Speakerphone output too quiet on iPhone 6
I can hardly hear the other side on iPhone 6 when I turn on the speakerphone, even at max volume.
I'm exactly the same. Using the latest app update, and the latest iOS, I can barely hear on my iPhone 6. Looked at every volume setting I can find but nothing has helped.
Googling the problem, it looks like the same thing happened when the iPhone 5 came out and there was a pretty quick response. Now..... not so much....

Toshiba 22DV501B SPDIF output too quiet
I recently purchased a Toshiba 22DV501B which I want to plug into my hi fi amp. I purchased a Cablesson® SAP-3 Digital to Analogue Audio Converter and plugged it in. It works, but the volume is so low I need to turn my amp right up to hear it.
Is there any way of altering the volume of the SPDIF digital out?
CheersI don't believe that's possible, but I don't have specific information on that model because it appears to be from the UK. This site only officially supports the US region. You might want to contact Toshiba UK.

Headphone jack too quiet in replacement iPhones
The lock screen button on my original iPhone started sticking, so I took it to the warranty service. They decided to replace it with a new one.
The problem with the new unit was that the headphone jack was too quiet, and the phone was thinner. We verified this by comparing it to two other original 4S units.
For sound, we used the the same track and the same headphones on all phones. You can really hear that my new replacement was at least twice as quiet. And yes, we've made sure all the settings and iOS / app versions are identical.
As for the thickness, we tried my Olloclip on all the phones, and it straight up falls off the replacement unit, while holding firmly on the other ones. Also, made sure there were no screen protectors on either side of the iPhones.
So, there you go, two of the main use cases for me are now impossible - photography and music.
Took it back to the service. They confirmed the faults and replaced the phone again. With a unit with both of the same problems. When confronted again, they now declined, claiming the defects are not there. So on two separate occasions the service first confirmed, and then declined the very same faults.
Has this happened to anyone? How do you go about this? Are the replacements sent by apple supposed to be like that?FYI, I bought the Griffin AutoPilot in order to hook our 4g nano to our car stereo and I didn't need the included audio cable. However I put it to use with our speakers in our bedroom which are simple ones that don't directly support the iPod. With the cable that came with the speakers we had this problem - couldn't plug in a dock cable and the audio cable at the same time. The audio cable that came with the AutoPilot has a much slimmer connector and it does the trick.

WHen I export my GarageBand files to a ringtone, they always seem to be quieter than the other preset ringtones. I am using v2.0.6 on an iPad mini with 1.3 GB left, 16GB total. Will there be a fix/is there a workaround? Also, I would like to be able to delete my previous ringtones w/o a computer.

If your phone is still under warranty, I'd make an appointment at the Genius Bar.
2) The ringer, even cranked up with an obnoxious ringtone, is way too quiet. If the phone is in my jacket pocket, or more then 15 feet away I will never hear it. In contrast, my husband's el-cheapo free cell phone rings and I can hear it through my whole home.
I find the audible rings to be very loud on the iPhone. If you're having problems hearing them, you may have a defective phone. -
Mic too quiet in calls - even with headphones?
I like to make skype calls with my friends, i use my iPhone 6 on ios 8.1 for this... They have been complaining that my mic is too quiet and they cannot hear me. i tried plugging in apple headphones and using the remote mic, but it made no difference. Weirdly my mic works fine when i use it in the voice memo app or when recording a video... It seems to be just during facetime and skype calls... No one has complained that it's bad during a cellular call either so i assume its fine then.
i Have found no solution to this and have tried a restore, reboot... And i tried deleting and reinstalling skype...
any suggestions would be appreciated. ThanksHI, just to add to this... it seems to work fine on wifi but not on 3g? Could this be caused by a poor internet connection? Thanks

