When using the phone, I cannot hear except through the speaker phone. Phone is iPhone 4 under warranty. Will a reset or restore fix this or do I need to go to Apple store

When using the phone, I must use the speakerphone in order to hear. Does this require a visit to the Apple store or will a reset or restore possibly fix?

Try this before calling Apple or going to the store.
Open iTunes, and restore the device as NEW. Then test making some calls, if it works, GREAT if not then call AppleCare or an Apple store for an appointment.
Based on experience a restore fixes this issue 99.9% of the time. The .1% is hardware issue based the rest is software based issue

Using Garageband and I cannot hear previously recorded tracks on headphones. Prefs are set to output on EMU0404 my audio device - this did work but now is not working.

I am using Garageband and I cannot hear the previously recorded tracks on my headphones. I am using an audio input/output device, EMU0404 - this was previously working fine but stopped. All cables check out OK and so does the unit - I have updated to the latest version of Garageband but this did not help. Any suggestion?

Hi Christoph,
I cannot see anything wrong with the EMU0404. This is what puzzels me ... Garageband looks OK - headphones are OK - EMU looks OK.
Thanks anyway
Paul

My settings in the AppStore only allow me to search for iPad only apps or iPhone only, not both. How do I fix this?

I have been having trouble downloading apps that are on the the store but not iPad exclusive or iPhone exclusive. So apps available on both devices are not available to me

Are you sure?
An App that appears in the iPad Store, for example, may be useable on the iPhone. If it is, there would be a small "+" sign in the upper left of the price (or free) indicator.

Every time I make a call or I'm receiving a call my phone is extremely static i can't hear the person on the other line and the person on the other line cannot hear anything They say that they hear a lot of static now my videos when I play a video on YouTube for instance works just fine Siri works just fine. I can't make a call or receive a call whatsoever because all I hear is static and I haven't dropped the phone in water nothing has really happened this literally happened overnight

This is a wireless carrier issue. The fact that the speaker & microphone work properly for other apps is a great indicator that your device is fine.
Contact your wireless carrier about your call quality issue.

Callers cannot hear me on the phone

I've had a problem with my Samsung Galaxy SIII almost since I purchased it a few months back. When on a phone call, people cannot hear me unless I use an external headset or Bluetooth. Occasionally using speakerphone works, but as time goes on, that works less frequently. Please help!

KilroyLeges,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I am sorry to hear of your troubles with your device. We certainly want you to always have a working phone. It sounds like you have a broken internal speaker. Are you still under warranty or have insurance on the device? Is their any damage to the phone? If none, then you should be able to get a replacement device. You can try to do a factory reset to see if the issue is possibly stemming from an internal application issue, but more then like it is from the speaker. Keep us updated on this information so we can figure out the next steps to take.
Thank you,

When I make call I cannot hear the sound from the built in speaker. I need to switch on the loudspeaker or I have to plug in the headphone. What is the solution?

IPhone 6. While talking on the phone, email interferes w/audio for other party. Email message pops-up on the screen and the other party cannot hear me until I click "close" & remove the message. Ideas??

Alex, thanks for the reply but it did not answer my question. I only want to turn off notifications & interruptions while I am on the phone. For this desired result, the only way the Do Not Disturb feature would help is if I manually turned it on before each phone conversation. Since my phone rings at random times, this is not possible. Basically, I just want to "opt out" of call-waiting. When I had a landline I never had call waiting. I don't want to be interrupted. But beyond that, even if I am being interrupted why are these notifications preventing the other party from hearing my voice?

My 4s is having a problem with person on the other end cannot hear me or my voice is garbled. I have to hold the phone in a very specific place to my face for them to hear me.

For about two months my iphone 4s has been having problems with people I call not being able to hear me or understand what I am saying. I can get them to hear my by adjusting the position of the phone on my face, it is a very narrow space and I dont get it just right the receiving party cannot hear me.
I have read similar discussions with no real fix to the problems. I have cleanout every orifice of the phone, turn it off and on, reboot to no improvement.
Any other suggests.

HT204387 When I connect my Iphone 5C to Blue tooth it gets connected but only I can hear incoming voice. The called party cannot hear my voice. may i have the solution please.

I have just bought this expensive phone. I tried connecting to Bluetooth car kit. It gets connected but only incoming voice can be heard. No voice goes out from Iphone.
I also tried connecting to Samsung Bluetooth but the problem is same. There is only in coming communication and no out going.. But both the Blue tooth devices works fine with my Samsung SII.
A working solution help will be very juch appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'm having the same problem. I had a plantronics 975 (which I lost, sadly). When connected, the ringer would always be routed through the bluetooth and the iPhone's external speaker. When in silent mode, the iPhone would only vibrate, but I could still hear the ringer in the bluetooth.
I just bought a new Plantronics Voyager+. Now when it's connected, all sounds are routed to the earpiece - including the taps, etc. The iPhone's speaker doesn't ring at all, unless the bluetooth is disconnected or powered off. I'd really like to be able to hear both, like I was before. This is an iPhone 3G running iOS 4 (latest version, not sure what it is exactly). Haven't updated software/firmware in between bluetooths, just changed the earpiece.

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.
