    If you're talking about the physical button, bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • Bottom row of the keyboard is not working in a vertical orientation on the iPhone 3Gs. the "slide to unlock" and all keys on the calculator on both orientation works fine. I can use the keyboard on horizontal orientation.

    Bottom row of the keyboard is not working in a vertical orientation on the iPhone 3Gs. the "slide to unlock" and all keys on the calculator on both orientation works fine. I can use the keyboard on horizontal orientation. The tabs on bottom of all apps also work fine.
    I have already tried holding down the power button and home button for 10 seconds, but no difference.

    I've had this problem on and off for the last few weeks (around, but not directly related, to upgrade to 6.1...can't remember if was before or after)....I'm very convinced it's a software problem (as there have been times when the bottom row works perfectly, without any need to "press" differently or anything).
    However, it seems to be a rather resilient software issue, as a full restore does not consistently fix it, and it applies to more than just the keyboard; if I open a drawing app, there's definitely a row (about 4mm up from the edge of the screen closest to home button) where I cannot draw.
    It's happened 4 times now.  Originally it went away with a restore from backup, then worked for 2 more days.  The second and third times, it went away with a full restore (although I did two full restores in between those two restores that did nothing, so restore didn't consistently fix it)....and it seemed to return in the most random of circumstances. 
    I paid very close attention to what apps I was using the last time it was working so that I could spot which app, if any, might be causing the issue.  I deleted several apps, I stopped using the games and many other apps.   I only used three apps between it working fine and starting up as a problem again: mail, safari and messages.
    I was convinced it was mail, as it happened this morning when I picked up my phone off the bedside table to respond to a new email.  It was working when I went to bed.  I picked up the phone when it buzzed, hit the email app, hit reply and started to type....**** bottom row wasn't working again.
    However, tonight I did 2 things....one of them worked because it went back to normal (sorry, I don't know which as I was exasperated and trying a number of things). 
    The two things I did between a broken keyboard and a working keyboard were:
    1) adding a second keyboard (English(Canada)), changing to this keyboard, and changing back
    2) disabling Siri...and then turning it back on...and then disabling Siri's "Raise to Speak"
    In retrospect, I wonder if it actually was the "Raise to Speak" that was putting the phone into a weird state, and might explain why the phone would just "suddenly" start behaving strangely when I picked it up.  Of note, the "raise to speak" hasn't actually triggered Siri to come on in months anyway.
    Regardless, the keyboard is back to normal now...and I'm just going to leave "Raise to Speak" off.  I've put the keyboard back to just "English" with no alternates and Siri remains on otherwise without issue.

  • I can hear a slight lose part when I tap the back top of the iPhone 3GS?

    I have the iPhone 3GS, gave my wife my old 3G. when I tap with my finger on the top of the 3GS up above the apple logo on the back I hear a slight rattle (or what seems to sound like a lose part inside the unit).
    When I do the same tap my wife 3G it sound solid with no slight rattle inside?
    Is it possible the compass component inside the phone or a different accelerometer Apple may of used (like a mercury switch) that may has a slight rattle?
    I know this may seem trivial, but now I find myself tapping my phone and pondering if I have a lose part. The phone works great otherwise???
    Thanks

    Check the Ring/Silent switch above the volume rocker switch. It could be loose.

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your phone. Only if you back up manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Do this:
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your device without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