Dear Sony, now I'm a happy owner of a brand new Z1C and it's a really perfect gadget BUT for one thing - it's waaaay too quiet in headphones. I tried different models with different impendance and sensitivity characteristics to no avail.
I then run it through my soundcard 1/4" jack along with my Iphone 5 and Cowon D2 under following conditions:
- line input at soundcard remained untouched for all 3 devices
- volume maxed out on test subjects
- default players were used, all sound enhancers and EQs off
- 20sec of same track played and recorded in adobe audition on a separate track for each device
The resulting waveform and it's parameters are in the attached pics.
D2
IP5
Z1C
As you can see, Z1C with its volume maxed out turned out ~9 times quieter than Cowon D2 and ~3.5 times quieter than Iphone5 (as far as "percieved loudness" is concerned). But you got to be no sound engineer to tell how bad things are just by visual comparison of waveforms' amplitude...
This makes me think of 3 possible reasons:
1. I have some problems with my Z1C's audio hardware
2. The volume on Z1C is limited by its hardware
3. The volume on Z1C was somehow limited by firmware
If it's no.3 - are there any ways to get rid of those limitations and make it sound louder?
Would be thankful for any hints.
Best regards,
DenisHello Richdog,
I think the issue is the phone not different headphones, since the Volume is an ABSOLUTE measurement made by Denis... he probably used a 3.5mm Jack cable (line in) to plug to the computer and measure with the same audio file...
So yes, maybe better headphones sound louder and better, but they will also be even louder on the compared deviced...
I think sony did this on purpose to comply with Hearling Laws from different countries.... My Acro S is frequently displaying a Volume Warning that automatically drops the volume to about 50%... So maybe Sony put this limit as the 100% on the Z1 Compact.
I hope this can be "fixed" in a future software update. -
Downloaded ringtones too quiet?
i downloaded two tingtones to iphone but i can barely hear my phone ring when i use them --the normal tones are much louder someone suggested its due to the fact the iphone has a lousy speaker --music is inteneded to be listened through headphones. Any one else have this problem??
I think that the difference comes from Dynamic Range Compression in the audio tracks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiolevelcompression). I made one ringtone out of an old classical recording, and it is way too quiet. I made another one out of a more recent rock song, and it was plenty loud.
I also think that the little built in speakers are better at playing certain frequencies than others. For example, songs with a lot of low end are going to sound very quiet because those portions are just getting left out. -
A few months back I Dropped my iPhone 4 and I cracked my screen and now i cant unlock my phone due to touch screen not working plus there are blurred lines across the screen and I can't see anything that it displays.
Now when I try too connect my iPhone 4 to iTunes on my computer at home an error message comes up saying that I have to unlock my iPhone 4 for it to communicate to my device.
But the problem is that I can't unlock my iPhone 4 because I'm unable to see the key pad and my touch screen no longer responds when I touch it.
I just want to reset my iPhone 4 back to its Factory Settings & start all over from the beginning.
How can I unlock my iPhone 4 with iTunes on my computer or any other option you suggest me trying.
Thank you in advance,
SiHeroIf you have had a "local guy "repair your iphone you will not get any support from Apple for warranty OR post warranty
If Verizon return it to Apple it wil not be handled by Apple
If Verizon also use unauthorised repairers you may be lucky
(Apple do not sell parts to local guys or anyone else ) -
I had already update mi new factory unlocked iPhone 4S to iOS 5.1.1 and I still having problems with "invalid sim". I'm from Argentina and here we don't have official service. PLEASE HELP ME, WHAT CAN I DO??? In Argentina is too expensive an iPhone 4S. Please I need help to continue believing in Apple. Thanks a lot. If anybody speak spanish better.
Was it purchased from an official Apple Store, not a reseller? Only Apple Stores sell official factory unlocked phones. The others sell hacked to unlock phones, and the unlocking is unstable.
Try these steps, as needed:
1. Reset phone - press both home and on/off buttons for at least 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
3. Replace SIM card (and reset network settings again)
4. Restore Phone in iTunes using a backup
5. Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup -

Hello apple
I have the problem with my iPhone and my friends have this problem too.
My iPhone have the problem about calling and answer the call. When I use my iPhone to call I can't hear anything from my iPhone but the person that I call can answer it but when answer both of us can't hear anything and when I put my iPhone to my face the screen is still on and when I quit the phone application and open it again it will automatic call my recent call. And when my friends call me my iPhone didn't show anything even the missed call I'm only know that I missed the call from messages from carrier. Please check these problem I restored my iPhone for 4 time now in this week. I lived in Hatyai, Songkhla,Thailand and many people in my city have this problem.
Who have this problem??Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

Lg cosmos 2 downloaded music is too quiet
What could be the problem with music being too quiet, and how do I fix it? I literally can barely hear it when I put my ear right next to the phone.
Thank you.Hi.
Thanks for replying. I received the phone in October; just had it replaced a couple of weeks ago because it wasn't holding a charge. Both phones do the same. No protective case or cover. Ring tones are nice and loud, phone "voice" is fine, I can hear my callers with no problem. It's just the downloaded music that is so soft I can barely hear it. I even tried moving a ring tone that was proven over to music folder to see what would happen. It was soft there as well. I've looked online for ideas but haven't found any help. -
Audio clips too quiet at max volume
After putting audio from STP into an FCP project, some friends and I turned the volume all the way up in the audio editor window. Even after doing that, however, it's still way too quiet. Is there any other way to raise the volume so that the audio is loud enough?
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1.42 GHz Power PC G4 1GB DDR SDRAMI have never liked that "duplicate the track" to make it louder method. When you duplicate the track, you're also duplicating the noise floor, making the background noise twice as loud, too.
If you've got the audio track open in Soundtrack Pro, use the compression plugin, or dynamics, or whatever they call it in Soundtrack (I use Cubase). Use that to bring the level up. What you'll also get with the compression plugins (not the same as video compression, don't worry about that) is it will bring the low level audio up and the high level audio down to even it out. It won't raise the noise floor as much because when audio drops below a certain level (set this right ABOVE your noise floor/room noise) it stops raising the low level audio. That way you have a more even level throughout the track. How does the mix of the announcers on the NFL on FOX always sound so good when it's live? Compression. Keep your levels in check.
So use the compression plugins to even out your sound, maxing out at about -1db. Export it.
Now, import that track into FCP and bring the level DOWN to -12ish.
Much cleaner and audio way of raising levels. Duplicating the clip to make it louder is not the way an audio facility would do it. It's a quick video guy way of doing it. It does the job, but not well. -
The music on my iPod plays at normal volume but the voices are too quiet to hear
My iPod just started to play music at normal volume but the voices are too quiet to hear
If you confirmed it is not due to a problem with the headphones
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
