I can’t hear my phone calls
If you cant hear the ringer of the calls, that is there to tell you a call is coming in, this would be an issue with your loudspeaker not functioning, which can be caused by a few different things.
- your volume switch could be set to silent. The switch on the left above your volume controls, changes the volume from whatever it is set at, to silent. this happens a lot of times at my store, and switching this helps quite frequently.
- Settings. make sure your loudspeaker volume is not set to zero.
- Run a hard reset. (Hold the home and power buttons together for 15 seconds or until you see the apple logo on your screen.
- There could be a blown speaker, in which case, replacing the speaker will fix the issue.
- There could be a failure in your charge flex, which houses the speaker, in which case replacing that flex will fix your issue.
- The other possible failure is a processing failure in your mother board. replacing the motherboard is quite expensive, but the fix to this issue.
If you cant hear the voice ofthe callers in your calls, this would be an issue with your earspeaker not functioning, which can be caused by a few different things.
- Your earspeaker could be grimed up. in which case, i would run through a cleanout of the speaker grill. 99% isopropyl, and a thurough scrub of a clean toothbrush should clear away the earspeaker grill enough to allow sound through again. -earspeaker damage; your earspeaker could have suffered trauma from impact, water, magnetism or something else. replacing this would fix the issue. -Sensor flex; The sensor flex could be failing, which houses the earspeaker. if this is failing, replacing it will fix the issue
- The other possible failure is a processing failure in your mother board. replacing the motherboard is quite expensive, but the fix to this issue.
