Phone volume during calls

I cannot hear a thing when I'm on a call, even after raising the volume to the max. Is anyone else having this problem? I even suspected that I may be holding it wrong, and I find myself pressing my ear up to the phone, and still, can't hear the person on the line very well. Any solutions to this?

Did you remove the plastic cover from the screen? If not, did you make a "hole" where the ear speaker is??

How to control volume during call when hard buttons don't work?

I was wondering if there is another way to increase the volume during a call when the hard + volume button does not work. Only the - volume button works. Is there possibly an on screen volume button or another screen I can go to for in call volume control. While on a call using the speaker, the volume is so low I can barely hear the person I'm talking to but I can't increase the volume anywhere. Please help! It's so frustrating when you're using the speaker phone and you can't hear anything. What's the point?? I also decreased the volume on a regular call while testing the buttons and now that's so low I can't hear that way either. Help!

Double-click the Home button, swipe the icons at the bottom of the screen to the right twice and it should show a volume slider. Adjust the volume then press the Home button.

No volume during calls and music

I am unable to hear any volume at all during calls - both via the handset speaker and on speakerphone. I also can not hear music when played through the speakers. I have checked that the volume is turned up full. However, I am still able to hear alarms, ringtones and notification tones. I'm hoping that this is some sort of software issue. Is there any way this can be fixed?

Hi jb15, welcome to the community!
Did you check volumes under Settings > Sound & notification?
Also, if you press the volume up key, is the phone set to Silent, Priority or Sound?

Cannot adjust volume during calls on iPhone 6 (using EarPods)

I cannot adjust my volume on the iPhone 6 during the call on the EarPods. I can only adjust volume while the call is ringing or before a call, but once the person picks up, neither the phone's buttons or EarPods would adjust volume. It's once when I hang up and my music starts playing again, the music blasts my ear from the volume change I did (during the call).
The volume button works fine during calls when I don't use any earphones.
Is there a way to fix this?

Good Afternoon lopakamac,
If you are having trouble hearing a conversation on your iPhone, try the following steps:
If you can't hear a person on a call or voicemail or if the sound quality is poor on iPhone - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203800
Turn up the volume
While you're on a call, adjust the volume with the volume buttons:
Also while you're on a call, make sure that you can see the volume indicator on the screen when you press the volume buttons:
Check the connections
If your iPhone is connected to a headset, you won't be able to hear through the iPhone receiver or using speakerphone. Follow these steps, testing after each.
Make sure that you don't have anything plugged in to the headphone jack or the dock connector.
Go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn off Bluetooth.
Clear the receiver
The iPhone receiver won't work properly if it's blocked or dirty. Here's where the receiver is:
Follow these steps, testing after each:
Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver, such as a case or film.
If you have a new iPhone, remove the plastic film on the front and back of the device.
Check the receiver opening to see if it's blocked or dirty. If necessary, clean the receiver opening with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
While you're on a call, turn on speakerphone. If you still can't hear, then your network or reception could be the issue. Try calling again later or from a different location.
Restart and update
Restart your iPhone and test again.
If there's still no sound or poor sound quality, update to the latest version of iOS.
Get more help
If you've tried these steps and there's still no sound or poor sound quality from your iPhone, contact Apple Support.

Phone rebooted during call

Got the phone yesterday... Was out for a nice walk this moring talking to my mom on the phone and she went silent - looked down at the phone and the AT&T logo was there - the phone was rebooting. Had been on the phone for maybe 7-8 minutes and it had been up to my ear the whole time, so it wasn't a combination of anything on my part.
Only seen this once so hopeful it's a once off.
Nice phone Nokia - please stick to it and work out the kinks. Giving this phone a shot and I'm a potential long-term customer (have had nokia phones in the past when I lived in Europe)

Hi there,
First please backup your data and perform a soft reset on your phone (press and hold the volume down and power buttons) until the phone reboots and see if that solves your problem. If not, then perform a hard reset, as detailed here: http://mynokiablog.com/2011/11/08/how-to-hard-reset-nokia-wps-three-finger-restart/
There have been a fair share of problems reported of the AT&T variants of the 920, and a reset has often solved it. Try it and report back to us how it goes.
Failing the hard resets working, you will need to take your 920 back to your point of purchase, or if they are not helpful, then you will need to take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect.

ZTE Open C reboots during calls

The phone reboots during calls. OS version 1.3, latest according to ZTE.
Thing is, only when it is set to use 3G. But if I set to 2G the audio is absolutely terrible.
Both when using 2G and 3G sometimes the calls get cut-off on the receiver phone. I can hear the other person talking but the other person doesn't hear anything. This is another issue.
What can I do? The phone was bought from Ebay on September 2014.
Problem didn't start now, ZTE Ebay support said the issue was a SIM one. I recently changed to 3G because the noises in 2G are almost unbearable.

