It only works when it wants to anyone know how to fix this. iRepair said the phone is 100%..
Hey there mahmoud.qaadan,
It sounds like you are making calls or receiving them but the other party cannot hear you even though the microphones work in other apps on your phone. I would start by quitting all the running apps on your device:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that and restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If it persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
And restore it from your backup with this article:
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

When I ring someone from my iPhone 4 they can't hear me sometimes and other times they can hear me fine. This has only started happening since I updated to iOS 6 it was perfect the day before.
Good news! I believe I have fixed my phone!!
A friend of mine was having the same problem that I was having where you could hear other people but they couldn't hear you.
We fixed the problem by redownloading the 4.2.1 update. 4th post down on this page: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1052794&page=5 is a list of links to the update files. I downloaded the one for my phone and did a restore (from a backup) after downloading the file and double clicking it so iTunes opens. Since I've done this my phone has been working perfectly again!
It might take you a few tries, it took my friend 3 tries until his worked right and it worked for me on the first try. I'm guessing something was screwing up during the download. -
I have never dropped my iPhone before and when I take a video and or send it to a friend they can't hear it and either can I. I was wondering if apple would replace it by sending me a new iPhone or if it would cost money to fix?

Regarding Facetime on my Ipad. I get started on a call and after 10 or 15 minutes I cannot hear whom I am talking to. They can still hear me and I still have picture on the screen but my sound stops working.
Why can't we use Acrobat Pro for mobile devices? Save a whole lot of headaches!!! Now I have to return this subscription.

When I make a call, I can hear the person on the other end but they can't hear me. It's not the mic bc face time or voice recorder are not affected. I can't even use my headphones or Bluetooth to get around the problem. This has stumped 2 geniuses, they just try to swap it out for $150.
I am having the same issue with my iPhone 4. I can hear everyone but they can't hear me. Visited Apple Store and they said speakers were out, both bottom mic and top one for speaker phone. Said they were busted. Reloaded all software and didn't work. Got in parking lot and worked for 1 call. Now it's out again. Wanted $150 for new phone, haven't done it yet. don't know what to do.

I have an iphone 4 and cannot get my mute off when I am using Facetime. I can hear them, but they can't hear me. When I touch the mute button, nothing happens. Can someone please tell me how to fix this?
the mute button is a switch you need to flip, not touch. if you look at it and see color, its on.

NNeed help I connect my iPhone 5s to Bluetooth in my 2015 GMC Terrain. When I make a call i can hear them but they can't hear me. Anyone else have this issue? How did you resolve it. Other phones work fine, just not my phone.
Hello Sandylynn,
After reviewing your post, it sounds like you can connect the device with Bluetooth and make and receive calls but they dont hear you. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch - Apple Support
People can't hear you during a phone
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a nice day,

when i call someone i can not hear the phone ring or the people talking. They can not hear me either. what i do notice if i select speaker then i can hear them through the speaker phone only
If there's an Apple store nearby make an appointment with the genius bar to have it checked. Be sure to sync it and back it up, as well as import your photos and videos to your computer and back up your contacts separately (such as by sync them with iCloud) in case it needs to be replaced.

when making a phone call on my iphone,I can hear the person that I am calling but they can not hear my voice
My first new iphone4 was received and installed complete.
Nothing to hear when i was calling, only when I used loudspeaker.
complete reset and reprogrammed Iphone, same result.
Called Apple support and received a new Iphone4 next day.
Updated and programmed.
It works.
2 weeks ago My son's iphone4, same problem, could only call with loudspeaker??
Anyone an Idea. -
Does anyone have any suggestions??? I can hear the caller, but they can't hear me!
Here's the problem I faced. I have a iPhone 4 with AT&T. I have the latest iOS 5.0.1. When on a voice call the other party was unable to hear my voice. The other party couldn't hear me even if I used the white ear buds that came with the phone or even on speaker phone. All other features of the phone worked. I could even Facetime, record voice memos and use Voice Control. So I knew it wasn't a hardware problem. AT&T installed a new SIM card. Apple had me reset everthing and even do a restore. I even went to an Apple store and an Apple Genius couldn't figure out why only phone calls didn't work. He ran a diagnostics on the phone and everything checked out. His only option was to offer to sell me a replacement phone for $149, since mine was out of warranty. So today I continued my search for an answer and came to this page (https://discussions.apple.com/message/16912532#16912532) and noticed the little green checkmark under the "More like This" section for "Re: iOS 5 Bluetooth Bug". So I thought to myself, if theres a connection on this page, maybe it is my problem. It was worth a shot at least. So I turned Bluetooth off on my phone and now the other party can again hear my voice again on phone calls. All this and I resolved my own problem and didn't have to spend $149. CRAZY!

When I make a call, I can hear the other person but they can't hear me? Tried everything. Took it to the local ATT store and all they could tell me is it shouldn't be happening and to take it to an apple store? Any ideas?
Try to isolate the issue. Use earphone and if the issue still happens then it might be the phone issue.
- If earphone works fine then it may be the mic on the iPhone. Try cleaning the debris on the iPhone. Finally a restore of the device and try to set it as a new device. Tha will isolate if it is a software or hardware issue.
- You can take the phone to Apple store once you have tried all this. -

Can someone please help? Recently just had my iPhone 4S reconnected. I've now waited the 24 hours that you need to wait till everything goes back to normal. However on a phone call I can hear whoever I'm calling but they can't hear me?
i had the same problem a few weeks ago and i had only had my 3g iphone for a few weeks. It was as if i was on permanent mute. I could hear others fine, but they couldn't hear me, even if i used speakerphone or even a bluetooth.
i took it to an apple store and they did a real quick test (they first did a system restore, then they took my phone and tried calling another employee). Once they validated it wasn't working, they replaced my phone quickly with no questions asked. Just make sure to back up everything on I-Tunes before you go in so that you dont lose any info. might want to do the restore before you go in, as well, otherwise you'll have to wait for them to do it at the store, which takes them 15 mins or so.
Hope this helps. -

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
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.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the jack yourself

I can hear people but they can't hear me
I can hear people but they can't hear me
Usually issues that have to do with Call audio, dropped calls etc, need to have the SIM Card/service ruled out first.
Take the SIM card out of your phone and put it in another to see if issue persists. If it does then its something with your location/service and you need to contact your service provider.
If it does not persist in the other phone then you will want to do a reset and then a restore if issue persists.
#1: Reset: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
#2: Restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Also a simple phone restart will fix 9/10 issues like that.
