Speaker during calls

When using the phone for calls/voicemail, I can hear a fuzzy background noise whenever a sound occurs, but if, for example the person on the other end stops talking for a few seconds, the sound goes away. Also, I noticed that at certain angles, the top and bottom speakers look different, almost like there is a small film covering part of the top speaker..?

  • IPhone 5 speaker turns off during call

    32gb iPhone 5.  When on speaker during call, switches automatically back to iPhone inadvertently.  On call with only one person.  No incoming calls causing issue. 
    Tested on other calls by putting phone on solid surface without touching. Not a PIBPAC error. Please advise if you're experiencing similar issue and how you solved for it. Thank you

    I figured out a solution. Apparently it was a software malfunction. I got the toll free number off the web (1-800-MY-APPLE) and called and gave them my information. They gave me three different options to send my phone in for repair or replacement. The entire replacement process took a out 5 days from the day I called to the day I received the new phone and ended up costing me absolutely nothing. The apple support team was very friendly, courteous, and knowledgable. A software malfunction sounds like it could be your issue, you may want to look into this! Hope this helped!

  • Buzzing during calls

    Hi guys,
    I've noticed that there's a buzzing sound in my ear speaker during calls (similar to the noise that you hear when you put your phone next to a speaker and a text comes or your phone is exchanging some data).
    I hope it's not normal and I can do something about it ?

    THANK YOU!
    I was about to bring the phone to repair. In my case the noise was really BAD, like if the membrane of the speaker was damaged and was somehow vibrating.
    Is there any good use of this setting? I mean, to me it only causes problems, I cannot understand why Sony offer such a terrible option.
    On the other side, try the "slow talk" option, super cool.
    I am living in Germany and my German is not so good, with this option I ear slowly and can understand better.
    I personally also find interesting the "smooth" setting in the EQ, to avoid a much bright and noisy sound.

  • IPhone 4 Mic & Speaker not Working during Call

    Hello All,
    I have iphone 4 and it was locked on at&t and was running ios 5.0.1, now i have unlocked my iphone and now i am using ios 5.1.1. But i have a problem, when i call someone i cant hear anything "no dial tone sound and no sound during call" & speaker mode is also not working and nor the person cant hear my voice. I also tested on my another phone but same problem.....
    So can you tell me is this a hardware problem or software problem ?? and yeah i can record voice memos and i can listen my memos with speaker on and off
    Waiting for reply....

    Do the basic troubleshooting steps described in the User Guide:
    1.  Reset iPhone (no data loss): Press both home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
    2.  Restore in iTunes using a backup
    3.  Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup.
    If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware failure.

  • IPhone 5c IOS7.0.3, other people can no longer hear me during calls unless I tap into speaker mode and back?

    Hi,
    I'm currently using an iPhone 4S, but my partner has just bought an iPhone 5c. A while ago, before the IOS7 upgrade, my phone would for some reason act as if I had clicked mute during calls. Nobody would hear me, but I could hear them perfectly. The only fixes were to hang up and recall them back, or to switch it to speaker mode and back again. Very annoying. However, after updating my IOS, it suddenly stopped doing this. It was fixed, I was happy, game on.
    But recently, my partners phone which was working perfectly fine before the new IOS7.0.3 update, has developed this problem. Exact same issue, exact same solution. I wouldn't mind so much, but shes bought this phone in the last month, its a brand new phone, new software, new model... It shouldn't still be doing this! Whats worse is that when driving, its very dangerous for her to have to keep switching between speaker and not just to get her phone working. (She drivers with the phone in a cradle with hands free on).
    This issue is... Annoying. I've found that its not exactly a rare thing, and that a lot of people have had it for quite a while, but the only solution I've seen is to open the back of your phone and cover a certain part with paper/cardboard... Not exactly what we want to do is it.
    Does anybody have any advice or a solution to this, as I'm going a little crazy trying to reset everything and fix it!
    Thanks in advance!

    Same issues here. Sometimes during outgoing calls, people cannot hear me at all, even when the signal strength is good. Only solution is to soft reset the phone. A couple of times the person could hear me for the first few seconds of the call then it dropped completely.
    I also experience the issue with the 3G data as you described (I think they are related... i.e., when the 3G data isn't working, the issues with outgoing calls exists too). The phone will just randomly seem to lose it's internet connection, even with full signal strength. Soft reset/toggling airplane mode fixes this.
    I called Apple support; they asked if I was covering the microphone during outgoing calls (as if I'm that stupid). Come on Apple, I have a University degree in Computer Engineering, don't insult my intelligence! They then asked me to restore the phone (which I already did). Next solution they offered me was to replace the phone by sending me a new one first (at a cost of $35), or I could send it back and be phoneless for a week while they send a new one (which is not an option for me). I also put on a $30 Invisibile Sheild so if I exchange it, I already lose that. I believe the issue is not with the hardware, since the microphone seems to work just fine. Given that it is intermittent like this, it seems there's a software/firmware error somewhere that gets the phone into a bad state.
    Very disappointed that the $800 phone I just bought functions worse for phone calls than the Nokia brick I had 8 years ago.
    If anyone has a permanent solution for this that doesn't involve exchanging the phone, please let me know.