Hi Falconet,
I understand you are experiencing rebooting and call quality issues on your ZTE Open C device.
Since ZTE is responsible for the Firefox OS build specific to your device, I would suggest following their advice.
You may be able to request a new SIM card for your device by contacting your carrier support.
I hope this resolves your issue. Please let us know if you have any other questions about your Firefox OS device.
Thanks,
- Ralph

Hi,
What ZTE meant was changing carriers not just sim card. I can't do that for another 1.5 years. The reason they said is because the phone seemed fine for a while when using another carrier. Sadly, the SIM is fine since another SIM card from the same carrier does the same. Both are working fine on Android Phones.

I cannot turn up the volume during a phone call

My "+" button on the side of my phone is broken and I cannot turn up the volume during a phone call. Is there any other way to control the volume during phone calls?

After trying everything I gave up.
But just 5 minutes ago... I dropped by phone on the floor, not from high, just sitting on my chair at my pc desk...
And someone just called and i can hear them!!!
So...
for me, i guess it was really a piece inside that wasn't making a good connection and well...
I accidentally fixed it...
But I wouldn't reccomend you to drop it on purpose.
But maybe go to your nearest apple store, ask them to open it and see if everythin is in place inside?
cheers

My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button.

My Lumia Icon goes dark during calls and I cannot access the phone pad to unless I hit the power button. Because of this it makes it tough to put my phone on speaker or type in my v-mail password.

I've been trying to find a common denominator. It happens inconsistently. It never happened before the Denim update. When it does occur, the screen goes black immediately upon answering the call and doesn't come back until the call is ended by the calling party.
I thought it might be the proximity sensor, but when it's working normally I can see the screen go dark when it's at my ear and comes back when I take it away (tried it multiple times). I had Gestures Beta installed. I wondered if that could have an affect so I uninstalled it, but that didn't make any difference. I'm still stumped by the inconsistency. I haven't reset my phone as I didn't really want to go through that...

Noisy background noise when using speaker phone during calls

Hi
Phone: sony experia z3
Does anyone have the same issue as me when you use the speaker phone during calls?
There is a lot of background noise.The caller's voice also sounds echoish
When I turn off the speaker and switch back to normal call it noise disappeared, the the caller's voice is clear.

See if speaker voice enhancement is enabled.

Yes Verizon has contacted me by phone. I never scheduled a call time nor did I call them. They also are not making it easy to contact them through email. I need to discuss a way to assure that my phone is never called again during work hours without a prearranged meeting. I will not speak on the phone nor use a live chat. I want email as I want this documented offical and no other means offeres me that assurance. I'd also like to discuss comensation for being harrassed with phone calls.

Well if you pay your bill the calls would not happen.
You need only tell them not to call you during working time.
The Fair Debt Collections Practices Act states you must tell them it is not convenient.
Now if marketing calls you can opt out at the Verizon web portal under your My Verizon account.
You will not get compensation for them to call you. Nice try.
However they could just shut your phone off and then you will call them.
Email is not an option.
Good Luck

HT201401 Phone doesn't go blank during call - ear/face dialing during call

Help! My Iphone4 doesn't go blank during calls, resulting in ear/face dialing. I've had this problem since I took it out of the box. Anyone out there with this problem that was able to resolve it?

There is a proximity sensor near the front receiver/speaker on the front of the phone the is supposed to sense when you have raised your phone to your face during a call and turn off the screen. Your symptoms indicate there is something wrong with the proximity sensor on your phone. Try cleaning or removing your screen protector to be sure that isn't the culprit. If it isn't, make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store to have it looked at. (If you feel it was related to iOS 6, you could try restoring your phone first to see if that would help.)

Phone volume very low when recieving/making calls

I have the volume up all the way but can barely hear the person on the other end of a call. When I use the headset the volume is just fine and when I put it on speaker it seems to be OK as well. It is just when I have the phone up to my ear that I have problems hearing. Is there anything I can do to increase the ear speaker volume?

I'm suddenly having the exact, same problem with my iPhone 3G. I'm a Mac and iPhone "power user," and I know the device very, very well. (I also had an original iPhone for a year.)
Suddenly, the volume of calls on my iPhone 3G is extremely low. My Apple bluetooth headset and the speakerphone both work fine. But when I put the phone to my ear -- I can barely hear the caller.
I don't use a screen protector, my phone's never been dropped, and the volume's turned all the way up. (Yes, I've done so while a call is in progress.)
I was hoping to find a solution, here in the discussions. I'm completely stumped....
