My volume solution... Both handest and speaker...
I must say that I was not upset about the volume issue, though the speaker volume for speaker phone is pretty low. Well I have two solutions that work for me.
First, for the handset volume, I paired my bluetooth earpeice and can barely keep the volume at 50-60% without killing my ears. One problem solved.
Second, I drive a 07 4 door jeep wrangler and it has an auxillary input in the radio. I had been using it for my ipod. Well today while driving, my wife called me. I had the iPhone plugged in listening to some good 70s rock. The music faded as I hit answer call. Well I didn't think about the plug into the jeep stereo, and assumed the call would be answered on my earpeice. To my surprise, my wife's lovely voice was rocking the Jeep, and she could hear me clear as a bell. So now I have a great speaker phone.
Volume issues solved.
Also of note: Shure is coming out with an adapter in August to plug in your earphones that will add the phone functionality that the Apple earpeices have. Enjoy.
Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if better. If still problem, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare, make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean again with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

my phone will no longer play music through headphones or on speaker but will work when making a call on both headphones and speaker. Also when I plug in my iPhone to a jack that uses a power amp like external speakers it works fine. I have no idea whats going on i've restored it twice and still nothing.
did you update your phone?

Is there a Dedicated Volume for both ringer and mu...
I'm unalbe to find this option, but on ios, i was able to have seperate volumes for my ringer and music or media. I could have my music volume set high, while incoming allerts such as calls or messages set to a lower volume. Are these options available on the lumia 920?
Lumia 920
Seroius flaw....makes me wonder if software designers ever use these phones.
Why in the Hell can't I set the ringer colume, speaker phone volume, key touch volume, etc. separately?
-Wife goes thry the roof when I dial a call with the volume on 15.....they key touch tone should be able to be set independently.
-Key click when entering text....I want to hear it, but I don't want to bother everyone around me with hearing it.
I shouldn't have to reset the volume 4x to text, make a call, switch to speaker

IPhone 5s incoming call rings on both headsets and speaker while headsets plugged in
Why my iphone 5s rings on both speaker and headsets in incoming call, while the headsets plugged in the phone?
Hi Lucasethio,
That is expected behavior on a non-muted iPhone. If you mute/silence the ringer with the side switch, you should still hear the ringer through any plugged in headsets as well. You may also find the following article helpful:

[SOLVED]no sound in both headphone and speaker after update (alsa)
No sound after update. But, I can hear sound in headphone after install pulseaudio, while there is no sound in speaker (after plugging out headphone). I have tried some methods in related wiki articles, such as alsa and pulseaudio, but not works.
My enviroment is arch64, kde. I have installed lib32-alsa-plugins lib32-libpulse lib32-openal.
Anything others I can do? Thanks for advance.

XuYimin, can you please give more info on what you mean by "update (alsa)"? There is no "alsa" package in Arch as alsa & it's modules are part of the (linux) kernel.
As you have already gone into alsamixer to ensure the appropriate channels are unmuted & set at the desired level, have you also gone into your KDE systems settings -> Multimedia -> Audio and Video Settings & rechecked your settings?
sorry，it's really misleading in my words.what i want to say is 'no sound after update, and the sound system is alsa.'
i'm sure the approiate channels are unmuted. in the Video Setting, I tested all sound cards in the list, But i can't hear sound. -
Sound Coming From Both Headphone and Speaker (Elitebook 8460p)
I have windows 7 64-bit and when I plug headphones into the jack in the front right, the sound comes out of both the speaker and headphones. Here's what I've tried to fix the problem:
1) BIOS update to P20
2) Audio driver update to latest on HP site
3) Make headphones not the communication default
I'm running out of options here, and it seems like nothing will solve this. ThanksI've got the same problem as well. It's very frustrating. Does anyone have an answer?

I had to return my 8GB Iphone yesterday as the volume on the handset and speaker phone was absolutely poor! I need my phone for BUSINESS and not being able to hear is a large issue for me. The Apple salespeople at the store tried to keep me quiet and hushed me to the back for the return. I was by no means causing a scene just wanted to return it. The Apple techs and salespeople acknowledged the problem and said it has been the reason for most of the returns and were not sure of any updates. When the Store Manager came over to give me a credit he didnt speak one word to me. Sorta Rude...
I compared it to my Blackberry Curve and there is NO comparison of the headset volume or Speaker phone volume.
I am so dissapointed but will try generation 2 when it comes out! The Iphone is a great phone but Apple HAS to figure out the quirks and bugs.
For all you critics it is a Great phone and has some great tools and features but it is a PHONE and my MAIN purpose is to talk on it! And when you cant hear then their is a TRUE ISSUE. And yes I took the plastic off too.
I hope Apple gets this solved. As I would consider re-buying!
Cheers
BDOf course most believe it is a solvable issue. The problem is that for those of us that need to use this for the phone feature the majority of the time, volume is an absolute neccesity. The 14 day return period is running out and some of us do not have the luxury of having more than one cell phone that we can use for the phone purpose until the issue is resolved. Any why should anyone expect one to do that? The phone was $650 with tax, then $80 a month for something you cannot use daily, is truly asking a bit much unless you have money to burn.
I'm not knocking the iPhone, I think it is a great item, but as a phone, it needs to have appropriate volume. And if Apple is not talking and releasing a statement about it, why should anyone wait around for something that may or may not be fixed in the very near future or even how long 'very near' may be?.... Especially when you cannot even get two Apple reps to acknowledge their is an issue with the volume? -
Sound from both speakers and headset! How to fix?
Hi I've had this problem since buying my laptop early last year; whenever I skype call, all other sounds except for my call itself comes out through the speaker. Due to my mic being internal I am then forced to play games without sound and am unable to watch videos/ movies whilst skyping. I have googled this, and it appeared people has had identical issues in the past. However, the remedy for this issue does not work for me. I go into: Tools -> Options -> Audio Settings; but there is not option for Headphones/ Speaker. It only has speakers and headphones separately for me. Please help me as I have been unable to play games with sound/ watch videos for the past year while in skype (Which is extremely frequent). Thanks

My MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.2, only audio on the headset, and speaker mute. With Windows, the audio works in speaker and headphone jack. What is the problem? What's the solution?
There is probably a red light on inside your headphone port, indicating that the analog/digital switch in there is stuck in the digital position. Insert a headphone plug and wigle it around, especially in the horizontal plane, as you insert and remove it several times. This will usually unstick the switch and restore normal operation. If it doesn't, the machine will need to be repaired.
This has been a fairly common problem, but in most cases it is easily cured as described above. -

My bluetooth seems to have stopped working in my car. Both phone and car audio says it is connected but nothing comes through car speaker. I no longer have screen on iphone that says to choose audio source. How do I get that screen back?
Thanks, this was the clue I needed to figure it out.
From Settings you can pull up Control Center.
In Control Center you can enable "Access from within Apps" (also "Access from Lockscreen")
Now when I'm playing music, I can swipe up from the bottom and a little control center window slides up. Neat - this is new since my old iPod. On this window, the name of the current Bluetooth connection appears. Tap on that, and a list of connected Bluetooth items appears. I just tap on the one I want to connect to and I am now playing through the speakers I want.