  • Speaker mode is full of static during calls

    My iphone 6 iOS8.0.3 has speaker phone problems. When the phone is in speaker mode and this is only during phone calls, the sound is full of static. This also occurs when my phone is in bluetooth mode during calls. I can play music just fine. Weird.

    I went to the Apple Store and they reset the firmware and restored the phone as well.  I am still having the issues. They said the phone was fine and to keep using it for a week.  If there were still issues then to come back and they would run another test to see if the phone was picking up any issues with the reception.  The guy that helped me said that his phone sometimes has an echo for a couple of days and then it goes away.  I am wondering if it is a problem with Rogers.  I am interested to see that you are having similar issues. The static when it comes is a little annoying. It must be a software issue.

    There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
    Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

    In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

  • Xperia Z1 speaker/mic issue when speaker phone switched on during call

    when i switch on the speaker during a call the voice  is garbled and the  call receiver also complains of voice being not clear. Is this issue something other z1 users .  pls advcie

    I have a problem with the microphone as well, if i'm on a call and i try to hold my phone between my shoulder and ear in order to multitask, the person on the other end hears only garbled words and makes it impossible to not hold phone normally, I believe it's due to the pressure on the mic. Spoke to Sony about this and tried a complete reset of phone with no success. Was going to send it in to Sony for repairs, but they offer no loaner devices so I sent it in to Rogers as it's only 2 weeks old and under full warranty. Waiting to see what comes of it. Will repost upon return of phone.

  • 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.

  • Microphone not working on my iphone 4s  unless i'm on speaker or using headphones during calls both incoming and outgoing?

    During calls incoming and outgoing I can hear the other person but they cannot hear me unless I am on speaker phone or am using headphones?

    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, resest, restore from backup, restore as new.
    If you still have problems after going through ALL the recommended troubleshooting steps, then you likely have a hardware issue.  You'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

  • My iPhone 5 crackles and pops loudly during calls (with and without speaker phone.)  I'm experiencing this same same issue on my third iPhone.  Is this a common problem?  Short of getting the phone replaced (yet again!) is there a solution?

    My iPhone 5 frequently crackles and pops loudly during calls (while using speaker phone, as well as not using speaker phone.)  After being inspected by techs at the Genius Bar, my phone has been replaced twice; thus, I am currently on my third iPhone 5.  Incredibly, I am, yet again, experiencing the exact same issue. Short of getting my fourth iPhone, is anyone aware of a solution?

    if it's the exact same issue, either it's a problem with your service or with your software if you're restoring from a backup each time. it's pretty darn near impossible for 3 phones to have the same exact hardware issue, so that's unlikely. is this an at&t iphone? if so, are you continuing to use the same sim card? if so, get a new one and try that out. if that's not the issue, restore the phone as new and make a few phone calls. if the issue's gone away, there's something wrong with your backup

    2. Found speaker phone turn on by them self during call and talking. (Don't touch anything.)

     @Jetfighter.
     Please refer to JCCPRJ's post and the link he provided.
    Also refer to Azizshroff's post, as it appears to be caused by Fring.
    However, you don't have to uninstall Fring to solve the issue, you just have to disable it's automatic start up at system boot option.

  • N8: Speaker switches on during call

    Hi
    I am having this problem all the time: speker switches on during call. I still have the speaker icon visible on display, when I press it turns to phone icon and nothing happens. When I press it again I am connected to "little" speaker. This is annoying.
    I have also a frend who reported about the same problem....any one here with this same problem.

  • I am having problems using my iphone4 during calls. When any part of my facial skin touches the screen, it would either go mute, hold, speaker or whatever part my skin accidentally touches the screen.The other caller then cant hear me

    I am having problems using my iphone4 during calls. The screen does not automatically lock to prevent any part of my skin or face from touching it. When my skin touches the screen it would either go mute, hold, divert to speaker phone or calls another in my contact list. The person i'm talking to then cannot hear me suddenly when in mute or hold. Is there any application for my iphone4 like a "screen lock" when it is being used on calls?
