Why does my speaker phone come on while on car bluetooth

I noticed that my speaker phone will come on while on call via bluetooth in my car.  The speaker portion doesn't come on but the mic does. I noticed this as my wife said you sound really far away. So I looked at my phone and the speaker phone simple to the left of the speaker phone button showed the little speaker. Why is this all of a sudden a problem?  It would appear the mic is on also that's why I sound so far away. But the "speaker" was coming thru the speakers via bluetooth.
IPhone 5s and 2013 Honda Odyssey

The proximity sensor is detecting your face/ear and turning on speaker mode.  If you have a screen protector then remove it.  Try holding the phone differently when you bring it up to your face

  • When headset is inserted, why does sound continue to come from the speaker?

    When headset is inserted, why does sound continue to come from the speaker?

    Sure your inserting the headset into the Headphone Out port and not the In port..?
    Also what headset....?
    Most PC based headset with built in mic's will not work without using a device like the Griffin iMic.

    Why does a different number come up when i messaging to other i phones? My friends keep responding to my imessage with 'who is this' and apparently it comes from another number-not my usual number like texts...

    Thanks. The number shown against 'phone' is not my number. But it is the number my friend showed me that was coming up when she got my mgs.... Still confused!

  • Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears?

    Why does the apple icon come on then off then a white screen appears? 

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    why does a text banner pop up while in a text converstaion? only the sound alerted before iOS 6.

    but that only started with iOS 6. prior, the text tone would sound when you were in a different conversation. I like the banner but it's annoying when I'm already in the text screen.... understand the question?

  • Why does the EEvents message come up every time the computer is opened after being shut off?

    Why does the EEvents message come up every time the computer is opened after being shut off?

    You need to check the software you run.
    Some officially supported and sold Mac versions of software use Wine for porting in some fashion or another.  If some program you are running is spawning these Wine processes, its probably buggy and not shutting down correctly.
    How to figure out which are Wine and which are not...?
    Well if its a Cider ported game, you just see if there is a Cider logo on the game.
    If its Wineskin ported, theres no super easy way to tell, depending on how much its been modified, but you can look inside the app (right click and "Show Package Contents") and go to Contents/MacOS and see if Wineskin executable is in there.  Unless its a very old version of Wineskin it shouldn't be able to hang like that without major issues int he Windows software running in it, and I don't know any any company would release it if it was that buggy.
    If its WineBottler Ported, you'll notice quickly because it launches X11 and runs the windows under X11... of course not all X11 apps are Wine, but if you have a program that launches and runs in X11.app then you can look inside it at Contents/MacOS to see if its Wine related.
    It could also be Crossover, or a Crossover port of software... you'd have to dig around inside of its app too to see if it looked like one of those.

  • Why does my I-Phone 4 calendar only show apptmnts from the last 90 days?  How can I see appointments prior to then?

    Why does my I-Phone 4 calendar only show apptmnts from the last 90 days?  How can I see appointments from prior to then?

    The Sync setting only appears if you are syncing your calendar with iCloud.  If you are syncing them to another service (such as Google) you would need to go your account with that service and see if you can change the setting there.
    If you are syncing your calendar with iCloud, you should see the Sync setting, and be able to tap and change it.

  • WHY DOES MY i PHONE CRASH iTUNES

    Why does my I phone Crash I tunes

    Alright so mostlikely its going to be 2 things, Either the Apple mobile Device Service, or the Driver that is installed..
    Disconnect phone- close iTunes
    If you open up your services program - WIndows 7 = Click Start , Type Services, click the gear icon that says services, Locate apple mobile device service -click on it, then click stop service on the left side of the screen, then wait 20 seconds, now click Start service.
    Reopen itunes - Reconnect phone - does it work? if not its gonna be the driver.
    You will want to open up device manager - Click start - Right click on my computer -click properties - Click hardware tab -click device manager -Check under Universal Serial Bus controllers, Imaging Devices, Portalble devices, and Human interfaces - for anything that says "Apple" iPhone" iPhone Recovery" anything along those lines.
    If you locate it Right click on it - click update driver -
    Select "Browse my computer for driver software."
    Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer."
    Click the Have Disk button. Note: If the Have Disk option is not present, choose a device category such as Mobile Phone or Storage Device if listed, and then click next. The Have Disk button should then appear.
    Click the Browse button and navigate toC:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.
    Note: If using a 64-bit version of Windows Vista or Windows 7, navigate toC:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers.
    Double-click the "usbaapl"file. (This file will be called"usbaapl64"if you have a 64-bit version of Windows. If you don't see" usbaapl64" here, or if there is no Drivers folder, look in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers instead).
    Click Open in the Have Disk window. Then, click Next and then Click Finish. Windows will install the driver.

  • Why does my mrs phone keep getting my contacts from iCloud and more importantly how do i stop it!?

    Hey guys an gals sorry if this has been asked 100's times before but...
    Why does my mrs phone keep getting my contacts from iCloud and more importantly how do i stop it!?
    Thanks for your help :-)

    Thanks for you reply, she already has her own account and wants to back her own contacts up to the cloud, we have tried turning both contacts off in icloud settings, also deleting from phone when prompted, then, we also deleted all her icloud backups to start a fresh. However soon as she turns contacts back on.. Bam they re appear. We also have ipad in the mix so we did the same to that, turned off and deleted contacts on there also to no avail. Somehow they are linked to my acount just cant work out how or where?

  • Speaker Phone Comes on everytime on Andriod Phone

    I'm working on a ZTE Tablet with the following Specks
    Android version 2.2
    Baseband version V9B01
    Kernel version 2.6.32.9-perf zte-kernel@Zdroid-SMT
    Build number v9_GENERICV1.0.0B06
    IMEI: 355913040237153
    The problem with the phone is that whenever you make or receive a call the speaker phone comes on and there is now way to turn it off. I can't find anything in the settings and I already did a hard reset on the phone.

    For how long you're facing this with your device? Is it a new device?
    I thing it'shardware issue. Consult with your carrier support service and if you can claim warranty then do it ASAP.
