SOLVED..

I've encountered sound problems in the past as well like occasional absence of sms notifications, muted unlock sound etc. I found that it is a software problem of sorts. Try reset the phone or do a restore. That should fix it.

Switch off your iphone, plug in and out your earsbud for 3 time and on it

That is weird... Is that really works??

any other ways other than restore..too lazy to do it and install the apps and games again..

Restore with backup I mean. No need a clean restore. It's not as bad

Added on November 23, 2008, 5:28 pmdefinitely not that..dont u think i would have noticed it if the phone was in silent mode..besides some of the games still have sounds and it will still ring if theres an incoming call..

ringtones got sound..

i'm using winterboard to apply themes..but all these while those themes got sound..all of a sudden last night no sounds..except for certain games and ringtones..

I last time did encountered a problem like u..

I just plugged in and out with my earphone then the problem get resolved.

It seems like ur speaker is working, maybe software or settings failure?

Most possible polution is in 2nd post of this thread. If you gave it a try at 12 this afternoon it may have already been solved a long time ago. ...

i tried that already..i wished it was that easy..my last resort is just restore..

hey guys..im a newbie to iphone 3g.just got it few days ago.
wanna ask y isit that my speaker bottom left speaker is louder than my bottom right speaker?
both when the phone is ringing and play song.
why ha?any idea how 2 solve it?

FYI, the LEFT one is the only speaker....and the RIGHT one is actually a mic....

oh..thx man.then the volume is quite soft even u max it.rite?

@Walla07

pls open ur own thread or read the pinned topic if u have any questions..pls dont hijack my thread..thx

hmmm... both my left and right speakers are of the same magnitude. perhaps your unit is faulty?

ahh...my right speaker don't have sound at all, perhaps it's faulty...lolx

sorry bro!

same as mine, left is speaker and right is a mic so mic r not suppose to produce sound sound sound s...o...u...n..ddddd

I have that problem sometimes, i just reboot or respring and tadaaa .. sounds is back on ..

Or just opening iTunes and play any songs inside will help too sometimes ..

oops. pardon me >.<

TS, since I'm not with 2.1FW, I may be wrong but it's not hurt to give it a try. How about changing another theme or use the default theme to rectify whether the sound problem is still the same.

Sorry, I was trying to be naughty..

i've tried respring..reboot..everything..still the same..

maybe i'll try with itunes when i get back home..

my iphone speaker sound is broken sound..

You still haven't tried restoring your phone ar bro?

A similar problem happens to my 2.2 got ringtones but when answer a phone call no sound have to put on speaker or using bluetooth.
When I press the volume button instead of ringer it appears as headphones ringer.
ipod speaker no sound but when insert earphone got sound, no clicking sound when pressing keyboard and no unlock sound too.

Solution: Tried insert the headphone jack many times still the same. on off phone still the same. Hard reset also still the same.

At last resort- reset all content and settings- it took almost 2 hours. JB again. At last the sound came back to normal.

It works with my phone it worth a try..

thx for the tips bro..

anyways problem solved by restoring..

thx everyone for the help..
