iPhone5 No sound unless I have headphone in 64GB

I agree upon the Q-tip solution.

However, if such a thing isn't available, take a small piece of toilet paper and roll it into a stick and use that instead. Worked for me after having dropped my iPhone 5 into a lake ...😮

Wow, this totally worked for me!! Definitely should try the q-tip before freaking out. Awesome! :-)

OH MY GOD! I had this happen to me, pretty embarrassing but I dropped my iPhone in the toilet :/ I found a step here that helped greatlyhttp://iphonenosound.com/iphone-has-no-sound-after-dropping-in-water-toilet-wet/ I didn't have any rice on stand by so used some paper towels and put it in the cupboard for 10 hours. There was also some moisture droplets in the lens of the iPhone what thankfully were soaked up. Hope this helps!

Try to see if there are any fine fabric material or dirt trap deep inside the jack plug and if so, try to remove them out. I did that and my iPhone 5S earpiece speaker and loudspeaker was working normally again.

TOTALLY worked!!!! Thanks!

I was having same problem with iphone 5c 32 GB. No sounds, all of the sudden. No music, clicks, locks, alarms, texts, nothing. What i did that worked was put the headphone jack, halfway in and then tilted it slightly to drag the end against in the inside of the female port. i did this twice and it must have disconnected a contact or something because it instantly started working.

also important to not that my phone WAS recognizing when the headphones were AND were not plugged in. while plugged in and changing the volume it would say "headphones" while unplugged and changing the volume it would say "ringer." so i thought it was not a headphone issue, i was wrong. Hope this helps.

This fixed my issue. Thanks

I had the same problem. Caused me headache as I can hear the sound of notifications for calls & messages.

As suggested by many, I used a Q-tip. However, the tip need to be squeezed to make it a bit smaller to fit into the headphone jack. It can be a little tight to push it in. Push it in deep & give it a little bit of twist & pull it back out & try pressing the volume button & if thing goes well, it will show 'volume' instead of 'headphone' when adjusting the volume.

Thank you Q-tip. You did saved me some money from going to the store and have it fix!

Just wanted to say, it’s 2017 and I just fixed my daughters phone with a q-tip. Lol
