The call volume is extremely low. any fixes?

Whenever I try to make a call or recieve a call, I have to use speakerphone to hear the other person.  I've tried hard shut downs and returning the phone to factory defaults.  So far nothing has fixed it.  And no, there is nothing blocking my earpiece.  Is there any way to fix this without sending my phone in for service?

  • Satellite A100-532: microphone sound volume is extremely low

    I just bought Satellite A100-532 and I have a problem with sound input. I can't use microphone to chat with my friend on msn or even to record my voice on to the hard drive because the sound volume is extremely low.
    I tried turning up all the volume on the desktop and on the RealTek HD sound manager but did not help. Microphone is working perfectly fine as I can hear myself well on the speakers.
    Normally, with my old laptop (M30 series) I could use the Sound Recorder to record music which I play using Winamp or WinMediaPlayer but for this new laptop it does not detect any sound at all..just silence.
    Please advise.

    Hi
    You should check also the volume controls in the "Sound & Audio devices" in control panel.
    In the "Volume" tab please go to "Advanced".
    Then a "Volume control" should appear.
    Check if all controls are set to high level.
    Furthermore enter the "options" and "properties" and enable all volume controls.
    Change also to "recording" and enable there also all controls.
    Additional you should check if the all "recording controls" are set to high.
    Use "Advanced" option of mic and play around with the mic boost settings.
    I'm sure you will find the best settings for your mic recording

  • Iphone 5c call volume is very low. Any suggestions?

    My iphone 5c call volume is very low. While on a call, I can barely hear the person on the other line. It sounds like they are at 25% volume when the volume shows it is at 100% volume. They can hear me fine. I have tried resetting/restoring several times, the call volume is all the way up, and have even tried messing with the accessibility-->hearing aid setting. The only way to get by it right now is to have it on speakerphone, which works fine. This happens with every person I have talked with, even landlines. Any help greatly appreciated.

  • My sister had a problem with call volume being too low on the iPhone 5S.  Is the iPhone 6 louder?  Is anyone else feeling that call volume on iPhone 5S isn't loud enough?

    My sister had a problem with call volume being too low on the iPhone 5S.  Is the iPhone 6 louder?  Is anyone else feeling that call volume on iPhone 5S isn't loud enough?

    I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
    Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
    Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
    But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
    Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?

  • HT1849 hello i downloaded an album on my iPad yesterday but the sound volume is very low. Can you help me to fix the problem ?

    hello i downloaded an album on my iPad yesterday but the sound volume is very low. Can someone help me to fix the problem ?

    Hello Kishore1022,
    It sounds like you have a new album downloaded and the tracks all have a very low volume. I recommend checking to see if Sound Check is enabled in the Music settings.
    iPad User Guide
    http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad99f37037
    Go to Settings > Music to set options for Music, including:
    Sound Check (to normalize the volume level of your audio content)

    Hi saintmary82,
    If you are having a hard time hearing people through the receiver, take a look at the article below for some suggestions to get it sorted out. Start with cleaning the receiver and making sure your iPhone is up to date. If you continue to have issues, then you may want to contact Apple Support for further assistance.

  • I am using Quicken 2007 (16.1.4) and had no problems before upgrading to OS 10.10 Yosemite.  When attempting to download security updates from my financial institutions (UBS and Fidelity), I get the following error OL-290.  Any fixes?

    I am using Quicken 2007 (16.1.4) and had no problems before upgrading to OS 10.10 Yosemite.  When attempting to download security updates from my financial institutions (UBS and Fidelity), I get the following error:  Quicken could not connect to the server.  Please try again later.  [OL-290]  I understand this is because of a mismatch between SSL certificates at the financial institutions and Apple's SSL certificate included with OS 10.10 Yosemite.  Any fixes to this issue?

    I have the same problem but Q for Mac 2015 does not meet my needs. Is there a fix for this problem?

  • Been trying to access any service iTunes has, but am stopped with, "The Folder Cannot Be Found." Any fixes?

    Hello. I've been trying to use any of the functions in iTunes, but to no avail. I seem to be stumped with the window that keeps popping up, telling me, "The Folder Cannot Be Found." Any advice?

    Backup catalogs wouldn't have helped with this problem anyway, but naturally, you shouldn't delete backup catalogs for a while.
    The solution to reconnecting the folders is given here: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

  • My iphone doesnt rings at the time of call,and it notifies me after the call is ended,is this any hardware error or should i change any setting

    actually smetimes i dint get any notification about new call,i mean it doesnt rings nor it notifies,and i get a miss call at the end of call and that also only light blinks..

    You mean HOME button, right?  There is no "menu button" on any iPhone.
    Since you already said that the ring/silent switch is set to ring, check the following settings:
    Settings > Sounds > Ringer and Alerts > Volume slider set to loudest?
    Settings > Sounds > Vibrate > ON?
    Settings > Sounds > Ringtone > correct ringtone set?
    If the above settings are correct and phone still doesn't ring and vibrate, you need to do the basic troubleshooting steps AS NEEDED (described in detail in the User Guide):
    Restart phone
    Reset phone - press both home and sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears.
    Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
    Restore phone in iTunes as new, without using a backup.
    If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware failure that needs evaluation by Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your location.

  • Please advice. The highest volume became much lower after software upgrade (to 10.3.1.1565) last night.

    Please advice if this problem can be solved. I have tried all settings. When testing in BBVE, it rings much louder. Problem appeared only after upgrade. Same issue has my friend with his Q10. Please help. I miss a lot of calls, because I don't hear the phone ringing.
    Thanks in advance.

    i guess you could put the aiport utility app on your iphone, click on the aiport express there, it will show you how many devices are connected to it and the mac addresses of those devices.

  • Installed Yosemite and iPhoto 9.6. A lot of my photos are much too dark now and the colour is not right. Any fix available? I did a backup prior to the new installs.

    Installed Yosemite and iPhoto 9.6. A lot of my photos are now too dark and the colour is way off from the originals. Any suggestions to correct this mess. I did a backup prior to installing Yosemite and iPhoto 9.6.

    Check the monitor settings in the System/Displays/Color preference pane.  You may have to change the color profile used or calibrate the monitor. 
    Also check the System/Accessibility preference pane to see if the Increase contrast checkbox is checked. If it is check it and see if there's any improvement.
